Upon the effectiveness of the second amended and restated certificate of incorporation of SRAC, the par value of SRAC Class A common stock will be $0.00001 per share.

(4)      Calculated pursuant to Rule 457(f) under the Securities Act to be $126,832.81, which is equal to 0.0001091 multiplied by the proposed maximum aggregate offering price of shares of SRAC Class A common stock of $1,162,536,978.40.

(5)      An amount equal to $126,832.81 was previously paid on November 2, 2020.

The Registrant hereby amends this Registration Statement on such date or dates as may be necessary to delay its effective date until the Registrant shall file a further amendment which specifically states that this Registration Statement shall thereafter become effective in accordance with Section 8(a) of the Securities Act or until this Registration Statement shall become effective on such date as the Securities and Exchange Commission, acting pursuant to said Section 8(a), may determine.

PRELIMINARY PROXY STATEMENT/CONSENT SOLICITATION STATEMENT/PROSPECTUS

SUBJECT TO COMPLETION, DATED DECEMBER 14, 2020

STABLE ROAD ACQUISITION CORP.
1345 Abbot Kinney Boulevard
Venice, California 90291

Dear Stable Road Acquisition Corp. Stockholders:

On October 7, 2020, Stable Road Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SRAC”), entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as it may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”) by and among SRAC, Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Momentus”), Project Marvel First Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SRAC (“First Merger Sub”), and Project Marvel Second Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a wholly owned subsidiary of SRAC (“Second Merger Sub”). If (i) the Merger Agreement is adopted by Momentus’ stockholders, (ii) the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the issuance of SRAC Class A common stock to be issued as the merger consideration, are approved by SRAC’s stockholders, and (iii) the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are subsequently completed, First Merger Sub will merge with and into Momentus, with Momentus surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of SRAC, immediately followed by Momentus merging with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub surviving such merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of SRAC (collectively, the “Mergers”; and SRAC following such Mergers, the “Combined Company”).

The aggregate merger consideration payable to the holders of Momentus equity interests (including convertible securities) will be paid in shares of newly issued Combined Company Class A common stock (or securities exercisable for Combined Company Class A common stock) having a value equal to $1,131,000,000, minus Momentus’ indebtedness for borrowed money as of the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”), plus the amount of Momentus’ cash and cash equivalents as of the Closing, plus the aggregate exercise price of all Momentus options and warrants outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing. The Combined Company Class A common stock issued (or reserved for issuance upon exercise of options or warrants) in connection with the Mergers will be based on a deemed value of $10.00 per share.

In addition, pursuant to Subscription Agreements that SRAC entered into with certain investors substantially concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, immediately prior to the consummation of the Mergers, such investors will purchase an aggregate of 17,500,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock for $10.00 per share.

SRAC’s units, Class A common stock and public warrants are publicly traded on the Nasdaq Capital Market (“Nasdaq”) under the ticker symbols “SRACU,” “SRAC” and “SRACW,” respectively. We intend to apply to list the Combined Company Class A common stock, including shares of the Combined Company Class A common stock issued in connection with the Mergers, and SRAC’s public warrants on Nasdaq under the symbols “MNTS” and “MNTSW” upon the Closing. SRAC will not have units traded following the Closing. Following the Closing, SRAC intends to change its name to Momentus Inc.

SRAC will hold a special meeting of stockholders (the “Special Meeting”) to consider matters relating to the proposed Mergers. SRAC and Momentus cannot complete the Mergers unless (i) SRAC’s stockholders consent to the approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the issuance of SRAC Class A common stock to be issued as the merger consideration, and (ii) Momentus’ stockholders consent to the adoption and approval of the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. SRAC and Momentus are sending you this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus to ask you to vote in favor of these and the other matters described in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

In light of the ongoing developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic and to protect the health of SRAC stockholders and the community, the Special Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders conducted via live audio webcast. You will be able to attend the Special Meeting by visiting and entering your control number as further explained in the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

The above matters are more fully described in the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. We urge you to read carefully the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus in its entirety, including the Annexes and the accompanying financial statements of SRAC and Momentus.

The record date for the Special Meeting is             , 2021. Only stockholders of record at the close of business on that date may vote at the Special Meeting or any adjournment thereof. A complete list of SRAC stockholders of record entitled to vote at the Special Meeting will be available for 10 days before the Special Meeting at SRAC’s principal executive offices for inspection by stockholders during ordinary business hours for any purpose germane to the Special Meeting. The eligible stockholder list will also be available at the Special Meeting for examination by any stockholder of record present at such meeting.

We are providing the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and accompanying proxy card to SRAC’s stockholders in connection with the solicitation of proxies to be voted at the Special Meeting and at any adjournments of the Special Meeting. Information about the Special Meeting, the Business Combination and other related business to be considered by SRAC’s stockholders at the Special Meeting is included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Whether or not you plan to attend the Special Meeting, we urge all of SRAC’s stockholders to read the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, including the Annexes and the accompanying financial statements of SRAC and Momentus, carefully and in their entirety.

After careful consideration, the SRAC Board has approved the Business Combination and recommends that SRAC’s stockholders vote “FOR” adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Business Combination, including the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Mergers, and “FOR” all other proposals presented to SRAC’s stockholders in the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. When you consider the SRAC Board’s recommendation of these proposals, you should keep in mind that SRAC’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that may conflict with your interests as a stockholder. Please see the sections titled The Business Combination and the Merger AgreementInterests of Certain SRAC Persons in the Business Combination” and “SRAC Special Meeting of StockholdersRecommendation to SRAC Stockholders” for additional information.

In connection with SRAC’s initial public offering (the “IPO”), the initial stockholders of SRAC agreed to vote all shares of SRAC Class B common stock and any shares of SRAC Class A common stock purchased during or after the IPO in favor of the Business Combination. Currently, the initial stockholders and SRAC PIPE Partners LLC own approximately 21.7% of SRAC’s issued and outstanding common stock, including all of the outstanding shares of SRAC Class B common stock.

Pursuant to SRAC’s existing charter, a holder of SRAC’s public shares may request that SRAC redeem all or a portion of such stockholder’s public shares for cash if the Business Combination is consummated. You will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed if, prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on             , 2021 (two business days before the Special Meeting), you tender your shares physically or electronically and submit a request in writing that SRAC redeem your public shares for cash to SRAC’s transfer agent.

Holders of units issued in the IPO (“public units”) must elect to separate the underlying shares (“public shares”) and warrants (“public warrants”) prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If holders hold their public units in an account at a brokerage firm or bank, holders must notify their broker or bank that they elect to separate the public units into the underlying public shares and public warrants, or if a holder holds public units

 

Table of Contents

registered in its own name, the holder must contact the transfer agent directly and instruct it to separate the public units. Public stockholders may elect to redeem their public shares even if they vote “for” the Business Combination Proposal. If the Business Combination is not consummated, the public shares will not be redeemed for cash. If a public stockholder properly exercises its right to redeem its public shares and timely delivers its shares to the transfer agent, SRAC will redeem each public share for a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account established in connection with the IPO (the “Trust Account”), calculated as of two business days prior to the Closing, including interest not previously released to SRAC to pay its income taxes, divided by the number of then issued and outstanding public shares. For illustrative purposes, as of October 23, 2020, this would have amounted to approximately $10.03 per public share. If a public stockholder exercises its redemption rights, then it will be exchanging its redeemed public shares for cash and will no longer own such shares. See the section titled SRAC Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights” in the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus for a detailed description of the procedures to be followed if you wish to redeem your public shares for cash.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a holder of public shares, together with any affiliate of such public stockholder or any other person with whom such public stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming its public shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% of the public shares without SRAC’s prior consent. Accordingly, if a public stockholder, alone or acting in concert or as a group, seeks to redeem more than 15% of the public shares, then any such shares in excess of that 15% limit would not be redeemed for cash unless such stockholder first obtains SRAC’s prior consent.

The Merger Agreement provides that the obligation of Momentus to consummate the Business Combination is conditioned on the amount in the Trust Account, the proceeds from PIPE Investment and any alternative financing with respect to the PIPE Investment, on terms and conditions no less favorable in the aggregate than the PIPE Investment (after deducting the cash amounts required to satisfy SRAC Share Redemptions), equaling or exceeding $250,000,000. This condition to closing in the Merger Agreement is for the sole benefit of Momentus and may be waived by it. If this condition becomes incapable of being satisfied at the Closing and continues to be incapable of being satisfied at the Closing for a period of 10 business days (after giving effect to any alternative financing that may be arranged with respect to the PIPE Investment), Momentus may elect not to consummate the Business Combination and may terminate the Merger Agreement.

In no event will SRAC redeem public shares in an amount that would result in its net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) being less than $5,000,001. Holders of public warrants do not have redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination.

The initial stockholders have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to shares of Class B common stock and with respect to any public shares they may have held in connection with the Closing and to convert such shares of Class B common stock into shares of Class A common stock in connection with the Closing. The shares of Class B common stock will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per-share redemption price at the time of the redemptions.

The approval of each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Governance Proposals (on an advisory basis), the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, the CEO Option Grant Proposal, and the Nasdaq Proposal requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the votes cast by holders of outstanding SRAC shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. The approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of SRAC’s shares of common stock entitled to vote thereon. Directors are elected by a plurality of all of the votes cast by holders of SRAC’s outstanding shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon.

Your vote is very important.

Q:     What is being voted on at the Special Meeting?

A:     Below are the proposals on which SRAC stockholders will vote at the Special Meeting.

Proposal No. 1 — The Business Combination Proposal — To consider and vote upon a proposal to approve the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of October 7, 2020 (as it may be amended from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Momentus Inc. (“Momentus”), SRAC, Project Marvel First Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SRAC (“First Merger Sub”), and Project Marvel Second Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of SRAC (“Second Merger Sub”), pursuant to which First Merger Sub will merge with and into Momentus (the “First Merger”), with Momentus being the surviving corporation of the First Merger (the “surviving corporation”), and immediately following the First Merger, the surviving corporation will merge with and into Second Merger Sub (the “Second Merger” and, collectively with the First Merger and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”), with Second Merger Sub being the surviving company of the Second Merger. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Proposal No. 2 — The Charter Amendment Proposal — To consider and act upon a proposal to adopt the proposed Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company attached as Annex B to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus (the “Charter Amendment Proposal”);

The Governance Proposals — To consider and act upon, on a non-binding advisory basis, seven separate governance proposals relating to the following material differences between SRAC’s existing charter and the proposed charter in accordance with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) requirements:

Proposal No. 3A — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to increase the total number of authorized shares of all classes of capital stock from 111,000,000 shares to, following the automatic conversion of all Class B common stock into Class A common stock immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, 270,000,000 shares, which would consist of (a) 250,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and (b) 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock;

Proposal No. 3B — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to require, with respect to any vote to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of any class or classes of stock (but not below the number of shares then outstanding), the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of all the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, and no vote of the holders of the Class A Common Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor.

Proposal No. 3C — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to provide, subject to the special rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock of the Combined Company, that no director may be removed from the Combined Company board except for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (⅔) of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors voting together as a single class;

Proposal No. 3D — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to require the affirmative vote of either a majority of the total number of authorized directors whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships (the “Whole Board”) or the holders of at least two-thirds (⅔) of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, for the adoption, amendment, or repeal any provision of the bylaws (in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of required by applicable law or by the proposed charter of the Combined Company);

Proposal No. 3E — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to require the affirmative vote of either a majority of the board of directors or the holders of two-thirds (⅔) of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company for the adoption, amendment, or repeal of certain provisions of the charter; provided that if two-thirds (⅔) of the Whole Board has approved such amendment or repeal, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company will be required for the amendment or repeal of such provision;

Proposal No. 3F — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to clarify that the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware shall not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of claims arising under the Securities Act; and

Proposal No. 3G — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to authorize all other proposed changes, including, among others, those (i) resulting from the Business Combination, including changing the post-business combination corporate name from “Stable Road Acquisition Corp.” to “Momentus Inc.” and removing certain provisions relating to SRAC’s prior status as a blank check company and SRAC Class B common stock that will no longer apply upon the Closing, or (ii) that are administrative or clarifying in nature, including the deletion of language without substantive effect.

We refer to Proposals No. 3A through 3G collectively as the “Governance Proposals”;

Proposal No. 6 — The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal — To approve and adopt the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “Employee Stock Purchase Plan”) and material terms thereunder (the “Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal”). A copy of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex D.

Proposal No. 7 — The CEO Option Grant Proposal — To approve and adopt a stock option grant and material terms thereunder (the “CEO Option Grant”) to Mikhail Kokorich, the Chief Executive Officer of Momentus, effective upon Closing (the “CEO Option Grant Proposal”). A copy of the award agreement pursuant to which the CEO Option Grant will be made is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex E.

Proposal No. 8 — The Nasdaq Proposal — a proposal to approve, assuming the Business Combination Proposal and the Charter Amendment Proposal are approved and adopted, for purposes of complying with applicable provisions of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635, the issuance of more than 20% of SRAC’s issued and outstanding common stock in connection with the Business Combination and the PIPE Investment, and the related change in control (collectively, the “Nasdaq Proposal” and, together with the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Governance Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and the CEO Option Grant Proposal, the “Proposals”).

Q:     Are the proposals conditioned on one another?

A:     Yes. The Closing is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal are cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Director Election Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and the CEO Option Grant Proposal are conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal. The Governance Proposals are not conditioned on the approval of any of the other Proposals.

Q:     Why is SRAC providing stockholders with the opportunity to vote on the Business Combination?

A:     Under SRAC’s current charter, SRAC must provide all holders of public shares with the opportunity to redeem their public shares upon the consummation of an initial business combination either in conjunction with a tender offer or in conjunction with a stockholder vote. For business and other reasons, SRAC has elected to provide its stockholders with the opportunity to have their public shares redeemed in connection with a stockholder vote rather than a tender offer. Therefore, SRAC is seeking to obtain the approval of its stockholders of the Business Combination Proposal in order to allow its public stockholders to effectuate their SRAC Share Redemptions in connection with the Closing. The approval of SRAC stockholders of the Business Combination Proposal is also a condition to the Closing in the Merger Agreement.

Q:     What will happen in the Business Combination?

A:     Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, and upon the terms and subject to the conditions set forth therein, SRAC will acquire Momentus in a series of transactions we collectively refer to as the “Business Combination.” At the Closing, among other things, First Merger Sub will merge with and into Momentus, with Momentus continuing as the surviving corporation, and Second Merger Sub will merge with and into Momentus, with Second Merger Sub continuing as the surviving company. As a result of the Mergers, at the Closing, SRAC will own 100% of the outstanding equity interests of the surviving company and each share of capital stock, as well as securities convertible or exercisable for shares of capital stock, of Momentus will have been cancelled and converted into the right to receive the Merger Consideration in accordance with the Merger Agreement.

A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex A. For more information about the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination, see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement.”

Q:     What conditions must be satisfied to complete the Business Combination?

A:     There are a number of closing conditions in the Merger Agreement, including the approval by SRAC stockholders of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal. For a summary of the conditions that must be satisfied or waived prior to the Closing, see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — The Merger Agreement — Conditions to the Completion of the Mergers.”

Q:     How will SRAC be managed and governed following the Business Combination?

Following the Closing, it is expected that the current senior management of Momentus will comprise the senior management of the Combined Company, and, assuming the election of the nominees at the Special Meeting as set forth in the Director Election Proposal, the Combined Company’s board of directors will consist of Vincent Deno, Chris Hadfield, Dawn Harms, Edward Horowitz, Brian Kabot, Mikhail Kokorich and David Siminoff. Please see the section titled “Management After the Business Combination.”

Q:     What equity stake will current SRAC stockholders, the PIPE Investors, the initial stockholders and Momentus stockholders hold in SRAC following the consummation of the Transactions?

A:     It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Transactions, assuming no SRAC Share Redemptions (which we refer to as the “no redemption scenario”) and subject to the assumptions set forth below, the concentration of ownership of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Combined Company will be as follows:

Beneficial Owners

 

Ownership Percentage

SRAC’s existing public stockholders (collectively, but excluding any shares issued to such persons in connection with the PIPE Investment)

 

12.2

%

Sponsor and its affiliate, SRAC Partners

 

4.1

%

Momentus’ existing securityholders

 

72.0

%

PIPE Investors (excluding SRAC Partners) (collectively, but excluding any public shares held by such persons)

 

11.7

%

Alternatively, it is anticipated that, upon completion of the Transactions, assuming no SRAC Share Redemptions in excess of the amount required to satisfy the minimum cash condition set forth in the Merger Agreement (which we refer to as the “maximum redemption scenario”) and subject to the assumptions set forth below, the concentration of ownership of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Combined Company will be as follows:

Beneficial Owners

 

Ownership Percentage

SRAC’s existing public stockholders (collectively, but excluding any shares issued to such persons in connection with the PIPE Investment)

 

5.6

%

Sponsor and its affiliate, SRAC Partners

Please see the sections titled “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Consent Solicitation Statement/Prospectus—Ownership after the Closing; Impact of the Business Combination on the Combined Company’s Public Float, Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information and Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” for further information.

Q:     Why is SRAC proposing the Charter Amendment Proposal?

A:     The Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that SRAC is asking its stockholders to approve in connection with the Business Combination provides for, among other things, certain amendments to SRAC’s existing charter. Pursuant to Delaware law and the Merger Agreement, we are required to submit the Charter Amendment Proposal to SRAC’s stockholders for adoption. See the section titled “Proposal No. 2—The Charter Amendment Proposal for additional information.

Q:     Why is SRAC proposing the Governance Proposals?

A:     As required by applicable SEC guidance, SRAC is requesting that its stockholders vote upon, on a non-binding advisory basis, a proposal to approve certain governance provisions contained in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation that materially affect stockholder rights. This separate vote on the Governance Proposals is not otherwise required by Delaware law, but pursuant to SEC guidance, SRAC is required to submit these provisions to its stockholders separately for approval. However, the stockholder vote regarding the Governance Proposals is an advisory vote, and is not binding on SRAC or its Board, in contrast to the vote on the Charter Amendment Proposal, which will be binding on SRAC and its Board. Furthermore, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of the Governance Proposals.

See the section titled “Proposals No. 3A through 3G — The Governance Proposals” for additional information.

Q:     Why is SRAC proposing the Nasdaq Proposal?

A:     SRAC is proposing the Nasdaq Proposal in order to comply with Nasdaq listing rules, which require stockholder approval of certain transactions that result in the issuance of 20% or more of a company’s outstanding voting power or shares of common stock outstanding before the issuance of stock or securities. In connection with the Transactions, SRAC intends to issue (subject to customary terms and conditions, including the Closing) (i) approximately 105,019,873 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock in the Business Combination in both the no redemption and maximum redemption scenarios (3,000,000 of which would immediately be repurchased by SRAC in the no redemption scenario pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement) and (ii) 17,500,000 shares of SRAC Class A common stock in the PIPE Investment. Because SRAC will issue 20% or more of its outstanding voting power and outstanding common stock in connection with the Transactions, it is required to obtain stockholder approval of such issuances pursuant to Nasdaq listing rules. Stockholder approval of the Nasdaq Proposal is also a condition to the Closing in the Merger Agreement. See the section titled “Proposal No. 8 — The Nasdaq Proposal” for additional information.

Q:     What happens if I sell my shares of Class A common stock before the Special Meeting?

A:     The record date for the Special Meeting is earlier than the date that the Business Combination is expected to be completed. If you transfer your shares of Class A common stock after the record date, but before the Special Meeting, unless the transferee obtains from you a proxy to vote those shares, you will retain your right to vote at the Special Meeting. However, you will not be able to seek redemption of your shares of Class A common stock because you will no longer be able to deliver them for cancellation upon the Closing in accordance with the provisions described herein. If you transfer your shares of Class A common stock prior to the record date, you will have no right to vote those shares at the Special Meeting or redeem those shares for a pro rata portion of the proceeds held in the Trust Account.

Q:     What vote is required to approve the Proposals presented at the Special Meeting?

A:     Approval of each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Governance Proposals (on an advisory basis), the Nasdaq Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, and the CEO Option Grant Proposal requires the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy) of the holders of the majority of SRAC’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock entitled to vote and actually cast thereon at the Special Meeting, voting as a single class. Approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy) of the holders of a majority of SRAC’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting, voting as a single class. Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by holders of SRAC’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon. This means that the seven director nominees who receive the most affirmative votes will be elected. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes with respect to the election of directors.

Q:     May our Sponsor, directors, officers, advisors or their affiliates purchase shares in connection with the Business Combination?

A:     In connection with the stockholder vote to approve the proposed Business Combination, our Sponsor, directors, officers, or advisors or their respective affiliates may privately negotiate transactions to purchase shares from stockholders who would have otherwise elected to have their shares redeemed in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules for a per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account. None of our Sponsor, directors, officers or advisors or their respective affiliates will make any such purchases when they are in possession of any material non-public information not disclosed to the seller. Such a purchase would include a contractual acknowledgement that such stockholder, although still the record holder of our shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights, and could include a contractual provision that directs such stockholder to vote such shares in a manner directed by the purchaser. In the event that our Sponsor, directors, officers or advisors or their affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public stockholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling stockholders would be required to revoke their prior elections to redeem their shares. Any such privately negotiated purchases may be effected at purchase prices that are below or in excess of the per share pro rata portion of the Trust Account.

Q:     How many votes do I have at the Special Meeting?

A:     SRAC’s stockholders are entitled to one vote at the Special Meeting for each share of Class A common stock or Class B common stock held of record as of               , 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting. As of the close of business on the record date, there were a combined                outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock.

Q:     What constitutes a quorum at the Special Meeting?

A:     Holders of a majority in voting power of Class A common stock and Class B common stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, constitute a quorum. In the absence of a quorum, the chairman of the meeting has the power to adjourn the Special Meeting. As of the record date for the Special Meeting,                shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, in the aggregate, would be required to achieve a quorum.

Q:     How will SRAC’s Sponsor, directors and officers vote?

A:     In connection with our IPO, we entered into an agreement with our Sponsor and each of SRAC’s directors and officers, pursuant to which each agreed to vote any shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, SRAC, Sponsor, SRAC Partners and Momentus entered into the Sponsor Agreement pursuant to which, among other things, Sponsor and SRAC Partners agreed to support the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including agreeing to vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement at the Special Meeting. Currently, our Sponsor, its affiliate SRAC Partners, and our Sponsor’s directors and officers collectively own approximately 21.7% of our issued and outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, in the aggregate, including all of the founder shares.

Q:     What interests do the current officers and directors have in the Business Combination?

A:     In considering the recommendation of our board of directors to vote in favor of the Business Combination, stockholders should be aware that, aside from their interests as stockholders, our Sponsor and certain of SRAC’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other stockholders generally. These interests include the following, among others:

•        If SRAC does not consummate a business combination by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date), SRAC would (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of SRAC’s remaining stockholders and SRAC’s Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, the 4,136,029 shares of SRAC Class B common stock owned by the Sponsor and the 176,471 shares of SRAC Class B common stock owned by SRAC Partners would be worthless because following the redemption of the public shares, we would likely have few, if any, net assets and because the Sponsor and each of SRAC’s officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if we fail to complete a business combination within the required period. Additionally, in such event, the 495,000 private placement units that the Sponsor paid $4.95 million for will expire worthless. All of SRAC’s officers and directors have a direct or indirect economic interest in such shares and private placement units. The 4,312,500 shares of SRAC Class A common stock that the initial stockholders and SRAC Partners will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $71.2 million based upon the closing price of $16.50 per share of SRAC Class A common stock on Nasdaq on December 11, 2020, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Given such shares of Class A common stock will be subject to certain restrictions,

14

Table of Contents

we believe such shares have less value. The 495,000 private placement units that the Sponsor will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $9.7 million based upon the closing price of $19.50 per unit on Nasdaq on December 11, 2020, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

•        Our Sponsor holds 495,000 private placement units and Cantor owns 50,000 private placement units that would expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated.

•        Our Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 for its founder shares and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, accounting for the transfer of shares to SRAC Partners, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $71.2 million, based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on December 11, 2020.

SRAC’s directors were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination, and in recommending to stockholders that they approve the Business Combination. Stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. For more information, see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Interests of Certain SRAC Persons in the Business Combination.”

Q:     What happens if I vote against the Business Combination Proposal?

A:     Under SRAC’s existing charter, if the Business Combination Proposal is not approved and we do not otherwise consummate an alternative business combination by May 13, 2021, we will be required to dissolve and liquidate the Trust Account by returning the then-remaining funds in such account to our public stockholders.

Q:     Do I have redemption rights?

A:     If you are a holder of public shares, you may elect to have your public shares redeemed for cash at the applicable redemption price per share equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (a) the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account as of two (2) business days prior to the Closing, including interest not previously released to SRAC to pay its taxes, by (b) the total number of then outstanding public shares; provided that SRAC will not redeem any public shares to the extent that such redemption would result in SRAC’s net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) being less than $5,000,001. A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the public shares (the “15% threshold”). Unlike some other blank check companies, other than the net tangible asset requirement and the 15% threshold described above, SRAC has no specified maximum redemption threshold and there is no other limit on the amount of public shares that you can redeem. Holders of SRAC’s outstanding public warrants do not have redemption rights in connection with the Business Combination. SRAC’s Sponsor, directors and officers have agreed to waive their redemption rights with respect to any shares of SRAC’s capital stock they may hold in connection with the Closing, and the founder shares and private placement shares will be excluded from the pro rata calculation used to determine the per share redemption price. For illustrative purposes, based on the fair value of marketable securities held in the Trust Account as of September 30, 2020 of approximately $173 million, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.03. Additionally, shares properly tendered for redemption will only be redeemed if the Business Combination is consummated; otherwise holders of such shares will only be entitled to a pro rata portion of the Trust Account (including interest but net of taxes payable) in connection with the liquidation of the Trust Account or if we subsequently complete a different business combination on or prior to May 13, 2021.

Q:     Will how I vote affect my ability to exercise redemption rights?

A:     No. You may exercise your redemption rights whether you vote your shares of Class A common stock for or against or abstain from voting on the Business Combination Proposal or any other proposal described in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. As a result, the Business Combination can be approved by stockholders who will redeem their shares and no longer remain stockholders.

Table of Contents

Q:     How do I exercise my redemption rights?

A:     In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must (i) if you hold your shares of Class A common stock through units, elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares, (ii) check the box on the enclosed proxy card marked “Stockholder Certification,” and (iii) prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on               , 2021 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting), tender your shares physically or electronically and submit a request in writing that we redeem your public shares for cash to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, at the following address:

Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company
1 State Street Plaza, 30th Floor
New York, New York 10004
Attention: Mark Zimkind
Email: mzimkind@continentalstock.com

Please check the box on the enclosed proxy card marked “Stockholder Certification” if you are not acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with any other stockholder with respect to shares of Class A common stock or Class B common stock. Notwithstanding the foregoing, a public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from seeking redemption rights with respect to his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of the 15% threshold. Accordingly, all public shares in excess of the 15% threshold beneficially owned by a public stockholder or group will not be redeemed for cash. Stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent and time to effect delivery. It is SRAC’s understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. However, SRAC does not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Stockholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their bank, broker or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically.

Holders of outstanding units of SRAC must separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If you hold units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate for such units to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company with written instructions to separate such units into public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the public share certificates back to you so that you may then exercise your redemption rights upon the separation of the public shares from the units.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds your units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your units. Your nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Such written instructions must include the number of units to be split and the nominee holding such units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using The Depository Trust Company’s (“DTC”) DWAC (deposit withdrawal at custodian) system, a withdrawal of the relevant units and a deposit of an equal number of public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your redemption rights upon the separation of the public shares from the units. While this is typically done electronically on the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If you fail to cause your public shares to be separated in a timely manner, you will likely not be able to exercise your redemption rights.

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests and thereafter, with our consent, until the vote is taken with respect to the Business Combination. If you delivered your shares for redemption to the transfer agent and decide within the required timeframe not to exercise your redemption rights, you may request that the transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting our transfer agent at the phone number or address listed under the question “Who can help answer my questions?” below.

Q:     What are the U.S. federal income tax consequences of exercising my redemption rights?

A:     We expect that a U.S. holder (as defined below) that exercises its redemption rights to receive cash from the Trust Account in exchange for its public shares will generally be treated as selling such public shares resulting in the recognition of capital gain or capital loss. There may be certain circumstances in which the redemption may be treated as a distribution for U.S. federal income tax purposes depending on the amount of public shares that a U.S. holder owns or is deemed to own (including through the ownership of public warrants). For a more complete discussion of the U.S. federal income tax considerations of an exercise of redemption rights, see “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations.”

TAX MATTERS ARE COMPLICATED, AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF EXERCISING YOUR REDEMPTION RIGHTS WILL DEPEND ON THE FACTS OF YOUR OWN SITUATION. YOU SHOULD CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISOR AS TO THE SPECIFIC TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE EXERCISE OF REDEMPTION RIGHTS TO YOU IN YOUR PARTICULAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

Q:     If I am a warrant holder, can I exercise redemption rights with respect to my warrants?

A:     No. The holders of our warrants have no redemption rights with respect to our warrants.

Q:     Do I have appraisal rights if I object to the proposed Business Combination?

A:     No. There are no appraisal rights available to holders of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock in connection with the Business Combination.

Q:     What happens to the funds deposited in the Trust Account after the Closing?

A:     If the Business Combination Proposal is approved, SRAC intends to use a portion of the funds held in the Trust Account to pay (i) to stockholders who have properly elected to have their Class A common stock redeemed for cash in accordance with the provisions of SRAC’s governing documents; (ii) for income tax or other tax obligations of SRAC prior to Closing; (iii) to the underwriters of the initial public offering of SRAC with respect to any deferred underwriting compensation, (iv) for any SRAC transaction costs, (v) as repayment of loans and reimbursement of expenses to directors, officers and stockholders of SRAC; and (vi) as payment to stockholders as cash in lieu of the issuance of any fractional shares. The remaining balance in the Trust Account, together with proceeds received from the PIPE Investment that are not used to satisfy SRAC’s obligations in connection with the Business Combination, will be used by the Combined Company for working capital purposes. See the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement” for additional information.

Q:     What happens if the Business Combination is not consummated or is terminated?

A:     There are certain circumstances under which the Merger Agreement may be terminated. See the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — The Merger Agreement — Termination” for additional information regarding the parties’ specific termination rights. In accordance with the existing charter, if an initial business combination is not consummated by May 13, 2021, SRAC will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten (10) business days thereafter subject to lawfully available funds therefor, redeem 100% of the public shares in consideration of a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (A) the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest not previously released to SRAC to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of such net interest to pay dissolution expenses), by (B) the total number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish rights of the public stockholders as stockholders of SRAC (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the remaining stockholders and our board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under the DGCL to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law.

SRAC expects that the amount of any distribution its public stockholders will be entitled to receive upon its dissolution will be approximately the same as the amount they would have received if they had redeemed their shares in connection with the Business Combination, subject in each case to SRAC’s obligations

under the DGCL to provide for claims of creditors and other requirements of applicable law. The initial stockholders have waived any right to any liquidating distributions with respect to the founder shares and private placement shares.

In the event of liquidation, there will be no distribution with respect to SRAC’s outstanding warrants. Accordingly, the warrants will expire worthless.

Q:     When is the Business Combination expected to be consummated?

A:     It is currently anticipated that the Business Combination will be consummated promptly following the Special Meeting; provided that all the requisite stockholder approvals are obtained and other conditions to the Closing have been satisfied or waived. For a description of the conditions for the Closing, see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — The Merger Agreement — Conditions to the Completion of the Mergers.

Q:     What do I need to do now?

A:     You are urged to read carefully and consider the information contained in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, including “Risk Factors” and the annexes, and to consider how the Business Combination will affect you as a stockholder. You should then vote as soon as possible in accordance with the instructions provided in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and on the enclosed proxy card or, if you hold your shares through a brokerage firm, bank or other nominee, on the voting instruction form provided by the broker, bank or nominee.

Q:     How do I vote?

A:     If you were a holder of record of Class A common stock or Class B common stock on             , 2021, the record date for the Special Meeting, you may vote with respect to the proposals in person at the Special Meeting or by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you hold your shares in “street name,” which means your shares are held of record by a broker, bank or other nominee, you should follow the instructions provided by your broker, bank or nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. In this regard, you must provide the record holder of your shares with instructions on how to vote your shares or, if you wish to attend the Special Meeting and vote in person, obtain a proxy from your broker, bank or nominee.

Q:     What will happen if I abstain from voting or fail to vote at the Special Meeting?

A:     At the Special Meeting, SRAC will count a properly executed proxy marked “ABSTAIN” with respect to a particular proposal as present for purposes of determining whether a quorum is present. For purposes of approval, failure to vote or an abstention will have no effect on the Business Combination Proposal, the Governance Proposals, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Director Election Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and the CEO Option Grant Proposal, but will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST the Charter Amendment Proposal.

Q:     What will happen if I sign and submit my proxy card without indicating how I wish to vote?

A:     Signed and dated proxies received by SRAC without an indication of how the stockholder intends to vote on a proposal will be voted “FOR” each proposal presented to the stockholders.

Q:     If I am not going to attend the Special Meeting in person, should I submit my proxy card instead?

A:     Yes. Whether you plan to attend the Special Meeting or not, please read the enclosed proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus carefully, and vote your shares by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided.

Q:     If my shares are held in “street name,” will my broker, bank or nominee automatically vote my shares for me?

A:     No. Under the rules of various national and regional securities exchanges, your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares with respect to non-discretionary matters unless you provide instructions on how to vote in accordance with the information and procedures provided to you by your broker, bank, or

18

Table of Contents

nominee. SRAC believes the proposals presented to the stockholders will be considered non-discretionary and therefore your broker, bank, or nominee cannot vote your shares without your instruction. Your bank, broker, or other nominee can vote your shares only if you provide instructions on how to vote. You should instruct your broker to vote your shares in accordance with directions you provide.

Q:     May I change my vote after I have submitted my executed proxy card?

A:     Yes. You may change your vote by sending a later-dated, signed proxy card to SRAC’s secretary at the address listed below so that it is received by SRAC’s secretary prior to the Special Meeting or attend the Special Meeting in person and vote. You also may revoke your proxy by sending a notice of revocation to SRAC’s secretary, which must be received prior to the Special Meeting.

Q:     What should I do if I receive more than one set of voting materials?

A:     You may receive more than one set of voting materials, including multiple copies of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and multiple proxy cards or voting instruction cards. For example, if you hold your shares in more than one brokerage account, you will receive a separate voting instruction card for each brokerage account in which you hold shares. If you are a holder of record and your shares are registered in more than one name, you will receive more than one proxy card. Please complete, sign, date and return each proxy card and voting instruction card that you receive in order to cast your vote with respect to all of your shares.

Questions and Answers About the Consent Solicitation of Momentus Stockholders

Q:     Why am I receiving this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus?

A:     Momentus stockholders are being asked to adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers (the “Momentus Proposal”), by executing and delivering the written consent furnished with this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. As a result of the Business Combination, SRAC will acquire Momentus. Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, the aggregate consideration given to the Momentus stockholders and holders of certain convertible securities in connection with the Mergers, will be paid in shares of Combined Company newly issued Class A common stock (or securities exercisable for Combined Company Class A common stock) having a value equal to $1,131,000,000, minus Momentus’ indebtedness for borrowed money as of the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”), plus the amount of the Momentus’ cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash as determined in accordance with GAAP, any cash being held on behalf of the Momentus’ customers and any security deposits for leases) as of the Closing, plus the aggregate exercise price of all options and warrants outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing. The Combined Company Class A common stock issued (or reserved for issuance upon exercise of options or warrants) to holders of Momentus equity will be based on a deemed value of $10.00 per share. For more information about the consideration payable to the holders of Momentus equity interests (and convertible securities), please see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — The Merger Agreement — Merger Consideration.”

A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex A. This proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and its annexes contain important information about the proposed business combination and the solicitation of written consents. You should read this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and its annexes carefully and in their entirety.

Momentus stockholders are encouraged to return their written consent as soon as possible after carefully reviewing this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and its annexes.

Q:     What am I being asked to approve in the written consent?

A:     Momentus stockholders are being asked to adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination, including the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Mergers. Momentus stockholders are also being asked to approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, a separate proposal with respect to certain governance provisions in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation described in Proposal Nos. 3A through 3G beginning on page 149 (the “Unbundled Governance Proposals”) of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Q:     Who is entitled to act by written consent?

A:     Only Momentus stockholders of record holding shares of Momentus capital stock at the close of business on the record date of               , 2021 (the “Momentus Record Date”), will be notified of and be entitled to execute and deliver a written consent with respect to the Momentus Proposal.

20

Table of Contents

Q:     How can I give my consent?

A:     Holders of Momentus capital stock may give their consent by completing, dating and signing the written consent which will be sent to them pursuant to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and returning it to Momentus by emailing a .pdf copy to            at            or by mailing it to           .

Q:     What approval is required to adopt the Merger Agreement?

A:     Written consents from each of (i) the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of Momentus capital stock (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis), (ii) the holders of at least a majority of the issued and outstanding shares of Momentus common stock issued and outstanding (voting as a single class), and (iii) the holders of at least a majority of the shares of Preferred Stock of Momentus issued and outstanding (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis) are required to adopt the Momentus Proposal.

Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Mikhail Kokorich, PML and an affiliated entity of PML (each, a “Written Consent Party”), which collectively hold (a) a majority of the outstanding voting power of Momentus stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof (voting as a single class on an as-converted basis) (b) a majority of the shares of Momentus common stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof (voting as a single class) (c) a majority of the shares of Momentus preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis) entered into Support Agreements with SRAC pursuant to which, among other things, each Written Consent Party agreed to support the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including agreeing to execute a written consent constituting the requisite Momentus stockholder approval within three (3) business days of the Registration Statement becoming effective. As of the close of business on the Record Date, the            shares of Momentus common stock that are subject to the Support Agreement represent of the aggregate outstanding voting power of the issued and outstanding shares of SRAC (voting as a single class and on an as converted basis).

Q:     Do Momentus stockholders have appraisal rights if they object to the Mergers?

A:     Yes. Pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the California Corporations Code (the “CCC”), Momentus stockholders who comply with the applicable requirements of Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC and do not otherwise withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Delaware or California (to the extent applicable) law have the right to seek appraisal of the fair value of their shares of Momentus stock if the Mergers are completed. The “fair value” of your shares of Momentus capital stock as determined by the Delaware Court of Chancery may be more or less than, or the same as, the value of the consideration that you are otherwise entitled to receive under the Merger Agreement. Momentus stockholders who do not consent to the adoption of the Merger Agreement and who wish to preserve their appraisal rights must so advise Momentus by submitting a demand for appraisal within the period prescribed by Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC after receiving a notice from Momentus or the Combined Company that appraisal rights are available to them, and must otherwise precisely follow the procedures prescribed by Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC. Failure to follow any of the statutory procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC will result in the loss or waiver of appraisal rights under Delaware or California law. In view of the complexity of Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC, Momentus stockholders who may wish to pursue appraisal rights should consult their legal and financial advisors. For additional information on appraisal rights available to Momentus stockholders, see the section titled “Additional Information—Appraisal Rights” beginning on page 260 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Q:     What interests do the current officers and directors of Momentus have in the Business Combination?

A:     In considering whether to adopt the Merger Agreement by executing and delivering the written consent, Momentus stockholders should be aware that aside from their interests as stockholders, Momentus’ officers and members of Momentus’ board of directors have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other Momentus stockholders generally. Momentus stockholders should

21

Table of Contents

take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. For additional information please see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement—Interests of the Momentus Directors and Executive Officers” beginning on page 127 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Q:     What are the material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Mergers to Momentus stockholders that are U.S. holders?

A:     Momentus and SRAC intend for the Mergers, taken together, to constitute an integrated transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Assuming that the Mergers qualify as a reorganization, a Momentus stockholder that receives Combined Company Class A common stock in exchange for its Momentus capital stock in the Mergers generally will not recognize gain or loss (except with respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional share of Combined Class A common stock). However, there are many requirements that must be satisfied in order for the Mergers to qualify as a reorganization, some of which are based upon factual determinations. Neither SRAC nor Momentus has requested or received a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of counsel that the Mergers will qualify as a reorganization. If it is determined that the Mergers are not treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, unless the First Merger qualifies as a tax-free exchange of property for stock under Section 351 of the Code, the exchange of Momentus capital stock for Combined Company Class A common stock in the Mergers will be a fully taxable transaction. In such case, a Momentus stockholder would recognize gain or loss, generally measured by the difference between (i) the fair market value of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock received in the Mergers by such Momentus stockholder and (ii) such stockholder’s tax basis in the Momentus capital stock surrendered. Momentus stockholders should consult with their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences to them of the Mergers and review the more detailed description of the tax consequences of the Mergers titled “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Mergers to Holders of Momentus Capital Stock that are U.S. holders” beginning on page 141 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Q:     What is the deadline for returning my written consent?

A:     Momentus has set           , Eastern Time, on               , 2021, as the target date for the receipt of written consents. Momentus reserves the right to extend the final date for receipt of written consents beyond such date. Any such extension may be made without notice to Momentus stockholders. Once a sufficient number of consents to adopt the Merger Agreement has been received, the consent solicitation will conclude.

Q:     Should Momentus stockholders send in their stock certificates now?

A:     No. Momentus stockholders SHOULD NOT send in any stock certificates now. If the Merger Agreement is adopted and the Mergers are consummated, transmittal materials, with instructions for their completion, will be provided under separate cover to Momentus stockholders who hold physical stock certificates (if any) and the stock certificates should be sent at that time in accordance with such instructions.

Q:     Who can help answer my questions?

A:     If you have any questions about the Mergers or how to return your written consent, or if you need additional copies of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus or a replacement written consent, you should contact          by phone toll-free at          or by email to          or by mailing your request to         , at         .

The Business Combination Proposal

SRAC’s stockholders will be asked to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination.

The Charter Amendment Proposal and the Governance Proposals

SRAC’s stockholders will be asked to consider and act upon a proposal to adopt the proposed Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Combined Company attached as Annex B to the proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Additionally, SRAC stockholders will be asked to consider and act upon, on a non-binding advisory basis, seven separate proposals relating to the following material differences between SRAC’s existing charter and the proposed Combined Company’s Amended and Restated Charter in accordance with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission requirements.

         Proposal No. 3A — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to increase the total number of authorized shares of all classes of capital stock from 111,000,000 shares to, following the automatic conversion of all Class B common stock into Class A common stock immediately prior to the Closing of the Business Combination, 270,000,000 shares, which would consist of (a) 250,000,000 shares of Class A common stock and (b) 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock;

         Proposal No. 3B — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to require, with respect to any vote to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of any class or classes of stock (but not below the number of shares then outstanding), the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of all the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, and no vote of the holders of the Class A Common Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor.

         Proposal No. 3C — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to provide, subject to the special rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock of the Combined Company, that no director may be removed from the Combined Company board except for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors voting together as a single class;

         Proposal No. 3D — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to require the affirmative vote of either a majority of the total number of authorized directors whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships (the “Whole Board”) or the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, for the adoption, amendment, or repeal any provision of the bylaws (in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of required by applicable law or by the proposed charter of the Combined Company); provided, however, that if two-thirds (2/3) of the Whole Board has approved such adoption, amendment or repeal, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting

         Proposal No. 3F — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to clarify that the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court of the State of Delaware shall not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America shall be the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of claims arising under the Securities Act; and

         Proposal No. 3G — To consider and vote upon an amendment to SRAC’s existing charter to authorize all other proposed changes, including, among others, those (i) resulting from the Business Combination, including changing the post-business combination corporate name from “Stable Road Acquisition Corp.” to “Momentus Inc.” and removing certain provisions relating to SRAC’s prior status as a blank check company and SRAC Class B common stock that will no longer apply upon the Closing, or (ii) that are administrative or clarifying in nature, including the deletion of language without substantive effect.

We refer to Proposals No. 3A through 3G collectively as the “Governance Proposals.” Please see the section titled “Proposals No. 3A through 3G — The Governance Proposals” for more information.

Other Proposals

In addition, SRAC’s stockholders will be asked to consider and vote upon the following proposals:

         Proposal No. 4 — The Director Election Proposal — a proposal to elect, assuming the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal are all approved and adopted, seven directors to the Combined Company’s board of directors (the “Director Election Proposal”).

         Proposal No. 5 — The Equity Incentive Plan Proposal — To approve and adopt the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”) and material terms thereunder (the “Equity Incentive Plan Proposal”).

         Proposal No. 7 — The CEO Option Grant Proposal — To approve and adopt a stock option grant and material terms thereunder (the “CEO Option Grant”) to Mikhail Kokorich, the Chief Executive Officer of Momentus, effective upon Closing (the “CEO Option Grant Proposal”). A copy of the award agreement pursuant to which the CEO Option Grant will be made is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex E.

         Proposal No. 8 — The Nasdaq Proposal — a proposal to approve, assuming the Business Combination Proposal and the Charter Amendment Proposal are approved and adopted, for purposes of complying with applicable provisions of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635, the issuance of more than 20% of SRAC’s issued and outstanding common stock in connection with the Business Combination and the PIPE Investment, and the related change in control (collectively, the “Nasdaq Proposal” and, together with the Business

Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Governance Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and the CEO Option Grant Proposal the “Proposals”).

Please see the sections titled “Proposal No. 4—The Director Election Proposal,” “Proposal No. 5—Approval of the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan Proposal,” “Proposal No. 6—Approval of the 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal” “Proposal No. 7—Approval of the CEO Option Grant Proposal” and “Proposal No. 8—The Nasdaq Proposal” for more information.

Quorum and Required Vote for Proposals for the Special Meeting

A quorum of outstanding shares of SRAC common stock is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the Special Meeting if a majority of the Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting is represented in person or by proxy. Abstentions will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum.

The Business Combination Proposal, the Governance Proposals (on an advisory basis), the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, the CEO Option Grant Proposal, and the Nasdaq Proposal require the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of SRAC’s shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and actually cast at the Special Meeting, voting as a single class. Approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal, requires the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy) of the holders of a majority of SRAC’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting, voting as a single class. Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by holders of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, voting as a single class. This means that the seven director nominees who receive the most affirmative votes will be elected. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes with respect to the election of directors. Accordingly, if a valid quorum is otherwise established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of any vote on the Business Combination Proposal, the Governance Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, or the CEO Option Grant Proposal, but will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST the Charter Amendment Proposal.

The Closing is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal are cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Director Election Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and the CEO Option Grant Proposal are conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal. The Governance Proposals are not conditioned on the approval of any of the other Proposals.

Recommendation of the SRAC Board of Directors

After careful consideration, the SRAC Board has unanimously determined (i) that the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby are advisable and in the best interests of SRAC and its stockholders and (ii) to recommend that the SRAC stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination and the Transactions. Accordingly, the SRAC Board recommends that SRAC’s stockholders vote “FOR” adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Business Combination, and “FOR” all other proposals presented to SRAC’s stockholders in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

For a more complete description of SRAC’s reasons for the approval of the Business Combination and the recommendation of the SRAC board of directors, see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — SRAC’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”

Table of Contents

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

In considering the recommendation of the SRAC Board to vote in favor of the Business Combination, stockholders should be aware that, aside from their interests as stockholders, our Sponsor and certain of SRAC’s directors and officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other stockholders generally. SRAC’s directors were aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating the Business Combination, and in recommending to stockholders that they approve the Business Combination. Stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. See the sections titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Interests of Certain SRAC Persons in the Business Combination” and “SRAC Special Meeting of Stockholders — Recommendation to SRAC Stockholders” for more information.

SRAC’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination

After careful consideration, the SRAC Board recommends that its stockholders vote “FOR” each proposal being submitted to a vote at the Special Meeting. For more information about SRAC’s board of directors’ decision-making process, please see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — SRAC’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”

Redemption Rights

Under SRAC’s existing charter, any holder of SRAC Class A common stock may elect that such shares be redeemed in exchange for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest but net of taxes payable, calculated as of two (2) business days prior to the Closing. If demand is properly made and the Business Combination is consummated, these shares, immediately prior to the Business Combination, will cease to be outstanding and will represent only the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account, which holds the proceeds of our IPO (calculated as of two (2) business days prior to the Closing, including interest but net of taxes payable). You will no longer own those shares and will have no right to participate in, or have any interest in, the future growth of SRAC following the Business Combination, if any. For illustrative purposes, based on the fair value of marketable securities held in the Trust Account as of September 30, 2020 of approximately $173 million, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.03.

In order to exercise redemption rights, holders of SRAC Class A common stock must follow specific procedures, some of which are time sensitive. See “SRAC Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights.

Prior to exercising redemption rights, stockholders should verify the market price of SRAC Class A common stock as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their SRAC Class A common stock in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. SRAC cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your shares of SRAC Class A common stock in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in the SRAC Class A common stock when you wish to sell your shares.

Board of Directors of the Combined Company Following the Business Combination

At the Closing, the Combined Company anticipates increasing the size of the board of directors from four directors to seven directors. Please see the sections titled “Proposal No. 2 — The Charter Amendment Proposal,” “Proposals No. 3A Through 3G — The Governance Proposals,” “Proposal No. 4 — The Director Election Proposal” and “Management After the Business Combination” for additional information.

Regulatory Approvals Required for the Mergers

The completion of the Mergers is subject to the requirements under the Hart Scott Rodino Antitrust Improvements Act of 1976 (the “HSR Act”). Each of SRAC and Momentus will use their reasonable best efforts to obtain all necessary actions, waivers, consents, approvals, orders and authorizations from governmental entities and make all necessary registrations, declarations and filings (including registrations, declarations and filings with governmental entities, if any), including by requesting early termination of the HSR waiting period. On October 22, 2020, SRAC and Momentus filed the required forms under the HSR Act with the Antitrust Division and the FTC and requested early termination of the HSR Act 30-day waiting period. The parties were granted early termination of the HSR Act 30-day waiting period on November 3, 2020.

Appraisal Rights of SRAC Stockholders

Appraisal rights are not available to holders of shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock in connection with the Business Combination.

Appraisal Rights of Momentus Stockholders

Pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC, Momentus stockholders who comply with the applicable requirements of Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC, and do not otherwise withdraw or lose the right to appraisal under Delaware or California law have the right to seek appraisal of the fair value of their shares of Momentus stock if the Mergers are completed. The “fair value” of your shares of Momentus capital stock may be more or less than, or the same as, the value of the consideration that you are otherwise entitled to receive under the Merger Agreement. Momentus stockholders who do not consent to the adoption of the Merger Agreement and who wish to preserve their appraisal rights must so advise Momentus by submitting a demand for appraisal within the period prescribed by Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC after receiving a notice from Momentus or the Combined Company that appraisal rights are available to them, and must otherwise precisely follow the procedures prescribed by Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC. Failure to follow any of the statutory procedures set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC will result in the loss or waiver of appraisal rights under Delaware law. In view of the complexity of Section 262 of the DGCL and Chapter 13 of the CCC, Momentus stockholders who may wish to pursue appraisal rights should consult their legal and financial advisors. For additional

information on appraisal rights available to Momentus stockholders, see the section titled “Additional Information — Appraisal Rights” beginning on page 260 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Proxy Solicitation

Proxies may be solicited by mail. SRAC has engaged Morrow to assist in the solicitation of proxies for the Special Meeting.

If a stockholder grants a proxy, it may still vote its shares in person if it revokes its proxy before the Special Meeting. A stockholder may also change its vote by submitting a later-dated proxy, as described in the section titled “SRAC Special Meeting of Stockholders — Revoking Your Proxy.”

Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Mergers to Momentus Stockholders that are U.S. holders

Momentus and SRAC intend for the Mergers, taken together, to constitute an integrated transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. Assuming that the Mergers qualify as a reorganization, a Momentus stockholder that receives Combined Company Class A common stock in exchange for its Momentus capital stock in the Mergers generally will not recognize gain or loss (except with respect to any cash received in lieu of a fractional share of Combined Class A common stock). However, there are many requirements that must be satisfied in order for the Mergers to qualify as a reorganization, some of which are based upon factual determinations. Neither SRAC nor Momentus has requested or received a ruling from the Internal Revenue Service or an opinion of counsel that the Mergers will qualify as a reorganization. If it is determined that the Mergers are not treated as a reorganization within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code, unless the First Merger qualifies as a tax-free exchange of property for stock under Section 351 of the Code, the exchange of Momentus capital stock for Combined Company Class A common stock in the Mergers will be a fully taxable transaction. In such case, a Momentus stockholder would recognize gain or loss, generally measured by the difference between (i) the fair market value of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock received in the Mergers by such Momentus stockholder and (ii) such stockholder’s tax basis in the Momentus capital stock surrendered.

Momentus stockholders should consult with their own tax advisors as to the tax consequences to them of the Mergers as well as review the more detailed description of the tax consequences of the Mergers in the section titled “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations — Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Mergers to Holders of Momentus Capital Stock that are U.S. Holders” beginning on page 141 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Conditions to the Completion of the Mergers

The obligations of SRAC and Momentus to effect the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are subject to the following conditions:

•        Momentus must have delivered to SRAC a stockholder action by written consent (the “Stockholder Written Consent”), (representing (1) at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of Momentus capital stock issued and outstanding (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis), (2) at least a majority of outstanding shares of Momentus common stock issued and outstanding (voting as a single class) and (3) at least a majority of the shares of Momentus preferred stock issued and outstanding (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis), adopting and approving the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby and constituting the requisite approval under the DGCL, the California Corporations Code (to the extent applicable) and Momentus’ organizational documents with respect to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby (the “Requisite Momentus Stockholder Approval”), and such approval shall remain in full force and effect;

•        at the Special Meeting, the SRAC stockholders must have approved: (1) the adoption of the Merger Agreement and approval of the Transactions; (2) the issuance of the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock to be issued in connection with the First Merger; (3) an increase in the number of authorized

•        the Registration Statement, of which this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus forms a part, must be effective and no stop order suspending the effectiveness of the Registration Statement shall be in effect and no proceedings for that purpose shall be pending before or threatened by the SEC.

•        The fundamental representations and warranties of SRAC (i.e., representations related to organization and qualification, subsidiaries, capitalization, authority relative to the Merger Agreement, business activities and SRAC’s trust account) must have been true and correct in all material respects (without giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality” or “SRAC Material Adverse Effect,” as defined below, or any similar limitation contained therein) as of the date of the Merger Agreement and the Closing Date as though made on and as of the date of the Merger Agreement and the Closing Date (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty must be true and correct as of such earlier date) and all other representations and warranties of SRAC set forth in the Merger Agreement must have been true and correct (without giving effect to any limitation as to “materiality” or “SRAC Material Adverse Effect” or any similar limitation contained therein) on and as of the date of the Merger Agreement and the Closing Date as though made on and as of the date of the Merger Agreement and the Closing Date (except to the extent that any such representation and warranty expressly speaks as of an earlier date, in which case such representation and warranty shall be true and correct as of such earlier date ), except where the failure of such representations and warranties of SRAC to be so true and correct, individually or in the aggregate, has not had and is not reasonably likely to have a SRAC Material Adverse Effect;

•        SRAC must have delivered to Momentus a certificate signed by an executive officer of SRAC and dated as of the Closing Date, certifying as to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the two immediately preceding bullet points;

•        certain individuals must have resigned from their positions and offices with SRAC;

•        SRAC must have delivered, or stand ready to deliver, to Momentus all of the certificates, instruments, contracts and other documents specified to be delivered by SRAC pursuant to the Merger Agreement, duly executed by SRAC, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub, as applicable, and there shall have been no material amendment, material modification or termination of the Sponsor Agreement (except as permitted pursuant to the Merger Agreement);

•        Momentus must have performed or complied with all of its agreements and covenants required to be performed or complied with by it under the Merger Agreement on or prior to the Closing Date in all material respects;

•        Since the date of the Merger Agreement, there must not have occurred a Momentus Material Adverse Effect;

Summary of the Transactions

Set forth below is a summary of the transactions that are contemplated to occur in connection with the Business Combination.

Treatment of Momentus Equity Interests and Convertible Securities in the Mergers

Capital Stock

In connection with the Mergers, each share of Momentus capital stock (subject to limited exceptions) will be cancelled and automatically deemed for all purposes to represent the right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration in accordance with Momentus’ organizational documents.

Table of Contents

Warrants

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Momentus warrant that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be converted into a warrant to acquire an adjusted number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock at an adjusted exercise price per share, in each case, as determined under the Merger Agreement (each such resulting warrant, an “Assumed Warrant”). Each Assumed Warrant will be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding warrant in Momentus immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the Mergers or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the parties to the Merger Agreement may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Assumed Warrants. Accordingly, effective as of the Effective Time: (a) each such Assumed Warrant will be exercisable solely for shares of SRAC Class A common stock; (b) the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to each Assumed Warrant shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Stock that are subject to the warrant by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock; and (c) the per share exercise price for the SRAC Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrant shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Stock subject to the Assumed Warrant, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent.

Vested and Unvested Options

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Momentus option (whether vested or unvested) (other than any non-plan option, which will be handled as set forth below under “Non-Plan Option,” below) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be assumed by SRAC and converted into an option to acquire an adjusted number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock at an adjusted exercise price per share, in each case, as determined under the Merger Agreement (each such resulting option, a “Rollover Option”). Each Rollover Option will be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the parties to the Merger Agreement may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover Options. Accordingly, effective as of the Effective Time: (a) each such Rollover Option will be exercisable solely for shares of SRAC Class A common stock; (b) the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to each Rollover Option shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Stock that are subject to the Rollover Option by the Per Share Company Merger Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock; and (c) the per share exercise price for the SRAC Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of such Rollover Option shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Stock subject to the Rollover Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Per Share Company Merger Consideration, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent. See “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — The Merger Agreement — Treatment of Momentus Equity Interests — Vested and Unvested Options” for more information.

Non-Plan Option

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Momentus non-plan option that was granted prior to Closing and is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled for no consideration.

Restricted Stock

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each award of Momentus restricted stock that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be assumed by SRAC and converted into an award of restricted stock with respect to an adjusted number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock (the “Rollover Restricted Stock”) determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Restricted Stock subject to such award by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock. Each share of Rollover Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding share of Momentus Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time

(including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the parties to the Merger Agreement may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover Restricted Stock.

SAFE Notes

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each SAFE note that is outstanding will be automatically converted into the right to receive the aggregate Per Share Company Stock Consideration payable in accordance with the terms of such applicable SAFE note in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Each SAFE note so converted shall immediately thereafter terminate in accordance with its terms.

Treatment of Founder Shares

Immediately prior to the Closing, Sponsor and SRAC Partners will surrender to SRAC the Sponsor Contingent Closing Shares. In connection with the Closing, immediately following the conversion of the Sponsor’s founder shares into shares of Combined Company Class A common stock, Sponsor and SRAC Partners shall subject the Sponsor Earnout Shares to potential forfeiture in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement and the Sponsor Agreement.

PIPE Investment

Immediately prior to the Closing, the PIPE Investors will subscribe for and purchase, and the Combined Company will issue to the PIPE Investors, an aggregate of 17,500,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock in exchange for an aggregate amount of cash equal to $175,000,000.

Debt Repayment

Following the consummation of the Transactions, SRAC will pay, or cause to be paid, all outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money of Momentus. No later than three days prior to the Closing, Momentus shall deliver to SRAC a copy of the executed payoff letter with respect to Momentus’ existing credit agreement. At the closing, the Momentus will not have any outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money.

Risk Factors

In evaluating the Business Combination and the proposals to be considered and voted on at the Special Meeting, you should carefully review and consider the risk factors set forth under the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 39 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in the section titled “Risk Factors,” alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on (i) the ability of SRAC and Momentus to complete the Business Combination, and (ii) the business, cash flows, financial condition and results of operations of the Combined Company following the Closing.

RISK FACTORS

In addition to the other information contained in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, including the matters addressed under the heading “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements,” you should carefully consider the following risk factors in deciding how to vote on the proposals presented in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. The occurrence of one or more of the events or circumstances described in these risk factors, alone or in combination with other events or circumstances, may have a material adverse effect on the Combined Company’s business, reputation, revenue, financial condition, results of operations and future prospects, in which event the market price of Combined Company Class A common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

Risks Related to the Business and Industry of Momentus

The following risk factors will apply to Momentus’ business and operations following the completion of the Business Combination. These risk factors are not exhaustive, and investors are encouraged to perform their own investigation with respect to the business, financial condition and prospects of Momentus and its business, financial condition and prospects following the completion of the Business Combination. You should carefully consider the following risk factors in addition to the other information included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, including matters addressed in the section titled “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.” Momentus may face additional risks and uncertainties that are not presently known to it, or that it currently deems immaterial, which may also impair Momentus’ business or financial condition. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the financial statements of Momentus and notes to the financial statements included herein.

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this subsection to the “Company,” “we,” “us” or “our” refer to the business of Momentus and its subsidiaries prior to the consummation of the Business Combination, which will be the business of the Combined Company and its subsidiaries following the consummation of the Business Combination.

We have not yet delivered customer satellites into orbit using any of our transfer and service vehicles, and any setbacks we may experience during our initial mission planned for January 2021 and other demonstration and commercial missions could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation and could harm our reputation.

The success of our in-space infrastructure services business will depend on our ability to successfully and regularly deliver customer satellites at custom orbits. Our mission planned for January 2021 will be a demonstration mission in which our vehicle will deliver client satellites into orbit for the first time. In this inaugural mission, we expect to demonstrate Vigoride’s ability to deploy satellites at the point at which Vigoride is dropped off by the launch vehicle and to perform certain maneuvers after deployment. We do not expect to deliver client satellites to custom orbits until  the second half of 2021 at the earliest.

While we have built operational processes to ensure that the design, manufacture, performance and servicing of our in-space vehicles meet rigorous performance goals, there can be no assurance that we will not experience operational or process failures and other problems during our inaugural mission or on any other mission. Any failures or setbacks, particularly on our inaugural mission, could harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

We have incurred significant losses since inception, we expect to incur losses in the future and we may not be able to achieve or maintain profitability.

We have incurred significant losses since inception. We incurred net losses of $126.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and $15.8 million and $6.2 million for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. We have not yet commenced delivery of customer satellites into orbit, and it is difficult for us to predict our future operating results. As a result, our losses may be larger than anticipated, and we may not achieve profitability when expected, or at all, and even if we do, we may not be able to maintain or increase profitability.

We expect our operating expenses to increase over the next several years as we scale our operations, increase research and development efforts relating to new offerings and technologies, and hire more employees. These efforts may be more costly than we expect and may not result in increased revenue or growth in our business. Any failure to increase our revenue sufficiently to keep pace with our investments and other expenses could prevent us from achieving or

39

Table of Contents

maintaining profitability or positive cash flow. Furthermore, if our future growth and operating performance fail to meet investor or analyst expectations, or if we have future negative cash flow or losses resulting from expanding our operations, this could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our ability to grow our business depends on the successful development of our vehicles and related technology, which is subject to many uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control.

Our current primary research and development objectives focus on the development of our existing and future vehicles and related technology. If we do not complete development of these vehicles in our anticipated timeframes or at all, our ability to grow our business will be adversely affected. The successful development of our vehicles and related technology involves many uncertainties, some of which are beyond our control, including, but not limited to:

•        timing in finalizing vehicle design and specifications;

•        successful completion of demonstration missions;

•        our ability to obtain additional applicable approvals, licenses or certifications from regulatory agencies, if required, and maintaining current approvals, licenses or certifications;

•        performance of our manufacturing facility despite risks that disrupt productions, such as natural disasters;

•        performance of a limited number of suppliers for certain raw materials and supplied components and their willingness to do business with us;

•        performance of our third-party contractors that support our research and development activities;

•        our ability to protect our intellectual property critical to the design and function of our transport vehicles;

•        our ability to continue funding and maintaining our research and development activities; and

•        the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on us, our customers, suppliers and distributors, and the global economy.

Momentus’ limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate its future prospects and the risks and challenges it may encounter.

We have been focused on developing space transportation and infrastructure services since 2017. This limited operating history makes it difficult to evaluate Momentus’ future prospects and the risks and challenges it may encounter. Risks and challenges Momentus has faced or expects to face include its ability to:

•        forecast its revenue and budget for and manage its expenses;

•        attract new customers and retain existing customers;

•        effectively manage its growth and business operations, including planning for and managing capital expenditures for its current and future vehicles and services, and managing its supply chain and supplier relationships related to its current and future vehicles and services;

•        comply with existing and new or modified laws and regulations applicable to its business;

•        anticipate and respond to macroeconomic changes and changes in the markets in which it operates;

•        maintain and enhance the value of its reputation and brand;

•        develop and protect intellectual property; and

•        hire, integrate and retain talented people at all levels of its organization.

If Momentus fails to address the risks and difficulties that it faces, including those associated with the challenges listed above as well as those described elsewhere in this “Risk Factors” section, its business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected. Further, because Momentus has limited historical financial data and operates in a rapidly evolving market, any predictions about its future revenue and expenses may not be as accurate as they would be if it had a longer operating history or operated in a more developed market. Momentus has encountered

40

Table of Contents

in the past, and will encounter in the future, risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by growing companies with limited operating histories in rapidly changing industries. If Momentus’ assumptions regarding these risks and uncertainties, which it uses to plan and operate its business, are incorrect or change, or if it does not address these risks successfully, its results of operations could differ materially from its expectations and its business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

The market for in-space infrastructure services has not been established with precision, is still emerging and may not achieve the growth potential we expect or may grow more slowly than expected.

The markets for in-space infrastructure services have not been established with precision as the commercialization of space is a relatively new development and is rapidly evolving. Our estimates for the total addressable markets for in-space infrastructure services are based on a number of internal and third-party estimates, including our current backlog, assumed prices at which we can offer services, assumed frequency of service, our ability to leverage our current manufacturing and operational processes and general market conditions. While we believe our assumptions and the data underlying our estimates are reasonable, these assumptions and estimates may not be correct and the conditions supporting our assumptions or estimates may change at any time, thereby reducing the predictive accuracy of these underlying factors. As a result, our estimates of the annual total addressable markets for in-space infrastructure services, as well as the expected growth rate for the total addressable market for that experience, may prove to be incorrect.

We may not be able to convert our orders in backlog into revenue.

As of November 1, 2020, our backlog consisted of approximately $90 million in customer contracts. However, these contracts are cancellable by customers for convenience. If a customer cancels a contract before it is required to pay the last deposit prior to launch, we may not receive all potential revenue from these orders, except for an initial non-refundable deposit which is paid at the time the contract is signed.

In addition, backlog is typically subject to large variations from quarter to quarter and comparisons of backlog from period to period are not necessarily indicative of future revenues. Furthermore, some contracts comprising the backlog are for services scheduled many years in the future, and the economic viability of customers with whom we have contracted is not guaranteed over time. As a result, the contracts comprising our backlog may not result in actual revenue in any particular period, or at all, and the actual revenue from such contracts may differ from our backlog estimates. The timing of receipt of revenues, if any, on projects included in backlog could change because many factors affect the scheduling of missions and adjustments to contracts may also occur. The failure to realize some portion of our backlog could adversely affect our revenues and gross margins. Furthermore, the presentation of our financial results requires us to make estimates and assumptions that may affect revenue recognition. In some instances, we could reasonably use different estimates and assumptions, and changes in estimates are likely to occur from period to period. Accordingly, actual results could differ significantly from our estimates.

A key component of our business model is the delivery of satellites using our vehicles from lower earth orbit to other orbits. The technology for this maneuver is still in the development stage and has not been fully validated through actual deployment and testing. If we are unable to develop and validate such technology or technology for other planned services, our operating results and business will be materially adversely affected.

While we plan to initially deliver satellites within lower earth orbit at costs significantly lower than our competitors, the success of our business is in large part dependent on our ability to develop more powerful and efficient propulsion to deliver satellites and other payloads to other orbits and provide other services, such as deorbiting of defunct or obsolete satellites, satellite repositioning, by 2023. This technology is currently under development, and if we fail to successfully complete the development and validate this technology through actual deployment and testing of such technology, or if we experience any delays or setbacks in the development of this technology or encounter difficulties in scaling our delivery or servicing capabilities, we may not be able to fully realize our business model and our financial results and prospects would be materially adversely affected.

Additionally, as part of our business plan, we plan to provide reusable vehicles and offer in orbit services, such as inspection, refueling, life extension, re-positioning, salvage missions, maintenance and repair, and de-orbiting. This will require development of new capabilities for our vehicles, such as the capability to perform proximity maneuvering and berthing. These anticipated capabilities need technologies that are unproven and subject to significant continued design and development efforts, may take longer than anticipated to materialize, if at all, and may never be commercialized in a way that would allow us to generate revenue from the sale of these services and offerings. Relatedly, if such

41

Table of Contents

technologies become viable in the future, we may be subject to increased competition, and some competitors may have substantially greater monetary and knowledge resources than we have and expect to have in the future to devote to the development of these technologies.

We are dependent on third-party launch vehicles to launch our vehicles and customer payloads into space and any delay could have a material adverse impact to our financial condition and results of operations.

Currently there are only a handful of companies who offer launch services, and if this sector of the space industry does not grow or there is consolidation among these companies, we may not be able to secure space on a launch vehicle or such space may be more costly.

Our vehicles are expected to provide “last-mile” transport for satellites to their custom orbit after they are released at a drop off point in space. Therefore, we are dependent on third-party launch vehicles to deliver our vehicles into space. If the number of companies offering launch services or the number of launches does not grow in the future or there is a consolidation among companies who offer these services, this could result in a shortage of space on these launch vehicles, which may cause delays in our ability to meet our customers’ needs. Additionally, a shortage of space available on launch vehicles may cause prices to increase or cause delays in our ability to meet our customers’ needs. Either of these situations could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

Further, in the event that a launch is delayed, our timing for revenue of recognition may be impacted depending on the length of the delay and the nature of the contract with the customers with payloads on such delayed flight. For example, SpaceX has delayed the December 2020 launch of Falcon 9, on which our inaugural mission was planned, until January 2021. While such delays are common in the space industry, any delay in a launch on which we are booked for missions with paying clients would result in a delay in recognizing revenue which could materially impact our financial statements or result in negative impacts to our earnings during a specified time period, which could have a material effect on our results of operations and financial condition.

We may be unable to manage our future growth effectively, which could make it difficult to execute our business strategy.

If our operations continue to grow as planned, of which there can be no assurance, we will need to expand our sales and marketing, research and development, customer and commercial strategy, products and services, supply, and manufacturing functions. We will also need to continue to leverage our manufacturing and operational systems and processes, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to scale the business and the manufacture of vehicles as currently planned or within the planned timeframe. The continued expansion of our business may also require additional manufacturing and operational facilities, as well as space for administrative support, and there is no guarantee that we will be able to find suitable locations for the manufacture of our vehicles.

Our continued growth could increase the strain on our resources, and we could experience operating difficulties, including difficulties in hiring and training employees, finding manufacturing capacity to produce our vehicles and related equipment, and delays in production. These difficulties divert the attention of management and key employees and impact financial and operational results. If we are unable to drive commensurate growth, these costs, which include lease commitments, headcount and capital assets, could result in decreased margins, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

A pandemic outbreak of a novel strain of coronavirus, also known as COVID-19, has disrupted and may continue to adversely affect our business.

The global spread of COVID-19 has disrupted certain aspects of our operations and may adversely impact our business operations and financial results, including our ability to execute on our business strategy and goals. Specifically, the continued spread of COVID-19 and precautionary actions taken related to COVID-19 have adversely impacted, and are expected to continue to adversely impact, our operations, including causing delays or disruptions in our supply chain; and decreasing our operational efficiency in the development of our vehicles. We are taking measures within our facilities to ensure the health and safety of our employees, which include universal facial coverings, rearranging facilities to follow social distancing protocols, conducting active daily temperature checks and undertaking regular and thorough disinfecting of surfaces and tools. However, there can be no assurances that these measures will prevent a future outbreak of COVID-19 within our workforce. These measures have also resulted in the reduction of operational efficiency within our impacted workforce, and we expect they will continue to do so.

The pandemic has also resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption and volatility of global financial markets. This disruption and volatility may adversely impact our ability to access capital, which could in the future negatively affect our liquidity and capital resources. Given the rapid and evolving nature of the impact of the virus, responsive measures taken by governmental authorities and the uncertainty about its impact on society and the global economy, we cannot predict the extent to which it will affect our operations, particularly if these impacts persist or worsen over an extended period of time. To the extent COVID-19 adversely affects our business operations and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of the other risks described in this “Risk Factors” section.

We may experience a total loss of our vehicle and our customers’ payloads if there is an accident on launch or during the journey into space, and any insurance we have may not be adequate to cover our loss.

Although there have been and will continue to be technological advances in spaceflight, it is still an inherently dangerous activity. Explosions and other accidents on launch or during the flight have occurred and will likely occur in the future. If such incident should occur, we will likely experience a total loss of our vehicle and our customers’ payloads. The total or partial loss of one or more vehicles or customer payloads could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations and financial condition. For some missions, we can elect to buy launch insurance, which can reduce our monetary losses from the launch failure, but even in this case we will have losses associated with our inability to test our technology in space and delays with further technology development.

Following the completion of the Business Combination, including the PIPE Investment, we may still require substantial additional funding to finance our operations, but adequate additional financing may not be available when we need it, on acceptable terms or at all.

Prior to the Business Combination, we financed our operations and capital expenditures primarily through funding from private sources. Even following the completion of the Business Combination, including the PIPE Investment, we could be required to raise capital through public or private financing or other arrangements. Such financing may not be available on acceptable terms, or at all, and our failure to raise capital when needed could harm our business. For example, the global COVID-19 health crisis and related financial impact has resulted in, and may continue to result in, significant disruption and volatility of global financial markets that could adversely impact our ability to access capital. We may sell equity securities or debt securities in one or more transactions at prices and in a manner as we may determine from time to time. If we sell any such securities in subsequent transactions, our current investors may be materially diluted. Any debt financing, if available, may involve restrictive covenants and could reduce our operational flexibility or profitability. If we cannot raise funds on acceptable terms, we may not be able to grow our business or respond to competitive pressures.

We rely on a limited number of suppliers for certain raw materials and supplied components. We may not be able to obtain sufficient raw materials or supplied components to meet our manufacturing and operating needs, or obtain such materials on favorable terms or at all, which could impair our ability to fulfill our orders in a timely manner or increase our costs of production.

Our ability to produce our current and future vehicle systems and other components of operation is dependent upon sufficient availability of raw materials and supplied components, which we secure from a limited number of suppliers. Our reliance on suppliers to secure these raw materials and supplied components exposes us to volatility in the prices and availability of these materials. We may not be able to obtain sufficient supplies of raw materials or supplied components on favorable terms or at all, which could result in delays in the manufacture of our vehicles or increased costs.

In addition, we have in the past experienced and may in the future experience delays in manufacturing or operation as we go through the requalification process with any replacement third-party supplier, as well as the limitations imposed by the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”), the Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”), or other restrictions on transfer of sensitive technologies. Moreover, the imposition of tariffs on such raw materials or supplied components could have a material adverse effect on our operations. Prolonged disruptions in the supply of any of our key raw materials or components, difficulty qualifying new sources of supply, implementing use of replacement materials or new sources of supply or any volatility in prices could have a material adverse effect on our ability to operate in a cost-efficient, timely manner and could cause us to experience cancellations or delays of scheduled missions, customer cancellations or reductions in our prices and margins, any of which could harm our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Our vehicles and related equipment may have shorter useful lives than we anticipate.

Our growth strategy depends in part on developing reusable vehicles that will allow a single vehicle to deliver cargo multiple times to multiple orbits. These reusable vehicles will have a limited useful life, which is driven by the number of cargo delivered to custom orbits and the ability to refuel in space. While we intend to design our reusable vehicles for a certain lifespan, which corresponds to a number of cycles, there can be no assurance as to the actual operational life of a vehicle or that the operational life of individual components will be consistent with its design life. A number of factors will impact the useful lives of our vehicles, including, among other things, the quality of their design and construction, the durability of their component parts and availability of any replacement components, and the occurrence of any anomaly or series of anomalies or other risks affecting the vehicles during launch and in orbit. In addition, any improvements in technology may make obsolete our existing vehicles or any component of our vehicles prior to the end of its life. If our vehicles and related equipment have shorter useful lives than we currently anticipate, this may lead to delays in increasing the rate of our commercial payloads, which would have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

We expect to face intense competition in satellite transport and related services and other services which we may develop in the space transportation industry.

The space transportation industry is still developing and evolving, but we expect it to be highly competitive. Currently, our primary competitors in delivering small satellites into a specific orbit are small launch vehicle providers such as Rocket Lab. In addition, several other companies are developing small launch vehicles, and several are developing transfer vehicles, such as Spaceflight Industries, MOOG, Astroscale and D-Orbit. Some companies, such as Rocket Labs and Firefly Aerospace, are developing both small launch vehicles and transfer vehicles. Other companies, including Spaceflight Industries and D-Orbit have announced plans to offer in-space transport services with vehicles that would compete more directly with Momentus.

We believe that competitor vehicles that are comparable to our vehicles will begin to enter the market in 2021. However, we believe that these vehicles will be limited in their propulsion capabilities and will have higher costs, whereas Momentus’ water plasma propulsion technology offers a more advantageous thrust/efficiency combination, at a lower cost. Because of this, we believe that we are well positioned to capture near-term demand and medium-term demand as the satellite industry continues to develop.

Many of our current and potential competitors are larger and may have substantially greater resources than we have and expect to have in the future. They may also be able to devote greater resources to the development of their current and future technologies or the promotion of their offerings or offer lower prices. Our current and potential competitors may also establish cooperative or strategic relationships among themselves or with third parties that may further enhance their resources and offerings. Further, it is possible that domestic or foreign companies or governments, some with greater experience in the aerospace industry or greater financial resources than we possess, will seek to provide products or services that compete directly or indirectly with ours in the future. Any such foreign competitor, for example, could benefit from subsidies from, or other protective measures by, its home country.

We believe our ability to compete successfully in delivering satellites to custom orbit at significantly reduced cost to customers does and will depend on a number of factors, which may change in the future due to increased competition, our ability to meet our customers’ needs and the frequency and availability of our offerings. If we are unable to compete successfully, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.

If we fail to adequately protect our intellectual property rights, our competitive position could be impaired and our intellectual property applications for registration may not issue or be registered, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to ours.

Our success depends, in significant part, on our ability to protect our intellectual property rights, including our water-based propulsion technology and certain other methodologies, practices, tools, technologies and technical expertise we utilize in designing, developing, implementing and maintaining applications and processes used in our vehicles and related technologies. To date, we have relied primarily on trade secrets and other intellectual property laws, non-disclosure agreements with our employees, consultants and other relevant persons and other measures to protect our intellectual property and intend to continue to rely on these and other means. We also try to protect our intellectual property by filing patent applications related to our technology, inventions and improvements that are important to the development of our business. The steps we take to protect our intellectual property may be inadequate.

44

Table of Contents

We currently have 15 pending U.S. and Patent Cooperation Treaty patent applications. Our pending patent applications may not result in patents being issued, which may have a material adverse effect on our ability to prevent others from commercially exploiting products similar to ours. Momentus cannot be certain that it is the first inventor of the subject matter to which it has filed a particular patent application, or if it is the first party to file such a patent application. If another party has filed a patent application to the same subject matter as Momentus has, Momentus may not be entitled to the protection sought by the patent application. Momentus also cannot be certain whether the claims included in a patent application will ultimately be allowed in the applicable issued patent. As a result, Momentus cannot be certain that the patent applications that it files will issue. Further, the scope of protection of issued patent claims is often difficult to determine.

Patents, if issued, may be challenged, invalidated or circumvented. If our patents are invalidated or found to be unenforceable, we will lose the ability to exclude others from making, using or selling the inventions claimed. Moreover, an issued patent does not guarantee us the right to use the patented technology or commercialize a product using that technology. Third parties may have blocking patents that could be used to prevent us from developing our product. Thus, patents that we may own in the future may not allow us to exploit the rights conferred by our intellectual property protection. Even if issued, they may not be issued with claims sufficiently broad to protect our technologies or may not provide us with a competitive advantage against competitors with similar technologies. Despite our precautions, it may be possible for unauthorized third parties to copy our technology and use information that we regard as proprietary to create technology that competes with ours. Further, the laws of some countries do not protect proprietary rights to the same extent as the laws of the United States, and mechanisms for enforcement of intellectual property rights in some foreign countries may be inadequate. Momentus’ competitors may also design around Momentus’ issued patents, which may adversely affect Momentus’ business, prospects, financial condition and operating results.

In addition, although we enter into nondisclosure and invention assignment agreements with our employees, enter into non-disclosure agreements with consultants and other parties with whom we have strategic relationships and business alliances and enter into intellectual property assignment agreements with our consultants and vendors, no assurance can be given that these agreements will be effective in controlling access to and distribution of our technology and proprietary information. Further, these agreements do not prevent our competitors from independently developing technologies that are substantially equivalent or superior to our products.

Protecting and defending against intellectual property claims may have a material adverse effect on our business.

Our success depends in part upon successful prosecution, maintenance, enforcement and protection of our owned intellectual property. To protect our intellectual property rights, we may be required to spend significant resources to monitor and protect these rights. Litigation may be necessary in the future to enforce our intellectual property rights and to protect our trade secrets. Such litigation could be costly, time consuming and distracting to management and could result in the impairment or loss of portions of our intellectual property. Furthermore, our efforts to enforce our intellectual property rights may be met with defenses, counterclaims and countersuits attacking the validity and enforceability of our intellectual property rights. Our inability to protect our technology, as well as any costly litigation or diversion of our management’s attention and resources, could disrupt our business, as well as have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations. The results of intellectual property litigation are difficult to predict and may require us to stop using certain technologies or offering certain services or may result in significant damage awards or settlement costs. There is no guarantee that any action to defend, maintain or enforce our owned or licensed intellectual property rights will be successful, and an adverse result in any such proceeding could have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

In addition, we may from time to time face allegations that we are infringing, misappropriating, or otherwise violating the intellectual property rights of third parties, including the intellectual property rights of our competitors. We may be unaware of the intellectual property rights that others may claim cover some or all of our technology or services. Irrespective of the validity of any such claims, we could incur significant costs and diversion of resources in defending against them, and there is no guarantee any such defense would be successful, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, contracts, financial condition, operating results, liquidity and prospects.

Even if these matters do not result in litigation or are resolved in our favor or without significant cash settlements, these matters, and the time and resources necessary to litigate or resolve them, could divert the time and resources of our management team and harm our business, our operating results and our reputation.

Investments in us may be subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations which may impose conditions on or limit certain investors’ ability to purchase our common stock, or after the Business Combination, the Class A common stock of the Combined Company, potentially making the Combined Company Class A common stock less attractive to investors. Our investments in U.S. companies may also be subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations.

Under the “Exon-Florio Amendment” to the U.S. Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended (the “DPA”), the U.S. President has the power to disrupt or block certain foreign investments in U.S. businesses if he determines that such a transaction threatens U.S. national security. The Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (“CFIUS”) has been delegated the authority to conduct national security reviews of certain foreign investments. CFIUS may impose mitigation conditions to grant clearance of a transaction.

The Foreign Investment Risk Review Modernization Act (“FIRRMA”), enacted in 2018, amended the DPA to, among other things, expand CFIUS’s jurisdiction beyond acquisitions of control of U.S. businesses. Under FIRRMA, CFIUS also has jurisdiction over certain foreign non-controlling investments in U.S. businesses that have involvement with critical technology or critical infrastructure, or that collect and maintain sensitive personal data of U.S. citizens (“TID U.S. Businesses”), if the foreign investor receives specified triggering rights in connection with its investment. We are a TID U.S. Business because we develop and design technologies that would be considered critical technologies. Certain foreign investments in TID U.S. Businesses are subject to mandatory filing with CFIUS. These restrictions on the ability of foreign persons to invest in us could limit our ability to engage in strategic transactions that could benefit our stockholders, including a change of control, and could also affect the price that an investor may be willing to pay for our common stock.

In addition to the restrictions on foreign investments in us, our status as a “foreign person” for CFIUS purposes may also restrict our future plans or potentially prevent us from pursuing transactions that we believe would be advantageous to us and our stockholders. We are considered to be a “foreign person” under CFIUS regulations because our founder, Mikhail Kokorich, is a Russian citizen and is deemed to have control over the Company, given his current and expected governance and management roles as Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Company and the Combined Company and his current and expected levels beneficial ownership of common stock of the Company and Combined Company. In addition, one of our stockholders, BrainySpace LLC, is owned by the wife of Lev Khasis, a co-founder and former director of the Company. Mr. Khasis is a legal permanent U.S. resident and a U.S. Person as defined for the purposes of export controls at 15 CFR §772.1 and 22 CFR §120.15 and is also a Russian citizen and the deputy Chairman of the Executive Board of Sberbank, a Russian bank that is subject to certain restrictions administered by the U.S. Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control that limit U.S. persons’ ability to engage in certain debt transactions with the bank. Accordingly, it is possible that Mr. Kokorich’s controlling interests in the Company, or perceptions surrounding Mr. Khasis and his affiliation with Sberbank, could make it more difficult to obtain CFIUS approval in connection with future potential investments by the Company in U.S. businesses. With respect to any investment by Momentus that is within CFIUS’s jurisdiction, the parties would have to determine whether a mandatory CFIUS filing would be required, or, if not, whether to submit a voluntary filing with CFIUS or proceed with the transaction without CFIUS review, in which case the transaction would remain susceptible to possible future CFIUS disruption. Whether or not a filing is made, CFIUS could block the consummation of an acquisition or investment within its jurisdiction or could order divestiture after the transaction is completed. Recently, a number of stockholders of a U.S. company, including Mr. Kokorich, divested their interests in such company pursuant to an order by CFIUS.

We are subject to stringent U.S. export and import control laws and regulations. Unfavorable changes in these laws and regulations or U.S. government licensing policies, our failure to secure timely U.S. government authorizations under these laws and regulations, or our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

We are required to comply with U.S. export control laws and regulations, including ITAR administered by the U.S. Department of State and the EAR administered by the U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (“BIS”). Pursuant to these foreign trade control laws and regulations, we are required, among other things, to (i) maintain a registration under ITAR, (ii) determine the proper licensing jurisdiction and export classification of products, software, and technology, and (iii) obtain licenses or other forms of U.S. government authorization to engage in the conduct of our space transport business. Violations of applicable export control laws and related regulations could result in criminal and administrative penalties, including fines, possible denial of export privileges, and debarment, which could have a material adverse impact on our business, including our ability to enter into contracts or subcontracts for U.S. government customers. U.S. export licenses are required to transfer or make accessible certain of the Company’s products, software and technical information to its non-U.S. employees (called “deemed exports”), including its Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Kokorich. On September 6, 2019, the Company notified the Office of Export Enforcement of BIS via an Initial Notice of Voluntary Disclosure that it was possible that various unauthorized deemed exports of EAR-controlled technology to

46

Table of Contents

employees of the Company may have occurred. The Company completed a full audit of the trade compliance program at the time and identified several record keeping and administrative violations which likely resulted in the unintentional and unauthorized disclosure of certain limited data to non-U.S. employees of the Company. Compliance protocols were implemented as part of an internal corrective action process. This disclosure was closed by BIS pursuant to a Warning Letter dated April 20, 2020. While this incident did not result in any monetary or non-monetary penalties, if we are found to be in violation of these laws and regulations in the future, we could face civil and criminal liabilities, monetary and non-monetary penalties, the loss of export or import privileges, debarment and reputational harm.

We currently do not have an export license to transfer or make accessible controlled technology to Mr. Kokorich. As a result, Mr. Kokorich is not currently permitted to access controlled Company technical information or hardware. In order to authorize the deemed export of controlled technology to Mr. Kokorich, we have been pursuing a BIS license since early 2018. We have not yet been able to obtain such a license, and there is no assurance we will ever be able to obtain such a license in the future. If we continue to operate without such a license, Mr. Kokorich will continue to be unable to access this controlled technology for as long as he remains a non-US person. As a result, he does not have access to detailed technical materials, such as elaborate technical drawings and specialized hardware, and he is excluded from in-depth technical discussions around implementation details (or any other discussions of controlled material), although such discussions do not require the attention of the Chief Executive Officer. Momentus also conducts regular training for employees to avoid any export-controlled discussions with Mr. Kokorich. While we believe that if the current restrictions on Mr. Kokorich’s access to controlled technology remain in place, we will be able to continue to operate our business without any material adverse impact on us, it is possible that these restrictions could in the future lead to complications or other issues that may have a material adverse impact on our operations. For example, if these restrictions remain in place, they could create confusion in the market about the Company’s management and technical development. Such confusion would stem from false impressions regarding Mr. Kokorich’s ability to engage with, lead and influence the ongoing work at the Company, and the time and attention of the Company’s management may be diverted in order to mitigate these false impressions and the resulting confusion.

The inability to secure and maintain other necessary export authorizations could negatively impact our ability to compete successfully or to operate our spaceflight business as planned. For example, if we were unable to obtain or maintain our licenses to export certain spacecraft hardware, we would be effectively prohibited from launching our vehicles from certain non-U.S. locations, which would limit the number of launch providers we could use. In addition, if we were unable to obtain a Department of State Technical Assistance Agreement to export certain launch related services, we would experience difficulties or even be unable to perform integration activities necessary to safely integrate our transfer vehicles to non-U.S. launch vehicles. In both cases, these restrictions could lead to higher launch costs which may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. Similarly, if we were unable to secure effective export licensure to authorize the full scope of activity with a foreign partner or supplier, we may be required to make design changes to spacecraft or updates to our supplier chain, which may result in increased costs to us or delays in vehicle launches.

Any changes in the export control regulations or U.S. government licensing policy, such as those necessary to implement U.S. government commitments to multilateral control regimes, may restrict our operations. There is no inherent right to perform an export and given the significant discretion the government has adjudicating such authorizations in furtherance of U.S. national security and foreign policy interests, there can be no assurance we will be successful in our current and future efforts to secure and maintain necessary licenses, registrations, or other U.S. government regulatory approvals.

In addition, U.S. export control laws continue to change. For example, the control lists under the ITAR and the EAR are periodically updated to reclassify specific types of export-controlled technology. For example, any changes to the jurisdictional assignment of controlled data or hardware used by Momentus could result in the need for different export authorizations, each then subject to a subsequent approval. Similarly, should exceptions or exemptions under the EAR or ITAR, respectively, be changed, Momentus’ activities otherwise authorized via these mechanisms may become unavailable and could result in the need for additional export authorizations. Additionally, changes to the administrative implementation of export control laws at the agency level may suddenly change as a result of geo-political events, which could result in existing or proposed export authorization applications being viewed in unpredictable ways, or potentially rejected, as a result of the changed agency level protocol.

Momentus’ co-founder and Chief Executive Officer is an asylum seeker from the Russian Federation and if his petition is not successful, it could adversely impact us.

Momentus’ co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Mikhail Kokorich, who will be the Chief Executive Officer of the Combined Company, is a citizen of the Russian Federation who is seeking asylum in the United States and is authorized to work in the United States while his asylum application is pending. While Momentus believes Mr. Kokorich’s application

47

Table of Contents

will be granted, if for any reason it is not, he may not be able to remain in the United States, which could make it difficult for him to perform his duties as Chief Executive Officer and as a director of the Company and the Combined Company, which would adversely impact us. If he is granted asylum, Mr. Kokorich intends to apply for U.S. citizenship; however while he remains a foreign national, the Company may be affected by political decisions and, as discussed above, the Company will be subject to regulations relating to foreign investment in U.S. companies. See “— Investments in us may be subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations which may impose conditions on or limit certain investors’ ability to purchase our common stock, or after the Business Combination, the Class A common stock of the Combined Company, potentially making the Combined Company Class A common stock less attractive to investors. Our investments in U.S. companies may also be subject to U.S. foreign investment regulations” above in this “Risk Factors” section.

Our business is subject to a wide variety of additional extensive and evolving government laws and regulations. Failure to comply with such laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business.

We are subject to a wide variety of laws and regulations relating to various aspects of our business, including with respect to our space transport operations, employment and labor, health care, tax, privacy and data security, health and safety, and environmental issues. Laws and regulations at the foreign, federal, state and local levels frequently change, especially in relation to new and emerging industries, and we cannot always reasonably predict the impact from, or the ultimate cost of compliance with, current or future regulatory or administrative changes. We monitor these developments and devote a significant amount of management’s time and external resources towards compliance with these laws, regulations and guidelines, and such compliance places a significant burden on management’s time and other resources, and it may limit our ability to expand into certain jurisdictions. Moreover, changes in law, the imposition of new or additional regulations or the enactment of any new or more stringent legislation that impacts our business could require us to change the way we operate and could have a material adverse effect on our sales, profitability, cash flows and financial condition.

Failure to comply with these laws or regulations or failure to satisfy any criteria or other requirement under such laws or regulations, such as with respect to obtaining and maintaining licenses, certificates, authorizations and permits critical for the operation of our business, may result in civil penalties or private lawsuits, or result in a delay or the denial, suspension or revocation of licenses, certificates, authorizations or permits, which would prevent us from operating our business. For example, commercial space launches and the operation of our space transport system in the United States require licenses and permits from the Federal Communications Commission (the “FCC”) and review by other agencies of the U.S. Government, including the Department of Defense and National Aeronautics and Space Administration (“NASA”). License approval can include an interagency review of safety, operational, national security, and foreign policy and international obligations implications, as well as a review of foreign ownership. The Committee for the Assessment of Foreign Participation in the United States Telecommunications Service Sector (the “Committee”) recently requested a review of two of our FCC license applications. However, the Committee subsequently withdrew its request for review, permitting the license applications to proceed.

Additionally, regulation of our industry is still evolving, and new or different laws or regulations could affect our operations, increase direct compliance costs for us or cause any third-party suppliers or contractors to raise the prices they charge us because of increased compliance costs. For example, the FCC has an open notice of proposed rulemaking relating to mitigation of orbital debris, which could affect us and our operations. Application of these laws to our business may negatively impact our performance in various ways, limiting the collaborations we may pursue, further regulating the export and re-export of our products, services, and technology from the United States and abroad, and increasing our costs and the time necessary to obtain required authorization. The adoption of a multi-layered regulatory approach to any one of the laws or regulations to which we are or may become subject, particularly where the layers are in conflict, could require alteration of our manufacturing processes or operational parameters which may adversely impact our business. We may not be in complete compliance with all such requirements at all times and, even when we believe we are in complete compliance, a regulatory agency may determine that we are not.

We have government customers, which subjects us to risks including early termination, audits, investigations, sanctions and penalties.

While we derive limited revenue from contracts with the NASA and the U.S. government, we may enter into additional contracts with the U.S. or foreign governments in the future, and this subjects a larger part of our business to statutes and regulations applicable to companies doing business with the government, including the Federal Acquisition Regulation. These government contracts customarily contain provisions that give the government substantial rights and remedies, many of which are not typically found in commercial contracts and which are unfavorable to contractors.

48

Table of Contents

For instance, most U.S. government agencies include provisions that allow the government to unilaterally terminate or modify contracts for convenience, and in that event, the counterparty to the contract may generally recover only its incurred or committed costs and settlement expenses and profit on work completed prior to the termination. If the government terminates a contract for default, the defaulting party may be liable for any extra costs incurred by the government in procuring undelivered items from another source.

In addition, government contracts normally contain additional requirements that may increase our costs of doing business, reduce our profits, and expose us to liability for failure to comply with these terms and conditions. These requirements include, for example:

•        specialized disclosure and accounting requirements unique to government contracts;

•        financial and compliance audits that may result in potential liability for price adjustments, recoupment of government funds after such funds have been spent, civil and criminal penalties, or administrative sanctions such as suspension or debarment from doing business with the U.S. government;

•        public disclosures of certain contract and company information; and

•        mandatory socioeconomic compliance requirements, including labor requirements, non-discrimination and affirmative action programs and environmental compliance requirements.

Government contracts are also generally subject to greater scrutiny by the government, which can initiate reviews, audits and investigations regarding our compliance with government contract requirements. In addition, if we fail to comply with government contracting laws, regulations and contract requirements, our contracts may be subject to termination, and we may be subject to financial and/or other liability under our contracts, the Federal Civil False Claims Act (including treble damages and other penalties), or criminal law. In particular, the False Claims Act’s “whistleblower” provisions also allow private individuals, including present and former employees, to sue on behalf of the U.S. government. Any penalties, damages, fines, suspension, or damages could adversely affect our ability to operate our business and our financial results.

Failure to comply with federal, state and foreign laws and regulations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection, or the expansion of current or the enactment of new laws or regulations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection, could adversely affect our business and our financial condition.

We collect, store, process, and use personal information and other customer data, including medical information, and we rely in part on third parties that are not directly under our control to manage certain of these operations and to collect, store, process and use payment information. Due to the sensitivity of the personal information and data we and these third parties manage and expect to manage in the future, as well as the nature of our customer base, the security features of our information systems are critical. A variety of federal, state and foreign laws and regulations govern the collection, use, retention, sharing and security of this information. Laws and regulations relating to privacy, data protection and consumer protection are evolving and subject to potentially differing interpretations. These requirements may not be harmonized, may be interpreted and applied in a manner that is inconsistent from one jurisdiction to another or may conflict with other rules or our practices. As a result, our practices may not have complied or may not comply in the future with all such laws, regulations, requirements and obligations. For example, in January 2020, the California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”) took effect, which provides new operational requirements for companies doing business in California. Compliance with the new obligations imposed by the CCPA depends in part on how particular regulators interpret and apply them. If we fail to comply with the CCPA or if regulators assert that we have failed to comply with the CCPA, we may be subject to certain fines or other penalties.

We expect that new industry standards, laws and regulations will continue to be proposed regarding privacy, data protection and information security in many jurisdictions, including the European e-Privacy Regulation, which is currently in draft form. We cannot yet determine the impact such future laws, regulations and standards may have on our business. Complying with these evolving obligations is costly. For instance, expanding definitions and interpretations of what constitutes “personal data” (or the equivalent) within the United States, the European Economic Area (the “EEA”) and elsewhere may increase our compliance costs and legal liability.

We are also subject to additional privacy rules, many of which, such as the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation (the “GDPR”) and national laws supplementing the GDPR, such as in the United Kingdom, are significantly more stringent than those currently enforced in the United States. The law requires companies to meet stringent

49

Table of Contents

requirements regarding the handling of personal data of individuals located in the EEA. The law also includes significant penalties for noncompliance, which may result in monetary penalties of up to the higher of €20.0 million or 4% of a group’s worldwide turnover for the preceding financial year for the most serious violations. The GDPR and other similar regulations require companies to give specific types of notice and informed consent is required for certain actions, and the GDPR also imposes additional conditions in order to satisfy such consent, such as bundled consents.

A significant data breach or any failure, or perceived failure, by us to comply with any federal, state or foreign privacy or consumer protection-related laws, regulations or other principles or orders to which we may be subject or other legal obligations relating to privacy or consumer protection could adversely affect our reputation, brand and business, and may result in claims, investigations, proceedings or actions against us by governmental entities or others or other penalties or liabilities or require us to change our operations and/or cease using certain data sets. Depending on the nature of the information compromised, we may also have obligations to notify users, law enforcement or payment companies about the incident and may need to provide some form of remedy, such as refunds, for the individuals affected by the incident.

We are exposed to risks related to geopolitical and economic factors, laws and regulations and our international business subjects us to numerous political and economic factors, legal requirements, cross-cultural considerations and other risks associated with doing business globally.

Our international business is subject to both U.S. and foreign laws and regulations, including, without limitation, laws and regulations relating to export/import controls, sanctions, technology transfer restrictions, government contracts and procurement, data privacy and protection, anti-corruption laws, including the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), the anti-boycott provisions of the U.S. Export Administration Act, security restrictions and intellectual property. Failure by us, our employees, affiliates, partners or others with whom we work to comply with applicable laws and regulations could result in administrative, civil, commercial or criminal liabilities, including suspension or debarment from government contracts or suspension of our export/import privileges. New regulations and requirements, or changes to existing ones in the various countries in which we operate can significantly increase our costs and risks of doing business internationally.

Changes in laws, regulations, political leadership and environment, and/or security risks may dramatically affect our ability to conduct or continue to conduct business in international markets, including sales to customers and purchases from suppliers outside the United States. We may also be impacted by U.S. and foreign national policies and priorities, political decisions and geopolitical relationships, any of which may be influenced by changes in the threat environment, political leadership, geopolitical uncertainties, world events, bilateral and multi-lateral relationships and economic and political factors, and any of which could impact our operations and/or export authorizations, or delay purchasing decisions or payments and the provision of supplies, goods and services including, without limitation, in connection with any government programs. Global economic conditions and fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could further impact our business. For example, the tightening of credit in financial markets outside of the U.S. could adversely affect the ability of our customers and suppliers to obtain financing and could result in a decrease in or cancellation of orders for our products and services or impact the ability of our customers to make payments.

We also increasingly are dependent on in-country suppliers and we face risks related to their failure to perform in accordance with the contracts and applicable laws, particularly where we rely on a sole source supplier. The services we provide internationally are sometimes in countries with unstable governments, economic or fiscal challenges, military or political conflicts and/or developing legal systems. This may increase the risk to our employees, subcontractors or other third parties, and/or increase the risk of a wide range of liabilities, as well as loss of property or damage to our products.

The occurrence and impact of these factors is difficult to predict, but one or more of them could have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations and/or cash flows.

Data breaches or incidents involving our technology could damage our business, reputation and brand and substantially harm our business and results of operations.

If our data and network infrastructure were to fail, or if we were to suffer an interruption or degradation of services in our data center, third-party cloud, and other infrastructure environments, we could lose important manufacturing and technical data, which could harm our business. Our facilities, as well as the facilities of third-parties that maintain or have access to our data or network infrastructure, are vulnerable to damage or interruption from earthquakes, hurricanes, floods, fires, cyber security attacks, terrorist attacks, power losses, telecommunications failures and similar

50

Table of Contents

events. In the event that our or any third-party provider’s systems or service abilities are hindered by any of the events discussed above, our ability to operate may be impaired. A decision to close facilities without adequate notice, or other unanticipated problems, could adversely impact our operations. Any of the aforementioned risks may be augmented if our or any third-party provider’s business continuity and disaster recovery plans prove to be inadequate. Our data center, third-party cloud, and managed service provider infrastructure also could be subject to break-ins, cyber-attacks, sabotage, intentional acts of vandalism and other misconduct, from a spectrum of actors ranging in sophistication from threats common to most industries to more advanced and persistent, highly organized adversaries. Any security breach, including personal data breaches, or incident, including cybersecurity incidents, that we experience could result in unauthorized access to, misuse of or unauthorized acquisition of our internal sensitive corporate data, such as financial data, intellectual property, or data related to contracts with commercial or government customers or partners. Such unauthorized access, misuse, acquisition, or modification of sensitive data may result in data loss, corruption or alteration, interruptions in our operations or damage to our computer hardware or systems or those of our employees and customers. Moreover, negative publicity arising from these types of disruptions could damage our reputation. We may not carry sufficient business interruption insurance to compensate us for losses that may occur as a result of any events that cause interruptions in our service. Significant unavailability of our services due to attacks could cause users to cease using our services and materially and adversely affect our business, prospects, financial condition and results of operations.

We use software which we have developed in our technology infrastructure, which we seek to continually update and improve. Replacing such systems is often time-consuming and expensive and can also be intrusive to daily business operations. Further, we may not always be successful in executing these upgrades and improvements, which may occasionally result in a failure of our systems. We may experience periodic system interruptions from time to time. Any slowdown or failure of our underlying technology infrastructure could harm our business, reputation and ability to execute on our business plan, which could materially adversely affect our results of operations. Our disaster recovery plan or those of our third-party providers may be inadequate, and our business interruption insurance may not be sufficient to compensate us for the losses that could occur.

Momentus is highly dependent on the services of Mikhail Kokorich, its co-founder and Chief Executive Officer.

Momentus is highly dependent on Mikhail Kokorich, its co-founder and chief executive officer. Mr. Kokorich invented the majority of Momentus’ inventions and remains deeply involved in Momentus’ business, subject to restrictions on his access to certain controlled technology while we seek an export license. See “We are subject to stringent U.S. export and import control laws and regulations. Unfavorable changes in these laws and regulations or U.S. government licensing policies, our failure to secure timely U.S. government authorizations under these laws and regulations, or our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation” above in this section titled “Risk Factors.” The loss of Mr. Kokorich would adversely affect Momentus’ business because his loss could make it more difficult to, among other things, compete with other market participants and retain existing customers or cultivate new ones. Negative public perception of, or negative news related to, Mr. Kokorich may adversely affect Momentus’ brand, relationship with customers or standing in the industry.

We are highly dependent on our senior management team and other highly skilled personnel, and if we are not successful in attracting or retaining highly qualified personnel, we may not be able to successfully implement our business strategy.

Our success depends, in significant part, on the continued services of our senior management team and on our ability to attract, motivate, develop and retain a sufficient number of other skilled personnel, manufacturing and quality assurance, engineering, design, finance, marketing, sales and support personnel. Certain members of our senior management team have extensive experience in the aerospace industry, and we believe that their depth of experience is instrumental to our continued success. The loss of any one or more members of our senior management team, including Momentus’ co-founder and Chief Executive Officer, Mikhail Kokorich, for any reason, including resignation or retirement, could impair our ability to execute our business strategy and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

Competition for qualified highly skilled personnel can be strong, and we can provide no assurance that we will be successful in attracting or retaining such personnel now or in the future. Any inability to recruit, develop and retain qualified employees may result in high employee turnover and may force us to pay significantly higher wages, which may harm our profitability.

Our employees are employed by a professional employer organization.

We contract with a professional employer organization (“PEO”) that administers our human resources, payroll and employee benefits functions. Although we recruit and select our personnel, each of our employees is also an employee of record of the PEO. As a result, our personnel are compensated through the PEO, receive their W-2s from the PEO and are governed by the personnel policies created by the PEO. This relationship permits management to focus on operations and profitability rather than human resource administration, but this relationship also exposes us to some risks. Among other risks, if the PEO fails to adequately withhold or pay employer taxes or to comply with other laws, such as the Fair Labor Standards Act, the Family and Medical Leave Act, the Employee Retirement Income Security Act or state and federal anti-discrimination laws, each of which is outside of our control, we would be liable for such violations, and indemnification provisions with the PEO, if applicable, may not be sufficient to insulate us from those liabilities. Court and administrative proceedings related to these matters could distract management from our business and cause us to incur significant expense. If we were held liable for violations by the PEO, such amounts may adversely affect our profitability and could negatively affect our business and results of operations.

Our operating results may fluctuate significantly, which makes our future operating results difficult to predict and could cause our operating results to fall below expectations or any guidance we may provide.

Our quarterly and annual operating results may fluctuate significantly, which makes it difficult for us to predict our future operating results. These fluctuations may occur due to a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including:

•        the number of payloads we are able to schedule for launch during a period;

•        unexpected weather patterns, natural disasters or other events that force a cancellation or rescheduling of launches;

•        launch vehicle failures which result in cancellation or rescheduling of future launches;

•        the cost of raw materials or supplied components critical for the manufacture and operation of our vehicles;

•        the timing and cost of, and level of investment in, research and development relating to our technologies and our current or future facilities;

•        developments involving our competitors;

•        changes in governmental regulations or in the status of our regulatory approvals or applications;

•        future accounting pronouncements or changes in our accounting policies;

•        the impact of epidemics or pandemics, including current business disruption and related financial impact resulting from the global COVID-19 health crisis; and

•        general market conditions and other factors, including factors unrelated to our operating performance or the operating performance of our competitors.

The individual or cumulative effects of factors discussed above could result in large fluctuations and unpredictability in our quarterly and annual operating results. As a result, comparing our operating results on a period-to-period basis may not be meaningful.

This variability and unpredictability could also result in our failing to meet the expectations of industry or financial analysts or investors for any period. If our revenue or operating results fall below the expectations of analysts or investors or below any guidance we may provide, or if any guidance we provide is below the expectations of analysts or investors, the price of our common stock could decline substantially. Such a stock price decline could occur even when we have met any previously publicly stated guidance we may provide.

We have identified material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. If we fail to develop and maintain an effective system of internal controls, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements or comply with applicable regulations could be adversely affected, which may adversely affect investor confidence in the Combined Company.

In connection with the audit of our financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we identified material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in the design and operating effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting. The material weaknesses relate to the lack of timely preparation of proper financial close and account reconciliation processes, missed accruals and improper accounting for stock issuance costs. The significant deficiencies relate to inadequate evidence to properly support account balances. These material weaknesses and significant deficiencies may not allow for us to have a timely reporting process and may result in errors reported in our reporting process.

We have begun the process of, and we are focused on, designing and implementing effective internal controls measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weaknesses and significant deficiencies. Our efforts include a number of actions:

•        We are designing and implementing additional review procedures within our accounting and finance department to provide more robust and comprehensive internal controls over financial reporting that address the financial statement assertions and risks of material misstatement within our business processes, including implementing a comprehensive close process checklist with additional layers of reviews.

•        We are establishing a more formal process to review and ensure proper cut-off and classification of expenses, including those related to legal expenses incurred by us.

•        We are designing a more formal process to properly review and document evidence to support account balances.

•        We are also actively recruiting additional personnel, in addition to engaging and utilizing third party consultants and specialists to supplement our internal resources business processes.

If not remediated, these material weaknesses could result in material misstatements to the Combined Company’s annual or interim consolidated financial statements that might not be prevented or detected on a timely basis, or in delayed filing of required periodic reports. If the Combined Company is unable to assert that its internal control over financial reporting is effective, or when required in the future, if the Combined Company’s independent registered public accounting firm is unable to express an unqualified opinion as to the effectiveness of the internal control over financial reporting, investors may lose confidence in the accuracy and completeness of the Combined Company’s financial reports, the market price of the Common Stock could be adversely affected and the Combined Company could become subject to litigation or investigations by Nasdaq, the SEC, or other regulatory authorities, which could require additional financial and management resources.

As part of growing our business, we may make acquisitions. If we fail to successfully select, execute or integrate our acquisitions, then our business, results of operations and financial condition could be materially adversely affected, and the stock price of the Combined Company could decline.

From time to time, we may undertake acquisitions to add new products and technologies, acquire talent, gain new sales channels or enter into new markets or sales territories. In addition to possible stockholder approval, we may need approvals and licenses from relevant government authorities for the acquisitions and to comply with any applicable laws and regulations, which could result in increased delay and costs, and may disrupt our business strategy if it fails to do so. Furthermore, acquisitions and the subsequent integration of new assets, businesses, key personnel, customers, vendors and suppliers require significant attention from our management and could result in a diversion of resources from our existing business, which in turn could have an adverse effect on our operations. Acquired assets or businesses may not generate the financial results we expect. Acquisitions could result in the use of substantial amounts of cash, potentially dilutive issuances of equity securities, the occurrence of significant goodwill impairment charges, amortization expenses for other intangible assets and exposure to potential unknown liabilities of the acquired business. Moreover, the costs of identifying and consummating acquisitions may be significant.

53

To date, we have limited experience with acquisitions and the integration of acquired technology and personnel. Failure to successfully identify, complete, manage and integrate acquisitions could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition and results of operations and could cause the Combined Company’s stock price to decline.

Momentus’ ability to use its net operating loss carryforwards and certain other tax attributes may be limited.

As of December 31, 2019, Momentus had $11.3 million of U.S. federal and $11.5 million of state net operating loss carryforwards available to reduce future taxable income. The $11.3 million in U.S. federal operating loss carryforwards will be carried forward indefinitely for U.S. federal tax purposes. While the federal NOLs can be carried forward indefinitely, California net operating losses begin to expire in the year ending December 31, 2038. It is possible that Momentus will not generate taxable income in time to use these net operating loss carryforwards before their expiration or at all. Under legislative changes made in December 2017, U.S. federal net operating losses incurred in 2018 and in future years may be carried forward indefinitely, but the deductibility of such net operating losses is limited. It is uncertain if and to what extent various states will conform to the newly enacted federal tax law. In addition, the federal and state net operating loss carryforwards and certain tax credits may be subject to significant limitations under Section 382 and Section 383 of the U.S. Tax Code, respectively, and similar provisions of state law. Under those sections of the U.S. Tax Code, if a corporation undergoes an “ownership change,” the corporation’s ability to use its pre-change net operating loss carryforwards and other pre-change attributes, such as research tax credits, to offset its post-change income or tax may be limited. In general, an “ownership change” will occur if there is a cumulative change in our ownership by “5-percent shareholders” that exceeds 50 percentage points over a rolling three-year period. Similar rules may apply under state tax laws. Momentus has not yet undertaken an analysis of whether the Business Combination constitutes an “ownership change” for purposes of Section 382 and Section 383 of the U.S. Tax Code.

The historical financial results of Momentus and our unaudited pro forma financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus may not be indicative of what our actual financial position or results of operations would have been.

The historical financial results of Momentus included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus do not reflect the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows we would have achieved as a standalone company during the periods presented or that we will achieve in the future. This is primarily the result of the following factors:

•        we will incur additional ongoing costs as a result of the Business Combination, including costs related to public company reporting, investor relations and compliance with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act; and

•        our capital structure is different from that reflected in Momentus’ historical financial statements prior to the Business Combination.

Similarly, our unaudited pro forma financial information in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only. Accordingly, such pro forma financial information may not be indicative of our future operating or financial performance and our actual financial condition and results of operations may vary materially from our pro forma results of operations and balance sheet contained elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

We may become involved in litigation that may materially adversely affect us.

From time to time, we may become involved in various legal proceedings relating to matters incidental to the ordinary course of our business, including intellectual property, commercial, product liability, employment, class action, whistleblower and other litigation and claims, and governmental and other regulatory investigations and proceedings. Such matters can be time-consuming, divert management’s attention and resources, cause us to incur significant expenses or liability or require us to change our business practices. Because of the potential risks, expenses and uncertainties of litigation, we may, from time to time, settle disputes, even where we believe that we have meritorious claims or defenses. Because litigation is inherently unpredictable, we cannot assure you that the results of any of these actions will not have a material adverse effect on our business.

Momentus’ management team has limited experience managing a public company.

Most of the members of Momentus’ management team have limited experience managing a publicly traded company, interacting with public company investors, and complying with the increasingly complex laws pertaining to public companies. Additionally, many members of Momentus’ management team were recently hired, including its President, Fred Kennedy and its Chief Financial Officer, Jikun Kim. Momentus’ management team may not successfully or efficiently manage their new roles and responsibilities. Momentus’ transition to being a public company subjects it to significant regulatory oversight and reporting obligations under the federal securities laws and the continuous scrutiny of securities analysts and investors. These new obligations and constituents will require significant attention from Momentus’ senior management and could divert their attention away from the day-to-day management of Momentus’ business, which could adversely affect Momentus’ business, financial condition, and operating results.

Natural disasters, unusual weather conditions, epidemic outbreaks, terrorist acts and political events could disrupt our business and vehicle launch schedules.

The occurrence of one or more natural disasters such as fires, floods and earthquakes, unusual weather conditions, epidemic or pandemic outbreaks, terrorist attacks or disruptive political events where our facilities or the launch facilities our transport partners use are located, or where our third-party suppliers’ facilities are located, could adversely affect our business. Natural disasters including tornados, hurricanes, floods and earthquakes may damage our facilities, the launch facilities we use or those of our suppliers, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations. Severe weather, such as rainfall, snowfall or extreme temperatures, may impact the ability for launches to occur as planned, resulting in additional expense to reschedule, thereby reducing our sales and profitability. Terrorist attacks, actual or threatened acts of war or the escalation of current hostilities, or any other military or trade disruptions impacting our domestic or foreign suppliers of components of our products, may impact our operations by, among other things, causing supply chain disruptions and increases in commodity prices, which could adversely affect our raw materials or transportation costs. These events also could cause or act to prolong an economic recession or depression in the United States or abroad, such as the current business disruption and related financial impact resulting from the global COVID-19 health crisis. To the extent these events also impact one or more of our suppliers or result in the closure of any of their facilities or our facilities, we may be unable to maintain launch schedules or fulfill our other contracts.

Risks Related to Ownership of Combined Company Class A Common Stock

There can be no assurance that Combined Company Class A common stock that will be issued in connection with the Business Combination will be approved for listing on Nasdaq following the Closing, or that we will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq.

SRAC’s public units, Class A common stock and public warrants are currently listed on Nasdaq and, in connection with the Closing, we intend to list the Combined Company Class A common stock and the public warrants on Nasdaq under the symbols “MNTS” and “MNTSW.” The Combined Company’s continued eligibility for listing may depend on, among other things, the number of public shares that are redeemed. There can be no assurance that Combined Company will be able to comply with the continued listing standards of Nasdaq. If, after the Business Combination, Nasdaq delists Combined Company Class A common stock from trading on its exchange for failure to meet the listing standards, our stockholders could face significant material adverse consequences including:

•        a limited availability of market quotations for our securities;

•        reduced liquidity for our securities;

•        a determination that Combined Company Class A common stock is a “penny stock” which will require brokers trading in Combined Company Class A common stock to adhere to more stringent rules and possibly result in a reduced level of trading activity in the secondary trading market for our securities;

•        a limited amount of news and analyst coverage; and

•        a decreased ability to issue additional securities or obtain additional financing in the future.

An active trading market for Combined Company Class A common stock may never develop or be sustained, which may make it difficult to sell the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock you receive.

Following the Business Combination, the price of Combined Company Class A common stock may fluctuate significantly due to the market’s reaction to the Business Combination, general market and economic conditions and forecasts, our general business condition and the release of our financial reports. An active trading market for Combined Company Class A common stock may not develop or continue or, if developed, may not be sustained, which would make it difficult for you to sell your shares of Combined Company Class A common stock at an attractive price (or at all). The market price of Combined Company Class A common stock may decline below your deemed purchase price, and you may not be able to sell your shares of Combined Company Class A common stock at or above that price (or at all). Additionally, if Combined Company Class A common stock is delisted from Nasdaq for any reason, and is quoted on the OTC Bulletin Board, an inter-dealer automated quotation system for equity securities that is not a national securities exchange, the liquidity and price of Combined Company Class A common stock may be more limited than if we were quoted or listed on Nasdaq or another national securities exchange. You may be unable to sell your Combined Company Class A common stock unless a market can be established or sustained.

The market price of Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants may be volatile, which could cause the value of your investment to decline.

If an active market for Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants develops and continues, the trading price of Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants following the Business Combination could be volatile and subject to wide fluctuations. The trading price of Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants following the Business Combination will depend on many factors, including those described in this “Risk Factors” section, many of which are beyond our control and may not be related to our operating performance. Accordingly, the valuation ascribed to the Combined Company in the Business Combination may not be indicative of the price that will prevail in the trading market following the Business Combination. Any of the factors listed below could have a material adverse effect on your investment in Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants, and Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants may trade at prices significantly below the price you were deemed to have paid for them. In such circumstances, the trading price of Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants may not recover and may experience a further decline.

Factors affecting the trading price of Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants following the Business Combination may include:

•        actual or anticipated fluctuations in our quarterly financial results or the quarterly financial results of companies perceived to be similar to us;

•        changes in the market’s expectations about our operating results;

•        the public’s reaction to our press releases, our other public announcements and our filings with the SEC;

•        speculation in the press or investment community;

•        actual or anticipated developments in our business or our competitors’ businesses or the competitive landscape generally;

•        our operating results failing to meet the expectation of securities analysts or investors in a particular period;

•        changes in financial estimates and recommendations by securities analysts concerning us or the market in general;

•        operating and stock price performance of other companies that investors deem comparable to us;

•        publications of research reports by securities analysts about us, our competitors, or the space industry;

•        changes in laws and regulations affecting our business;

•        commencement of, or involvement in, litigation involving us;

56

Table of Contents

•        changes in our capital structure, such as future issuances of securities or the incurrence of additional debt;

•        the volume of Combined Company Class A common stock available for public sale;

•        any major change in Combined Company board of directors or management;

•        sales of substantial amounts of Combined Company Class A common stock by directors, officers, significant stockholders or the PIPE Investors or the perception that such sales could occur;

•        general economic and political conditions such as recessions, interest rates, fuel prices, trade wars, pandemics (such as COVID-19), epidemics, currency fluctuations and acts of war or terrorism; and

•        other risk factors listed under this “Risk Factors” section.

Broad market and industry factors may materially harm the market price of Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants, regardless of our actual operating performance. The stock market in general and Nasdaq have, from time to time, experienced extreme price and volume fluctuations that have often been unrelated or disproportionate to the operating performance of the particular companies affected. The trading prices and valuations of these stocks, and of Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants, may not be predictable. A loss of investor confidence in the market for the stocks of other companies that investors perceive to be similar to us could depress our stock price regardless of our business, prospects, financial conditions or results of operations. A decline in the market price of Combined Company Class A common stock or warrants also could adversely affect our ability to issue additional securities and our ability to obtain additional financing in the future.

In addition, in the past, following periods of volatility in the overall market and the market prices of particular companies’ securities, securities class action litigations have often been instituted against these companies. Litigation of this type, if instituted against us, could result in substantial costs and a diversion of our management’s attention and resources. Any adverse determination in any such litigation or any amounts paid to settle any such actual or threatened litigation could require that we make significant payments.

The Combined Company’s issuance of additional capital stock in connection with financings, acquisitions, investments, our stock incentive plans or otherwise will dilute all other stockholders.

We expect to issue additional capital stock in the future that will result in dilution to all other stockholders. We expect to grant equity awards to our employees, directors and consultants under our equity incentive plans. We may also raise capital through equity financings in the future. As part of our business strategy, we may acquire or make investments in complementary companies, products or technologies and issue equity securities to pay for any such acquisition or investment. Any such issuances of additional capital stock may cause stockholders to experience significant dilution of their ownership interests and the per share value of Combined Company Class A common stock to decline.

Future sales of shares by existing stockholders and future exercise of registration rights may adversely affect the market price of Combined Company Class A common stock.

Sales of a substantial number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock in the public market after the Closing, or the perception that such sales could occur, could adversely affect the market price of Combined Company Class A common stock and may make it more difficult for you to sell your Class A common stock at a time and price that you deem appropriate. Immediately following the Closing and assuming consummation of the sale of shares pursuant to the PIPE Investment, there will be an estimated 141,627,373 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock outstanding, assuming that none of SRAC’s existing public stockholders exercise their redemption rights, and the Momentus stockholders, the Sponsor and the PIPE Investors will collectively own approximately 87.8% of the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock. Assuming redemptions of all but 7,474,651 public shares (being our estimate of the maximum number of public shares that could be redeemed in connection with the Business Combination in order to satisfy the related minimum cash condition contained in the Merger Agreement) are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination, in the aggregate, the collective ownership of the Momentus stockholders, the Sponsor and the PIPE Investors would rise to 94.4% of the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock. Immediately following the Closing, and assuming the no redemption scenario, we expect that approximately 4.1% of the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock will be held by the Sponsor and its affiliate SRAC Partners. The Sponsor and SRAC’s executive officers and directors

entered into a letter agreement with SRAC, pursuant to which they agreed not to transfer, assign or sell (except to certain permitted transferees) (a) any founder shares until six months after the Closing or earlier if subsequent to the Business Combination, (i) the last sale price of Combined Company Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after the initial business combination (which clause (a) has been amended by the Sponsor Agreement) or (ii) the Combined Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of the Combined Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of the Combined Company Class A common stock for cash, securities or other property and (b) any private placement units, private placement shares or private placement warrants (or shares of Combined Company Class A common stock upon exercise thereof) until 30 days after the completion of SRAC’s initial business combination. However, following the expiration of such lock-ups, Sponsor will not be restricted from selling its shares of Combined Company Class A common stock, other than by applicable securities laws. Additionally, neither the Momentus stockholders nor the PIPE Investors will be restricted from selling any of their shares of our Combined Company Class A common stock following the Closing, other than by applicable securities laws. Sales of substantial amounts of Combined Company Class A common stock in the public market after the Business Combination, or the perception that such sales will occur, could adversely affect the market price of Combined Company Class A common stock and make it difficult for us to raise funds through securities offerings in the future.

At the consummation of the Mergers, SRAC, Sponsor, certain existing holder(s) of SRAC capital stock (including SRAC Partners) and certain Company stockholders, in each case who will receive SRAC Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement in respect of the shares of SRAC Class A common stock issued to Sponsor and such SRAC stockholders in connection with the transactions set forth above. Pursuant to such agreement, such holders and their permitted transferees will be entitled to certain customary registration rights, including, among other things, demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cut-back provisions. Pursuant to the Amended and Registration Rights Agreement, Sponsor and SRAC Partners will agree not to sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of shares of SRAC Class A common stock or other securities exercisable therefor for certain time periods specified therein.

Because we have no current plans to pay cash dividends on Combined Company Class A common stock, you may not receive any return on investment unless you sell your shares of for a price greater than that which you are deemed to have paid for it.

We have no current plans to pay cash dividends on Combined Company Class A common stock. The declaration, amount and payment of any future dividends will be at the sole discretion of Combined Company board of directors. Combined Company board of directors may take into account general and economic conditions, our financial condition and operating results, our available cash, current and anticipated cash needs, capital requirements, contractual, legal, tax and regulatory restrictions, implications on the payment of dividends by us to our stockholders and such other factors as Combined Company board of directors may deem relevant. In addition, the terms of any future indebtedness would likely contain a number of restrictive covenants that impose significant operating and financial restrictions on us, including restricting or limiting our ability to pay cash dividends. Accordingly, the Combined Company may not pay any dividends on Combined Company Class A common stock in the foreseeable future.

If securities and industry analysts do not publish or cease publishing research or reports, or publish inaccurate or unfavorable research or reports, about our business or our market, our stock price and trading volume could decline.

The trading market for Combined Company Class A common stock and warrants will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities and industry analysts publish about us, our business and our market. Securities and industry analysts do not currently, and may never, publish research on SRAC or the Combined Company. If securities and industry analysts do not commence coverage of the Combined Company, the Combined Company’s stock price and trading volume would likely be negatively impacted. In the event securities or industry analysts initiate coverage, if one or more of the analysts who cover us downgrade our stock, publish inaccurate or unfavorable research about our business or our market, or provide more favorable relative recommendations about our competitors, the Combined Company’s stock price would likely decline. If one or more of these analysts cease coverage of us or fail to publish reports on us regularly, we could lose visibility in the financial markets and demand for the Combined Company’s stock could decrease, which might cause the Combined Company’s stock price and trading volume to decline.

The Combined Company’s charter documents and Delaware law could prevent a takeover that stockholders consider favorable and could also reduce the market price of the Combined Company’s stock.

Assuming the passage of the Charter Amendment Proposal, certain provisions of the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter and the Combined Company Amended and Restated Bylaws, as they will be in effect following the Closing, may have the effect of rendering more difficult, delaying, or preventing a change of control or changes in the Combined Company’s management. These provisions will provide for, among other things:

•        a classified board of directors whose members serve staggered three-year terms;

•        the authorization of “blank check” preferred stock, which could be issued by the Combined Company’s board of directors without stockholder approval and may contain voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights superior to our Class A common stock;

•        a limitation on the ability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers;

•        a requirement that special meetings of our stockholders can be called only by our board of directors acting by a written resolution by a majority the Combined Company’s directors then in office), the Chairperson of the Combined Company’s board of directors, the Combined Company’s Chief Executive Officer or our Lead Independent Director;

•        a requirement of advance notice of stockholder proposals for business to be conducted at meetings of the Combined Company’s stockholders and for nominations of candidates for election to the Combined Company’s board of directors;

•        a requirement that our directors may be removed only for cause and by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the stockholders;

•        a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent;

•        a requirement that vacancies on our board of directors may be filled only by a majority of directors then in office or by a sole remaining director (subject to limited exceptions), even though less than a quorum; and

•        a requirement of the approval of the Combined Company board of directors or the holders of at least two-thirds of our outstanding shares of capital stock to amend the Combined Company Amended and Restated Bylaws and certain provisions of Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter.

These provisions may frustrate or prevent any attempts by stockholders of the Combined Company to replace or remove the Combined Company’s management by making it more difficult for stockholders to replace members of the Combined Company board of directors, which is responsible for appointing the members of our management. In addition, institutional stockholder representative groups, stockholder activists and others may disagree with our corporate governance provisions or other practices, including anti-takeover provisions, such as those listed above. We generally will consider recommendations of institutional stockholder representative groups, but we will make decisions based on what our board and management believe to be in the best long-term interests of the Combined Company and stockholders; however, these groups could make recommendations to our stockholders against our practices or our board members if they disagree with our positions.

Finally, upon the Closing, we will not opt out of the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL, which generally prohibits a Delaware corporation from engaging in any of a broad range of business combinations with any “interested” stockholder for a period of three years following the date on which the stockholder became an “interested” stockholder.

These and other provisions in the proposed charter and the amended and restated bylaws of the Combined Company to be in effect upon the closing of the Business Combination and under Delaware law could discourage potential takeover attempts, reduce the price investors might be willing to pay in the future for shares of Class A common stock of the Combined Company and result in the market price of Class A common stock being lower than it would be without these provisions.

The Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter will provide that a state or federal court located within the state of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a chosen judicial forum for disputes with the Combined Company or its directors, officers, employees, or stockholders.

SRAC’s current charter provides and, assuming the passage of the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter that will be effective following the Closing will provide, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that unless we consent in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for the following types of actions or proceedings under Delaware statutory or common law:

•        any derivative action or proceeding brought on behalf of the Combined Company;

•        any action or proceeding asserting a claim of breach of a fiduciary duty owed by or any wrongdoing by any current or former director, officer, employee or agent of the Combined Company or any stockholder to the Combined Company or the Combined Company’s stockholders;

•        any action or proceeding asserting a claim against the Combined Company or any current or former director, officer or other employee of the Combined Company or any stockholder in such stockholder’s capacity as such arising out of or pursuant to any provision of the DGCL, the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter or the Combined Company Amended and Restated Bylaws (as each may be amended from time to time);

•        any action or proceeding to interpret, apply, enforce or determine the validity of the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter and/or the Combined Company Amended and Restated Bylaws (including any right, obligation or remedy thereunder);

•        any action or proceeding as to which the DGCL confers jurisdiction to the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware; or

•        any action or proceeding asserting a claim governed by the internal affairs doctrine, in all cases to the fullest extent permitted by law and subject to the court’s having personal jurisdiction over the indispensable parties named as defendants.

This provision would not apply to suits brought to enforce a duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act or any claim for which the U.S. federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. The Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter will further provide that, unless the Combined Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America will be the exclusive forum for resolving any complaint asserting a cause of action arising under the Securities Act or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

The Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter will provide that a state or federal court located within the state of Delaware will be the exclusive forum for substantially all disputes between us and our stockholders, which could limit our stockholders’ ability to obtain a chosen judicial forum for disputes with the Combined Company or its directors, officers, employees, or stockholders. If any other court of competent jurisdiction were to find either exclusive-forum provision in Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter to be inapplicable or unenforceable, we may incur additional costs associated with resolving the dispute in other jurisdictions, which could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations. In addition, although the Delaware Supreme Court ruled in March 2020 that federal forum selection provisions purporting to require claims under the Securities Act be brought in federal court were “facially valid” under Delaware law, there is uncertainty as to whether other courts will enforce our federal forum selection clause.

Risks Related to the Business Combination and SRAC

The Sponsor and each of SRAC’s officers and directors have agreed to vote in favor of the Business Combination and the other Proposals described herein to be presented at the Special Meeting, regardless of how our public stockholders vote.

The Sponsor and each of SRAC’s officers and directors have agreed to, among other things, vote in favor of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals described herein to be presented at the Special Meeting. As of the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, the initial stockholders and an affiliate of our Sponsor, SRAC Partners, collectively own approximately 21.7% of the outstanding shares of SRAC common stock. Accordingly, it is more likely that the necessary stockholder approval will be received than would be the case if the initial stockholders agreed to vote their founder shares and private placement shares in accordance with the majority of the votes cast by our public stockholders.

Neither the SRAC Board nor any committee thereof obtained a third party valuation in determining whether or not to pursue the Business Combination.

Neither the SRAC Board nor any committee thereof is required to obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking or accounting firm that the price that we are paying for Momentus is fair to us from a financial point of view. Neither the SRAC Board nor any committee thereof obtained a third party valuation in connection with the Business Combination. In analyzing the Business Combination, the SRAC Board conducted due diligence on Momentus. The SRAC Board also consulted with the Company’s management and its legal counsel, financial advisor and other advisors and considered a number of factors, uncertainty and risks, including, but not limited to, those discussed under “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — SRAC’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination,” and concluded that the Business Combination was in the best interest of SRAC’s stockholders. Accordingly, investors will be relying solely on the judgment of the SRAC Board in valuing Momentus, and the SRAC Board may not have properly valued such businesses. The lack of a third party valuation may also lead an increased number of stockholders to vote against the Business Combination or demand redemption of their shares, which could potentially impact our ability to consummate the Business Combination.

Since the Sponsor and the members of SRAC’s management team have interests that are different, or in addition to (and which may conflict with), the interests of our stockholders, a conflict of interest may have existed in determining whether the Business Combination is appropriate as our initial business combination. Such interests include that the Sponsor will lose its entire investment in us if our business combination is not completed.

When you consider the recommendation of the SRAC Board in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals included herein, you should keep in mind that the Sponsor and SRAC’s directors have interests in such Proposal that are different from, or in addition to, those of our stockholders and warrant holders generally. The SRAC Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating and negotiating the Business Combination and Merger Agreement and in recommending to our stockholders that they vote in favor of the Proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal. SRAC stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal. These interests include, among other things:

•        If SRAC does not consummate a business combination by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date), SRAC would (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of SRAC’s remaining stockholders and SRAC’s Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, the 4,136,029 shares of SRAC Class B common stock owned by the Sponsor and the 176,471 shares of SRAC Class B common stock owned by SRAC Partners would be worthless because following the redemption of the public shares, we would likely

61

Table of Contents

have few, if any, net assets and because the Sponsor and each of SRAC’s officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if we fail to complete a business combination within the required period. Additionally, in such event, the 495,000 private placement units that the Sponsor paid $4.95 million for will expire worthless. All of SRAC’s officers and directors have a direct or indirect economic interest in such shares and private placement units. The 4,312,500 shares of SRAC Class A common stock that the initial stockholders and SRAC Partners will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had aggregate market value of approximately $71.2 million based upon the closing price of $16.50 per share of SRAC Class A common stock on Nasdaq on December 11, 2020, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Given such shares of Class A common stock will be subject to certain restrictions, we believe such shares have less value. The 495,000 private placement units that the Sponsor will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $9.7 million based upon the closing price of $19.50 per unit on Nasdaq on December 11, 2020, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

•        Our Sponsor holds 495,000 private placement units and Cantor owns 50,000 private placement units that would expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated.

•        Our Sponsor, officers and directors have agreed not to redeem any of the founder shares or shares of Class A common stock (including private placement shares) held by them in connection with a stockholder vote to approve the Business Combination.

•        Our Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 for its founder shares and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, accounting for the transfer of shares to SRAC Partners, which if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $71.2 million, based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on December 11, 2020.

•        If the Trust Account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced below $10.00 per public share, or such lesser amount per public share as is in the Trust Account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account.

•        The continuation of Brian Kabot, one of our existing directors, as a director of the Combined Company following the Closing;

•        Our officers may not become a director or officer of any other blank check company until we have entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination or fail to complete an initial business combination by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date).

Our Sponsor, officers and directors will lose their entire investment in us if an initial business combination is not completed.

Our existing officers and directors will be eligible for continued indemnification and continued coverage under a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy after the Business Combination.

We will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with our Sponsor and certain existing holder(s) of our capital stock (including SRAC Partners) and certain Momentus stockholders, which provides for registration rights to such parties.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of SRAC’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what such director(s) may believe is in the best interests of SRAC and its stockholders and what such director(s) may believe is best for such director(s) in determining to recommend that stockholders vote for the Proposals. See the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Interests of Certain SRAC Persons in the Business Combination” for a further discussion of these considerations.

62

Table of Contents

The financial and personal interests of the Sponsor as well as SRAC’s directors may have influenced their motivation in identifying and selecting Momentus as a business combination target, completing an initial business combination with Momentus and influencing the operation of the business following the initial business combination. In considering the recommendations of SRAC’s Board to vote for the Proposals, its stockholders should consider these interests.

The exercise of the SRAC management team’s discretion in agreeing to changes or waivers in the terms of the Merger Agreement, including closing conditions, may result in a conflict of interest when determining whether such changes to the terms or waivers of conditions are appropriate and in SRAC’s stockholders’ best interest.

In the period leading up to the Closing, events may occur that, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, would require SRAC to agree to amend the Merger Agreement, to consent to certain actions taken by Momentus or to waive rights that SRAC is entitled to under the Merger Agreement, including those related to Closing conditions. Such events could arise because of changes in the course of Momentus’ businesses or a request by Momentus to undertake actions that would otherwise be prohibited by the terms of the Merger Agreement or the occurrence of other events that would have a material adverse effect on Momentus’ businesses and would entitle SRAC to terminate the Merger Agreement. In any of such circumstances, it would be at SRAC’s discretion, acting through its Board, to grant its consent or waive those rights. The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of the directors described in the preceding risk factors (and described elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus) may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what such director(s) may believe is best for SRAC and its stockholders and what such director(s) may believe is best for such director(s) in determining whether or not to take the requested action. As of the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, SRAC does not believe there will be any changes or waivers that SRAC’s management team would be likely to make after the approval of the Business Combination Proposal by SRAC’s stockholders has been obtained. While certain changes could be made without further stockholder approval, SRAC will circulate a new or amended proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and resolicit SRAC’s stockholders if changes to the terms of the transaction that would have a material impact on its stockholders are required prior to the vote on the Business Combination Proposal.

SRAC and Momentus will incur significant transaction and transition costs in connection with the Business Combination.

SRAC and Momentus have both incurred and expect to incur significant, non-recurring costs in connection with consummating the Business Combination and operating as a public company following the Closing. We and Momentus may also incur additional costs to retain key employees. Certain transaction expenses incurred in connection with the Merger Agreement (including the Business Combination), including all legal, accounting, consulting, investment banking and other fees, expenses and costs, will be for the account of, or paid by, the party incurring such fees, expenses and costs, or otherwise paid by the Combined Company following the Closing.

SRAC’s transaction expenses as a result of the Business Combination are currently estimated at approximately $10 million in deferred underwriting discount and other advisory fees and transaction expenses. The amount of the deferred underwriting discount will not be adjusted for any shares that are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination. The per-share amount we will distribute to stockholders who properly exercise their redemption rights will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting discount and after such redemptions, the per-share value of shares held by non-redeeming stockholders will reflect our obligation to pay the deferred underwriting discount. However, up to $3.0 million of the deferred underwriting fee is subject to forfeiture in the event that redemptions in connection with the Business Combination exceed certain thresholds.

The announcement of the proposed Business Combination could disrupt Momentus’ relationships with its customers, suppliers and others, as well as its operating results and business generally.

Whether or not the Business Combination is ultimately consummated, as a result of uncertainty related to the proposed transactions, risks relating to the impact of the announcement of the Business Combination on Momentus’ business include the following:

•        its employees may experience uncertainty about their future roles, which might adversely affect Momentus’ ability to retain and hire key personnel and other employees;

63

Table of Contents

•        clients, affiliated professional entities, suppliers and other parties with which Momentus maintains business relationships may experience uncertainty about its future and rescind their deposits, seek alternative relationships with third parties, seek to alter their business relationships with Momentus. or fail to extend an existing relationship with Momentus; and  

•        Momentus has expended and will continue to expend significant costs, fees and expenses for professional services and transaction costs in connection with the proposed Business Combination.

If any of the aforementioned risks were to materialize, they could lead to significant costs which may impact Momentus’ results of operations and cash available to fund its businesses.

Subsequent to the Closing, we may be exposed to unknown or contingent liabilities and may be required to subsequently take write-downs or write-offs, restructuring and impairment or other charges that could have a significant negative effect on our financial condition, results of operations and the price of our securities, which could cause you to lose some or all of your investment.

We cannot assure you that the due diligence conducted in relation to Momentus has identified all material issues or risks associated with Momentus, its business or the industry in which it competes. Furthermore, we cannot assure you that factors outside of Momentus’ and our control will not later arise. As a result of these factors, we may be exposed to liabilities and incur additional costs and expenses and we may be forced to later write-down or write-off assets, restructure our operations, or incur impairment or other charges that could result in our reporting losses. Even if our due diligence has identified certain risks, unexpected risks may arise and previously known risks may materialize in a manner not consistent with our preliminary risk analysis. If any of these risks materialize, this could have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations and could contribute to negative market perceptions about our securities or the Combined Company. Additionally, we have no indemnification rights against the Momentus stockholders under the Merger Agreement and all of the purchase price consideration will be delivered to the Momentus stockholders at the Closing. Accordingly, any stockholders or warrant holders of SRAC who choose to remain Combined Company stockholders or warrant holders following the Business Combination could suffer a reduction in the value of their shares and warrants. Such stockholders or warrant holders are unlikely to have a remedy for such reduction in value.

The historical financial results of Momentus and unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus may not be indicative of what our actual financial position or results of operations would have been.

The historical financial results of Momentus included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus do not reflect the financial condition, results of operations or cash flows Momentus would have achieved as a public company during the periods presented or those we will achieve in the future. The Combined Company’s financial condition and future results of operations could be materially different from amounts reflected in Momentus’ historical financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, so it may be difficult for investors to compare the Combined Company’s future results to historical results or to evaluate its relative performance or trends in its business.

Similarly, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus is presented for illustrative purposes only and has been prepared based on a number of assumptions including, but not limited to, SRAC being treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes in the Business Combination, the total debt obligations and the cash and cash equivalents of Momentus on the date the Business Combination closes and the number of our public shares that are redeemed in connection with the Business Combination. Accordingly, such pro forma financial information may not be indicative of the Combined Company’s future operating or financial performance and the Combined Company’s actual financial condition and results of operations may vary materially from the pro forma results of operations and balance sheet contained elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, including as a result of such assumptions not being accurate. Please see the section titled “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information.”

We currently intend to only complete one Business Combination with the proceeds of our IPO and the sale of the private placement units, which will cause us to be solely dependent on Momentus’ business. This lack of diversification may negatively impact our operations and profitability.

We currently intend to only complete one business combination with the proceeds of our IPO and the sale of the private placement units. By completing our Business Combination with only a single entity our lack of diversification may subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory risks. Further, we would not be able to diversify our operations or benefit from the possible spreading of risks or offsetting of losses, unlike other entities which may have the resources to complete several business combinations in different industries or different areas of a single industry. Accordingly, the prospects for our success will be solely dependent upon the business and financial performance of Momentus.

This lack of diversification may subject us to numerous economic, competitive and regulatory risks, any or all of which may have a substantial adverse impact upon the particular industry in which we may operate subsequent to the Business Combination. See “— Risks Related to the Business and Industry of Momentus” for risks we may face as a result of consummating the Business Combination with Momentus.

We have a minimum cash requirement. This requirement may make it more difficult for us to complete the Business Combination as contemplated.

The Merger Agreement provides that Momentus’ obligation to consummate the Business Combination is conditioned on, among other things, as of the Closing, SRAC having at least $250,000,000 in available cash (including proceeds in connection with the PIPE Investment and the funds in the Trust Account) immediately prior to the effective time of the consummation of the Mergers (after taking into account (x) payments required to satisfy SRAC Share Redemptions and (y) SRAC’s transaction costs).

In addition, pursuant to SRAC’s existing charter, in no event will we redeem public shares in an amount that would result in our net tangible assets (as determined in accordance with Rule 3a51-1(g)(1) of the Exchange Act) being less than $5,000,001. If such conditions are not met, and such conditions are not or cannot be waived under the terms of the Merger Agreement, then the Merger Agreement could terminate and the proposed Business Combination may not be consummated.

If such conditions are waived and the Business Combination is consummated, the cash held by the Combined Company and our subsidiaries (including Momentus) in the aggregate, after the Closing may not be sufficient to allow us to operate and pay our bills as they become due. Furthermore, our affiliates are not obligated to make loans to us or invest in us in the future after the Business Combination. The additional exercise of redemption rights with respect to a large number of our public stockholders may make us unable to take such actions as may be desirable in order to optimize our capital structure after the Closing and we may not be able to raise additional financing from unaffiliated parties necessary to fund our expenses and liabilities after the Closing. Any such event in the future may negatively impact the analysis regarding our ability to continue as a going concern at such time.

The Sponsor, Momentus or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors or respective affiliates may elect to purchase shares from public stockholders prior to the Closing, which may influence the vote on the Business Combination and reduce the public “float” of our Class A common stock.

At any time at or prior to the Business Combination, subject to applicable securities laws (including with respect to material nonpublic information), the Sponsor, the Momentus stockholders or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors or respective affiliates may (1) purchase public shares from institutional and other investors who vote, or indicate an intention to vote, against any of the proposals to be voted upon at the Special Meeting, or elect to redeem, or indicate an intention to redeem, public shares, (2) execute agreements to purchase such shares from such investors in the future, or (3) enter into transactions with such investors and others to provide them with incentives to acquire public shares, vote their public shares in favor of the proposals to be voted upon at the Special Meeting or not redeem their public shares. Such a purchase may include a contractual acknowledgement that such stockholder, although still the record holder of SRAC’s shares, is no longer the beneficial owner thereof and therefore agrees not to exercise its redemption rights. In the event that the Sponsor, the Momentus stockholders or our or their respective directors, officers, advisors or respective affiliates purchase shares in privately negotiated transactions from public stockholders who have already elected to exercise their redemption rights, such selling stockholder would be required to revoke

65

Table of Contents

their prior elections to redeem their shares. The purpose of such share purchases and other transactions would be to (1) increase the likelihood of approving the proposals to be voted upon at the Special Meeting and (2) limit the number of public shares electing to redeem, including to satisfy any redemption threshold.

Entering into any such arrangements may have a depressive effect on our common stock (e.g., by giving an investor or holder the ability to effectively purchase shares at a price lower than market, such investor or holder may therefore become more likely to sell the shares he or she owns, either at or prior to the Business Combination). If such transactions are effected, the consequence could be to cause the Business Combination to be consummated in circumstances where such consummation could not otherwise occur. Purchases of shares by the persons described above would allow them to exert more influence over the approval of the Proposals to be presented at the Special Meeting and would likely increase the chances that such Proposals would be approved. In addition, if such purchases are made, the public “float” of our public shares and the number of beneficial holders of our securities may be reduced, possibly making it difficult to maintain or obtain the quotation, listing or trading of our securities on a national securities exchange.

We are not registering the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities laws at this time, and such registration may not be in place when an investor desires to exercise warrants, thus precluding such investor from being able to exercise its warrants except on a “cashless basis” and potentially causing such warrants to expire worthless.

We are not registering the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants under the Securities Act or any state securities laws at this time. However, under the terms of the warrant agreement, we have agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of our initial business combination, we will use our reasonable best efforts to file with the SEC, and within 60 business days following our initial business combination to have declared effective, a registration statement covering the issuance of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed. We cannot assure you that we will be able to do so if, for example, any facts or events arise which represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement or prospectus, the financial statements contained or incorporated by reference therein are not current, complete or correct or the SEC issues a stop order. If the shares issuable upon exercise of the warrants are not registered under the Securities Act, we will be required to permit holders to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis. However, no warrant will be exercisable for cash or on a cashless basis, and we will not be obligated to issue any shares to holders seeking to exercise their warrants, unless the issuance of the shares upon such exercise is registered or qualified under the securities laws of the state of the exercising holder or an exemption from registration is available. Notwithstanding the above, if Combined Company Class A common stock is at the time of any exercise of a warrant not listed on a national securities exchange such that it satisfies the definition of a “covered security” under Section 18(b)(1) of the Securities Act, we may, at our option, require holders of public warrants who exercise their warrants to do so on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act and, in the event we so elect, we will not be required to file or maintain in effect a registration statement, but we will use our best efforts to register or qualify the shares under applicable blue sky laws to the extent an exemption is not available. In no event will we be required to net cash settle any warrant, or issue securities or other compensation in exchange for the warrants in the event that we are unable to register or qualify the shares underlying the warrants under applicable state securities laws and no exemption is available. If the issuance of the shares upon exercise of the warrants is not so registered or qualified or exempt from registration or qualification, the holder of such warrant shall not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and may expire worthless. In such event, holders who acquired their warrants as part of a purchase of units will have paid the full unit purchase price solely for the shares of Class A common stock included in the units. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying shares of Class A common stock for sale under all applicable state securities laws.

If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by stockholders may be less than $10.00 per share (which was the offering price per unit in our IPO).

Our placing of funds in the Trust Account may not protect those funds from third-party claims against us. Although we will seek to have all vendors, service providers (other than our independent registered public accounting firm), prospective target businesses or other entities with which we do business execute agreements with us waiving any right,

66

title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account, including, but not limited to, fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain advantage with respect to a claim against our assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, our management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver only if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to us than any alternative.

Examples of possible instances where we may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where we are unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with us and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. Upon redemption of our public shares, if we are unable to complete our initial business combination within the prescribed time frame, or upon the exercise of a redemption right in connection with our initial business combination, we will be required to provide for payment of claims of creditors that were not waived that may be brought against us within the 10 years following redemption. Accordingly, the per share redemption amount received by public stockholders could be less than the $10.00 per share initially held in the Trust Account, due to claims of such creditors.

The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to us if and to the extent any claims by a third party (other than our independent registered public accounting firm) for services rendered or products sold to us, or a prospective target business with which we have discussed entering into a Merger Agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below (1) $10.00 per public share or (2) such lesser amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, in each case net of the interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, except as to any claims by a third party who executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account and except as to any claims under our indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. Moreover, in the event that an executed waiver is deemed to be unenforceable against a third party, the Sponsor will not be responsible to the extent of any liability for such third party claims. We have not independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and we have not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations. As a result, if any such claims were successfully made against the Trust Account, the funds available for our initial business combination and redemptions could be reduced to less than $10.00 per public share. In such event, we may not be able to complete our initial business combination, and you would receive such lesser amount per share in connection with any redemption of your public shares. No member of our management team will indemnify us for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

If, after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, a bankruptcy court may seek to recover such proceeds, and the members of our Board may be viewed as having breached their fiduciary duties to our creditors, thereby exposing the members of our Board and us to claims of punitive damages.

If, after we distribute the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, any distributions received by stockholders could be viewed under applicable debtor/creditor and/or bankruptcy laws as either a “preferential transfer” or a “fraudulent conveyance.” As a result, a bankruptcy court could seek to recover some or all amounts received by our stockholders. In addition, our Board may be viewed as having breached its fiduciary duty to our creditors and/or having acted in bad faith by paying public stockholders from the Trust Account prior to addressing the claims of creditors, thereby exposing itself and us to claims of punitive damages.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the claims of creditors in such proceeding may have priority over the claims of our stockholders and the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our stockholders in connection with our liquidation may be reduced.

If, before distributing the proceeds in the Trust Account to our public stockholders, we file a bankruptcy petition or an involuntary bankruptcy petition is filed against us that is not dismissed, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be subject to applicable bankruptcy law, and may be included in our bankruptcy estate and subject to the claims of third parties with priority over the claims of our stockholders. To the extent any bankruptcy claims deplete the Trust Account, the per-share amount that would otherwise be received by our public stockholders in connection with our liquidation would be reduced.

Our stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against us to the extent of distributions received by them upon redemption of their shares.

Under the DGCL, stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution. The pro rata portion of our Trust Account distributed to our public stockholders upon the redemption of our public shares in the event we do not complete our initial business combination within the required time period may be considered a liquidating distribution under Delaware law. If a corporation complies with certain procedures set forth in Section 280 of the DGCL intended to ensure that it makes reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution. However, it is our intention to redeem our public shares as soon as reasonably possible following the required time period in the event we do not complete our initial business combination and, therefore, we do not intend to comply with the foregoing procedures.

Because we do not intend to comply with Section 280 of the DGCL, Section 281(b) of the DGCL requires us to adopt a plan, based on facts known to us at such time that will provide for our payment of all existing and pending claims or claims that may be potentially brought against us within the 10 years following our dissolution. However, because we are a blank check company, rather than an operating company, and our operations are limited to searching for prospective target businesses to acquire, the only likely claims to arise would be from our vendors (such as lawyers, investment bankers, consultants, etc.) or prospective target businesses. If our plan of distribution complies with Section 281(b) of the DGCL, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would likely be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution. We cannot assure you that we will properly assess all claims that may be potentially brought against us. As such, our stockholders could potentially be liable for any claims to the extent of distributions received by them (but no more) and any liability of our stockholders may extend beyond the third anniversary of such date. Furthermore, if the pro rata portion of our Trust Account distributed to our public stockholders upon the redemption of our public shares in the event we do not complete our initial business combination within the required time period is not considered a liquidating distribution under Delaware law and such redemption distribution is deemed to be unlawful, then pursuant to Section 174 of the DGCL, the statute of limitations for claims of creditors could then be six years after the unlawful redemption distribution, instead of three years, as in the case of a liquidating distribution.

Compliance obligations under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act may make it more difficult for us to effectuate the Business Combination, require substantial financial and management resources and increase the time and costs of completing a business combination.

The fact that we are a blank check company will make compliance with the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act particularly burdensome on us as compared to other public companies because Momentus is not currently subject to Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The standards required for a public company under Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act are significantly more stringent than those required of Momentus as a privately held company. Management may not be able to effectively and timely implement controls and procedures that adequately respond

68

Table of Contents

to the increased regulatory compliance and reporting requirements that will be applicable to us after the Business Combination. If we are not able to implement the requirements of Section 404, including any additional requirements once we are no longer an emerging growth company, in a timely manner or with adequate compliance, we may not be able to assess whether our internal controls over financial reporting are effective, which may subject us to adverse regulatory consequences and could harm investor confidence and the market price of our securities. Additionally, once we are no longer an emerging growth company, we will be required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirement on our internal control over financial reporting.

The obligations associated with being a public company will involve significant expenses and will require significant resources and management attention, which may divert from our business operations.

As a public company, we are subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Exchange Act requires the filing of annual, quarterly and current reports with respect to a public company’s business and financial condition. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act requires, among other things, that a public company establish and maintain effective internal control over financial reporting. As a result, the Combined Company will incur significant legal, accounting and other expenses that Momentus did not previously incur. Momentus’ entire management team and many of its other employees will need to devote substantial time to compliance, and may not effectively or efficiently manage its transition into a public company.

These rules and regulations will result in the Combined Company incurring substantial legal and financial compliance costs and will make some activities more time-consuming and costly. For example, these rules and regulations will likely make it more difficult and more expensive for the Combined Company to obtain director and officer liability insurance, and it may be required to accept reduced policy limits and coverage or incur substantially higher costs to obtain the same or similar coverage. As a result, it may be difficult for the Combined Company to attract and retain qualified people to serve on its Board of Directors, its board committees or as executive officers.

SRAC currently is an emerging growth company and a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and to the extent we have taken advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, this could make the Combined Company’s securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.

SRAC currently is an “emerging growth company” within the meaning of the Securities Act, as modified by the JOBS Act, and we may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. As a result, our stockholders may not have access to certain information they may deem important. We cannot predict whether investors will find our securities less attractive because we will rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result of our reliance on these exemptions, the trading prices of our securities may be lower than they otherwise would be, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the trading prices of our securities may be more volatile.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. We have elected not to opt out of such extended transition period, which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, we, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of our financial statements with another public company, which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Table of Contents

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of: (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following the fifth anniversary of the closing of the IPO, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.07 billion or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our common equity that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior June 30th; and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.00 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period. The Combined Company will qualify as an emerging growth company as well as a smaller reporting company within the meaning of the Securities Act, and if we take advantage of certain exemptions from disclosure requirements available to emerging growth companies or smaller reporting companies, this could make our securities less attractive to investors and may make it more difficult to compare our performance with other public companies.”

Our public stockholders will experience dilution as a consequence of, among other transactions, the issuance of Class A common stock as consideration in the Business Combination and the PIPE Investment. Having a minority share position may reduce the influence that our current stockholders have on the management of the Combined Company.

The issuance of a significant number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock in the Business Combination and in the PIPE Investment will dilute the equity interest of our existing stockholders and may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our public shares and/or public warrants.

It is anticipated that, upon the Closing and assuming the no redemption scenario: (1) SRAC’s public stockholders will own approximately 12.2% of the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock; (2) the PIPE Investors (other than SRAC Partners, an affiliate of the Sponsor) will own approximately 11.7% of the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock; (3) the Sponsor and its affiliate SRAC Partners will own approximately 4.1% of the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock; and (4) the Momentus stockholders will own approximately 72.0% of the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock. These levels of ownership assume (a) that no shares are elected to be redeemed in connection with the Business Combination and (b) that we issue 102,019,873 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock to the Momentus equityholders (after giving effect to the repurchase of 3,000,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock as described in the section titled “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Consent Solicitation/Prospectus — Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination — Repurchase Agreement”) as part of the Merger Consideration in connection with the consummation of the Business Combination. The PIPE Investors have agreed to purchase in the aggregate 17,500,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock for $175,000,000 of gross proceeds in the PIPE Investment. In this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, we assume that a portion of the gross proceeds from the PIPE Investment and funds held in the Trust Account will be used to fund the repayment of Momentus’ existing indebtedness for borrowed money as of the Closing (estimated to be approximately $1,594,364, inclusive of any prepayment fees or penalties) and the payment of certain transaction expenses, with the remainder being used to capitalize the balance sheet of the Combined Company. The ownership percentage with respect to the Combined Company (a) does not take into account (1) warrants to purchase Class A common stock that will remain outstanding immediately following the Business Combination, (2) the Rollover Options or Assumed Warrants or (3) the issuance of any shares upon the Closing under the Equity Incentive Plan, Employee Stock Purchase Plan or CEO Option Grant, but does include the founder shares (including the Sponsor Earnout Shares), which will automatically convert into shares of Combined Company Class A common stock on a one-for-one basis upon the Closing (such shares of Class A common stock will be subject to transfer restrictions). If the actual facts are different from these assumptions, the above levels of ownership will be different. Please see the sections titled “Summary of the Proxy Statement/Consent Solicitation Statement/Prospectus — Ownership after the Closing; Impact of the Business Combination on the Combined Company’s Public Float,” “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information” and “Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and Management” for further information.

The issuance of additional shares of Combined Company Class A common stock will significantly dilute the equity interests of existing holders of our securities and may adversely affect prevailing market prices for our public shares or public warrants.

Table of Contents

Warrants will become exercisable for Combined Company Class A common stock, which would increase the number of shares eligible for future resale in the public market and result in dilution to our stockholders.

If the Business Combination is completed, outstanding warrants to purchase an aggregate of approximately 8,897,500 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock will become exercisable in accordance with the terms of the warrant agreement. These warrants will become exercisable 30 days after the Closing. The exercise price of these warrants will be $11.50 per share. To the extent such warrants are exercised, additional shares of Combined Company Class A common stock will be issued, which will result in dilution to the then existing holders of Combined Company Class A common stock and increase the number of shares eligible for resale in the public market. Sales of substantial numbers of such shares in the public market or the fact that such warrants may be exercised could adversely affect the market price of Combined Company Class A common stock. However, there is no guarantee that the public warrants will ever be in the money prior to their expiration, and as such, the warrants may expire worthless. Even if the Business Combination is consummated, the public warrants may never be in the money, and they may expire worthless and the terms of the warrants may be amended in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment.”

Even if the Business Combination is consummated, the public warrants may never be in the money, and they may expire worthless and the terms of the warrants may be amended in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment.

The warrants were issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, acting as warrant agent, and SRAC. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants. Accordingly, we may amend the terms of the public warrants in a manner adverse to a holder if holders of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants approve of such amendment. Although our ability to amend the terms of the public warrants with the consent of at least 50% of the then outstanding public warrants is unlimited, examples of such amendments could be amendments to, among other things, increase the exercise price of the warrants, convert the warrants into cash or stock (at a ratio different than initially provided), shorten the exercise period or decrease the number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock purchasable upon exercise of a warrant.

We may redeem your unexpired warrants prior to their exercise at a time that is disadvantageous to you, thereby making your warrants worthless.

We have the ability to redeem outstanding warrants at any time after they become exercisable and prior to their expiration, at a price of $0.01 per warrant, provided that the last reported sales price of Combined Company Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30 trading-day period ending on the third trading day prior to the date we send the notice of redemption to the warrant holders. If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, we may exercise our redemption right even if we are unable to register or qualify the underlying securities for sale under all applicable state securities laws. Redemption of the outstanding warrants could force you to: (1) exercise your warrants and pay the exercise price therefor at a time when it may be disadvantageous for you to do so; (2) sell your warrants at the then-current market price when you might otherwise wish to hold your warrants; or (3) accept the nominal redemption price which, at the time the outstanding warrants are called for redemption, is likely to be substantially less than the market value of your warrants.

In addition, we may redeem your warrants after they become exercisable for a number of shares of Class A common stock determined based on the redemption date and the fair market value of Combined Company Class A common stock. Any such redemption may have similar consequences to a cash redemption described above. In addition, such redemption may occur at a time when the warrants are “out-of-the-money,” in which case you would lose any potential embedded value from a subsequent increase in the value of the Class A common stock had your warrants remained outstanding.

None of the warrants underlying the private placement units will be redeemable by us so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted transferees.

Following the Business Combination, the Combined Company will be a holding company and will depend on the ability of its subsidiaries to pay dividends.

The Combined Company will be a holding company without any direct operations and will have no significant assets other than its ownership interest in Momentus. Accordingly, its ability to pay dividends will depend upon the financial condition, liquidity and results of operations of, and the Combined Company’s receipt of dividends, loans or other funds from, Momentus and its subsidiaries. The Combined Company’s subsidiaries are separate and distinct legal entities and have no obligation to make funds available to the Combined Company. In addition, there are various statutory, regulatory and contractual limitations and business considerations on the extent, if any, to which the Combined Company’s subsidiaries may pay dividends, make loans or otherwise provide funds to the Combined Company.

Risks Related to the Redemption

Public stockholders who wish to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account must comply with specific requirements for redemption that may make it more difficult for them to exercise their redemption rights prior to the deadline. If stockholders fail to comply with the redemption requirements specified in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, they will not be entitled to redeem their public shares for a pro rata portion of the funds held in the Trust Account.

A public stockholder will be entitled to receive cash for any public shares to be redeemed only if such public stockholder: (1)(a) holds public shares, or (b) if the public stockholder holds public shares through units, the public stockholder elects to separate its units into the underlying public shares and warrants prior to exercising its redemption rights with respect to the public shares; (2) prior to 5:00 p.m. Eastern Time on           , 2021 (two business days before the scheduled date of the Special Meeting) submits a written request to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, that we redeem all or a portion of your public shares for cash, affirmatively certifying in your request if you “ARE” or “ARE NOT” acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13d-3 of the Exchange Act) with any other stockholder with respect to shares of our common stock; and (3) delivers its public shares to our transfer agent physically or electronically through DTC. In order to obtain a physical share certificate, a stockholder’s broker or clearing broker, DTC and our transfer agent will need to act to facilitate this request. It is our understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from our transfer agent. However, because we do not have any control over this process or over DTC, it may take significantly longer than two weeks to obtain a physical stock certificate. If it takes longer than anticipated to obtain a physical certificate, public stockholders who wish to redeem their public shares may be unable to obtain physical certificates by the deadline for exercising their redemption rights and thus will be unable to redeem their shares.

If a public stockholder fails to receive notice of our offer to redeem public shares in connection with the Business Combination, or fails to comply with the procedures for tendering its shares, such shares may not be redeemed.

If, despite our compliance with the proxy rules, a public stockholder fails to receive our proxy materials, such public stockholder may not become aware of the opportunity to redeem his, her or its public shares. In addition, the proxy materials that we are furnishing to holders of public shares in connection with the Business Combination describe the various procedures that must be complied with in order to validly redeem the public shares. In the event that a public stockholder fails to comply with these procedures, its public shares may not be redeemed. Please see the section titled “SRAC Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights” for additional information on how to exercise your redemption rights.

If you or a “group” of stockholders of which you are a part are deemed to hold an aggregate of more than 15% of the public shares, you (or, if a member of such a group, all of the members of such group in the aggregate) will lose the ability to redeem all such shares in excess of 15% of the public shares.

A public stockholder, together with any of his, her or its affiliates or any other person with whom it is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Exchange Act), will be restricted from redeeming in the aggregate his, her or its shares or, if part of such a group, the group’s shares, in excess of 15% of the public shares. In order to determine whether a stockholder is acting in concert or as a group with another stockholder, we will require each public stockholder seeking to exercise redemption rights to certify to us whether such stockholder is acting in concert or as a group with any other stockholder. Such certifications, together with other public information relating to stock

72

Table of Contents

ownership available to us at that time, such as Section 13D, Section 13G and Section 16 filings under the Exchange Act, will be the sole basis on which we make the above-referenced determination. Your inability to redeem any such excess shares will reduce your influence over our ability to consummate the Business Combination and you could suffer a material loss on your investment in us if you sell such excess shares in open market transactions. Additionally, you will not receive redemption distributions with respect to such excess shares if we consummate the Business Combination. As a result, you will continue to hold that number of shares aggregating to more than 15% of the public shares and, in order to dispose of such excess shares, would be required to sell your stock in open market transactions, potentially at a loss. We cannot assure you that the value of such excess shares will appreciate over time following the Business Combination or that the market price of the public shares will exceed the per-share redemption price. Notwithstanding the foregoing, stockholders may challenge our determination as to whether a stockholder is acting in concert or as a group with another stockholder in a court of competent jurisdiction.

However, our stockholders’ ability to vote all of their shares (including such excess shares) for or against the Business Combination is not restricted by this limitation on redemption.

There is no guarantee that a stockholder’s decision whether to redeem its shares for a pro rata portion of the Trust Account will put the stockholder in a better future economic position.

We can give no assurance as to the price at which a stockholder may be able to sell its public shares in the future following the Closing or any alternative business combination. Certain events following the consummation of any initial business combination, including the Business Combination, may cause an increase in our share price, and may result in a lower value realized now than a stockholder of us might realize in the future had the stockholder not redeemed its shares. Similarly, if a stockholder does not redeem its shares, the stockholder will bear the risk of ownership of the public shares after the consummation of any initial business combination, and there can be no assurance that a stockholder can sell its shares in the future for a greater amount than the redemption price set forth in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. A stockholder should consult the stockholder’s own tax and/or financial advisor for assistance on how this may affect his, her or its individual situation.

Risks if the Business Combination is Not Consummated

If we are not able to complete the Business Combination with Momentus by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of stockholders, such later date) nor able to complete another initial business combination by such date, we would cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up and we would redeem our public shares and liquidate, in which case our public stockholders may receive only $10.00 per share, or less than such amount in certain circumstances, and our warrants will expire worthless.

If we are not able to complete the Business Combination with Momentus by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of stockholders, such later date) nor able to complete another initial business combination by such date, we will: (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than 10 business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and the SRAC Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such case, our public stockholders may receive only $10.00 per share, or less than $10.00 per share, on the redemption of their shares, and our warrants will expire worthless.

If the Business Combination is not consummated, you will not have any rights or interests in funds from the Trust Account, except under certain limited circumstances. To liquidate your investment, therefore, you may be forced to sell your public shares or public warrants, potentially at a loss.

Our public stockholders will be entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account only upon the earlier to occur of: (1) the completion of our initial business combination, and then only in connection with those shares of Class A common stock that such stockholder properly elected to redeem, subject to the limitations described herein; (2) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend our amended and restated certificate of incorporation to modify the substance or timing of our obligation to redeem 100% of our

73

Table of Contents

public shares if we do not complete our initial business combination within the required time period; and (3) the redemption of all of our public shares if we are unable to complete our initial business combination by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of stockholders, such later date), subject to applicable law and as further described herein. In addition, if we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period for any reason, compliance with Delaware law may require that we submit a plan of dissolution to our then-existing stockholders for approval prior to the distribution of the proceeds held in our Trust Account. In that case, public stockholders may be forced to wait beyond the end of the required time period before they receive funds from our Trust Account. In no other circumstances will a public stockholder have any right or interest of any kind in the Trust Account. Holders of warrants will not have any right to the proceeds held in the Trust Account with respect to the warrants. Accordingly, to liquidate your investment, you may be forced to sell your public shares or public warrants, potentially at a loss.

If the funds not being held in the Trust Account are insufficient to allow us to operate until at least May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date), we may be unable to complete our initial business combination.

The funds available to us outside of the Trust Account may not be sufficient to allow us to operate until May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date), assuming that our initial business combination is not completed during that time. We expect to incur significant costs in pursuit of our acquisition plans. However, our affiliates are not obligated to make loans to us or invest in us in the future, and we may not be able to raise additional financing from unaffiliated parties necessary to fund our expenses. Any such event in the future may negatively impact the analysis regarding our ability to continue as a going concern at such time.

We could use a portion of the funds available to us to pay fees to consultants to assist us with our search for a target business. We could also use a portion of the funds as a down payment or to fund a “no-shop” provision (a provision in letters of intent or merger agreements designed to keep target businesses from “shopping” around for transactions with other companies or investors on terms more favorable to such target businesses) with respect to a particular proposed business combination, although we do not have any current intention to do so. If we entered into a letter of intent or merger agreement where we paid for the right to receive exclusivity from a target business and were subsequently required to forfeit such funds (whether as a result of our breach or otherwise), we might not have sufficient funds to continue searching for, or conduct due diligence with respect to, a target business. If we are unable to complete our initial business combination, our public stockholders may receive only approximately $10.00 per share, or less in certain circumstances, on the liquidation of our Trust Account and our warrants will expire worthless. If third parties bring claims against us, the proceeds held in the Trust Account could be reduced and the per share redemption amount received by stockholders may be less than $10.00 per share (which was the offering price per unit in our IPO)” and other risk factors herein.

The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements of SRAC and Momentus present the combination of the financial information of SRAC and Momentus adjusted to give effect to the Business Combination. The following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared in accordance with Article 11 of Regulation S-X.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 combines the historical balance sheet of SRAC and the historical balance sheet of Momentus on a pro forma basis as if the Business Combination, summarized below, had been consummated on September 30, 2020. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the nine months ended September 30, 2020, combine the historical statements of operations of SRAC and Momentus for such periods on a pro forma basis as if the Business Combination, summarized below, had been consummated on January 1, 2019, the beginning of the earliest period presented:

•        the merger of First Merger Sub with and into Momentus, with Momentus surviving the merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of SRAC (the “First Merger”);

•        immediately following the consummation of the First Merger, the merger of Momentus with Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub surviving the merger as a wholly owned subsidiary of SRAC (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”);

•        on the Closing Date, SRAC shall repay the loan payable of Momentus, including any breakage costs, prepayment or redemption penalties or premiums;

•        immediately prior to the consummation of the Mergers, the issuance and sale of 17,500,000 shares of Combined Company Class A Common Stock for a purchase price of $10.00 per share and an aggregate purchase price of $175 million in the PIPE Financing pursuant to the Subscription Agreements;

•        1,437,500 shares of SRAC Class B common stock owned by the Sponsor are subject to forfeiture immediately prior to the Closing if the amount in the Trust Account (for the avoidance of doubt, prior to giving effect to the any redemptions by SRAC’s stockholders and the payment of any transaction costs by SRAC) less the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that are required to satisfy any redemptions by SRAC’s stockholder is less than $100,000,000. In the No Redemption Scenario, no pro forma adjustments have been made for the potential forfeiture as the remaining Trust Account less the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that are required to satisfy redemptions by SRAC’s stockholder would exceed $100,000,000. In the Maximum Redemption Scenario, the remaining Trust Account less the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that are required to satisfy redemptions by SRAC’s stockholder would not exceed $100,000,000 and 1,437,500 shares of the Sponsor’s SRAC Class B common stock would be forfeited;

•        pursuant to the Mergers, (i) the conversion of all the outstanding shares of capital stock of Momentus (including any shares subject to reacquisition rights) and its outstanding SAFE notes into Combined Company Class A Common Stock, (ii) the conversion of all Momentus stock options (other than any non-plan options) and warrants that are outstanding and unexercised as of immediately prior to the Effective Time into stock options and warrants, respectively, to acquire an adjusted number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock at an adjusted exercise price per share and (iii) the cancellation of each Momentus non-plan option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time for no consideration, with the sum of (x) such Combined Company Class A common stock to be issued and (y) the Combined Company Class A common stock underlying such Rollover Options and Assumed Warrants, to total an estimated 115,809,116 shares (it being noted that such number is an estimate and subject to certain customary adjustments set forth in the Merger Agreement, and as a result of which, such number of shares will not be definitely known until the Closing); and

•        immediately following the Mergers, the repurchase of certain shares of Combined Company Class A common stock held by PML subject to the Repurchase Agreement.

Table of Contents

Notwithstanding the legal form of the Business Combination pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination is expected to be accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with the United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Under this method of accounting, SRAC is treated as the acquired company and Momentus is treated as the acquirer for financial statement reporting purposes. Momentus has been determined to be the accounting acquirer based on evaluation of the following facts and circumstances that are expected to be in place when the closing of the Business Combination becomes effective:

•        Momentus’ existing stockholders will have the greater voting interest in the Combined Company with an estimated 73% voting interest under a No Redemption Scenario as of immediately following the Closing;

•        by virtue of such estimated voting interest upon the Closing, Momentus’ existing stockholders will have the ability to control decisions regarding the election and removal of directors and officers of Combined Company following the Closing; and

•        Momentus’ senior management will be the senior management of the Combined Company.

Other factors were considered but they would not change the preponderance of factors indicating that Momentus was the accounting acquirer.

The historical financial statements have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements to give pro forma effect to events that are: (a) directly attributable to the Business Combination; (b) factually supportable; and (c) with respect to the statement of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the Combined Company’s results following the completion of the Business Combination.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been developed from and should be read in conjunction with:

•        the accompanying notes to the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements;

•        the historical audited financial statements of SRAC as of December 31, 2019 and for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019 and the related notes, which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus;

•        the historical unaudited financial statements of SRAC as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the related notes, which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus;

•        the historical audited financial statements of Momentus as of and for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the related notes, which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus;

•        the historical unaudited financial statements of Momentus as of and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the related notes, which are included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus; and

•        other information relating to SRAC and Momentus contained in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, including the Merger Agreement and the description of certain terms thereof set forth in the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement” and the risk factors set forth under the section titled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 39 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Pursuant to SRAC’s existing charter, public stockholders will be offered the opportunity to redeem, with such redemption to occur upon the Closing, shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock then held by them for cash equal to their pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit (as of two business days prior to the Closing) in the Trust Account.

Table of Contents

In connection with the closing of the Business Combination, 1,437,500 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock to be owned by the Sponsor upon conversion of the founder shares will be subject to forfeiture for no consideration if certain post-Closing share price targets are not satisfied within a five year period post Business Combination. No pro forma adjustments have been made for the potential forfeiture as the forfeiture is contingent upon future events not tied to the Closing.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements present two redemption scenarios as follows:

•        No Redemption:    This scenario, which we refer to as the “No Redemption Scenario,” assumes that no shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock are redeemed from the public stockholders; and

•        Maximum Redemption:    This scenario, which we refer to as the “Maximum Redemption Scenario,” assumes that 9,779,103 shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock are redeemed for an aggregate payment of approximately $98.1 million (based on the estimated per share redemption price of approximately $10.03 per share) from the Trust Account, which is the estimated maximum number of redemptions that could occur without a failure to satisfy the minimum cash condition set forth in the Merger Agreement.

Assumptions and estimates underlying the unaudited pro forma adjustments set forth in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements are described in the accompanying notes. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements have been presented for illustrative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the operating results and financial position that would have been achieved had the Business Combination occurred on the dates indicated. Further, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements do not purport to project the future operating results or financial position of the Combined Company following the completion of the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma adjustments represent management’s estimates based on information available as of the date of these unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial statements and are subject to change as additional information becomes available and analyses are performed.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Statements

1.     Basis of Presentation

The Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, SRAC is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination is treated as the equivalent of Momentus issuing stock for the net assets of SRAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of SRAC are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 gives pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on September 30, 2020. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the nine months ended September 30, 2020, give pro forma effect to the Business Combination as if it had been consummated on January 1, 2019.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

•        SRAC’s unaudited balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 and the related notes, which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus; and

•        Momentus’ unaudited balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 and the related notes, which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

•        SRAC’s audited statement of operations for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019 and the related notes, which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus; and

•        Momentus’ audited statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 and the related notes, which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 has been prepared using, and should be read in conjunction with, the following:

•        SRAC’s unaudited statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the related notes, which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus; and

•        Momentus’ unaudited statement of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and the related notes, which is included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings that may be associated with the Business Combination. The pro forma adjustments reflecting the consummation of the Business Combination are based on certain currently available information and certain assumptions and methodologies that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The unaudited condensed pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments and it is possible the difference may be material. Management believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Business Combination based on information available to management at the time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

Table of Contents

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the Business Combination taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the post-combination company. They should be read in conjunction with the historical financial statements and notes thereto of SRAC and Momentus.

2.     Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared to illustrate the effect of the Business Combination and has been prepared for informational purposes only. The historical financial statements have been adjusted in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to give pro forma effect to events that are (a) directly attributable to the Business Combination, (b) factually supportable and (c) with respect to the statements of operations, expected to have a continuing impact on the results of the post-combination company. SRAC and Momentus have not had any historical relationship prior to the Business Combination. Accordingly, no pro forma adjustments were required to eliminate activities between the companies.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Balance Sheet

The adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 are as follows:

(1)    Represents pro forma adjustments to the condensed combined balance sheet:

a.      Reflects the pro forma adjustment to change the classification of the warrant from liability to equity resulting in the elimination of the warrant liability and the expensing of the associated discount.

b.      Reflects the conversion of all Momentus capital stock and SAFE notes into Combined Company Class A common stock.

c.      Reflects the reclassification of cash and investments held in the Trust Account that becomes available following the Business Combination.

d.      Represents transaction costs of approximately $34.6 million incurred in connection with the Business Combination, including approximately $6.9 million of deferred transactions costs related to the SRAC IPO payable at Closing, $1.0 million of deferred offering cots that were paid prior to Closing, and $26.7 million payable in connection with the Closing. Includes legal, financial advisory and other professional fees related to the Business Combination. In connection with the reverse recapitalization treatment, these transaction costs are recorded as reductions to additional paid-in capital.

e.      Reflects the net proceeds of $167.7 million ($175.0 million gross less $7.3 million in fees) from the issuance and sale of 17,500,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock at $10.00 per share in the PIPE Financing pursuant to the Subscription Agreements.

f.       Reflects a pro forma adjustment for the repurchase of 3,000,000 Combined Company Class A common stock per the terms of the Repurchase Agreement at a net price of $9.67 per share for a total repayment of $29.0 million. This pro forma adjustment is only applicable for the No Redemption Scenario as under the terms of the Repurchase Agreement no repurchase would be required in the Maximum Redemption Scenario.

g.      Reflects a pro forma adjustment for the repayment of the loan payable and the expensing of the associated discount and prepayment penalty per the terms of the Business Combination Agreement.

h.      Reflects the elimination of historical retained earnings of SRAC.

i.       Reflects the Minimum Redemption scenario, in which no shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock are redeemed and the Class A common stock subject to possible redemption totalling $162.3 million would be transferred to permanent equity.

83

Table of Contents

j.       Reflects the Maximum Redemption scenario, in which 9,779,103 shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock subject to possible redemption are redeemed for an aggregate payment of approximately $98.1 million (based on the estimated per share redemption price of approximately $10.03 per share). The Maximum Redemption also takes into consideration the forfeiture of 1,437,500 shares of SRAC Class B common stock owned by the Sponsor in a Maximum Redemption Scenario where the amount in the Trust Account less the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that are required to satisfy any redemptions by SRAC’s stockholder would be less than $100,000,000.

k.      Represents the conversion of all outstanding SRAC’s Class A and Class B common stock into Combined Company Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement.

l.        Reflects an adjustment to increase the par value of Momentus common stock that was exchanged for shares of the Combined Company’s Class A common stock to $0.0001 from the historical par value of Momentus common stock of $0.000001.

Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statements of Operations

(2)    The pro forma adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statements of operations for the year ended December 31, 2019 and for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are as follows:

a.      Represents pro forma adjustment to eliminate the interest expense and associated debt discount amortization related to the loan payable that would be repaid per the terms of the Business Combination Agreement if the Business Combination was consummated on January 1, 2019.

b.      Represents pro forma adjustment to eliminate the change in fair value of SAFE notes that would be converted into Combined Company Class A common stock and the change in fair value of the warrant as the classification would change from liability to equity that would not be incurred if the Business Combination was consummated on January 1, 2019.

c.      Represents pro forma adjustment to eliminate investment income related to the investment held in the Trust Account of SRAC that would not be earned if the Business Combination was consummated on January 1, 2019.

d.      Represents the elimination of income tax expense related to investment income held in the Trust Account because this income tax expense would not be incurred if the Business Combination was consummated on January 1, 2019.

e.      Represents the weighted average shares outstanding due to the issuance of Combined Company Class A common stock (and redemptions in the Maximum Redemption Scenario) in connection with the Business Combination.

3.     Loss per Share

Represents the net loss per share calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Business Combination, assuming the shares were outstanding since January 1, 2019. As the Business Combination is being reflected as if it had occurred at the beginning of the periods presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issuable relating to the Business Combination have been outstanding for the entire periods presented.

MOMENTUS SOLICITATION OF WRITTEN CONSENTS

This section contains information for Momentus stockholders regarding the solicitation of written consents to adopt the Merger Agreement by executing and delivering the written consent furnished with this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Purpose of the Consent Solicitation

Momentus stockholders are being asked to (i) adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination, including the Mergers (the “Momentus Proposal”), (ii) waive their appraisal rights pursuant to the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) and California Corporations Code (the “CCC”), (iii) terminate certain agreements by and among Momentus and Momentus stockholders, and (iv) approve, on a non-binding advisory basis, each of the amendments described in Proposal Nos. 3A through 3G of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus with respect to the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of SRAC (the “Unbundled Governance Proposals”), by executing and delivering the written consent furnished with this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Momentus’ board of directors has unanimously determined that the Merger Agreement, the Business Combination, including the Mergers, and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the amendments set forth in the Unbundled Governance Proposals, are advisable, fair to and in the best interests of Momentus and Momentus stockholders and has approved the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination, including the Mergers. Momentus’ board of directors recommends that Momentus stockholders consent to the Momentus Proposal and thereby adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination, including the Mergers, and the Unbundled Governance Proposals.

Record Date

Only Momentus stockholders of record holding shares of Momentus stock at the close of business on the record date of         , 2021 (the “Momentus Record Date”) will be notified of and be entitled to sign and deliver written consents with respect to the Momentus Proposal and the Unbundled Governance Proposals.

Momentus Stockholders Entitled to Consent

On the Momentus Record Date, the outstanding securities of Momentus eligible to consent with respect to the Momentus Proposal and the Unbundled Governance Proposals consisted of                shares of Class A common stock,                shares of Class B common stock,                shares of FF Preferred Stock,                shares of Series Seed Preferred Stock,                shares of Series Seed-1 Preferred Stock,                shares of Series Seed-2 Preferred Stock,                shares of Series A Preferred Stock and                shares of Series A-1 Preferred Stock.

Consents; Required Consents

Written consents from the holders of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Momentus stock, on an “as-converted basis,” voting together as a single class, are required to adopt the Momentus Proposal and the Unbundled Governance Proposals.

Concurrently with entry by the parties into the Merger Agreement, each of Mikhail Kokorich, Prime Movers Lab Fund I LP and Momentus PML SPV 1 LP entered into a Support Agreement with SRAC, substantially in the form attached as Annex G to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Under the Support Agreements, Mikhail Kokorich, Prime Movers Lab Fund I LP and Momentus PML SPV 1 LP, as applicable, agreed, within three business days of the Registration Statement becoming effective, to execute and deliver a written consent with respect to the outstanding equity securities of Momentus held by them, adopting the Merger Agreement and approving the Business Combination, including the Mergers. As of the Momentus Record Date, the equity securities that are owned by Mikhail Kokorich, Prime Movers Lab Fund I LP and Momentus PML SPV 1 LP and subject to the Support Agreements represent approximately               % of the outstanding voting power of Momentus capital stock (on an as-converted basis). In addition, the Support Agreements prohibit Mikhail Kokorich, Prime Movers Lab Fund I LP and Momentus PML SPV 1 LP from engaging in activities that have the effect of soliciting a competing acquisition proposal.

86

Table of Contents

Interests of Certain Persons in the Business Combination

In considering whether to adopt the Merger Agreement by executing and delivering the written consent, Momentus stockholders should be aware that aside from their interests as stockholders, Momentus’ officers and members of Momentus’ board of directors have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of other Momentus stockholders generally. Momentus stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Business Combination. For additional information please see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Interests of the Momentus Directors and Executive Officers” beginning on page 127 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Submission of Consents

If you hold shares of Momentus capital stock as of the Momentus Record Date and you wish to give your written consent, you must fill out the written consent which will be sent to you, date and sign it, and promptly return it to Momentus. Once you have completed, dated and signed the written consent, you may deliver it to Momentus, by emailing a .pdf copy of your written consent to               , at               .com or by mailing your written consent to                at               .

Momentus has set 12:00 noon, New York time, on         , 2021, as the target date for the receipt of written consents, which is the date on which Momentus expects to receive the written consent of Mikhail Kokorich, PML and an affiliated entity of PML in accordance with the Support Agreements. Momentus reserves the right to extend the final date for receipt of written consents beyond such date. Any such extension may be made without notice to Momentus stockholders. Once a sufficient number of consents to adopt the Merger Agreement has been received, the consent solicitation will conclude. As noted in the section titled “Additional InformationAppraisal Rights” beginning on page 260, the delivery of a signed and dated consent adopting the Merger Agreement, or delivery of a signed and dated consent without indicating a decision on the Momentus Proposal, will result in a loss of appraisal rights under Section 262 of the DGCL.

Executing Consents; Revocation of Consents

You may execute a written consent to adopt the Merger Agreement, which is equivalent to a vote “FOR” the Momentus Proposal. If you do not execute and return your written consent, or otherwise withhold your written consent, it will have the same effect as voting against the Momentus Proposal.

If you are a record holder of shares of Momentus capital stock as of the close of business on the Momentus Record Date, you may change or revoke your written consent (subject to any contractual obligations you may otherwise have) at any time prior to 12:00 noon, New York time, on         , 2021 (or, if earlier, before the consents of a sufficient number of shares to adopt the Merger Agreement have been delivered to the Secretary of Momentus). If you wish to change or revoke your consent before that time, you may do so by sending a notice of revocation by emailing a .pdf copy to         , at         .com or by mailing your written consent to          at         .

Solicitation of Consents; Expenses

The expense of preparing, printing and mailing these consent solicitation materials is being borne by Momentus. Officers and directors of Momentus may solicit consents by telephone and personally, in addition to solicitation by mail. These persons will receive their regular salaries but no special compensation for soliciting consents.

SRAC SPECIAL MEETING OF STOCKHOLDERS

General

SRAC is furnishing this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus to its stockholders as part of the solicitation of proxies by our board of directors for use at the Special Meeting of SRAC stockholders to be held on         , 2021, and at any adjournment or postponement thereof. This proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus is first being furnished to our stockholders on or about         , 2021. This proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus provides you with information you need to know to be able to vote or instruct your vote to be cast at the Special Meeting.

Date, Time and Place

The Special Meeting will be held at         , Eastern Time, on         , 2021, or such other date and time to which such meeting may be adjourned or postponed, to consider and vote upon the Proposals. In light of the ongoing developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic and to protect the health of SRAC stockholders and the community, the Special Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders conducted via live audio webcast. You will be able to attend the Special Meeting by visiting          and entering your control number as further explained in the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Voting Power; Record Date

SRAC stockholders will be entitled to vote or direct votes to be cast at the Special Meeting if you owned shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock at the close of business on         , 2021, which is the record date for the Special Meeting. You are entitled to one vote for each share of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock that you owned as of the close of business on the record date. If your shares are held in “street name” or are in a margin or similar account, you should contact your broker, bank or other nominee to ensure that votes related to the shares you beneficially own are properly counted. On the record date, there were          shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock outstanding in the aggregate, of which          are public shares,          are private placement shares and          are founder shares held by the Sponsor and SRAC Partners.

Vote of the Sponsor, Directors and Officers of SRAC

In connection with our IPO, SRAC entered into agreements with each of its Sponsor, directors and officers pursuant to which each agreed to vote any shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock owned by them in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. Concurrently with the execution of the Merger Agreement, Sponsor, SRAC Partners and SRAC entered into the Sponsor Agreement, pursuant to which, among other things, Sponsor and SRAC Partners agreed to (a) waive certain anti-dilution rights set forth in SRAC’s governing documents that may result from the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, (b) surrender to SRAC, immediately prior to the Closing and for no consideration, 1,437,500 shares of SRAC Class B common stock comprising the Sponsor Contingent Closing Shares, if, and only if, (i) the amount in the Trust Account (for the avoidance of doubt, prior to giving effect to the SRAC Share Redemptions (if any) and the payment of any SRAC transaction costs incurred prior to the Closing and that remain unpaid as of immediately prior to the Closing), minus (ii) the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that will be required to satisfy the SRAC Share Redemptions (if any), is less than $100,000,000, (c) subject to potential forfeiture the 1,437,000 shares of SRAC Class A common stock comprising the Sponsor Earnout Shares in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement, such that such shares will be forfeited if certain post-closing share price targets are not satisfied prior to the fifth anniversary of the Closing, (d) support the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including agreeing to vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement at the Special Meeting, and (e) not to transfer any shares of SRAC Class A common stock for a period of six months following the Closing (or, if earlier, the date that the SRAC Class A common stock trades at or above $12.00 per share for any 20 trading days in a 30 trading day period after Closing).

Our Sponsor, directors and officers have waived any redemption rights, including with respect to shares of SRAC Class A common stock purchased in our IPO or in the aftermarket, in connection with the Business Combination. The founder shares held by the Sponsor have no redemption rights upon SRAC’s liquidation and will be worthless if no

Table of Contents

business combination is effected by us by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date). However, our Sponsor, directors and officers are entitled to redemption rights upon our liquidation with respect to any shares of SRAC Class A common stock they may own.

Quorum and Required Vote for Proposals for the Special Meeting

A quorum of SRAC stockholders is necessary to hold a valid meeting. A quorum will be present at the Special Meeting if a majority of the SRAC Class A common stock and SRAC Class B common stock outstanding and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting is represented in person or by proxy. Abstentions will count as present for the purposes of establishing a quorum.

The Business Combination Proposal, the Governance Proposals (on an advisory basis), the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, the CEO Option Grant Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal require the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of SRAC’s shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote thereon and actually cast at the Special Meeting, voting as a single class. Approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal requires the affirmative vote (in person or by proxy) of the holders of a majority of SRAC’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock entitled to vote thereon at the Special Meeting, voting as single class. Directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast by holders of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock and Class B common stock, voting as a single class. This means that the seven director nominees who receive the most affirmative votes will be elected. Stockholders may not cumulate their votes with respect to the election of directors. Accordingly, if a valid quorum is otherwise established, a stockholder’s failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting will have no effect on the outcome of any vote on the Business Combination Proposal, the Governance Proposals the Director Election Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, or the CEO Option Grant Proposal, but will have the same effect as a vote AGAINST the Charter Amendment Proposal.

The Closing is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal at the Special Meeting. Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal are cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Director Election Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and the CEO Option Grant Proposal are conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal. The Governance Proposals are not conditioned on the approval of any other Proposals.

Recommendation to SRAC Stockholders

After careful consideration, the SRAC board of directors unanimously recommends that SRAC stockholders vote “FOR” each Proposal being submitted to a vote of the SRAC stockholders at the Special Meeting.

For a more complete description of SRAC’s reasons for the approval of the Business Combination and the recommendation of the SRAC board of directors, see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — SRAC’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination.”

Voting Your Shares

Each share of SRAC Class A common stock and each share of SRAC Class B common stock that you own in your name entitles you to one vote on each of the proposals for the Special Meeting. Your one or more proxy cards show the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock and SRAC Class B common stock that you own. There are several ways to vote your shares of SRAC Class A common stock and SRAC Class B common stock:

•        You can vote your shares by completing, signing, dating and returning the enclosed proxy card in the postage-paid envelope provided. If you hold your shares in “street name” through a bank, broker or other nominee, you will need to follow the instructions provided to you by your bank, broker or other nominee to ensure that your shares are represented and voted at the Special Meeting. If you vote by proxy card, your “proxy,” whose name is listed on the proxy card, will vote your shares as you instruct on the proxy card. If you sign and return the proxy card but do not give instructions on how to vote your shares, your shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock will be voted as recommended by the

89

Table of Contents

board of directors. The board of directors recommends voting “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal, “FOR” the Charter Amendment Proposal, “FOR” the Governance Proposals, “FOR” the Director Election Proposal, “FOR” the Nasdaq Proposal, “FOR” the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, “FOR” the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, and “FOR” the CEO Option Grant Proposal.

•        You can attend the Special Meeting and vote in person even if you have previously voted by submitting a proxy pursuant to any of the methods noted above. In light of the ongoing developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic and to protect the health of SRAC stockholders and the community, the Special Meeting will be a completely virtual meeting of stockholders conducted via live audio webcast. You will be able to attend the Special Meeting by visiting          and entering your control number as further explained in the accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. However, if your shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock are held in the name of your broker, bank or other nominee, you must get a proxy from the broker, bank or other nominee. That is the only way we can be sure that the broker, bank or nominee has not already voted your shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock.

Revoking Your Proxy

If you give a proxy, you may revoke it at any time before the Special Meeting or at such meeting by doing any one of the following:

•        you may send another proxy card with a later date;

•        you may notify SRAC’s secretary, in writing, before the Special Meeting that you have revoked your proxy; or

•        you may attend the Special Meeting, revoke your proxy, and vote in person, as indicated above.

No Additional Matters May Be Presented at the Special Meeting

The Special Meeting has been called to consider only the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal, the Governance Proposals, the Director Election Proposal, the Nasdaq Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, and the CEO Option Grant Proposal. Under the SRAC bylaws, other than procedural matters incident to the conduct of the Special Meeting, no other matters may be considered at the Special Meeting if they are not included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, which serves as the notice of the Special Meeting.

Who Can Answer Your Questions About Voting Your Shares

If you have any questions about how to vote or direct a vote in respect of your shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock, you may call Morrow Sodali LLC, our proxy solicitor, at (800) 662-5200 (toll free) (banks and brokerage firms, please call collect: (203) 658-9400 or by email to SRAC.info@investor.morrowsodali.com.

Redemption Rights

Under SRAC’s existing charter, any holder of SRAC Class A common stock may elect that such shares be redeemed in exchange for a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest but net of taxes payable, calculated as of two (2) business days prior to the Closing. If demand is properly made and the Business Combination is consummated, these shares, immediately prior to the Business Combination, will cease to be outstanding and will represent only the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account, which holds the proceeds of our IPO (calculated as of two (2) business days prior to the Closing, including interest but net of taxes payable). For illustrative purposes, based on the fair value of marketable securities held in the Trust Account as of as of September 30, 2020 of approximately $173 million, the estimated per share redemption price would have been approximately $10.03.

90

Table of Contents

In order to exercise your redemption rights, you must:

•        if you hold your shares of SRAC Class A common stock through units, elect to separate your units into the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising your redemption rights with respect to the public shares;

•        check the box on the enclosed proxy card marked “Stockholder Certification” if you are not acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined in Section 13(d)(3) of the Exchange Act) with any other stockholder with respect to shares of SRAC Class A common stock;

•        prior to 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, on           , 2021 (two (2) business days before the Special Meeting), tender your shares physically or electronically and submit a request in writing that we redeem your public shares for cash to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, our transfer agent, to the attention of Mark Zimkind at 1 State Street Plaza, 30th Floor, New York, New York 10004, or by email at mzimkind@continentalstock.com; and

•        deliver your shares of SRAC Class A common stock either physically or electronically through DTC to the transfer agent at least two (2) business days before the Special Meeting. Stockholders seeking to exercise their redemption rights and opting to deliver physical certificates should allot sufficient time to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent and time to effect delivery. It is SRAC’s understanding that stockholders should generally allot at least two weeks to obtain physical certificates from the transfer agent. However, SRAC does not have any control over this process and it may take longer than two weeks. Stockholders who hold their shares in street name will have to coordinate with their bank, broker or other nominee to have the shares certificated or delivered electronically. If you do not submit a written request and deliver your shares of SRAC Class A common stock as described above, your shares will not be redeemed.

Any demand for redemption, once made, may be withdrawn at any time until the deadline for exercising redemption requests (and submitting shares to the transfer agent) and thereafter, with our consent, until the vote is taken with respect to the Business Combination. If you delivered your shares for redemption to the transfer agent and decide within the required timeframe not to exercise your redemption rights, you may request that the transfer agent return the shares (physically or electronically). You may make such request by contacting the transfer agent at the e-mail address or address listed above.

Holders of outstanding units of SRAC must separate the underlying public shares and public warrants prior to exercising redemption rights with respect to the public shares. If you hold units registered in your own name, you must deliver the certificate for such units to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company with written instructions to separate such units into public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit the mailing of the public share certificates back to you so that you may then exercise your redemption rights upon the separation of the public shares from the units.

If a broker, dealer, commercial bank, trust company or other nominee holds your units, you must instruct such nominee to separate your units. Your nominee must send written instructions by facsimile to Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. Such written instructions must include the number of units to be split and the nominee holding such units. Your nominee must also initiate electronically, using DTC’s DWAC (deposit withdrawal at custodian) system, a withdrawal of the relevant units and a deposit of an equal number of public shares and public warrants. This must be completed far enough in advance to permit your nominee to exercise your redemption rights upon the separation of the public shares from the units. While this is typically done electronically on the same business day, you should allow at least one full business day to accomplish the separation. If you fail to cause your public shares to be separated in a timely manner, you will likely not be able to exercise your redemption rights.

Prior to exercising redemption rights, stockholders should verify the market price of SRAC Class A common stock as they may receive higher proceeds from the sale of their SRAC Class A common stock in the public market than from exercising their redemption rights if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price. SRAC cannot assure you that you will be able to sell your shares of SRAC Class A common stock in the open market, even if the market price per share is higher than the redemption price stated above, as there may not be sufficient liquidity in the SRAC Class A common stock when you wish to sell your shares.

91

Table of Contents

If you exercise your redemption rights, your shares of SRAC Class A common stock will cease to be outstanding immediately prior to the Business Combination and will only represent the right to receive a pro rata share of the aggregate amount on deposit in the Trust Account. You will no longer own those shares and will have no right to participate in, or have any interest in, the future growth of SRAC following the Business Combination, if any. You will be entitled to receive cash for these shares only if you properly and timely demand redemption.

If the Business Combination is not approved and we do not consummate a “business combination” (as defined in SRAC’s existing charter) by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date), we will be required to dissolve and liquidate our Trust Account by returning the then-remaining funds in such account to the public stockholders and our warrants will expire worthless.

Appraisal Rights

Appraisal rights are not available to holders of shares of SRAC Class A common stock or SRAC Class B common stock in connection with the Business Combination.

Proxy Solicitation Costs

SRAC is soliciting proxies on behalf of its board of directors. This solicitation is being made by mail but also may be made by telephone or in person. SRAC and its directors, officers and employees may also solicit proxies in person. SRAC will file with the SEC all scripts and other electronic communications as proxy soliciting materials. SRAC will bear the cost of the solicitation.

SRAC has hired Morrow to assist in the proxy solicitation process. SRAC will pay that firm a fee of $22,500, plus costs and expenses. SRAC will ask banks, brokers and other institutions, nominees and fiduciaries to forward the proxy materials to their principals and to obtain their authority to execute proxies and voting instructions. SRAC will reimburse them for their reasonable expenses.

THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND THE MERGER AGREEMENT

The following is a summary of the material terms of the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination. A copy of the Merger Agreement is attached as Annex A to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus and is incorporated by reference. The Merger Agreement has been attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus to provide you with information regarding its terms. It is not intended to provide any other factual information about SRAC, Momentus, First Merger Sub or Second Merger Sub. The following description does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Agreement. You should refer to the full text of the Merger Agreement for details of the Mergers and the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement. In the event of any discrepancy between the following summary and the terms of the Merger Agreement, the Merger Agreement will control. Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the definition given to them in the Merger Agreement.

SRAC is asking its stockholders to approve and adopt the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby. SRAC stockholders should read carefully this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Merger Agreement. Please see the subsection titled “The Merger Agreement” below for additional information and a summary of certain terms of the Merger Agreement. You are urged to read carefully the Merger Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.

Because SRAC is holding a Special Meeting of stockholders to vote on the Business Combination, SRAC may consummate the Business Combination only if it is approved by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the shares of SRAC Class A common stock and SRAC Class B common stock that are voted at the Special Meeting, voting as a single class.

The Merger Agreement

Structure

Under the Merger Agreement: (a) First Merger Sub will merge with and into Momentus (the “First Merger”), with Momentus being the surviving corporation of the First Merger (such company, in its capacity as the surviving corporation of the First Merger, the “Surviving Corporation”) and (b) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Second Merger Sub (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Second Merger Sub being the surviving company of the Second Merger. The transactions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the Mergers, will constitute a “Business Combination” as contemplated by SRAC’s existing charter.

Completion and Effectiveness of the Mergers

The Mergers will be completed as promptly as practicable (but no later than the third business day) after all of the conditions to the obligations of the parties to consummate the Mergers are satisfied or waived, including the requisite approval of the stockholders of SRAC and Momentus, or at such other time as the parties agree, unless earlier terminated in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement. For a more complete description of the conditions that must be satisfied prior to the Closing, see the section titled “— Conditions to the Completion of the Mergers” on page 96. For more information on termination rights, see the section titled “— Termination” on page 108. The Mergers are anticipated to occur after the Special Meeting, which is further described on page 88. As of the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, the parties expect that the Business Combination, including the Mergers, will be consummated during the first quarter of 2021. However, there can be no assurance as to when or if the Mergers will occur.

Merger Consideration

The aggregate merger consideration payable to the stockholders of Momentus will be paid in shares of newly issued Combined Company Class A common stock (or securities exercisable for Combined Company Class A common stock) having a value equal to $1,131,000,000, minus (ii) Momentus’ indebtedness for borrowed money as of the Closing, plus (iii) Momentus’ cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash as determined in accordance with GAAP, any cash being held on behalf of Momentus’ customers and any security deposit for leases) as of the Closing, plus (iv) the aggregate cash exercise price of all Momentus warrants and options that are outstanding and in the money

93

Table of Contents

as of immediately prior to the Closing (the “Merger Consideration”). The Combined Company Class A common stock issued (or reserved for issuance upon exercise of options or warrants) to holders of Momentus equity will be based on a deemed value of $10.00 per share.

No fractional shares of Combined Company Class A common stock will be issued. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional shares, SRAC has agreed to pay to each former holder of Momentus equity interests eligible to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share an amount in cash, without interest, rounded down to the nearest cent, equal to the product of: (a) the amount of the fractional share interest in SRAC Class A common stock to which such holder would otherwise have been entitled, multiplied by (b) $10.00.

Treatment of Momentus Equity Interests

Capital Stock

In connection with the Mergers, each share of Momentus capital stock (subject to limited exceptions) will be cancelled and automatically deemed for all purposes to represent the right to receive a portion of the Merger Consideration in accordance with Momentus’ organizational documents.

Warrants

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Momentus warrant that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be converted into a warrant to acquire an adjusted number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock at an adjusted exercise price per share, as described below (each such resulting warrant, an “Assumed Warrant”). Each Assumed Warrant will be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding warrant in Momentus immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the Mergers or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the parties to the Merger Agreement may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Assumed Warrants. The number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to each Assumed Warrant shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Stock that are subject to the warrant by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock; and (c) the per share exercise price for the SRAC Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrant shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Stock subject to the Assumed Warrant, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent.

Vested and Unvested Options

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Momentus option (whether vested or unvested) (other than any non-plan option, which will be handled as set forth below under “Non-Plan Option,” below) that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be assumed by SRAC and converted into an option to acquire an adjusted number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock at an adjusted exercise price per share, determined in the manner described below (each such resulting option, a “Rollover Option”). Each Rollover Option will be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the parties to the Merger Agreement may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover Options.

The number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to each Rollover Option shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Stock subject to the corresponding Company Option by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock. The per share exercise price for the SRAC Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of such Rollover Option shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Stock subject to the Company Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversions described under the Merger Agreement shall occur in a manner consistent with the requirements of

94

Table of Contents

Section 409A of the Code and, in the case of any Company Option to which Section 422 of the Code applies, the exercise price and the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock purchasable pursuant to such option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code.

Non-Plan Options

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each Momentus non-plan option that was granted prior to Closing and is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled for no consideration.

Restricted Stock

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each award of Momentus restricted stock that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be assumed by SRAC and converted into an award of restricted stock with respect to an adjusted number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock (the “Rollover Restricted Stock”) determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Restricted Stock subject to such award by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock. Each share of Rollover Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding share of Momentus Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the parties to the Merger Agreement may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover Restricted Stock.

SAFEs

Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, each SAFE note that is outstanding will be automatically converted into the right to receive the aggregate Per Share Company Stock Consideration payable in accordance with the terms of such applicable SAFE note in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Each SAFE note so converted shall immediately thereafter terminate in accordance with its terms.

Ownership after the Closing

It is anticipated that, upon completion of the Transactions, depending on the number of SRAC Share Redemptions and subject to the assumptions set forth below, the concentration of ownership of the issued and outstanding capital stock of the Combined Company will be as follows:

Representations and Warranties

The Merger Agreement contains representations and warranties that SRAC, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub, on the one hand, and Momentus, on the other hand, have made to one another as of specific dates. These representations and warranties have been made for the benefit of the other parties to the Merger Agreement and may be intended not as statements of fact but rather as a way of allocating the risk to one of the parties if such statements made in the representations and warranties prove to be incorrect.

Accordingly, you should not rely on the representations and warranties as current characterizations of factual information about SRAC, First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub, Momentus or any other matter, because they were made as of specific dates, may be intended merely as a risk allocation mechanism between SRAC, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub on the one hand, and Momentus on the other hand, and are modified by the disclosure letters.

The Merger Agreement provides that none of the representations and warranties of SRAC, Momentus, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub contained in the Merger Agreement or any certificate or instrument delivered pursuant to the Merger Agreement will survive the Closing, and all rights, claims and causes of action (whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, or whether at law or in equity) with respect thereto will terminate at the Closing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the covenants and agreements that by their terms survive the Closing will survive the Closing and nothing in the Merger Agreement will relieve any party from liability for any intentional breach of the Merger Agreement or actual fraud.

Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement

At the Closing, SRAC, Sponsor, certain existing holders of SRAC capital stock (including SRAC Partners), and certain Momentus stockholders, who will receive SRAC Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, in each case in respect of the shares of SRAC Class A common stock issued to Sponsor and such Company stockholders, and pursuant to which such holders and their permitted transferees will be entitled to certain customary registration rights, including, among other things, demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cut-back provisions.

In connection with the execution of the Merger Agreement, PML, Momentus and SRAC will enter into the Repurchase Agreement pursuant to which, amongst other things, SRAC has agreed to repurchase a certain number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock from PML, at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, immediately following the Closing (the “Repurchase”).

If Net Proceeds exceed $265,000,000 but are less than $280,000,000, the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to the Repurchase will be equal to the amount by which Net Proceeds exceed $250 million, divided by $10.00. In the event Net Proceeds are in excess of $280,000,000, the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to the Repurchase will be equal to $30,000,000, divided by $10.00. At the closing of the Repurchase, SRAC will be entitled to deduct from such cash payment an amount equal to 3.3% of such cash payment (representing PML’s obligation to pay Momentus a portion of its transaction expenses). Dakin Sloss, one of Momentus’ current directors, is the manager of an entity that controls PML.

The material terms of the CEO Option Grant are set forth in “Proposal No. 7—Approval of the CEO Option Grant Proposal” in this proxy statement/consent solicitation/prospectus.

Background to the Business Combination

SRAC is a blank check company incorporated on May 28, 2019 as a Delaware corporation and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. The potential Business Combination was the result of an extensive search for potential transactions utilizing the global network of SRAC’s management team, including its board of directors. The terms of the Merger Agreement were the result of extensive negotiations among the representatives of SRAC and Momentus. Conversations on behalf of Momentus were principally conducted by Momentus management. Momentus is partially owned by Mikhail Kokorich and certain affiliates of Prime Movers Lab (“PML”).

On November 13, 2019, SRAC completed its initial public offering of 17,250,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit generating gross proceeds of $172.5 million before underwriting discounts and expenses. Each unit consisted of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one public warrant. Each whole warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of Class A common stock for $11.50 per share, subject to certain adjustments. Simultaneous with the closing of the initial public offering, SRAC completed the private sale of an aggregate of 495,000 private placement units at a price of $10.00 per private placement unit to the Sponsor and 50,000 private placement units at a price of $10.00 to Cantor Fitzgerald & Co., (“Cantor”) (as the underwriter of the initial public offering). The private placement units (and the underlying securities) are identical to the public units sold as part of the public units in the IPO, except as otherwise disclosed in the Registration Statement on Form S-1 filed by SRAC in connection with the IPO.

After the completion of its IPO, SRAC considered a number of potential target businesses with the objective of consummating its initial business combination. Representatives of SRAC contacted and were contacted by a number of individuals and entities who offered to present ideas for business combination opportunities, including financial advisors and companies in the cannabis industry, space and other industries. SRAC considered businesses that it believed, among other things, were highly scalable, had the potential to achieve significant growth and returns, and could benefit from SRAC’s additional managerial guidance and strategic initiatives to reposition such company.

In the process that led to identifying Momentus as an attractive investment opportunity, SRAC’s management team evaluated over 50 potential business combination targets, entered into non-disclosure agreements with approximately 26 potential business combination targets (other than Momentus), submitted non-binding indications of interest with respect to three potential business combination targets and submitted a non-binding letter of intent with respect to one potential business combination target (other than Momentus). SRAC engaged in more extensive negotiations with two potential acquisition targets (other than Momentus), Target A and Target B.

With respect to Target A, representatives of SRAC commenced discussions with representatives of Target A in November 2019, and sent an indication of interest to Target A with respect to a potential business combination on January 1, 2020 following review of certain preliminary due diligence materials including a confidential information memorandum and discussions with the management team of Target A. SRAC signed a non-binding indication of interest with Target A on January 6, 2020. In March 2020, SRAC decided not to pursue a potential business combination with Target A due to the company’s financial performance and other factors identified during SRAC’s due diligence review.

With respect to Target B, representatives of SRAC commenced discussions with representatives of Target B in April 2020, including receiving a confidential information memorandum on June 3, 2020 and viewing a management presentation on June 15, 2020. Ultimately, on July 27, 2020, SRAC determined not to proceed with negotiations with Target B or execute definitive documentation with respect to a potential business combination transaction due to various factors, including Target B’s relatively small enterprise value and the presence of other potential business combination opportunities that more closely met SRAC’s criteria and guidelines, including Momentus.

On June 26, 2020, Brian Kabot (Chief Executive Officer of SRAC) was introduced to Mikhail Kokorich (Chief Executive Officer of Momentus) through Pickwick Capital Partners, LLC and JDA Funds Management, Inc. and had a telephone conversation in which they had a preliminary discussion regarding a potential business combination between SRAC and Momentus. On June 29, 2020, Mr. Kabot and Mr. Kokorich had a meeting at the SRAC offices, where they continued to discuss a potential business combination between SRAC and Momentus.

On July 1, 2020, SRAC executed a confidentiality agreement with Momentus (the “Confidentiality Agreement”).

During the period between the execution of the Confidentiality Agreement and the execution of the Merger Agreement on October 7, 2020, SRAC and its advisors conducted extensive due diligence with respect to Momentus’ financial model, customer base and customer contracts, total addressable market, industry in which Momentus operates, companies comparable to Momentus and aero-defense companies with similar characteristics, technology solutions, intellectual property and relationship with SpaceX. Momentus provided representatives of SRAC and its advisors with, among other materials in connection with SRAC’s diligence review, confidential presentations reflecting an overview of Momentus’ business, as well as financial forecasts and written responses to detailed business and financial due diligence questions. Representatives of SRAC also had multiple discussions with representatives of Evercore Inc. (“Evercore”) and Momentus’ other advisors to review the mechanics of a potential business combination transaction and discuss such issues as the level of conditionality with respect to a transaction, pro forma capitalization and the operating and other standards required of a publicly listed company.

Representatives of each of SRAC and Momentus, as well as each of their advisors, met telephonically several times throughout July, August and September 2020 to discuss disclosure requests and responses in connection with SRAC’s diligence review. During July and August 2020, the SRAC board of directors had several telephone calls regarding business combinations generally.

On July 7, 2020, Mr. Kabot had an introductory telephone call with Mr. Kokorich, representatives of Evercore, and certain members of the management team of Momentus, including Alex Wicks (Chief Development Officer), Aaron Mitchell (VP of Product) and Dawn Harms (Chief Revenue Officer) during which Mr. Kabot was introduced to the management team. During the telephone call, Mr. Kokorich, other members of the management team and Evercore provided an overview of Momentus, including its business, industry, operations, technology and financial projections.

Mr. Kabot and Mr. Kokorich had a telephone call on July 8, 2020 where Momentus’ valuation and short and long-term capital needs were discussed, as well as the process for negotiating a potential business combination between SRAC and Momentus. Mr. Kabot and Alexander Fishkin (Chief Business Affairs and Legal Officer of Momentus) had a telephone call on July 9, 2020 during which Momentus’ financial statements, capitalization structure and short and long-term working capital needs were discussed. In the middle of July, SRAC received an initial financial model from Momentus.

On July 22, 2020, Dakin Sloss, a Momentus Board member and affiliate of PML, the largest stockholder of Momentus, and representatives of Evercore had a teleconference to discuss the potential for PML to receive cash proceeds as part of the business combination through a secondary transaction or repurchase. Additionally, on that date, Mr. Kokorich and representatives of Evercore discussed the inclusion of the potential secondary or repurchase as part of the business combination, including the view that allowing PML to receive proceeds through a structured secondary transaction or repurchase would allow a more orderly sale of Momentus’ shares by Momentus’ largest stockholder so long as such secondary or repurchase transaction would not harm the potential business combination or the Combined Company.

On July 29, 2020, Mr. Kabot, Mr. Quiroga, Mr. Kokorich and representatives of Evercore had a teleconference to discuss Momentus’ business model and market opportunity and a potential business combination between SRAC and Momentus.

On July 29, 2020, Momentus provided SRAC with revised financial projections and a presentation regarding the proposed business combination, which reflected an enterprise valuation of $1.8 billion for Momentus.

On July 30, 2020, Mr. Kabot and Mr. Kokorich had an in-person meeting to discuss the process for negotiating a business combination between SRAC and Momentus.

SRAC’s Board of Directors’ Reasons for the Approval of the Business Combination

On October 7, 2020, the SRAC board of directors (i) approved the Merger Agreement and related transaction agreements and the transactions contemplated thereby, (ii) determined that the Business Combination is in the best interests of SRAC and its stockholders, and (iii) recommended that SRAC’s stockholders approve and adopt the Business Combination.

In evaluating the Business Combination, the SRAC board of directors consulted with SRAC’s management and considered a number of factors. The SRAC board of directors and management also considered the general criteria and guidelines that SRAC believed would be important in evaluating prospective target businesses as described in the prospectus for the IPO. The SRAC board of directors also considered that they could enter into a business combination with a target business that does not meet those criteria and guidelines. In the prospectus for its initial public offering, SRAC stated that it intended to focus primarily on acquiring a company or companies that possess some or all of the following characteristics, although SRAC indicated that it may enter into a business combination with a target business that does not meet these criteria or guidelines:

•        operates adjacent or ancillary to the cannabis industry, but does not “touch the plant” and complies with all U.S. federal laws;

•        is highly scalable;

•        has strong intellectual property including brands, technology, software, methods, etc.;

•        has an institutional mindset/infrastructure;

•        has a strong professional management team with deep networks within the cannabis sector and the ability to adapt to a quickly changing business environment;

•        has potential to achieve significant growth in revenue and earnings;

•        has potential to generate attractive returns on invested capital, with incremental investment opportunities that will allow the company to increase earnings;

•        has strong intellectual property, a defensible business model, a strong competitive position established customer relationships, and sustainable margins;

•        has potential to grow via add-on acquisitions or is viewed as an appropriate platform for a future roll-up strategy;

•        can benefit from expected consolidation within the cannabis industry;

•        can benefit from additional managerial guidance and strategic initiatives to reposition the company, accelerate growth or refocus the business on strategies that will result in value creation;

•        will be well received by financial markets as a public company; and

•        has the potential to generate risk-adjusted returns that are attractive for our stockholders.

SRAC initially intended to focus its search for target businesses within the cannabis industry as described in the prospectus for its initial public offering, however, its efforts were not limited to that industry and spanned companies in various industries that had the potential to meet the other criteria and guidelines set forth in the prospectus. After initially evaluating several companies operating in the cannabis industry, SRAC expanded its search to include companies operating in other high growth industries. In considering the Business Combination, the SRAC board of directors determined that the Business Combination was an attractive business opportunity that met the vast majority of the criteria and guidelines above, although not weighted or in any order of significance.

In particular, the SRAC board of directors considered the following factors:

Momentus and the Business Combination.    The SRAC board of directors considered the following factors related to Momentus and the Business Combination:

•        Large and Growing Market Opportunity.    The industrialization of space is driving strong growth across the space industry. The broader space economy is projected to grow from approximately $415 billion in 2018 (according to Space Foundation Space Report) to $1.4 trillion over the next decade (according to Bank of America Global Research). More specifically, the space transportation market is projected to increase from approximately $10 billion in 2018 to $30 billion to $40 billion in 2026 (according to Stratistics). With the significant market opportunity in the new space economy, Momentus is well-positioned to address the need for in-space infrastructure services, including in-space transport, with an increasing trend towards larger, less expensive rockets being launched more frequently while satellites are becoming smaller and less expensive. Momentus has strong momentum from the rapidly expanding small satellite market, which is seeking low-cost and regular launch access to orbit.

•        Strong Competitive Position.    Momentus is a first mover in building infrastructure services in space and is creating the first hub and spoke model in space by offering last-mile delivery in partnership with key launch operators, including SpaceX, as discussed further below. Momentus offers its customers significantly more affordable access to space by combining the capabilities of low-cost launch vehicles and Momentus’ transport and service vehicles, powered by water plasma propulsion technology which was built from the ground-up to be low cost, efficient, easy to refuel and scalable. In addition, Momentus plans to expand its offerings by providing a Satellite as a Service model for hosted payloads and an in-orbit service model for satellite deorbiting, life extension, refueling, and repositioning. Momentus’ technology is specifically designed to work with many launch partners and satellite customers, thereby providing Momentus with a broad market opportunity.

•        Significant Traction with Customers.    Momentus’ customers include satellite operators, satellite manufacturers, launch providers, defense primes such as Lockheed Martin and government agencies such as NASA. As of November 1, 2020, Momentus had customer contracts which represent approximately $90 million in potential revenue.

•        Strong Relationship with SpaceX.    Momentus is party to a rideshare partnership agreement with SpaceX, with whom Momentus is partnered for all of SpaceX’s dedicated ridesharing missions through 2022. Momentus’ current contract with SpaceX consists of reserved ports on their launches through 2022. The SRAC board of directors believes the partnership with SpaceX, a well-known new leader in the space industry, reflects SpaceX’s confidence in Momentus, its technology and its go to market strategy.

•        Potential Public Investor Enthusiasm for Space Companies.    Since the advent of space exploration, there has been limited means for public investors to invest in the economic and strategic value of companies operating in the space industry. Against this backdrop, the Business Combination with Momentus will create the world’s first publicly traded space infrastructure company. Momentus will provide investors the opportunity to invest in a company at the forefront of the new space economy that supplies key technology and services to launch providers and satellite operators.

•        Experienced and Proven Management Team.    Momentus’ management team, led by co-founder and Chief Executive Officer Mikhail Kokorich, has extensive experience in aerospace, propulsion and robotics. In particular, Dr. Fred Kennedy, President, previously served as an independent consultant for multiple aerospace firms, the inaugural Director of the U.S. Department of Defense Space Development Agency, the Director of the Tactical Technology Office at the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and a Senior Advisor for National Security Space and Aviation in the White House Office of Science and Technology, among other positions; Rob Schwarz, Chief Technology Officer, previously served as the chief technology officer, and held other senior management roles at SSL, a provider of spacecraft systems, where he started his career as a spacecraft systems engineer; and Dawn Harms, Chief Revenue Officer, previously served as a Principal at Space Architectures LLC, a defense and space consulting company, Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing at Boeing Satellite Systems International, and Vice President of Sales and Marketing at International Launch Services, the sales organization for the Proton rocket. Numerous other members of Momentus’ management team and key

120

Table of Contents

employees also have deep experience in the space industry. We expect that the Momentus management team will continue with the combined company following the Business Combination. For additional information regarding Momentus’ executive officers, see the section titled “Management after the Business Combination — Executive Officers.”

•        Valuable Intellectual Property.    Since its founding in 2017, Momentus has developed a portfolio of technologies, including its cornerstone water plasma propulsion technology, which it successfully tested in space in 2019. As of October 28, 2020, Momentus had 15 pending U.S. patent and Patent Cooperation Treaty applications.

•        Momentus Investor Base.    The SRAC board of directors considered the significant equity investment in Momentus by its senior management team and other employees, as well as its well-known venture capital backers such as Y Combinator and Prime Movers Lab, among others. The SRAC board of directors believes the composition of Momentus’ investor base demonstrates confidence in Momentus’ business strategy.

•        Attractive Entry Valuation.    The Combined Company will have an anticipated initial enterprise value of $1.2 billion, implying a 1.0x multiple of 2025 projected EBITDA as Momentus’ operations are expected to achieve scale. The SRAC Board also reviewed and considered valuations and trading of publicly traded companies, including Virgin Galactic’s valuation of 29.6x enterprise value/2025 projected EBITDA, and the valuation multiples of mature launch providers (median of 10.8x 2021 projected EBITDA) and large defense and space companies (median of 10.9x 2021 projected EBITDA). See “— Comparable Company Analysis.” Based on these metrics the SRAC Board believes that this is a favorable multiple compared to other similar companies in the space industry.

•        Access to Working Capital.    The SRAC board of directors also considered the approximately $310 million of cash expected to be available on Momentus’ balance sheet after the completion of the Business Combination, comprised of $175 million from the PIPE investment (including a $10 million investment arranged by the Sponsor) and approximately $173 million of net cash from SRAC’s trust account as of September 30, 2020 (assuming no redemptions) and approximately $27 million from Momentus’ balance sheet prior to the closing, and after giving effect to the payment of all transaction expenses and the Repurchase, to fund go forward operations and support Momentus’ continued growth after the completion of the Business Combination.

•        Financial Condition:    The SRAC board of directors also considered factors such as Momentus’ historical financial results, outlook, financial plan, debt structure, strength of its balance sheet (including its approximately $43.6 million of cash on hand as of August 31, 2020) and go-forward business and financial model.

Best Available Opportunity.    The SRAC board of directors focused on identifying a high quality business operating in a dynamic, fast growing industry. The SRAC board of directors believes, after a thorough review of other business combination opportunities reasonably available to SRAC, that the proposed Business Combination represents the best potential business combination for SRAC and the most attractive opportunity for SRAC management to accelerate its business plan based upon the process utilized to evaluate and assess other potential acquisition targets, and the SRAC board of director’s belief that such processes had not presented a better alternative.

Results of Due Diligence.    The SRAC board of directors considered the scope of the due diligence investigation conducted by SRAC’s management and outside advisors and evaluated the results thereof and information available to it related to Momentus, including:

•        extensive meetings and calls with the Momentus management team regarding its operations and projections and the proposed transaction;

•        an in-person visit to Momentus’ facility;

•        review of materials related to Momentus made available by Momentus, including material contracts, strategic plans, key metrics and performance indicators, benefit plans, insurance policies, litigation information, financial statements, risk mitigation materials, export control and security matters, labor matters, information technology, environmental matters and other legal diligence;

•        review of financial due diligence materials prepared by professional advisors, including quality of earnings reports and tax due diligence reports;

•        technical diligence by a third party systems engineering service provider with significant experience in system and subsystem design and propulsion technology;

•        other financial, tax, legal, human resources and accounting diligence; and

•        discussions with industry experts.

Continued Ownership By Sellers.    The SRAC board of directors considered that the Momentus stockholders would be receiving only stock consideration and would hold approximately 72% of the Combined Company’s outstanding capital stock immediately following completion of the Business Combination and taking into consideration the Repurchase Agreement, assuming no redemptions by SRAC’s public stockholders. The SRAC board considered this as a strong sign of confidence in Momentus following the Business Combination and the benefits to be realized as a result of the Business Combination.

Terms of the Transaction.    The SRAC board of directors reviewed and considered the terms of the Merger Agreement and the related agreements, including the parties’ conditions to their respective obligations to complete the transactions contemplated therein and their ability to terminate the agreement. Please see the sections titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement” and “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination” for detailed discussions of the terms and conditions of these agreements.

The SRAC board of directors also considered a variety of uncertainties and risks and other potentially negative factors concerning the Business Combination, including, but not limited to, the following:

Potential Inability to Complete the Merger.    The SRAC board of directors considered the possibility that the Business Combination may not be completed and the potential adverse consequences to SRAC if the Business Combination is not completed, in particular the expenditure of time and resources in pursuit of the Business Combination and the loss of the opportunity to participate in the transaction. They considered the uncertainty related to the Closing primarily outside of the control of the parties to the transaction, including the need for antitrust approval and approval by SRAC’s stockholders. The Merger Agreement also includes an exclusivity provision that prohibits SRAC from soliciting other initial business combination proposals, which restricts SRAC’s ability to consider other potential initial business combinations until the earlier of the termination of the Merger Agreement or the consummation of the Business Combination.

In addition, the SRAC board of directors considered the risk that the current public stockholders of SRAC would redeem their public shares for cash in connection with consummation of the Business Combination, thereby reducing the amount of cash available to Momentus following the consummation of the Business Combination and potentially requiring Momentus to waive certain conditions under the Merger Agreement in order for the Business Combination to be consummated. The Minimum Cash Condition is for the sole benefit of Momentus. As of the date of the Merger Agreement, without giving effect to any future redemptions that may occur, the trust account had approximately $173 million (as of September 30, 2020).

Momentus’ Business Risks.    The SRAC board of directors considered that SRAC stockholders would be subject to the execution risks associated with Momentus if they retained their public shares following the Closing, which were different from the risks related to holding public shares of SRAC prior to the Closing. In this regard, the SRAC board of directors considered that there were risks associated with successful implementation of Momentus’ long term business plan and strategy and Momentus realizing the anticipated benefits of the Business Combination on the timeline expected or at all. The SRAC board of directors considered that the failure of any of these activities to be completed successfully may decrease the actual benefits of the Business Combination and that SRAC stockholders may not fully realize these benefits to the extent that they expected to retain the public shares following the completion of the Business Combination. For additional description of these risks, please see the section titled “Risk Factors.”

Limitations of Review.    The SRAC board of directors considered that they were not obtaining an opinion from any independent investment banking or accounting firm that the price SRAC is paying to acquire Momentus is fair to SRAC or its stockholders from a financial point of view. In addition, SRAC board of directors considered the limits of the due diligence performed by SRAC’s management and outside advisors and the inherent risk that even a thorough review may not uncover all potential risks of the business. Accordingly, the SRAC board of directors considered that SRAC may not have properly valued the business.

No Survival of Remedies for Breach of Representations, Warranties or Covenants of Momentus.    The SRAC board of directors considered that the terms of the Merger Agreement provide that SRAC will not have any surviving remedies against the sellers of Momentus after the Closing to recover for losses as a result of any inaccuracies or breaches of Momentus’ representations, warranties or covenants set forth in the Merger Agreement. As a result, SRAC stockholders could be adversely affected by, among other things, a decrease in the financial performance or worsening of financial condition of Momentus prior to the Closing, whether determined before or after the Closing, without any ability to reduce the number of shares to be issued in the Business Combination or recover for the amount of any damages. The SRAC board of directors determined that this structure was appropriate and customary in light of the fact that several similar transactions include similar terms and the current holders of Momentus stock will be the majority stockholders in Momentus after the completion of the Business Combination.

Litigation.    The SRAC board of directors considered the possibility of litigation challenging the Business Combination or that an adverse judgment granting permanent injunctive relief could enjoin consummation of the Business Combination.

Liquidation of SRAC.    the SRAC board of directors considered the risks and costs to SRAC’s business if the Business Combination is not completed, including the risk of diverting management focus and resources from other business combination opportunities, which could result in our inability to effect a business combination by May 13, 2021 and force SRAC to liquidate and the warrants to expire worthless.

Fees and Expenses.    The SRAC board of directors considered the fees and expenses associated with completing the Business Combination.

Other Risks.    Various other risks associated with the Business Combination, the business of SRAC and the business of Momentus described under “Risk Factors.”

Interests of Certain Persons.    Some officers and directors of SRAC may have interests in the Business Combination as individuals that are in addition to, and that may be different from, the interests of SRAC’s stockholders (see “The Business Combination and Merger Agreement — Interests of Certain SRAC Persons in the Business Combination.” SRAC’s independent directors reviewed and considered these interests during the negotiation of the Business Combination and in evaluating and unanimously approving, as members of the SRAC board of directors, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated therein, including the Business Combination. SRAC’s board of directors concluded that the potentially disparate interests would be mitigated because (i) these interests were disclosed in the prospectus for the IPO or included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, (ii) these disparate interests would exist with respect to a business combination by SRAC with any other target business or businesses and (iii) a significant portion of the consideration to SRAC’s directors and executive officers was structured to be realized based on the future performance of the Momentus common stock.

COVID-19.    The SRAC board of directors considered the uncertainties regarding the potential impacts of the COVID-19 virus and related economic disruptions on Momentus’ operations and demand for its products.

Based on its review of the forgoing considerations, the SRAC board of directors concluded that the potentially negative factors associated with the Business Combination were outweighed by the potential benefits that it expects SRAC stockholders will receive as a result of the Business Combination. The SRAC board of directors realized that there can be no assurance about future results, including results considered or expected as disclosed in the foregoing reasons.

The preceding discussion of the information and factors considered by the SRAC board of directors is not intended to be exhaustive but includes the material factors considered by the SRAC board of directors. In view of the complexity and wide variety of factors considered by the SRAC board of directors in connection with its evaluation of the Business Combination, the SRAC board of directors did not consider it practical to, nor did it attempt to, quantify, rank or otherwise assign relative weights to the different factors that it considered in reaching its decision. In addition, in considering the factors described above, individual members of the SRAC board of directors may have given different weight to different factors. The SRAC board of directors considered this information as a whole and overall considered the information and factors to be favorable to, and in support of, its determinations and recommendations.

This explanation of the SRAC board of directors’ reasons for its approval of the Business Combination, and all other information presented in this section, is forward-looking in nature and, therefore, should be read in light of the factors discussed under “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements.”

Satisfaction of the 80% Test

It is a requirement under the existing charter and Nasdaq listing requirements that the target business acquired in SRAC’s initial business combination have a fair market value equal to at least 80% of the balance of the funds in the Trust Account at the time of the execution of a definitive agreement for SRAC’s initial business combination. As of October 7, 2020, the date of the execution of the Merger Agreement, the balance of funds held in the Trust Account was at least $173,095,867.91, and 80% thereof represents approximately $138,475,000. The SRAC Board considered all of the factors described above and the fact that the aggregate consideration for Momentus was the result of arm’s length negotiations with Momentus. As a result, SRAC’s board of directors concluded that the fair market value of the business acquired was in excess of 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding any taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account). In light of the financial background and experience of the members of SRAC’s management team and SRAC’s board of directors, SRAC’s board of directors believes that the members of the management team and the SRAC Board are qualified to determine whether the Business Combination meets the 80% test.

Recommendation of Momentus’ Board of Directors and Reasons for the Business Combination

After consideration, Momentus’ board of directors adopted resolutions unanimously determining that the Merger Agreement, the Mergers contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement were advisable, fair to and in the best interests of Momentus and Momentus stockholders, approved the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers, and directed that the Merger Agreement be submitted to the Momentus stockholders for their consideration. Momentus’ board of directors unanimously recommends that the Momentus stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers, by executing and delivering the written consent furnished with this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

In reaching its decision to unanimously approve and declare advisable the Merger Agreement, and in resolving to recommend that Momentus stockholders adopt the Merger Agreement and thereby approve the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Momentus’ board of directors consulted with Momentus’ management, as well as its financial and legal advisors, and considered a number of factors, including its knowledge of Momentus’ business, operations, financial condition, earnings and prospects, and its knowledge of the financial and capital markets. Among the various factors that Momentus’ board of directors considered in favor of its decision are:

•        Other Alternatives.

It is the belief of Momentus’ board of directors, after review of alternative strategic opportunities from time to time, including strategic transactions with other partners and the possibility of, and benefits and risks associated with, continuing to operate Momentus as an independent, stand-alone entity, that the proposed Business Combination represents the best potential transaction for Momentus to create greater value for Momentus stockholders, while also providing greater liquidity for its stockholders by owning stock in a public company.

•        Terms of the Merger Agreement.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, including but not limited to the nature and scope of the closing conditions and the likelihood of obtaining any necessary approvals, in addition to the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Mergers.

•        Consideration Received by Momentus Stockholders.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the amount of consideration to be received by the Momentus Stockholders in the proposed Mergers under the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement.

•        Size of Post-Combination Company.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the implied enterprise value of approximately $1.2 billion for the Combined Company at the closing, providing Momentus Stockholders with the opportunity to go forward with ownership in a public company with a larger market capitalization.

124

Table of Contents

•        Access to Capital.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the current industry trends and market conditions affecting the Company and the cost of alternative means of raising capital and expects that the Business Combination would be a more time- and cost-effective means to access capital and repay its existing indebtedness than other options considered.

•        Benefit from Being a Public Company.

Momentus’ board of directors believes that under new public ownership it will have the flexibility and financial resources to pursue and execute a growth strategy to increase revenue and stockholder value and will benefit from being publicly traded, and can effectively utilize the broader access to capital and public profile that are associated with being a publicly traded company.

•        Opportunity to Increase Earnings and Expand Prospects.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the financial condition, historical results of operations, and business and strategic objectives of the Company, as well as the risks involved in achieving those objectives, and believes that the Business Combination will create an opportunity for Momentus to increase future earnings and cultivate superior prospects compared to continuing to operate Momentus as a private, independent, stand-alone entity.

•        Sponsor Agreement.

Momentus’ board of directors considered that, pursuant to the Sponsor Agreement, among other things, Sponsor and SRAC Partners will surrender to SRAC the Sponsor Contingent Closing Shares, the Sponsor and SRAC Partners agreed to vote all of the shares of the capital stock of the Company they hold, representing approximately 20% of the aggregate voting power of the Company, support the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including agreeing to vote in favor of the adoption of the Merger Agreement at the Special Meeting and not to redeem such shares in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement.

•        Support Agreements.

Momentus’ board of directors considered that Mikhail Kokorich, PML, and an affiliated entity of PML (each, a “Written Consent Party”), which collectively hold (a) a majority of the outstanding voting power of Momentus stock issued and outstanding as of October 7, 2020 (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis), (b) a majority of the shares of Momentus common stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof (voting as a single class) and (c) a majority of the shares of Momentus preferred stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis), entered into Support Agreements with SRAC, pursuant to which, among other things, each Written Consent Party agreed to support the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including agreeing to execute a written consent constituting the requisite Company stockholder approval within three (3) business days of the Registration Statement becoming effective. For a more detailed description of the Support Agreement, see the sections titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination — Support Agreements” beginning on page 109 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

•        Lock-up Agreement.

Momentus’ board of directors also considered that in connection with the consummation of the Mergers, the Company, Momentus and certain Momentus Stockholders who will receive Class A Common Stock will enter into a Lock-Up Agreement. Under the Lock-Up Agreement, such stockholders will agree not to, without the prior written consent of the board of directors of the Company, (i) sell or otherwise dispose of, or agree to sell or dispose of, any shares of Class A Common Stock held by the stockholder immediately after the effective time of the Mergers or any shares of Class A Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options, warrants or other convertible securities to purchase shares of Class A Common Stock held by the stockholder immediately after the effective time of the Mergers (“Lock-Up Shares”), (ii) enter into any arrangement that transfers to another any of the economic consequences of ownership of any of such Lock-Up Shares, or (iii) publicly announce any intention to effect any transaction specified in clause (i) or (ii) for 180 days after the closing date of the Mergers (or, if earlier, the date that the Class A Common Stock trades at or above $12.00 per share for any 20 trading days in a 30 trading day period after the Closing).

125

Table of Contents

•        Registration Rights Agreement.

Momentus’ board of directors also considered that in connection with the consummation of the Mergers, SRAC, Sponsor, certain existing holder(s) of SRAC capital stock (including SRAC Partners) and certain Company stockholders, in each case who will receive SRAC Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby will enter into the Registration Rights Agreement. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, such holders and their permitted transferees will be entitled to certain customary registration rights, including, among other things, demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cut-back provisions. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Sponsor and SRAC Partners will agree not to sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of shares of SRAC Class A common stock or other securities exercisable therefor for certain time periods specified therein. For a more detailed description of the Registration Rights Agreement, see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination — Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement” beginning on page 110 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Momentus’ board of directors also considered the following negative factors:

•        Risk that the Business Combination may not be completed.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the risk that the Business Combination might not be consummated in a timely manner or at all, due to a lack of stockholder approval or failure to satisfy various conditions to closing.

•        Effects on reputation, business and employees if the Business Combination is not completed.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the possibility that the Business Combination might not be completed and that there may be an adverse effect on Momentus’ reputation, business and employees upon the public announcement of the agreement to enter into the Merger Agreement or in the event the Business Combination is not completed.

•        Expenses and challenges.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the expenses to be incurred in connection with the Business Combination and related administrative challenges associated with combining the companies.

•        Costs of being a public company.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the additional public company expenses and obligations that Momentus’ business will be subject to following the closing that it has not previously been subject to as a private company.

•        Restrictions on operation of Momentus’ business.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the fact that, although Momentus will continue to exercise, consistent with the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, control and supervision over its operations prior to the closing, the Merger Agreement generally obligates Momentus, subject to the Company’s prior consent (which consent may not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), to conduct its business in the ordinary course of business consistent with past practice and in accordance with specified restrictions, which might delay or prevent Momentus from undertaking certain business opportunities that might arise pending closing.

•        Interests of Momentus executive officers and directors.

Momentus’ board of directors considered the fact that certain executive officers and directors of Momentus have interests in the Business Combination that may be different from, or in addition to, the interests of Momentus Stockholders generally, including the manner in which they would be affected by the Business Combination and including the CEO Option Grant. Additionally, the Momentus’ board of directors considered the fact that PML, which is affiliated with Dakin Sloss, one of Momentus’ directors, would receive up to $30 million pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, under which SRAC will repurchase up to 3,000,000 of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock to be received by PML pursuant to the Mergers, for a price of $10.00 per share.

•        Other risks.

Momentus’ board of directors considered various other risks associated with the Business Combination, including the risks described in the section titled “Risk Factors.”

The foregoing discussion of the factors considered by Momentus’ board of directors is not intended to be exhaustive, but, rather, includes the material factors considered by Momentus’ board of directors. In reaching its decision to unanimously approve, and declare advisable, the Merger Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, Momentus’ board of directors did not quantify or assign any relative weights to the factors considered, and individual directors may have given different weights to different factors. Momentus’ board of directors considered all these factors as a whole, including discussions with, and questioning of, Momentus’ management and financial and legal advisors, and, overall, considered these factors to be favorable to, and to support, its determination.

Momentus’ board of directors concluded that the potentially negative factors associated with the Business Combination were outweighed by the potential benefits that it expected Momentus Stockholders would receive as a result of the Business Combination, including the belief of Momentus’ board of directors that the Business Combination would maximize the immediate value of shares of Momentus capital stock, and eliminate the risk and uncertainty affecting the future prospects of Momentus, including the potential execution risks associated with going public and pursuing its business plan as a public company. Accordingly, Momentus’ board of directors determined that the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement are advisable and fair to, and in the best interests of, Momentus and its stockholders, and unanimously approved, and declared advisable, the Merger Agreement, the Mergers and the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Momentus’ board of directors recommends that Momentus Stockholders consent to the Momentus Proposal described in the section titled “Momentus Solicitation of Written Consents — Purpose of the Consent Solicitation” beginning on page 86 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Interests of the Momentus Directors and Executive Officers

Momentus’ directors and executive officers have interests in the Business Combination that are different from, or in addition to, those of SRAC’s stockholders and warrant holders generally. These interests include, among other things, the interests listed below:

Treatment of Momentus Equity Awards in the Business Combination

Under the Merger Agreement, all outstanding stock options (other than a single non-plan option, which will be cancelled as of the Closing) and restricted stock awards granted by Momentus prior to the Closing will be converted to awards for an adjusted number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock (and in the case of options, an adjusted exercise price), which will otherwise be subject to same terms and conditions as were in effect prior to the Closing.

Mr. Kokorich will hold (i) an option to purchase 1,695,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock with an exercise price per share of $0.032, of which 459,063 shares are unvested as of October 23, 2020 and (ii) an option to purchase 26,696 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock with an exercise price per share of $0.206, of which 7,231 shares are unvested as of October 23, 2020.

For additional information, please see the section titled “Executive Compensation — Executive Compensation Arrangements — Post-Closing Agreements.”

Repurchase Agreement

At the Closing, PML, Momentus and SRAC will enter into the Repurchase Agreement pursuant to which, amongst other things, SRAC has agreed to repurchase a certain number of shares of SRAC Class A Common Stock from PML, at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, immediately following the Closing (the “Repurchase”). Dakin Sloss, one of Momentus’ current directors is the manager of an entity that controls PML. The Repurchase is contingent on the amount of available cash SRAC has at the Closing from (a) the PIPE Investment (and any alternative financing arranged by SRAC and Momentus in the event the PIPE Investment becomes unavailable) and (b) the funds in the Trust Account (after taking into account payments required to satisfy SRAC’s Share Redemptions), after further

deducting the amount of SRAC’s transaction expenses and Momentus’ transaction expenses (“Net Proceeds”) being in excess of $265 million. If Net Proceeds exceed $265 million but are less than $280 million, the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to the Repurchase will be equal to the amount by which Net Proceeds exceed $250 million, divided by $10.00. In the event Net Proceeds are in excess of $280 million, the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to the Repurchase will be equal to $30 million, divided by $10.00. For more information on the Repurchase Agreement, please see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination — Repurchase Agreement.”

Employee Benefits

The Merger Agreement requires the Combined Company to continue to provide certain compensation and benefits for at least a period of one year following the Closing, as well as to take certain actions in respect of employee benefits provided to continuing employees of Momentus, including its executive officers. Assuming the value of each executive officer’s benefits is approximately $2,500 a month, each of Mr. Kokorich, Mr. Kennedy, Mr. Kim, Dawn Harms and Alexander Fishkin will each receive approximately $30,000 in benefits for the one-year period following the Closing.

Director Compensation

In connection with the Business Combination, the Combined Company Board will adopt a new non-employee director compensation policy to govern the Combined Company effective as of the Closing, which provides for annual cash retainers and certain equity awards that will be granted following the Business Combination. Vincent Deno will receive cash fees in the amount of $75,000 and restricted stock unit grants initially valued at $177,083 assuming a Closing Date of December 31, 2020. For more information on the non-employee director compensation policy, see the section titled “Executive Compensation — Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy” below.

Interests of Certain SRAC Persons in the Business Combination

When you consider the recommendation of the SRAC Board in favor of approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the other Proposals included herein, you should keep in mind that the Sponsor and SRAC’s directors have interests in such Proposal that are different from, or in addition to, those of our stockholders and warrant holders generally. The SRAC Board was aware of and considered these interests, among other matters, in evaluating and negotiating the Business Combination and Merger Agreement and in recommending to our stockholders that they vote in favor of the Proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal. SRAC stockholders should take these interests into account in deciding whether to approve the Proposals presented at the Special Meeting, including the Business Combination Proposal. These interests include, among other things:

•        If we do not consummate a business combination by May 13, 2021 (or if such date is extended at a duly called meeting of our stockholders, such later date), we would (1) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up; (2) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account, including interest (which interest shall be net of taxes payable, and less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any); and (3) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of our remaining stockholders and our Board, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to our obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. In such event, the 4,136,029 shares of Class B common stock owned by our Sponsor and the 176,471 shares of Class B common stock owned by SRAC Partners would be worthless because following the redemption of the public shares, we would likely have few, if any, net assets and because the Sponsor and each of SRAC’s officers and directors have agreed to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such shares if we fail to complete a business combination within the required period. Additionally, in such event, the 495,000 private placement units that the Sponsor paid $4.95 million for will expire worthless. All of SRAC’s officers and directors have a direct or indirect economic interest in such shares and private placement units. The 4,312,500 shares of Class A common stock that the initial stockholders and their permitted transferees will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had aggregate market value of approximately $71.2 million based upon the closing price of $16.50 per share

130

Table of Contents

of Class A common stock on Nasdaq on December 11, 2020, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Given such shares of Class A common stock will be subject to certain restrictions, we believe such shares have less value. The 495,000 private placement units that the Sponsor will hold following the Business Combination, if unrestricted and freely tradable, would have had an aggregate market value of approximately $9.7 million based upon the closing price of $19.50 per unit on Nasdaq on December 11, 2020, the most recent practicable date prior to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

•        Our Sponsor holds 495,000 private placement units and Cantor owns 50,000 private placement units that would expire worthless if a business combination is not consummated.

•        Our Sponsor, its officers and directors, and or Sponsor’s affiliate, SRAC Partners, have agreed not to redeem any of the founder shares or shares of Class A common stock (including private placement shares) held by them in connection with a stockholder vote to approve the Business Combination.

•        Our Sponsor paid an aggregate of $25,000 for its founder shares and such securities will have a significantly higher value at the time of the Business Combination, which, after giving effect to the transfer of shares to SRAC Partners, if unrestricted and freely tradable would be valued at approximately $71.2 million, based on the closing price of our Class A common stock on December 11, 2020.

•        If the Trust Account is liquidated, including in the event we are unable to complete an initial business combination within the required time period, our Sponsor has agreed to indemnify us to ensure that the proceeds in the Trust Account are not reduced below $10.00 per public share, or such lesser amount per public share as is in the Trust Account on the liquidation date, by the claims of prospective target businesses with which we have entered into an acquisition agreement or claims of any third party for services rendered or products sold to us, but only if such a vendor or target business has not executed a waiver of any and all rights to seek access to the Trust Account.

•        the continuation of Brian Kabot, one of our existing directors, as a director of the Combined Company following the Closing.

•        Our officers were not permitted to become a director or officer of any other blank check company until we entered into a definitive agreement regarding an initial business combination.

•        Our Sponsor, its officers and directors, and our Sponsor’s affiliate, SRAC Partners, will lose their entire investment in us if an initial business combination is not completed.

•        Our existing officers and directors will be eligible for continued indemnification and continued coverage under a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy after the Business Combination.

•        We will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement with our Sponsor and certain existing holder(s) of our capital stock (including SRAC Partners) and certain Momentus stockholders, which provides for registration rights to such parties.

The existence of financial and personal interests of one or more of SRAC’s directors may result in a conflict of interest on the part of such director(s) between what he or they may believe is in the best interests of SRAC and its stockholders and what he or they may believe is best for himself or themselves in determining to recommend that stockholders vote for the Proposals.

The financial and personal interests of the Sponsor as well as SRAC’s directors may have influenced their motivation in identifying and selecting Momentus as a business combination target, completing an initial business combination with Momentus and influencing the operation of the business following the initial business combination. In considering the recommendations of SRAC’s board of directors to vote for the Proposals, its stockholders should consider these interests.

Certain Forecasted Financial Information for Momentus

Momentus does not as a matter of course make public projections as to future sales, earnings, or other results. However, management of Momentus provided internally prepared projections to SRAC presenting the projected total revenue, adjusted EBITDA and certain cash flow metrics of Momentus for each calendar year through 2027. The prospective financial information provided by Momentus management to SRAC was not prepared with a view toward

131

Table of Contents

compliance with SEC disclosure requirements or the guidelines established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants with respect to prospective financial information, but in the view of Momentus’ management, reflects to the best of management’s knowledge and reasonable belief at the time of preparation, the expected course of action and the expected future financial performance of Momentus as of the date of preparation. These projections were prepared solely for internal use, capital budgeting and other management purposes, are subjective in many respects and therefore susceptible to varying interpretations and the need for periodic revision based on actual experience and business developments, and were not intended for third-party use, including by investors or stockholders. Moreover, this information is not fact and should not be relied upon as being indicative of future results, and readers of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus are cautioned not to place undue reliance on prospective financial information.

The projections reflect numerous assumptions, including assumptions with respect to general business, economic, market, regulatory and financial conditions and various other factors, all of which are difficult to predict and many of which are beyond Momentus’ control, such as the risks and uncertainties contained in the section entitled “Risk Factors.” Except as specifically noted herein, the projections reflect the consistent application of the accounting policies of Momentus and should be read in conjunction with the accounting policies included in Note 2 accompanying the historical audited combined financial statements of Momentus included in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. The projections of Momentus’ included certain revenue metrics which were not calculated in accordance with Accounting Standard Codification 606 (“ASC 606”) and therefore should not be considered comparable or equivalent to GAAP revenue. SRAC considered Momentus’ methodology for recognizing revenue in evaluating the projected financial information. The projections set forth below include a comparison of management’s projections to projections prepared on the basis of GAAP revenue recognized in accordance with ASC 606. SRAC considered Momentus’ methodology for recognize revenue in evaluating the projected financial information. The projections set forth below include a comparison of management’s projections to projections prepared on the basis of GAAP revenue recognized in accordance with ASC 606.

The financial projections are forward-looking statements that are based on growth assumptions that are inherently subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, including the risks discussed in the section of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus titled “Risk Factors,” many of which are beyond Momentus’ control. There will be differences between actual and projected results, and actual results may be materially greater or materially less than those contained in the projections. The inclusion of the projections in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus should not be regarded as an indication that SRAC, Momentus or their respective representatives considered or consider the projections to be a reliable prediction of future events, and reliance should not be placed on the projections in making a decision regarding the Business Combination given that the projections may be materially different than actual results.

Furthermore, the financial projections do not take into account any circumstances or events occurring after the date they were prepared. None of Momentus’ independent registered accounting firm, SRAC’s independent registered accounting firm or any other independent accountants, have compiled, examined or performed any procedures with respect to the financial projections included below, nor have they expressed any opinion or any other form of assurance on such information or their achievability, and they assume no responsibility for, and disclaim any association with, the financial projections. Accordingly, they should not be looked upon as “guidance” of any sort. Momentus will not refer back to these forecasts in its future periodic reports filed under the Exchange Act. Nonetheless, a summary of the financial projections is provided in this proxy statement/consent solicitation/prospectus because they were made available to SRAC and our board of directors in connection with their review of the proposed transaction.

EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE FEDERAL SECURITIES LAWS, BY INCLUDING IN THIS PROXY STATEMENT/CONSENT SOLICITATION/PROSPECTUS A SUMMARY OF THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS FOR MOMENTUS, EACH OF SRAC AND MOMENTUS UNDERTAKES NO OBLIGATIONS AND EXPRESSLY DISCLAIMS ANY RESPONSIBILITY TO UPDATE OR REVISE, OR PUBLICLY DISCLOSE ANY UPDATE OR REVISION TO, THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS TO REFLECT CIRCUMSTANCES OR EVENTS, INCLUDING UNANTICIPATED EVENTS, THAT MAY HAVE OCCURRED OR THAT MAY OCCUR AFTER THE PREPARATION OF THESE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, EVEN IN THE EVENT THAT ANY OR ALL OF THE ASSUMPTIONS UNDERLYING THE FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS ARE SHOWN TO BE IN ERROR OR CHANGE.

SRAC’s management also considered a comparable company analysis to assess the value that the public markets would likely ascribe to Momentus and this analysis was presented to the SRAC Board. These companies were selected by SRAC as publicly traded companies having businesses that were considered, in certain respects, to be similar to the Combined Company’s business. Although none of the selected companies reviewed in this analysis were directly comparable to Momentus, the companies had one or more similar operating and financial characteristics as Momentus.

SRAC looked at several categories of potentially comparable companies, including traditional launch providers, such as Avio and Aerojet Rocketdyne, and larger defense or aerospace companies, including Airbus, Boeing, L3Harris, Lockheed Martin, Maxar Technologies, Northrup Grumman and Thales. In addition, SRAC reviewed a comparable company analysis based on Virgin Galactic estimates for 2024 and 2025. The SRAC Board reviewed the enterprise value divided by revenue and EBITDA of each of the selected companies. These estimates are based on publicly available consensus research analysts’ estimates and other publicly available information, all as of October 2, 2020. In addition, all estimates were calendarized to December year-ends.

The enterprise value divided by revenue and EBITDA for the selected companies are summarized in the table below:

Accounting Treatment of the Business Combination

The Business Combination is accounted for as a reverse recapitalization, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded, in accordance with GAAP. Under this method of accounting, SRAC is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the Business Combination is treated as the equivalent of Momentus issuing stock for the net assets of SRAC, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of SRAC are stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. The determination is primarily based on the evaluation of the following facts and circumstances taking into consideration both the no redemption and maximum redemption scenarios:

•        Momentus’ existing stockholders will have the greater voting interest in the Combined Company with an estimated 72.8% voting interest under a No Redemption Scenario as of immediately following the Closing;

134

Table of Contents

•        by virtue of such estimated voting interest upon the Closing, Momentus’ existing stockholders will have the ability to control decisions regarding the election and removal of directors and officers of Combined Company following the Closing; and

•         Momentus’ senior management will be the senior management of the Combined Company.

Other factors were considered but they would not change the preponderance of factors indicating that Momentus was the accounting acquirer.

Regulatory Matters

Under the HSR Act and the rules that have been promulgated thereunder by the U.S. Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”), certain transactions may not be consummated unless information has been furnished to the Antitrust Division of the Department of Justice (“Antitrust Division”) and the FTC and certain waiting period requirements have been satisfied. The Business Combination is subject to these requirements and may not be completed until the expiration of a 30-day waiting period following the filing of the required Notification and Report Forms with the Antitrust Division and the FTC or until early termination is granted. On October 22, 2020, SRAC and Momentus filed the required forms under the HSR Act with the Antitrust Division and the FTC, and the parties were granted early termination of the HSR Act 30-day waiting period on November 3, 2020.

At any time before or after the Closing, notwithstanding termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act, the applicable competition authorities could take such action under applicable antitrust laws as each deems necessary or desirable in the public interest, including seeking to enjoin the Closing. Private parties may also seek to take legal action under the antitrust laws under certain circumstances. SRAC cannot assure you that the Antitrust Division, the FTC, any state attorney general, or any other government authority will not attempt to challenge the Business Combination on antitrust grounds, and, if such a challenge is made, SRAC cannot assure you as to its result. Neither SRAC nor Momentus is aware of any material regulatory approvals or actions that are required for the Closing other than the expiration or early termination of the waiting period under the HSR Act. It is presently contemplated that if any such additional regulatory approvals or actions are required, those approvals or actions will be sought. There can be no assurance, however, that any additional approvals or actions will be obtained.

CERTAIN UNITED STATES FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS

The following discussion of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations for beneficial owners of Class A common stock (i) of electing to have their Class A common stock redeemed for cash if the Business Combination is completed and (ii) of the Business Combination represents the opinion of Kirkland & Ellis LLP, United States tax counsel to SRAC, based on, and subject to, customary assumptions, qualifications and limitations, and the assumptions, qualifications and limitations herein and in the opinion included as Exhibit 8.1 hereto, as well as representations of SRAC.

Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Considerations of the Redemption

The following is a discussion of certain material U.S. federal income tax considerations for holders of our shares of Class A common stock that elect to have their Class A common stock redeemed for cash if the Business Combination is completed. This discussion applies only to Class A common stock that is held as a capital asset for U.S. federal income tax purposes. This discussion is limited to U.S. federal income tax considerations, and does not address estate or any gift tax considerations or considerations arising under the tax laws of any state, local or non-U.S. jurisdiction. This discussion does not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to you in light of your particular circumstances, including the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain investment income and the different consequences that may apply if you are subject to special rules that apply to certain types of investors, such as:

•        banks and financial institutions or financial services entities;

•        broker dealers;

•        insurance companies;

•        dealers or traders in securities subject to a mark-to-market method of accounting with respect to shares of Class A common stock;

•        persons holding Class A common stock as part of a “straddle,” hedge, integrated transaction or similar transaction;

•        U.S. holders (as defined below) whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

•        “specified foreign corporations” (including “controlled foreign corporations”), “passive foreign investment companies” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

•        U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the U.S.;

•        governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof and qualified foreign pension funds;

•        regulated investment companies (RICs) or real estate investment trusts (REITs);

•        persons subject to the alternative minimum tax provisions of the Code;

•        persons who received their shares of Class A common stock as compensation;

•        partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

•        persons holding founder shares;

•        persons required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to Class A common stock as a result of such income being recognized on an applicable financial statement; and

•        tax-exempt entities.

If you are a partnership (or other pass-through entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of your partners (or other owners) will generally depend on the status of the partners and your activities. Partnerships and their partners (or other owners) should consult their tax advisors with respect to the consequences to them of electing to have their Class A common stock redeemed for cash if the Business Combination is completed.

Table of Contents

This discussion is based on the Code and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations as of the date hereof, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus may affect the tax consequences described herein. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a contrary position. No advance ruling has been or will be sought from the IRS regarding any matter discussed in this discussion. This discussion does not address any aspect of state, local or non-U.S. taxation, or any U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes (such as gift and estate taxes). You are urged to consult your tax advisor with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to your particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction.

Redemption of Class A Common Stock

In the event that a holder’s shares of Class A common stock are redeemed pursuant to the redemption provisions described in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus under the section titled “SRAC Special Meeting of Stockholders — Redemption Rights,” the treatment of the redemption for U.S. federal income tax purposes will depend on whether the redemption qualifies as a sale or other exchange of shares of Class A common stock under Section 302 of the Code. If the redemption qualifies as a sale of shares of Class A common stock, a U.S. holder (as defined below) will be treated as described below under the section titled “— U.S. Holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock,” and a Non-U.S. holder (as defined below) will be treated as described under the section titled “— Non-U.S. Holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock.” If the redemption does not qualify as a sale of shares of Class A common stock, a holder will be treated as receiving a corporate distribution with the tax consequences to a U.S. holder described below under the section titled “— U.S. Holders — Taxation of Distributions,” and the tax consequences to a Non-U.S. holder described below under the section titled “— Non-U.S. Holder — Taxation of Distributions.”

Whether a redemption of shares of Class A common stock qualifies for sale treatment will depend largely on the total number of shares of our stock treated as held by the redeemed holder before and after the redemption (including any stock constructively owned by the holder including as a result of owning private placement warrants or public warrants and any of our stock that a holder would directly or indirectly acquire pursuant to the Business Combination or the PIPE Investment) relative to all of our shares outstanding both before and after the redemption. The redemption of Class A common stock generally will be treated as a sale of Class A common stock (rather than as a corporate distribution) if the redemption (1) is “substantially disproportionate” with respect to the holder, (2) results in a “complete termination” of the holder’s interest in us or (3) is “not essentially equivalent to a dividend” with respect to the holder. These tests are explained more fully below.

In determining whether any of the foregoing tests result in a redemption qualifying for sale treatment, a holder takes into account not only shares of our stock actually owned by the holder, but also shares of our stock that are constructively owned by it. A holder may constructively own, in addition to stock owned directly, stock owned by certain related individuals and entities in which the holder has an interest or that have an interest in such holder, as well as any stock that the holder has a right to acquire by exercise of an option, which would generally include Class A common stock which could be acquired pursuant to the exercise of the private placement warrants or the public warrants. Moreover, any of our stock that a holder directly or constructively acquires pursuant to the Business Combination or the PIPE Investment generally should be included in determining the U.S. federal income tax treatment of the redemption.

In order to meet the substantially disproportionate test, the percentage of our outstanding voting stock actually and constructively owned by the holder immediately following the redemption of shares of Class A common stock must, among other requirements, be less than 80 percent (80%) of the percentage of our outstanding voting stock actually and constructively owned by the holder immediately before the redemption (taking into account both redemptions by other holders of Class A common stock and the Class A common stock to be issued pursuant to the Business Combination or the PIPE Investment). There will be a complete termination of a holder’s interest if either (1) all of the shares of our stock actually and constructively owned by the holder are redeemed or (2) all of the shares of our stock actually owned by the holder are redeemed and the holder is eligible to waive, and effectively waives in accordance with specific rules, the attribution of stock owned by certain family members and the holder does not constructively own any other stock.

The redemption of Class A common stock will not be essentially equivalent to a dividend if the redemption results in a “meaningful reduction” of the holder’s proportionate interest in us. Whether the redemption will result in a meaningful reduction in a holder’s proportionate interest in us will depend on the particular facts and circumstances. However, the IRS has indicated in a published ruling that even a small reduction in the proportionate interest of a small minority stockholder in a publicly held corporation where such stockholder exercises no control over corporate affairs may constitute such a “meaningful reduction.”

137

Table of Contents

If none of the foregoing tests is satisfied, then the redemption of shares of Class A common stock will be treated as a corporate distribution to the redeemed holder and the tax effects to such a U.S. holder will be as described below under the section titled “U.S. Holders — Taxation of Distributions,” and the tax effects to such a Non-U.S. holder will be as described below under the section titled “Non-U.S. Holders — Taxation of Distributions.” After the application of those rules, any remaining tax basis of the holder in the redeemed Class A common stock will be added to the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its remaining stock, or, if it has none, possibly to the holder’s adjusted tax basis in its warrants or in other stock constructively owned by it. A holder should consult with its own tax advisors as to the tax consequences of a redemption.

U.S. Holders

This section applies to you if you are a “U.S. holder.” A U.S. holder is a beneficial owner of our shares of Class A common stock who or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•        an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

•        a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•        an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation purposes regardless of its source; or

•        an entity treated as a trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more such U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust or (ii) it has a valid election in effect under Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

Taxation of Distributions.    If our redemption of a U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock is treated as a corporate distribution, as discussed above under the section titled “— Redemption of Class A Common Stock,” such distribution generally will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of current and accumulated earnings and profits will constitute a return of capital that will be applied against and reduce (but not below zero) the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in our Class A common stock. Any remaining excess will be treated as gain realized on the sale or other disposition of the Class A common stock and will be treated as described below under the section titled “— U.S. Holders — Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock.

Dividends we pay to a U.S. holder that is a taxable corporation (i) generally will be eligible for a dividends-received deduction (subject to certain holding period, at risk and other requirements and limitations) and (ii) generally may be subject to the “extraordinary dividend” provisions of the Code (which could cause a reduction in the tax basis of such U.S. Holder’s Shares and cause such U.S. Holder to recognize capital gain). Corporate U.S. holders are urged to consult their tax advisors concerning the availability of the dividends-received deduction and the application of the “extraordinary dividend” provisions of the Code in their particular circumstances.

With certain exceptions, and provided certain holding period requirements are met, dividends we pay to a non-corporate U.S. holder generally will constitute “qualified dividends” that will be subject to tax at the maximum tax rate accorded to long-term capital gains. It is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the Class A common stock described in this proxy statement may prevent a U.S. holder from satisfying the applicable holding period requirements with respect to the dividends received deduction or the preferential tax rate on qualified dividend income, as the case may be.

Gain or Loss on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock.    If our redemption of a U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock qualifies for sale treatment, as discussed above under the section titled “— Redemption of Class A Common Stock,” a U.S. holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss in an amount equal to the difference between the amount of cash received and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the shares of Class A common stock redeemed. A U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its Class A common stock generally will equal the U.S. holder’s acquisition cost less any prior distributions paid to such U.S. holder with respect to its shares of Class A common stock treated as a return of capital. Any such capital gain or loss generally will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period for the Class A common stock so disposed of exceeds one year.

138

Table of Contents

It is unclear whether the redemption rights with respect to the Class A common stock described in this proxy statement may prevent a U.S. holder from satisfying the applicable holding period for this purpose. Long-term capital gains recognized by noncorporate U.S. holders will be eligible to be taxed at reduced rates. The deductibility of capital losses is subject to limitations. U.S. holders who hold different blocks of Class A common stock (shares of Class A common stock purchased or acquired on different dates or at different prices) should consult their tax advisors to determine how the above rules apply to them.

Non-U.S. Holders

This section applies to you if you are a “Non-U.S. holder.” A Non-U.S. holder is a beneficial owner of our Class A common stock who, or that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes:

•        a non-resident alien individual, other than certain former citizens and residents of the United States subject to U.S. tax as expatriates;

•        a foreign corporation; or

•        an estate or trust that is not a U.S. holder.

Taxation of Distributions.    If our redemption of a Non-U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock is treated as a corporate distribution, as discussed above under the section titled “— Redemption of Class A Common Stock,” to the extent paid out of our current or accumulated earnings and profits (as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles), such distribution will constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes and, provided such dividend is not effectively connected with the Non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States, we will be required to withhold tax from the gross amount of the dividend at a rate of 30 percent (30%), unless such Non-U.S. holder is eligible for a reduced rate of withholding tax under an applicable income tax treaty and timely provides proper certification of its eligibility for such reduced rate (usually on an IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E). Any distribution not constituting a dividend will be treated first as reducing (but not below zero) the Non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in its shares of our Class A common stock and, to the extent such distribution exceeds the Non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis, as gain realized from the sale or other disposition of the Class A common stock, which will be treated as described below under the section titled “— Non-U.S. Holders — Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock.”

The withholding tax described in the preceding paragraph does not apply to dividends paid to a Non-U.S. holder who provides an IRS Form W-8ECI certifying that the dividends are effectively connected with the Non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business within the United States. Instead, the effectively connected dividends will be subject to regular U.S. federal income tax as if the Non-U.S. holder were a U.S. resident, subject to an applicable income tax treaty providing otherwise. A Non-U.S. holder that is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes and is receiving effectively connected dividends may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” imposed at a rate of 30 percent (30%) (or a lower applicable income tax treaty rate).

Gain on Sale, Taxable Exchange or Other Taxable Disposition of Class A Common Stock.    If our redemption of a Non-U.S. holder’s shares of Class A common stock qualifies for sale treatment as discussed above under the section titled “— Redemption of Class A Common Stock,” subject to the discussions of FATCA (as defined below) and backup withholding below, a Non-U.S. holder generally will not be subject to U.S. federal income or withholding tax in respect of the redemption, unless:

•        the gain is effectively connected with the conduct of a trade or business by the Non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, under certain income tax treaties, is attributable to a United States permanent establishment or fixed base maintained by the Non-U.S. holder);

•        such Non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more during the taxable year in which the disposition takes place and certain other conditions are met; or

•        we are or have been a “United States real property holding corporation” for U.S. federal income tax purposes at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of disposition or the period that the Non-U.S. holder held our Class A common stock and, in the circumstance in which shares of our Class A common stock are regularly traded on an established securities market, the Non-U.S. holder

139

Table of Contents

has owned, directly or constructively, more than 5% of our Class A common stock at any time within the shorter of the five-year period preceding the redemption or such Non-U.S. holder’s holding period for the shares of our Class A common stock. There can be no assurance that our Class A common stock will be treated as regularly traded on an established securities market for this purpose.

Unless an applicable treaty provides otherwise, gain described in the first bullet point above will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates as if the Non-U.S. holder were a U.S. resident. Any gains described in the first bullet point above of a Non-U.S. holder that is a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes may also be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” at a 30 percent (30%) rate (or lower income tax treaty rate). If the second bullet point applies to a Non-U.S. holder, such Non-U.S. holder will be subject to U.S. tax on such Non-U.S. holder’s net capital gain for such year (including any gain realized in connection with the redemption) at a tax rate of 30 percent (30%).

If the third bullet point above applies to a Non-U.S. holder, gain recognized by such holder in the redemption will be subject to tax at generally applicable U.S. federal income tax rates. In addition, unless our Class A common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market, we may be required to withhold U.S. federal income tax at a rate of fifteen percent (15%) of the amount realized upon such redemption. There can be no assurance that our Class A common stock will be treated as regularly traded on an established securities market. We believe that we are not, and have not been at any time since our formation, a United States real property holding corporation and we do not expect to be a United States real property holding corporation immediately after the Business Combination is completed.

Information Reporting and Backup Withholding

Dividend payments with respect to our Class A common stock and proceeds from the sale, taxable exchange or taxable redemption of our Class A common stock may be subject to information reporting to the IRS and possible United States backup withholding. Backup withholding will not apply, however, to a U.S. holder who furnishes a correct taxpayer identification number and makes other required certifications, or who is otherwise exempt from backup withholding and establishes such exempt status.

Amounts treated as dividends that are paid to a Non-U.S. holder are generally subject to reporting on IRS Form 1042-S even if the payments are exempt from withholding. A Non-U.S. holder generally will eliminate any other requirement for information reporting and backup withholding by providing certification of its foreign status, under penalties of perjury, on a duly executed applicable IRS Form W-8 or by otherwise establishing an exemption.

Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Amounts withheld as backup withholding may be credited against a holder’s United States federal income tax liability, and a holder generally may obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules by timely filing the appropriate claim for refund with the IRS and furnishing any required information.

FATCA Withholding Taxes

Provisions commonly referred to as “FATCA” impose withholding of 30 percent (30%) on payments of dividends (including amounts treated as dividends received pursuant to a redemption of stock) on our Class A common stock. Previously, withholding with respect to the gross proceeds of a disposition of any stock, debt instrument, or other property that can produce U.S.-source dividends or interest was scheduled to begin on January 1, 2019; however, such withholding has been eliminated under proposed U.S. Treasury regulations, which can be relied on until final regulations become effective. In general, no such withholding will be required with respect to a U.S. holder or an individual Non-U.S. holder that timely provides the certifications required on a valid IRS Form W-9 or W-8, respectively. Holders potentially subject to withholding include “foreign financial institutions” (which is broadly defined for this purpose and in general includes investment vehicles) and certain other non-U.S. entities unless various U.S. information reporting and due diligence requirements (generally relating to ownership by U.S. persons of interests in or accounts with those entities) have been satisfied, or an exemption applies (typically certified as to by the delivery of a properly completed IRS Form W-8BEN-E). If FATCA withholding is imposed, a beneficial owner that is not a foreign financial institution generally will be entitled to a refund of any amounts withheld by filing a U.S. federal income tax return (which may entail significant administrative burden). Foreign financial institutions located in

140

Table of Contents

jurisdictions that have an intergovernmental agreement with the United States governing FATCA may be subject to different rules. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisers regarding the effects of FATCA on a redemption of Class A common stock.

Certain Material U.S. Federal Income Tax Consequences of the Mergers to Holders of Momentus Capital Stock that are U.S. Holders

The following is a summary of certain material U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Mergers to holders of Momentus capital stock that are “U.S. holders” (as defined below). The discussion applies only to holders of Momentus capital stock that are U.S. holders and that hold the Momentus capital stock as a capital asset within the meaning of Section 1221 of the Code (generally, property held for investment), This discussion is limited to U.S. federal income tax considerations, and does not address estate or any gift tax considerations or considerations arising under the tax laws of any state, local or non-U.S. jurisdiction. This discussion does not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax consequences that may be relevant to a Momentus stockholder in light of its particular circumstances, including the alternative minimum tax, the Medicare tax on certain investment income and the different consequences that may apply if a Momentus stockholder is subject to special rules that apply to certain types of investors, such as:

•        banks and financial institutions or financial services entities;

•        broker dealers;

•        insurance companies;

•        dealers or traders in securities subject to a mark-to-market method of accounting with respect to shares of Momentus capital stock;

•        persons holding Momentus capital stock as part of a “straddle,” hedge, integrated transaction or similar transaction;

•        U.S. holders whose functional currency is not the U.S. dollar;

•        “specified foreign corporations” (including “controlled foreign corporations”), “passive foreign investment companies” and corporations that accumulate earnings to avoid U.S. federal income tax;

•        U.S. expatriates or former long-term residents of the U.S.;

•        governments or agencies or instrumentalities thereof and qualified foreign pension funds;

•        regulated investment companies (RICs) or real estate investment trusts (REITs);

•        persons who received their shares of Momentus capital stock as compensation;

•        partnerships or other pass-through entities for U.S. federal income tax purposes;

•        persons who exercise appraisal or dissenter rights with respect to Momentus capital stock;

•        persons required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income with respect to Momentus capital stock as a result of such income being recognized on an applicable financial statement; and

•        tax-exempt entities.

If a partnership (or other pass-through entity) for U.S. federal income tax purposes is the beneficial owner of the Momentus capital stock, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of partners (or other owners) in the partnership will generally depend on the status of the partners and the partnership’s activities. Partnerships and their partners (or other owners) should consult their tax advisors with respect to the consequences to them of the Mergers.

This discussion is based on the Code and administrative pronouncements, judicial decisions and final, temporary and proposed Treasury regulations as of the date hereof, changes to any of which subsequent to the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus may affect the tax consequences described herein. No assurance can be given that the IRS would not assert, or that a court would not sustain, a contrary position. No advance ruling has been or will be sought from the IRS regarding any matter discussed in this discussion. The obligation of the parties to

141

Table of Contents

consummate the Mergers are not conditioned upon the receipt of such a ruling or opinion. No assurance can be given that the Mergers will qualify as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code. This discussion does not address any aspect of state, local or non-U.S. taxation, or any U.S. federal taxes other than income taxes (such as gift and estate taxes). Momentus stockholders are urged to consult with their tax advisors with respect to the application of U.S. federal tax laws to their particular situation, as well as any tax consequences arising under the laws of any state, local or foreign jurisdiction.

Further, the following discussion assumes that the entire Merger Consideration is being received in consideration for the Momentus capital stock in the Mergers and not as compensation for services or for some other reason, and with respect to holders of Momentus capital stock whose shares were subject to vesting restrictions at the time such shares were acquired, the discussion assumes that a valid Code Section 83(b) election was made with respect to such shares. Finally, the following discussion does not address (i) the tax consequences with respect to the repurchase of Combined Company Class A common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement, (ii) the tax consequences of transactions occurring prior to, concurrently with or after the Mergers (whether or not such transactions are in connection with the Mergers) including, without limitation, the conversion of convertible notes into Momentus capital stock, and the conversion or exercise of warrants, options or rights to purchase Momentus capital stock in anticipation of or in connection with the Mergers, (iii) the tax consequences that may be relevant to the Momentus stockholders that receive Combined Company Class A common stock that is subject to vesting restrictions, (iv) the tax consequences of the Mergers to holders of Momentus simple agreement for future equity, or SAFEs, holders of notes, convertible notes, options or warrants, convertible equity securities, or other rights to acquire an equity interest in Momentus, (v) the tax consequences regarding any compensatory payments made to the holders of Momentus capital stock in connection with the Mergers, or (vi) the tax consequences with respect to holders of Momentus capital stock who exercise appraisal or dissenter rights.

For purposes of this discussion, “U.S. holder” is a beneficial owner of Momentus capital stock that for U.S. federal income tax purposes is:

•        an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States;

•        a corporation (or other entity taxable as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes) organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia;

•        an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation purposes regardless of its source; or

•        an entity treated as a trust for U.S. federal income tax purposes if (i) a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of such trust, and one or more such U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of such trust or (ii) it has a valid election in effect under Treasury regulations to be treated as a U.S. person.

The following discussion does not apply to holders of Momentus capital stock that are not U.S. holders. Holders of Momentus capital stock that are not U.S. holders will need to consult with their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of the Mergers.

In general.

It is intended that the Mergers together will constitute an integrated transaction that qualifies as a “reorganization” under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Code, and the Merger Agreement provides that SRAC and Momentus will report the Mergers for all income tax purposes in accordance with the foregoing, including the filing of the statement required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-3, unless otherwise required by a governmental entity as a result of a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. However, there are many requirements that must be satisfied in order for the Mergers to qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code, some of which are based upon factual determinations, and the reorganization treatment could be adversely affected by events or actions that occur or are taken after the Mergers. Holders of Momentus capital stock should consult with their tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of the Mergers and the requirements that must be satisfied in order for the Mergers to qualify as a “reorganization” under Section 368(a) of the Code, and whether the First Merger would otherwise qualify for tax-free treatment under Section 351 of the Code in the event that the Mergers fail to qualify as a “reorganization” under the provisions of Section 368(a) of the Code.

Tax Consequences if the Mergers Qualify as a Reorganization.

Provided that the Mergers qualify as a reorganization, the following U.S. federal income tax consequences will result to a Momentus stockholder in the Mergers:

•        No gain or loss will be recognized by a Momentus stockholder for U.S. federal income tax purposes on the exchange of its shares of Momentus capital stock for Combined Company Class A common stock in the First Merger, except with respect to cash received in lieu of fractional shares.

•        The aggregate tax basis of Combined Company Class A common stock received in the First Merger by a Momentus stockholder will be equal to the aggregate tax basis of the Momentus capital stock it exchanged in the First Merger, except that such holder’s aggregate tax basis in Combined Company Class A common stock will be reduced by the tax basis allocable to any fractional share interest in Combined Company Class A common stock for which cash was received.

•        The tax holding period of Combined Company Class A common stock received in the First Merger by a Momentus stockholder, including any fractional interest for which such holder receives cash, will include the holding period of the Momentus capital stock that it surrendered in exchange therefor in the First Merger.

Cash will be paid in lieu of fractional shares in the exchange of Momentus capital stock for Company Class A common stock. Cash received by a holder of Momentus capital stock in lieu of fractional shares of Company Class A common stock will be treated as if the holder received the fractional shares in the First Merger and then received the cash in a redemption of the fractional shares. The holder should recognize capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the amount of the cash received in lieu of fractional shares and the portion of the holder’s tax basis allocable to the fractional shares unless the redemption is treated as having the effect of a distribution of dividend, in which case the gain will be treated as a dividend to the extent of the current and accumulated earnings and profits of Momentus and SRAC as calculated for U.S. federal income tax purposes.

Tax Consequences if the Mergers Fail to Qualify as a Reorganization or as a tax-free exchange of property for stock under Section 351 of the Code.

If the Mergers fail to qualify as a reorganization or as a tax-free exchange of property for stock under Section 351 of the Code, holders of Momentus capital stock would be treated as if they sold their Momentus capital stock in a fully taxable transaction. In such case, each Momentus stockholder would recognize gain or loss with respect to the disposition of its shares of Momentus capital stock equal to the difference between (i) the fair market value of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock received in the Mergers by such Momentus stockholder and (ii) such stockholder’s tax basis in the Momentus capital stock surrendered. The amount and character of such gain or loss generally will be determined with respect to each block of stock that was separately acquired by a holder of Momentus capital stock. Such capital gain or loss will be long-term capital gain or loss if the Momentus capital stock has been held for more than one year as of the date of the First Merger. A Momentus stockholder’s aggregate tax basis in the Combined Company Class A common stock so received would equal its fair market value, and a Momentus stockholder’s holding period for such Combined Company Class A common stock would begin the day after the First Merger.

Information reporting and backup withholding.

Holders of Momentus capital stock that hold one percent (1%) or more (by vote or value) of the outstanding Momentus capital stock or hold Momentus “securities” (as specially defined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) the aggregate U.S. federal income tax basis of which was at least $1 million, will be required to attach a statement to their federal income tax returns that contains the information listed in Treasury Regulation Section 1.368-3(b). Such statement must include the fair market value of Momentus capital stock or securities surrendered by the holder in the First Merger and the holder’s tax basis in such stock or securities, in both cases determined immediately prior to the First Merger. In addition, Momentus stockholders who are subject to information reporting and who do not provide (generally, on

143

Table of Contents

IRS Form W-9) appropriate information when requested may also be subject to backup withholding at a rate of 24%. Any amount withheld with respect to a holder of Momentus capital stock under such rules is not an additional tax and may be refunded or credited against such holder’s federal income tax liability, provided that the required information is properly furnished in a timely manner to the IRS.

THE PRECEDING DISCUSSION IS INTENDED ONLY AS A SUMMARY OF CERTAIN U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGERS AND DOES NOT PURPORT TO BE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OR DISCUSSION OF ALL OF THE MERGERS’ POTENTIAL TAX EFFECTS. TAX MATTERS CAN BE COMPLICATED AND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGERS TO YOU WILL DEPEND ON THE FACTS OF YOUR OWN SITUATION. YOU ARE URGED TO CONSULT YOUR OWN TAX ADVISORS TO FULLY UNDERSTAND THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE MERGERS TO YOU, INCLUDING THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL AND NON-U.S. INCOME AND OTHER TAX LAWS.

SRAC PROPOSALS

PROPOSAL NO. 1 — THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL

SRAC is asking its stockholders to adopt the Merger Agreement and approve the Business Combination, including the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Mergers. SRAC stockholders should read carefully this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus in its entirety for more detailed information concerning the Merger Agreement, which is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex A.

Please see the subsection titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement” beginning at page 93 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus for additional information and a summary of certain terms of the Merger Agreement and the Business Combination, including the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement and the Mergers. You are urged to read carefully the Merger Agreement in its entirety before voting on this proposal.

Vote Required for Approval

The Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement will be consummated only if the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal are approved at the Special Meeting. Each of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal are cross-conditioned on the approval of each other. The Director Election Proposal, the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and the CEO Option Grant Proposal are conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal. The Governance Proposals are not conditioned on the approval of any other Proposals.

This Business Combination Proposal (and consequently, the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby) will be adopted and approved only if a majority of the votes cast by holders of SRAC’s outstanding shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon vote “FOR” the Business Combination Proposal. Failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting will have no effect on the vote. An abstention from voting will have no effect on the vote with respect to the Business Combination Proposal.

As of the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, the initial stockholders have agreed to vote their founder shares and any public shares they may hold in favor of the Business Combination Proposal. Currently, the initial stockholders and an affiliate of our Sponsor, SRAC Partners, collectively own approximately 21.7% of SRAC’s issued and outstanding common stock, including all of the outstanding founder shares.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

THE SRAC BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE BUSINESS COMBINATION PROPOSAL.

PROPOSAL NO. 2 — THE CHARTER Amendment PROPOSAL

If the Business Combination is to be consummated, SRAC will replace its existing charter with the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter in the form attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex B, which, in the judgment of the SRAC Board, is necessary to adequately address the needs of the Combined Company.

SRAC’s stockholders are asked to consider and vote to approve seven separate proposals in connection with the replacement of the existing charter with the proposed charter. The Charter Amendment Proposal is conditioned on the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal. Accordingly, if the Business Combination Proposal or the Nasdaq Proposal is not approved, the Charter Amendment Proposal will have no effect, even if approved by holders of SRAC common stock.

The following table summarizes the principal proposed changes and the differences between the existing charter and the proposed charter. This summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the proposed charter, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex B. All stockholders are encouraged to read the proposed charter in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms.

 

Existing Charter

 

Proposed Charter

Number of Authorized

The Combined Company will not have Class B common stock. See Section 4.1 of the proposed charter.

No Class Vote on Changes in Authorized Number of Shares of Stock

 

The existing charter contains no specific provision regarding the required vote to change the authorized shares of any class of stock.

 

The proposed charter provides that, with respect to any vote to increase or decrease the number of authorized shares of any class or classes of stock (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) requires the affirmative vote of the holders of all the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of Combined Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, and no vote of the holders of the Class A Common Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor. See Article IV, Section 4 of the proposed charter.

Required Vote to Remove
Directors

 

The existing charter provides that any or all of the directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of SRAC entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. See Article V, Section 4 of the existing charter.

 

The proposed charter provides that subject to the special rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock of the Combined Company, no director may be removed from the Combined Company board except for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of the then-outstanding

shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors voting together as a single class. See Article V, Section 4 of the proposed charter.

Required Vote to Amend the Bylaws

 

The existing charter requires an affirmative vote of either a majority of the board of directors or the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, for the adoption, amendment, alteration or repeal of bylaws. See Article VI of the existing charter.

 

The proposed charter requires an affirmative vote of the Whole Board or the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, for the adoption, amendment, or repeal any provision of the bylaws (in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of stock of required by applicable law or by the proposed charter of the Combined Company); provided, however, that if two-thirds (2/3) of the Whole Board has approved such adoption, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of the Combined Company’s capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class shall be required to adopt, amend or repeal any provision of the Bylaws. See Article VII of the proposed charter.

Required Vote to Amend the Charter

 

The existing charter requires an affirmative vote of holders of the majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of capital stock for the amendment, alteration, change or repeal of any provision in the charter. See Article XI of the existing charter.

 

The proposed charter provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of the proposed charter (including any preferred stock designation) or any provision of law that might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, and subject to Sections 1 and 2 of Article IV, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, will be required to amend or repeal or adopt any provision inconsistent with the Section 2, 3 and 4 of Article IV, or Article V, Article VI, Article VII, Article VIII, Article IX, Article X or Article XI (the “Specified Provisions”); provided, further, that if two-thirds (2/3) of the Whole Board has approved such amendment or repeal of, or any provision inconsistent with, the Specified Provisions, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election

Proposed Charter

       

of directors, voting together as a single class, will be required to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, the Specified Provisions. See Article XI of the proposed charter.

Limitation of Exclusive Forum Provision

 

The existing charter adopts the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”) as the sole and exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation, except for any action as to which the Chancery Court determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of such court and to which jurisdiction such party does not consent, which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of another court or forum, or for which the Chancery Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, or any action arising under the Securities Act as to which the Chancery Court and the federal district court for the District of Delaware shall have concurrent jurisdiction. The existing charter further provides that such exclusive forum provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. See Article XII of the existing charter.

 

The proposed charter modifies the current exclusive forum provision to clarify that the exclusive jurisdiction of the Chancery Court shall not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. In addition, the proposed charter adopts, unless the Combined Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America as the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of claims arising under the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. See Article IX of the proposed charter.

Other Changes, Including Removal of Blank Check Company Provisions

 

The existing charter contains various provisions applicable only to blank check companies.

 

The proposed charter provides for certain additional changes, including, among others, those (i) resulting from the Business Combination, including changing the post-business combination corporate name from “Stable Road Acquisition Corp.” to “Momentus Inc.” and removing certain provisions relating to SRAC’s prior status as a blank check company and SRAC Class B common stock that will no longer apply upon the Closing, or (ii) that are administrative or clarifying in nature, including the deletion of language without substantive effect.

VOTE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL of THE CHARTER amendment PROPOSAL

The approval Proposal No. 2 requires the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of SRAC’s outstanding shares of common stock entitled to vote at the Special Meeting.

THE SRAC BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL NO. 2.

PROPOSALS NO. 3A THROUGH 3G — THE GOVERNANCE PROPOSALS

SRAC’s stockholders are also being asked to vote on a separate proposal with respect to certain governance provisions in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, which are separately being presented in accordance with SEC guidance to give stockholders the opportunity to present their separate views on important corporate governance provisions and which will be voted upon on a non-binding advisory basis. This separate vote is not otherwise required by Delaware law separate and apart from the Charter Amendment Proposal, but pursuant to SEC guidance, SRAC is required to submit these provisions to its stockholders separately for approval. However, the stockholder vote regarding this proposal is advisory in nature, and is not binding on SRAC or SRAC’s board of directors (separate and apart from the approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal). Furthermore, the Business Combination is not conditioned on the separate approval of the advisory charter proposals (separate and apart from approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal). Accordingly, regardless of the outcome of the non-binding advisory vote on these proposals, SRAC intends that the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation will take effect at the Closing (assuming approval of the Charter Amendment Proposal).

The table set forth above in “Proposal No. 2 — The Charter Amendment Proposal” summarizes the principal proposed changes and the differences between the existing charter and the proposed charter. Such summary is qualified by reference to the complete text of the proposed Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex B. All stockholders are encouraged to read the proposed charter in its entirety for a more complete description of its terms.

VOTE REQUIRED FOR APPROVAL OF EACH OF THE GOVERNANCE PROPOSALS

The approval of each of Proposal No. 3A through Proposal No. 3G below requires a majority of the votes cast by holders of outstanding SRAC shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon.

As discussed above, a vote to approve the Governance Proposals is an advisory vote, and therefore, is not binding on SRAC, Momentus, the SRAC Board or Momentus’ board of directors. Accordingly, regardless of the outcome of the non-binding advisory vote, SRAC and Momentus intend that the proposed Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, in the form set forth on Annex B and containing the provisions noted above, will take effect at consummation of the Business Combination, assuming adoption of the Charter Amendment Proposal.

Table of Contents

PROPOSAL NO. 3A — NUMBER OF AUTHORIZED SHARES

The 270,000,000 authorized shares of capital stock in the proposed charter, consisting of 250,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock and 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock, represents an increase from the existing authorization of 111,000,000 shares of capital stock, consisting of 110,000,000 shares of common stock (of which 100,000,000 are authorized shares of Class A common stock and 10,000,000 are authorized shares of Class B common stock) and 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock in the existing charter. Following the filing of the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and immediately prior to Closing of the Business Combination, each share of Class B common stock outstanding immediately prior to the filing of the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter will automatically be converted into one share of Class A common stock of SRAC and concurrently with such conversion, the number of authorized shares of Class B common stock will be reduced to zero.

Although SRAC has a sufficient number of authorized but unissued shares of common stock to complete the Business Combination and the other issuances described in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, the SRAC Board has determined that the increase in the number of shares of authorized Class A common stock is desirable and in the best interests of stockholders because it will enhance the Combined Company’s flexibility to consider and respond to future business needs and opportunities as they arise from time to time following the Closing, without incurring the risk, delay and potential expense incident to obtaining stockholder approval for a particular issuance. Although there is no present intention to issue any shares beyond those contemplated by the Merger Agreement or the PIPE Investment, or otherwise in the ordinary course of business, the additional authorized shares of common stock would be issuable for any proper corporate purpose, including without limitation, stock splits, stock dividends, future acquisitions, investment opportunities, capital raising transactions of equity or convertible debt securities, issuances under current or future equity compensation plans or for other corporate purposes. The Combined Company’s authorized but unissued shares of Class A common stock and preferred stock will be available for future issuances without stockholder approval (except to the extent otherwise required by law or Nasdaq rules) and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions and employee benefit plans.

Since stockholders of the Combined Company will have no preemptive rights, the Combined Company board of directors may issue shares, including the additional authorized shares, at any time without further authorization from such stockholders, except to the extent otherwise required by law or Nasdaq rules. The terms upon which any such securities may be issued will be determined by the Combined Company board of directors.

If approved, the additional shares of Class A common stock will have rights as described in “Description of Securities” beginning on page 245. Incidental effects of the increase in the outstanding number of shares of Class A common stock may include dilution of ownership and voting power of existing holders of Class A common stock. The Combined Company could also use the increased number of shares of Class A common stock for potential strategic transactions, including, among other things, acquisitions, strategic partnerships, joint ventures, restructurings, business combinations and investments, although there are no immediate plans to do so. No assurance can be given that any such transactions will (i) be completed on favorable terms or at all, (ii) enhance stockholder value or (iii) not adversely affect the business or trading price of common stock of the Combined Company.

The determination to increase the number of authorized shares of Class A common stock has been prompted by business and financial considerations and not by the threat of any known or threatened hostile takeover attempt. However, stockholders should be aware that, while not the current intention, approval of this Proposal No. 3A could facilitate future efforts by the Combined Company to deter or prevent changes in control of the Combined Company, including transactions the Combined Company board of directors determines are not in the best interests of the Combined Company or its stockholders. For example, without further stockholder approval, the Combined Company board of directors could sell shares of Class A common stock in a private transaction to purchasers who would oppose a takeover or favor the Combined Company board of directors. At the present time, there is no intention to use any additional shares for anti-takeover purposes.

THE SRAC BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” PROPOSAL NO. 3A.

PROPOSAL NO. 3B — No Class Vote on Changes in Authorized Number of Shares of Stock

At present, the existing charter contains no specific provision regarding the required vote to change the authorized shares of any class of stock. Proposal No. 3B provides that any vote with respect to the increase or decrease of the number of authorized shares of any class or classes of stock (but not below the number of shares then outstanding) requires the affirmative vote of a majority of the holders of all the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote thereon, voting together as a single class, irrespective of the provisions of Section 242(b)(2) of the DGCL, and no vote of the holders of the Class A Common Stock voting separately as a class shall be required therefor.

SRAC believes that vesting the power to authorize changes in the authorized number of shares in the holders of stock entitled to vote in the election of directors will give the Combined Company greater flexibility to use its share capital.

proposal no. 3c — required vote to remove directors

The existing charter provides that any or all of the directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of a majority of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of capital stock of SRAC entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Proposal No. 3C provides that subject to the special rights of the holders of any series of preferred stock of the Combined Company, no director may be removed from the Combined Company board except for cause and only by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of the then-outstanding shares of capital stock of the Combined Company entitled to vote generally in the election of directors voting together as a single class.

SRAC believes that increasing the threshold required to remove a director from the Combined Company’s board will help facilitate corporate governance stability by requiring broad stockholder consensus to effect such corporate governance changes and in the process help protect minority stockholder interests. In addition, any less than a two-thirds vote requirement may weaken the ability of the Combined Company board to preserve and maximize value for all stockholders in an opportunistic and unsolicited takeover attempt.

PROPOSAL NO. 3D — REQUIRED VOTE TO AMEND THE BYLAWS

At present, the existing charter provides that SRAC’s bylaws may only be adopted, amended, altered or repealed with the approval of a majority of the SRAC Board or the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of SRAC’s capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Proposal No. 3D provides that an affirmative vote by either a majority of the Whole Board or by the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, is required to adopt, amend, or repeal the bylaws; provided, however, that if two-thirds (2/3) of the Whole Board has approved such adoption, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of the Combined Company’s capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class shall be required to adopt, amend or repeal any provision of the Bylaws. The ability of the majority of the SRAC Board to amend the bylaws remains unchanged, except that any such amendment now requires a majority of the board of directors, whether or not there exist any vacancies in previously authorized directorships. SRAC believes that supermajority voting requirements are appropriate at this time to protect all stockholders against the potential self-interested actions by one or a few large stockholders. In reaching this conclusion, the SRAC Board was cognizant of the potential for certain stockholders to hold substantial beneficial ownership of our common stock following the Business Combination. SRAC further believes that going forward, a supermajority voting requirement encourages any person seeking control of the Combined Company to negotiate with the Combined Company board of directors to reach terms that are appropriate for all stockholders.

PROPOSAL NO. 3E — REQUIRED VOTE TO AMEND THE CHARTER

At present, the existing charter may only be amended, altered, changed or repealed with the approval of a majority of the SRAC Board and the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all then-outstanding shares of SRAC’s capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Proposal No. 3E provides that, notwithstanding any other provision of the proposed charter (including any preferred stock designation) or any provision of law that might otherwise permit a lesser vote or no vote, but in addition to any vote of the holders of any class or series of the Combined Company’s capital stock required by law or by the proposed charter (including any preferred stock designation), and subject to Sections 1 (authorized capital stock) and (no class vote on changes in authorized number of shares of stock) and 2 (preferred stock) of the proposed charter, the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds (2/3) of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the Combined Company’s capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to adopt, amend, alter or repeal any provision inconsistent with Article XI (amendment of Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation), Sections 2 (preferred stock), 3 (classified board), and 4 (common stock) of Article IV, or Article V (board of directors), Article VI (limited liability; indemnification), Article VII (amendment or repeal of bylaws), Article VIII (special meetings and stockholder nominations), Article IX (exclusive forum for certain lawsuits) or Article X (severability) of the proposed charter (the “Specified Provisions”); provided, however, that if at least two-thirds (2/3) of the members of the Combined Company board of directors then in office have approved such amendment or repeal of, or any provision inconsistent with, the Specified Provisions, then only the affirmative vote of the holders of at least a majority of the voting power of all of the then-outstanding shares of the Combined Company’s capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class, shall be required to amend or repeal, or adopt any provision inconsistent with, the Specified Provisions.

PROPOSAL NO. 3F — LIMITATION ON EXCLUSIVE FORUM PROVISION

The existing charter adopts the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware (the “Chancery Court”) as the sole and exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation, except for any action as to which the Chancery Court determines that there is an indispensable party not subject to the jurisdiction of such court and to which jurisdiction such party does not consent, which is vested in the exclusive jurisdiction of another court or forum, for which the Chancery Court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, or any action arising under the Securities Act as to which the Chancery Court and the federal district court for the District of Delaware shall have exclusive jurisdiction. The existing charter further provides that such exclusive forum provision does not apply to suits brought to enforce any liability or duty created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. The proposed charter seeks to clarify that the current exclusive forum provision adopting the Chancery Court as the exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation is also not applicable to any suits brought to enforce any duty or liability under the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction. In addition, the proposed charter adopts, unless the Combined Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the federal district courts of the United States of America as the sole and exclusive forum for the resolution of any action asserting a claim arising under the Securities Act, or the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder.

These exclusive forum provisions are not intended to apply to actions arising under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act. Delaware courts have held that a Delaware corporation can only use its constitutive documents to bind a plaintiff to a particular forum where the claim involves rights or relationships that were established by or under Delaware’s corporate law. As a result, to the extent our exclusive forum provisions could be construed to apply to actions arising under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, there is uncertainty as to whether a court would enforce the forum selection provisions with respect to such claims, and in any event, our stockholders would not be deemed to have waived compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

The SRAC Board believes that clarifying in the proposed charter that the current exclusive forum provision does not apply to actions asserted to enforce any duty or liability created by the Securities Act or the Exchange Act, or, in each case, the rules or regulations promulgated thereunder, will permit the Combined Company to comply with the jurisdictional limitations imposed by the federal securities laws and to provide clear notice of such limitations to the Combined Company’s stockholders, in conformity with recent SEC guidance regarding such limitations. In addition, the SRAC Board believes that adopting the federal district courts of the United States as the exclusive forum for certain stockholder litigation under the Securities Act is intended to assist the Combined Company in avoiding multiple lawsuits in multiple jurisdictions regarding the same matter. The ability to require such claims to be brought in a single forum will help to assure consistent consideration of the issues, the application of a relatively known body of case law and level of expertise and should promote efficiency and cost-savings in the resolutions of such claims.

PROPOSAL NO. 3G — UPDATE OF OTHER PROVISIONS

Approval of each of the Governance Proposals, assuming the approval of each of the other condition precedent proposals, will result, upon the Closing, in the wholesale replacement of the existing charter with the proposed charter. While certain material changes between the existing charter and the proposed charter have been unbundled into distinct proposals, there are other differences between the existing charter and the proposed charter arising from, among other things, (i) the Closing, including (a) changing the post-business combination corporate name from “Stable Road Acquisition Corp.” to “Momentus Inc.” and (b) removing certain obsolete provisions relating to SRAC’s status as a blank check company, such as its purpose of effecting a business combination and the establishment of a Trust Account and stockholder redemption rights, and SRAC’s Class B Common Stock, such as conversion and voting rights related thereto, that will no longer apply upon the Closing, or (ii) administrative or clarifying revisions, including (a) providing that a majority of the votes cast may increase or decrease (but not below the current number) the number of shares of any class or classes of stock, (b) providing that the business to be transacted at Special Meetings of stockholders shall be limited to the purpose or purposes stated in the notices of such meeting, and (c) the removal of language without substantive effect. The SRAC Board believes that all such changes are necessary to adequately address the needs of the Combined Company after the Business Combination and are appropriate for a public operating company.

These changes will be implemented (subject to the approval of the aforementioned related proposals and Closing) if the SRAC stockholders approve this Proposal No. 3G. We encourage stockholders to carefully review the terms of the proposed Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter, attached hereto as Annex B.

PROPOSAL NO. 4 — THE DIRECTOR ELECTION PROPOSAL

Overview

The SRAC Board is divided into three classes, with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to SRAC’s first annual meeting of stockholders) serving a three-year term. In Proposal No. 4, we are requesting that stockholders approve and adopt a proposal to elect seven directors to the SRAC Board, effective immediately upon the Closing, with each Class I director having a term that expires at the post-combination company’s 2021 annual meeting of stockholders, each Class II director having a term that expires at the post-combination company’s 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, and each Class III director having a term that expires at the post-combination company’s 2023 annual meeting of stockholders, or in each case until their respective successors are duly elected and qualified, or until their earlier resignation, removal or death. For more information on the experience of the proposed management team of the Combined Company, please see the section titled “Management After the Business Combination” commencing on page 227 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

Vote Required for Approval

If a quorum is present, directors are elected by a plurality of the votes cast, in person or by proxy. This means that the seven nominees who receive the most affirmative votes will be elected. Votes marked “FOR” a nominee will be counted in favor of that nominee. Proxies will have full discretion to cast votes for other persons in the event that any nominee is unable to serve. Failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting, abstentions and broker non-votes will have no effect on the vote for the Director Election Proposal. This proposal is conditioned upon the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposals or the Nasdaq Proposal is not approved, this proposal will have no effect, even if approved by SRAC’s stockholders.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

THE SRAC BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE ELECTION OF EACH OF THE SEVEN DIRECTOR NOMINEES TO THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS.

PROPOSAL NO. 5 — APPROVAL OF THE 2020 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN PROPOSAL

In this Proposal No. 5, we are asking our stockholders to approve and adopt the Momentus 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (referred to elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as the “Equity Incentive Plan”). The SRAC Board approved the Equity Incentive Plan on October 7, 2020, subject to stockholder approval at the Special Meeting. If the Equity Incentive Plan is approved by our stockholders, the Equity Incentive Plan will become effective on the day of the Special Meeting (the “Equity Incentive Plan Effective Date”). If the Equity Incentive Plan is not approved by our stockholders, it will not become effective and no equity awards will be granted thereunder. The Equity Incentive Plan is described in more detail below. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Equity Incentive Plan, a copy of which is attached to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as Annex C.

The Equity Incentive Plan is intended to replace the Momentus Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan (the “Amended and Restated 2018 Plan”). The Momentus board of directors terminated the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan, effective as of and contingent upon the Equity Incentive Plan Effective Date. Following the Closing Date, no additional equity awards will be granted under the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan, although all equity awards granted under the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan and the previously terminated Space Apprentices Enterprise Inc. 2018 Stock Plan (collectively the “Prior Plans”) that are outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing Date will be assumed by us and continue to be subject to the terms and conditions as set forth in the agreements evidencing such equity awards and the terms of the Prior Plans.

Reasons to Approve the Equity Incentive Plan

The purpose of the Equity Incentive Plan is to enhance our ability to attract, retain and incentivize employees, independent contractors and directors and promote the success of our business. We consider equity compensation to be a vital element of our compensation program and believe that the ability to grant equity awards at competitive levels is in the best interest of us and our stockholders. The SRAC Board believes the Equity Incentive Plan is critical in enabling us to grant equity awards as an incentive and retention tool as we continue to compete for talent.

Approval of the Equity Incentive Plan by our stockholders is required, among other things, to comply with stock exchange rules requiring stockholder approval of equity compensation plans and allow the grant of incentive stock options under the Equity Incentive Plan.

Description of the Equity Incentive Plan

Set forth below is a summary of the material features of the Equity Incentive Plan. The Equity Incentive Plan is set forth in its entirety as Annex C to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, and all descriptions of the Equity Incentive Plan contained in this Proposal No. 5 are qualified by reference to Annex C.

Purpose

The Equity Incentive Plan is intended to (i) attract and retain the best available personnel to ensure our success and accomplish our goals; (ii) incentivize employees, directors and independent contractors with long-term equity-based compensation to align their interests with our stockholders, and (iii) promote the success of our business.

Types of Equity Awards

The Equity Incentive Plan permits the grant of incentive stock options, nonstatutory stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), and stock bonus awards (all such types of awards, collectively, “equity awards”).

Share Reserve

Number of Shares

Subject to adjustments as set forth in the Equity Incentive Plan, the maximum aggregate number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan will not exceed (i) seven and a half percent (7.5%) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common

158

Table of Contents

stock as of the Closing, plus (ii) the number of shares of Momentus’ common stock subject to awards or issued under the Prior Plans that otherwise would have been returned to the Prior Plans on or after the Equity Incentive Plan Effective Date on account of the expiration, cancellation, forfeiture or repurchase of awards granted thereunder. The shares may be authorized, but unissued, or reacquired Combined Company Class A common stock. Furthermore, subject to adjustments as set forth in the Equity Incentive Plan, in no event will the maximum aggregate number of shares that may be issued under the Equity Incentive Plan pursuant to incentive stock options exceed the number set forth above plus, to the extent allowable under Section 422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, any shares that again become available for issuance pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan.

The number of shares available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan will be increased on March 1, 2021 and thereafter, on the first day of each fiscal year beginning with the 2022 fiscal year, in each case, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) three percent (3%) of the outstanding shares on the last day of the immediately preceding fiscal year and (ii) such number of shares determined by the Combined Company board of directors.

Lapsed Awards

To the extent an equity award expires or is forfeited or becomes unexercisable for any reason without having been exercised in full, or is surrendered pursuant to an exchange program (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan), the unissued shares that were subject thereto will continue to be available under the Equity Incentive Plan for issuance pursuant to future equity awards. In addition, any shares which we retain upon exercise of an equity award in order to satisfy the exercise or purchase price for such equity award or any withholding taxes due with respect to such equity award will be treated as not issued and will continue to be available under the Equity Incentive Plan for issuance pursuant to future equity awards. Shares issued under the Equity Incentive Plan and later forfeited to us due to the failure to vest or repurchased by us at the original purchase price paid to us for the shares (including without limitation upon forfeiture to or repurchase by us in connection with a participant ceasing to be a service provider) will again be available for future grants under the Equity Incentive Plan. To the extent an equity award under the Equity Incentive Plan is paid out in cash rather than shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of shares available for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan.

Assumption or Substitution of Awards by the Company.

The Plan Administrator (as defined below), from time to time, may determine to substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either: (a) assuming such award under the Equity Incentive Plan or (b) granting an award under the Equity Incentive Plan in substitution of such other company’s award. Any awards that are assumed or substituted under the Equity Incentive Plan will not reduce the number of shares authorized for grant under the Equity Incentive Plan or authorized for grant to a participant in any fiscal year.

Eligibility

Employees, directors and independent contractors of us or our affiliates are all eligible to participate in the Equity Incentive Plan. Incentive stock options may only be granted to employees. Following the Closing, the Combined Company is expected to have approximately 82 employees, 30 consultants and five non-employee directors who will be eligible to be granted equity awards under the Equity Incentive Plan.

Administration

The Equity Incentive Plan will be administered by the Combined Company board of directors or a committee thereof, which committee will be constituted to satisfy applicable laws (the “Plan Administrator”). Awards granted to an officer or director of the Combined Company or any other person whose transactions in the Combined Company Class A common stock are subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act (each, an “Insider”) must be approved by two or more “non-employee directors” of the Combined Company board of directors.

159

Table of Contents

Subject to the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan, the Plan Administrator has the authority, in its discretion, to (i) determine the fair market value in accordance with the Equity Incentive Plan; (ii) select the service providers to whom equity awards may be granted under the Equity Incentive Plan; (iii) determine the number of shares to be covered by each equity award granted under the Equity Incentive Plan; (iv) approve forms of equity award agreements for use under the Equity Incentive Plan; (v) determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan, of any equity award granted thereunder; (vi) institute and determine the terms and conditions of an exchange program under the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan (subject to stockholder approval); (vii) construe and interpret the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan and equity awards granted pursuant to the Equity Incentive Plan; (viii) correct any defect, supply any omission or reconcile any inconsistency in the Equity Incentive Plan, any equity award or any equity award agreement; (ix) prescribe, amend and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Equity Incentive Plan; (x) modify or amend each equity award (subject to the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan); (xi) adjust performance goals applicable to a participant with respect to an equity award to take into account changes in applicable laws or in accounting or tax rules, or such other extraordinary events or circumstances; (xii) allow participants to satisfy tax withholding obligations in such manner as prescribed in the Equity Incentive Plan; (xiii) authorize any person to execute on our behalf any instrument required to effect the grant of an equity award previously granted by the Plan Administrator; (xiv) allow a participant to defer the receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of shares that would otherwise be due to such participant under an equity award; and (xv) make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Equity Incentive Plan.

However, to the extent permitted by applicable law and listing requirements, the Combined Company board of directors or a committee thereof may delegate to one or more of our officers who may be (but are not required to be) Insiders, the authority to (a) designate employees who are not Insiders to be recipients of equity awards and determine the number of shares subject to equity awards granted to such designated employees, subject to certain restrictions that are set forth in the Equity Incentive Plan and (b) take any and all actions on behalf of the Combined Company board of directors or a committee thereof other than any actions that affect the amount or form of compensation of Insiders or have material tax, accounting, financial, human resource or legal consequences to us or our affiliates.

Stock Options

Each stock option will be designated in the equity award agreement as either an incentive stock option (which is entitled to potentially favorable tax treatment) or a nonstatutory stock option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate fair market value of the shares with respect to which incentive stock options are exercisable for the first time by the participant during any calendar year exceeds $100,000, such stock options will be treated as nonstatutory stock options. Incentive stock options may only be granted to employees.

The term of each stock option will be stated in the equity award agreement. In the case of an incentive stock option, the term will be 10 years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the equity award agreement. Moreover, in the case of an incentive stock option granted to a participant who owns stock representing more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of our stock or the stock of any of our affiliates, the term of the incentive stock option will be 5 years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the equity award agreement.

The per share exercise price for the shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of a stock option will be determined by the Plan Administrator, subject to the following: in the case of an incentive stock option (i) granted to an employee who, at the time the incentive stock option is granted, owns stock representing more than 10% of the voting power of all classes of our stock or the stock of any of our affiliates, the per share exercise price will be no less than 110% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant; and (ii) granted to any other employee, the per share exercise price will be no less than 100% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. In the case of a nonstatutory stock option, the per share exercise price will be no less than 100% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant. Notwithstanding the foregoing, stock options may be granted with a per share exercise price of less than 100% of the fair market value per share on the date of grant pursuant to a corporate reorganization, liquidation, etc., described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code.

160

Table of Contents

At the time a stock option is granted, the Plan Administrator will fix the period within which the stock option may be exercised and will determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the stock option may be exercised. The Plan Administrator will also determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising a stock option, including the method of payment. In the case of an incentive stock option, the Plan Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant.

If a participant ceases to be a service provider other than for “Cause” (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan), the participant may exercise his or her stock option within such period of time as is specified in the equity award agreement to the extent that the stock option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such stock option). In the absence of a specified time in the equity award agreement, to the extent vested as of a participant’s termination, the stock option will remain exercisable for 12 months following a termination for death or disability, and three months following a termination for any other reason. Any outstanding stock option (including any vested portion thereof) held by a participant will immediately terminate in its entirety upon the participant being first notified of his or her termination for Cause and the participant will be prohibited from exercising his or her stock option from and after the date of such termination.

Stock Appreciation Rights (SARs)

The Plan Administrator will determine the terms and conditions of each SAR, provided that the exercise price for each SAR will be no less than 100% of the fair market value of the underlying shares of Combined Company Class A common stock on the date of grant. Upon exercise of a SAR, a participant will receive payment from us in an amount determined by multiplying the difference between the fair market value of a share on the date of exercise over the exercise price by the number of shares with respect to which the SAR is exercised. SARs may be paid in cash, in shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof, as determined by the Plan Administrator. SARs are exercisable at the times and on the terms established by the Plan Administrator.

Restricted Stock and RSUs

Restricted stock awards are grants of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock that are subject to various restrictions, including restrictions on transferability and forfeiture provisions. Shares of restricted stock will vest and the restrictions on such shares will lapse in accordance with terms and conditions established by the Plan Administrator. Each RSU is a bookkeeping entry representing an amount equal to the fair market value of one share of Combined Company Class A common stock. Upon meeting the applicable vesting criteria, the participant will be entitled to receive a payout for his or her earned RSUs as determined by the Plan Administrator in the form of cash, shares, or a combination of both.

In determining whether restricted stock or RSUs should be granted, and/or the vesting schedule for such an equity award, the Plan Administrator may impose whatever conditions on vesting as it determines to be appropriate.

During the period of restriction, participants holding restricted stock may exercise full voting rights and will be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid, in each case with respect to such shares unless the Plan Administrator determines otherwise. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in shares, the shares will be subject to the same restrictions, including without limitation restrictions on transferability and forfeitability, as the shares of restricted stock with respect to which they were paid. During the period of restriction, such dividends or other distributions shall be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the restricted stock with respect to which the dividends accrue and shall not be paid or distributed unless and until such related Shares have vested and been earned.

During the vesting period, participants holding RSUs will hold no voting rights by virtue of such RSUs. The Plan Administrator may, in its sole discretion, award dividend equivalents in connection with the grant of RSUs that may be settled in cash, in shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof. Absent a contrary provision in an award agreement, such dividend equivalents will be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the RSUs with respect to which the dividends accrue and shall not be paid or settled unless and until the related RSUs have vested and been earned.

161

Table of Contents

Stock Bonus Awards

A stock bonus award is an award of shares to an eligible person without a purchase price that is not subject to any restrictions. The Plan Administrator will determine the number of shares to be awarded to the participant under a stock bonus award. A stock bonus award may be paid in cash, whole shares, or a combination thereof, based on the fair market value of the shares subject to the stock bonus award on the date of payment, as determined in the sole discretion of the Plan Administrator.

Performance Awards

The Plan Administrator may grant options, SARs, restricted stock and RSUs that are subject to the satisfaction of specified performance criteria. The Plan Administrator determines the terms surrounding performance awards, including the required levels of performance with respect to specified business criteria (including any adjustment(s) thereto that will be applied in determining the achievement of such performance criteria), the corresponding amounts payable upon achievement of such levels of performance, and the termination and forfeiture provisions; provided that all performance criteria must be determined when the achievement of such criteria remains substantially uncertain.

The Plan Administrator in its discretion may make performance goals applicable to a participant with respect to an equity award. In the Plan Administrator’s discretion, one or more of the following performance goals may apply: (1) sales or non-sales revenue; (2) return on revenues; (3) operating income; (4) income or earnings including operating income; (5) income or earnings before or after taxes, interest, depreciation and/or amortization; (6) income or earnings from continuing operations; (7) net income; (8) pre-tax income or after-tax income; (9) net income excluding amortization of intangible assets, depreciation and impairment of goodwill and intangible assets and/or excluding charges attributable to the adoption of new accounting pronouncements; (10) raising of financing or fundraising; (11) project financing; (12) revenue backlog; (13) gross margin; (14) operating margin or profit margin; (15) capital expenditures, cost targets, reductions and savings and expense management; (16) return on assets, return on investment, return on capital, or return on stockholder equity; (17) cash flow, free cash flow, cash flow return on investment, net cash provided by operations, or cash flow in excess of cost of capital; (18) performance warranty and/or guarantee claims; (19) stock price or total stockholder return; (20) earnings or book value per share; (21) economic value created; (22) pre-tax profit or after-tax profit; (23) strategic business criteria; (24) objective goals relating to divestitures, joint ventures, mergers, acquisitions and similar transactions; (25) objective goals relating to staff management, results from staff attitude and/or opinion surveys, staff satisfaction scores, staff safety, staff accident and/or injury rates, compliance, headcount, performance management, completion of critical staff training initiatives; (26) objective goals relating to projects; and (27) enterprise resource planning. Equity awards issued to participants may take into account other criteria (including subjective criteria).

Performance goals may differ from participant to participant, performance period to performance period and from equity award to equity award. Any criteria used may be measured, as applicable, (i) in absolute terms, (ii) in relative terms (including, but not limited to, any increase (or decrease) over the passage of time and/or any measurement against other companies or financial or business or stock index metrics particular to us), (iii) on a per share and/or share per capita basis, (iv) against the performance of us as a whole or against any of our affiliate(s), or a particular segment(s), a business unit(s) or a product(s) of us or individual project company, (v) on a pre-tax or after-tax basis, (vi) on a GAAP or non-GAAP basis, and/or (vii) using an actual foreign exchange rate or on a foreign exchange neutral basis.

Outside Director Limitations

Equity awards granted during a single fiscal year under the Equity Incentive Plan or otherwise, taken together with any cash fees paid during such fiscal year for services on the Combined Company board of directors, will not exceed (i) $1,000,000 in total value for any outside director serving as the lead director of the Combined Company board of directors or chair of the Combined Company board of directors (including with respect to the first year of service) and (ii) $500,000 in total value for any other outside director, except with respect to the first year of service in which case any equity awards granted and cash fees paid will not exceed $1,000,000 in total value (calculating the value of any such equity awards, in each case, based on the grant date fair value of such equity awards for financial reporting purposes). Such applicable limit will include the value of any equity awards that are received in lieu of all or a portion of any annual committee cash retainers or other similar cash-based payments. Equity awards granted to an individual while he or she was serving in the capacity as an employee or while he or she was an independent contractor but not an outside director will not count for purposes of these limits.

162

Table of Contents

Leaves of Absence/Transfer Between Locations

The Plan Administrator has the discretion to determine at any time whether and to what extent the vesting of equity awards will be suspended during any leave of absence; provided that in the absence of such determination, vesting of equity awards will continue during any paid leave and will be suspended during any unpaid leave (unless otherwise required by applicable laws). A participant will not cease to be an employee in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by the participant’s employer or (ii) transfers between our locations or between us and any of our affiliates. If an employee holds an incentive stock option and such leave exceeds three months then, for purposes of incentive stock option status only, such employee’s service as an employee will be deemed terminated on the first day following such three month period and the incentive stock option will thereafter automatically be treated for tax purposes as a nonstatutory stock option in accordance with applicable laws, unless reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute, or unless provided otherwise pursuant to a written company policy.

Nontransferability of Equity Awards

Unless determined otherwise by the Plan Administrator, an equity award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the participant, only by the participant. If the Plan Administrator makes an equity award transferable, such equity award will contain such additional terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator deems appropriate provided, however, that in no event may any equity award be transferred for consideration to a third-party financial institution.

Clawback/Recovery

The Plan Administrator may specify in an equity award agreement that the participant’s rights, payments, and/or benefits with respect to an equity award will be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, and/or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any applicable vesting, performance or other conditions and restrictions of an equity award. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary under the Equity Incentive Plan, an equity award granted under the Equity Incentive Plan will be subject to any clawback policy as may be established and/or amended from time to time by us. The Plan Administrator may require a participant to forfeit or return to and/or reimburse us for all or a portion of the equity award and/or shares issued under the equity award, any amounts paid under the equity award, and any payments or proceeds paid or provided upon disposition of the shares issued under the equity award, pursuant to the terms of such company policy or as necessary or appropriate to comply with applicable laws.

Adjustment

In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, consolidation, recapitalization or reclassification of the shares, subdivision of the shares, a rights offering, a reorganization, merger, spin-off, split-up, repurchase, or exchange of the Combined Company Class A common stock or other securities of us or other significant corporate transaction, or other change affecting the Combined Company Class A common stock occurs, the Plan Administrator, in order to prevent dilution, diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Equity Incentive Plan, will, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust the number, kind and class of securities that may be delivered under the Equity Incentive Plan and/or the number, class, kind and price of securities covered by each outstanding equity award; provided that all such adjustments will be made in a manner that does not result in taxation under Section 409A of the Code (“Section 409A”).

Dissolution or Liquidation

In the event of the proposed winding up, dissolution or liquidation of us, the Plan Administrator will notify each participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. To the extent it has not been previously exercised or settled, an equity award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

Corporate Transaction

In the event of (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of our assets, (ii) a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization or business combination transaction of us with or into another corporation, entity or person, (iii) the

163

Table of Contents

consummation of a transaction, or series of related transactions, in which any person becomes the beneficial owner directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of our then outstanding capital stock, or (iv) a “Change in Control” (as defined in the Equity Incentive Plan) each outstanding equity award (vested or unvested) will be treated as the Plan Administrator determines, which determination may provide for one or more of the following: (a) the continuation of such outstanding equity awards (if we are the surviving corporation); (b) the assumption of such outstanding equity awards by the surviving corporation or its parent; (c) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of new stock options or other equity awards for such equity awards; (d) the cancellation of such equity awards in exchange for a payment to the participants equal to the excess of (1) the fair market value of the shares subject to such equity awards as of the closing date of such corporate transaction over (2) the exercise price or purchase price paid or to be paid (if any) for the shares subject to the equity awards (which payment may be subject to the same conditions that apply to the consideration that will be paid to holders of shares in connection with the transaction, subject to applicable law); (e) the full or partial acceleration of exercisability or vesting and accelerated expiration of an outstanding equity award and lapse of our right to repurchase or re-acquire shares acquired under an equity award or lapse of forfeiture rights with respect to shares acquired under an equity award; (f) the opportunity for participants to exercise their stock options prior to the occurrence of the corporate transaction and the termination (for no consideration) upon the consummation of such corporate transaction of any stock options not exercised prior thereto or (g) the cancellation of outstanding equity awards in exchange for no consideration.

Change in Control

An equity award may be subject to additional acceleration of vesting and exercisability upon or after a Change in Control as may be provided in the equity award agreement for such equity award or as may be provided in any other written agreement between us or any of our affiliates and the participant, but in the absence of such provision, no such acceleration will occur.

Amendment, Termination and Duration of the Equity Incentive Plan

If approved by our stockholders, the Equity Incentive Plan will continue in effect for a term of 10 years measured from the date the plan was approved by SRAC’s board of directors, unless terminated earlier under the terms of the Equity Incentive Plan. The Plan Administrator may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Equity Incentive Plan.

U.S. Federal Tax Aspects

A participant who receives a stock option or SAR will not have taxable income upon the grant of the stock option or SAR. For nonstatutory stock options and SARs, the participant will recognize ordinary income upon exercise in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value of the shares over the exercise price — the appreciation value — on the date of exercise. Any additional gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares generally will be long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on whether the shares are held for more than one year.

The purchase of shares upon exercise of an incentive stock option will not result in any taxable income to the participant, except for purposes of the alternative minimum tax. Gain or loss recognized by the participant on a later sale or other disposition of the shares will be capital gain or loss and/or ordinary income depending upon whether the participant holds the shares transferred upon exercise for a specified period. If the shares are held for the specified period, any gain generally will be taxed at long-term capital-gain rates. If the shares are not held for the specified period, generally any gain up to the excess of the fair market value of the shares on the date of exercise over the exercise price will be treated as ordinary income. Any additional gain generally will be taxable at long-term or short-term capital-gain rates, depending on whether the participant held the shares for more than one year after the exercise date.

A participant who receives restricted stock will not have taxable income until vesting unless the participant timely files an election under Section 83(b) of the Code to be taxed at the time of grant. The participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of vesting less the amount paid for such shares (if any) if no such election is made. Any additional gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares generally will be long-term or short-term capital gain or loss, depending on whether the shares are held for more than one year. If a participant timely files a Section 83(b) election, the participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares at the time of purchase or grant less the amount paid for such shares (if any).

A participant who receives RSUs will not have taxable income upon grant of the equity award; instead the participant will be taxed upon settlement of the equity award. The participant will recognize ordinary income equal to the fair market value of the shares or the amount of cash received by the participant. In addition, Section 409A imposes certain restrictions on deferred compensation arrangements. Equity awards that are treated as deferred compensation under Section 409A are intended to meet the requirements of this section of the Code.

Prior to the delivery of any shares or cash pursuant to an equity award (or exercise thereof) or prior to any time the equity award or shares are subject to taxation or other tax-related items, we and/or the participant’s employer will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a participant to remit to us, an amount sufficient to satisfy any tax-related items or other items that are required to be withheld or deducted or otherwise applicable with respect to such equity award.

The Plan Administrator may, at its discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, permit a participant to satisfy such withholding or deduction obligations or any other tax-related items, in whole or in part by (without limitation) paying cash, electing to have us withhold otherwise deliverable cash or shares, or delivering to us already-owned shares; provided that, unless the Plan Administrator permits otherwise, any proceeds derived from a cashless exercise must be an approved broker-assisted cashless exercise or the cash or shares withheld or delivered must be limited to avoid financial accounting charges under applicable accounting guidance or shares must have been previously held for the minimum duration required to avoid financial accounting charges under applicable accounting guidance. The fair market value of the shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined based on such methodology that we deem to be reasonable and in accordance with applicable laws.

We will be entitled to a tax deduction in connection with an equity award under the Equity Incentive Plan only in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by the participant and at the time the participant recognizes the income. Section 162(m) of the Code places a limit of $1 million on the amount of compensation that we may deduct as a business expense in any year with respect to certain of our most highly paid executive officers. While the Plan Administrator considers the deductibility of compensation as one factor in determining executive compensation, the Plan Administrator retains the discretion to award and pay compensation that is not deductible as it believes that it is in the best interests of our stockholders to maintain flexibility in our approach to executive compensation and to structure a program that we consider to be the most effective in attracting, motivating and retaining key employees.

New Plan Benefits

The Equity Incentive Plan does not provide for set benefits or amounts of awards and we have not approved any equity awards that are conditioned on stockholder approval of the Equity Incentive Plan. However, as discussed in further detail in the section titled “Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy” below, each of the post-Business Combination non-employee directors is entitled to restricted stock unit grants under the Equity Incentive Plan, contingent upon, the Closing, which will be granted following the effectiveness of the registration of the shares reserved under the Equity Incentive Plan on a registration statement on Form S-8, as described below. The following table summarizes (i) the restricted stock unit grants that our current non-employee directors as a group will receive in connection with the Business Combination and (ii) certain equity awards promised in offer letters with employees, which have not been granted and are subject to approval of the Combined Company Board. All other future awards to directors, executive officers, employees and consultants under the Equity Incentive Plan are discretionary and cannot be determined at this time.

PROPOSAL NO. 6 — APPROVAL OF THE 2020 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN PROPOSAL

In this Proposal No. 6, we are asking our stockholders to approve and adopt the Momentus 2020 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (referred to elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus as the “Employee Stock Purchase Plan”). The SRAC Board approved the Employee Stock Purchase Plan on October 7, 2020, subject to stockholder approval at the Special Meeting. If the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is approved by our stockholders, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan will become effective on the day of the Special Meeting. If the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is not approved by our stockholders, it will not become effective and no shares will be granted thereunder. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan is described in more detail below. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex D.

Reasons to Approve the Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan provides eligible employees with an opportunity to purchase shares of Combined Company Class A common stock at a discount through accumulated payroll deductions and to benefit from stock price appreciation, thus enhancing the alignment of employee and stockholder interests. The SRAC Board believes the Employee Stock Purchase Plan will be an important incentive and retention tool as we continue to compete for talent.

Approval of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan by our stockholders is required, among other things, to comply with stock exchange rules requiring stockholder approval of equity compensation plans and for the Employee Stock Purchase Plan to qualify as an “employee stock purchase plan” under Section 423 of the Code.

Description of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Purpose

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan provides a means by which eligible employees and/or eligible service providers of either our company or designated related corporations and affiliates (“Designated Companies”) may be given an opportunity to purchase shares of Combined Company Class A common stock. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan permits us to grant a series of purchase rights to eligible employees and eligible service providers. By means of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, we seek to (i) retain and assist our related corporations and affiliates in retaining the services of such eligible employees and eligible service providers, (ii) secure and retain the services of new eligible employees and eligible service providers and (iii) provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for our success and that of our related corporations and affiliates.

Qualified and Non-Qualified Offerings Permitted

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan includes two components: a “423 Component” and a “Non-423 Component.” We intend the 423 Component to qualify as an Employee Stock Purchase Plan pursuant to Section 423 of the Code. The provisions of the 423 Component will be construed in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, including without limitation, to extend and limit Employee Stock Purchase Plan participation in a uniform and non-discriminating basis. In addition, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan authorizes grants of purchase rights under the Non-423 Component that do not meet the requirements of an Employee Stock Purchase Plan under Section 423 of the Code. Except as otherwise provided in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan or determined by the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator (as defined below), the Non-423 Component will be operated and administered in the same manner as the 423 Component. Eligible employees will be able to participate in the 423 Component or Non-423 Component of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Eligible service providers (who may or may not be eligible employees) will only be able to participate in the Non-423 Component of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Administration

The Combined Company board of directors has the power to delegate administration of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan to a committee composed of not fewer than one member of the Combined Company board of directors. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan will be administered by the Combined Company board of directors or a committee thereof (the “Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator”). The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator has the final power to construe and interpret both the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the rights granted under it. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator has the power, subject to the provisions of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, to determine when and how rights to purchase Combined Company Class A common stock will be granted, the

167

Table of Contents

provisions of each offering of such rights (which need not be identical), and whether any employee or other service provider will be eligible to participate in the 423 Component or Non-423 Component of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Whether or not the Combined Company board of directors has delegated administration of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan to a committee, the Combined Company board of directors will have the final power to determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise in the administration of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Stock Subject to Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Subject to adjustments as provided in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, the maximum number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock that may be issued under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan will not exceed two percent (2%) of the total number of issued and outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock as of immediately following the Closing (after giving effect to the SRAC Share Redemptions, if any), plus the number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock that are automatically added on March 1, 2021 and thereafter, on the first day of each fiscal year beginning with the 2022 fiscal year and ending on (and including) the first day of the 2030 fiscal year in an amount, in each case, in equal to the lesser of (i) half a percent (0.5%) of the total number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock outstanding on the last day of the calendar month prior to the date of such automatic increase, and (ii) the number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock initially reserved for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, unless the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator determines prior to the first day of any fiscal year that there will be no increase in the share reserve for such fiscal year or that the increase in the share reserve for such fiscal year will be a lesser number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock. If any purchase right granted under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan terminates without having been exercised in full, the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock not purchased under such purchase right will again become available for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Offerings

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan is implemented by offerings of rights to all eligible employees and eligible service providers from time to time. Offerings may be comprised of one or more purchase periods. The maximum length for an offering under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is 27 months. The provisions of separate offerings need not be identical. When a participant elects to join an offering, he or she is granted a purchase right to acquire shares of Combined Company Class A common stock on each purchase date within the offering, each corresponding to the end of a purchase period within such offering. On each purchase date, all payroll deductions collected from the participant during such purchase period are automatically applied to the purchase of Combined Company Class A common stock, subject to certain limitations.

Eligibility

Purchase rights may be granted only to our employees, employees of designated related corporations or, solely with respect to the Non-423 Component, employees of an affiliate (other than a designated related corporation) or eligible service providers. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may provide that employees will not be eligible to be granted purchase rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan if, on the offering date, the employee (i) has not completed at least 2 years of service since the employee’s last hire date (or such lesser period as the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may determine), (ii) customarily works not more than 20 hours per week (or such lesser period as the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may determine), (iii) customarily works not more than 5 months per calendar year (or such lesser period as the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may determine), (iv) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of the Code, or (v) has not satisfied such other criteria as the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may determine consistent with Section 423 of the Code. Unless otherwise determined by the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator for any offering, an employee will not be eligible to be granted purchase rights unless, on the offering date, the employee customarily works more than 20 hours per week and more than 5 months per calendar year.

No employee will be eligible for the grant of any purchase rights if, immediately thereafter, such employee owns stock possessing 5% or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of our stock or the stock of any related corporation. An eligible employee may be granted purchase rights only if such purchase rights, together with any other rights granted under all our and any related corporations’ employee stock purchase plans, do not permit such eligible employee’s rights to purchase stock to accrue in excess of $25,000 worth of stock in any calendar year.

168

Table of Contents

Following the Closing, the Combined Company is expected to have approximately 82 employees who will be eligible to participate in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Participation in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan

On each offering date, each eligible employee or eligible service provider, pursuant to an offering made under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, will be granted a purchase right to purchase up to that number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock purchasable either with a percentage or with a maximum dollar amount, as designated by the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator; provided however, that in the case of eligible employees, such percentage or maximum dollar amount will in either case not exceed 15% of such employee’s earnings during the period that begins on the offering date (or such later date as the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator determines for a particular offering) and ends on the date stated in the offering, which date will be no later than the end of the offering, unless otherwise provided for in an offering.

Purchase Price

The purchase price of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock acquired pursuant to purchase rights will be not less than the lesser of (i) 85% of the fair market value of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock on the offering date; or (ii) 85% of the fair market value of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock on the applicable purchase date (i.e., the last day of the applicable purchase period).

Payment of Purchase Price; Payroll Deductions

The purchase price of the shares is accumulated by payroll deductions over the offering. To the extent permitted in the offering document, a participant may increase, reduce or terminate his or her payroll deductions. All payroll deductions made on behalf of a participant are credited to his or her account under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and deposited with our general funds. To the extent permitted in the offering document, a participant may make additional payments into such account. If required under applicable laws or regulations or if specifically provided in the offering, in addition to or instead of making contributions by payroll deductions, a participant may make contributions through a payment by cash, check, or wire transfer prior to a purchase date, in a manner we direct.

Purchase of Stock

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator will establish one or more purchase dates during an offering on which purchase rights granted for that offering will be exercised and shares of Combined Company Class A common stock will be purchased in accordance with such offering. In connection with each offering, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may specify a maximum number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock that may be purchased by any participant or all participants. If the aggregate purchase of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock issuable on exercise of purchase rights granted under the offering would exceed any such maximum aggregate number, then, in the absence of any Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator action otherwise, a pro rata (based on each participant’s accumulated contributions) allocation of the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock available will be made in as nearly a uniform manner as will be practicable and equitable.

Withdrawal

During an offering, a participant may cease making contributions and withdraw from the offering by delivering to us or any third party designated by us a company provided withdrawal form. We may impose a deadline before a purchase date for withdrawing. On such withdrawal, such participant’s purchase right in that offering will immediately terminate and we will distribute as soon as practicable to such participant all of his or her accumulated but unused contributions without interest and such participant’s purchase right in that offering will then terminate. A participant’s withdrawal from that offering will have no effect on his or her eligibility to participate in any other offerings under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, but such participant will be required to deliver a new enrollment form to participate in subsequent offerings.

169

Table of Contents

Termination of Eligibility

Purchase rights granted pursuant to any offering under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan will terminate immediately if the participant either (i) is no longer an eligible employee or eligible service provider for any reason or for no reason, or (ii) is otherwise no longer eligible to participate. We will have the exclusive discretion to determine when a participant is no longer actively providing services and the date of the termination of employment or service for purposes of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. As soon as practicable, we will distribute to such individual all of his or her accumulated but unused contributions without interest.

Leave of Absence.

A participant will not be deemed to have terminated employment or failed to remain continuously employed by us or a Designated Company in the case of sick leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by us; provided that such leave is for a period of not more than three months or reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute. We will have sole discretion to determine whether a participant has terminated employment and the effective date on which the participant terminated employment, regardless of any notice period or garden leave required under local law.

Employment Transfers.

Unless otherwise determined by the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator, a participant whose employment transfers or whose employment terminates with an immediate rehire (with no break in service) by or between us and a Designated Company or between Designated Companies will not be treated as having terminated employment for purposes of participating in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan or an offering; however, if a participant transfers from an offering under the 423 Component to an offering under the Non-423 Component, the exercise of the participant’s purchase right will be qualified under the 423 Component only to the extent such exercise complies with Section 423 of the Code. If a participant transfers from an offering under the Non-423 Component to an offering under the 423 Component, the exercise of the purchase right will remain non-qualified under the Non-423 Component. In the event that a participant’s purchase right is terminated under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, we will distribute as soon as practicable to such individual all of his or her accumulated but unused contributions.

Restrictions on Transfer

During a participant’s lifetime, purchase rights will be exercisable only by such participant. Purchase rights are not transferable by a participant, except by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or, if we so permit, by a beneficiary designation.

Exercise of Purchase Rights

On each purchase date, each participant’s accumulated contributions will be applied to the purchase of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock, up to the maximum number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock permitted by the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the applicable offering, at the purchase price specified in the offering. Unless otherwise specified in the offering, no fractional shares will be issued and, if any amount of accumulated contributions remains in a participant’s account after the purchase of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock on the final purchase date in an offering, such remaining amount will roll over to the next offering.

No purchase rights may be exercised to any extent unless and until the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock to be issued on such exercise under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan are covered by an effective registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act, and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is in material compliance with all applicable U.S. federal and state, foreign and other securities, exchange control, and other laws applicable to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. If, on the purchase date, as delayed to the maximum extent permissible, the shares of Combined Company Class A common stock are not registered and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is not in material compliance with all applicable laws or regulations, as determined by us in our sole discretion, no purchase rights will be exercised and all accumulated but unused contributions will be distributed as soon as practicable to the participants without interest.

170

Table of Contents

Capitalization Adjustments

In the event of a capitalization adjustment, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator will appropriately and proportionately adjust: (i) the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, (ii) the class(es) and maximum number of securities by which the share reserve is to increase automatically each year pursuant to the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, (iii) the class(es) and number of securities subject to, and the purchase price applicable to outstanding offerings and purchase rights, and (iv) the class(es) and number of securities that are the subject of the purchase limits under each ongoing offering.

Dissolution or Liquidation

In the event of our company’s dissolution or liquidation, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator will shorten any offering then in progress by setting a new purchase date prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator will notify each participant in writing, prior to the new purchase date that the purchase date for the participant’s purchase rights has been changed to the new purchase date and that such purchase rights will be automatically exercised on the new purchase date, unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the offering.

Effect of Certain Corporate Transactions

In the event of:

•        a transfer of all or substantially all of our company’s assets;

•        a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization or business combination transaction of our company with or into another corporation, entity or person; or

•        the consummation of a transaction, or series of related transactions, in which any person becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of our then outstanding capital stock;

then: (i) any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or the surviving or acquiring corporation’s parent company) may assume or continue outstanding purchase rights or may substitute similar rights for outstanding purchase rights, or (ii) if any surviving or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) does not assume or continue such purchase rights or does not substitute similar rights for such purchase rights, then the participants’ accumulated contributions will be used to purchase shares of Combined Company Class A common stock prior to the corporate transaction under the outstanding purchase rights, and the purchase rights will terminate immediately after such purchase. The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator will notify each participant in writing, prior to the new purchase date that the purchase date for the participant’s purchase rights has been changed to the new purchase date and that such purchase rights will be automatically exercised on the new purchase date unless prior to such date the participant has withdrawn from the offering.

Spin-Off

In the event of a spin-off or similar transaction involving us, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may take actions deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with an ongoing offering and subject to compliance with applicable laws (including the assumption of purchase rights under an ongoing offering by the spun-off company, or shortening an offering and scheduling a new purchase date prior to the closing of such transaction). In the absence of any such action by the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator, a participant in an ongoing offering whose employer ceases to qualify as a related corporation as of the closing of a spin-off or similar transaction will be treated in the same manner as if the participant had terminated employment.

Amendment, Termination or Suspension of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may amend the Employee Stock Purchase Plan at any time in any respect the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator deems necessary or advisable. However, except with respect to capitalization adjustments described above, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan for which stockholder approval is required by applicable laws, regulations or listing requirements, including any amendment that either (i) increases the number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock available for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, (ii) expands the class of

171

Table of Contents

individuals eligible to become participants and receive purchase rights, (iii) materially increases the benefits accruing to participants under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan or reduces the price at which shares of Combined Company Class A common stock may be purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, (iv) extends the term of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, or (v) expands the types of awards available for issuance under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, but in each case only to the extent stockholder approval is required by applicable laws.

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Administrator may suspend or terminate the Employee Stock Purchase Plan at any time. No purchase rights may be granted under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan while the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

Any benefits, privileges, entitlements, and obligations under any outstanding purchase rights granted before an amendment, suspension, or termination of the Employee Stock Purchase Plan will not be materially impaired by any such amendment, suspension, or termination except (i) with the consent of the person to whom such purchase rights were granted, (ii) as necessary to comply with any laws, listing requirements, or governmental regulations, or (iii) as necessary to obtain or maintain any special tax, listing, or regulatory treatment.

Federal Income Tax Information

The following generally summarizes the U.S. federal income tax consequences that will arise with respect to participation in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and with respect to the sale of Combined Company Class A common stock acquired under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, but it is not a detailed or complete description of all U.S. federal tax laws or regulations that may apply, and does not address any local, state or foreign laws. Therefore, no one should rely on this summary for individual tax compliance, planning or decisions. Participants in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan should consult their own professional tax advisors concerning tax aspects of rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Nothing in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus is written or intended to be used, and cannot be used, for the purposes of avoiding taxpayer penalties. The discussion below concerning tax deductions that may become available to us under U.S. federal tax law is not intended to imply that we will necessarily obtain a tax benefit or asset from those deductions. Taxation of equity-based payments in other countries is complex, does not generally correspond to federal tax laws, and is not covered by the summary below. This summary also assumes that the 423 Component complies with Code Section 423 and is based on the tax laws in effect as of the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. Changes to these laws could alter the tax consequences described below.

As described above, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan has a 423 Component and a Non-423 Component. The tax consequences for a U.S. taxpayer will depend on whether he or she participates in the 423 Component or the Non-423 Component.

423 Component

Rights granted under the 423 Component are intended to qualify for favorable federal income tax treatment associated with rights granted under an employee stock purchase plan which qualifies under the provisions of Section 423 of the Code. Under this component, a participant will be taxed on amounts withheld for the purchase of Combined Company Class A common stock as if such amounts are actually received. Otherwise, no income will be taxable to a participant as a result of the granting or exercise of a purchase right until disposition of the acquired shares. The taxation upon disposition will depend upon the holding period of the acquired shares:

•        If the stock is disposed of more than 2 years after the beginning of the offering and more than one year after the stock is transferred to the participant, then the lesser of (i) the excess of the fair market value of the stock at the time of such disposition over the purchase price, or (ii) the excess of the fair market value of the stock as of the beginning of the offering over the purchase price (determined as of the beginning of the offering) will be treated as ordinary income. Any further gain or any loss will be taxed as a long-term capital gain or loss.

•        If the stock is sold or disposed of before the expiration of either of the holding periods described above, then the excess of the fair market value of the stock on the purchase date over the purchase price will be treated as ordinary income at the time of such disposition. The balance of any gain will be treated as capital gain. Even if the stock is later disposed of for less than its fair market value on the purchase date, the same amount of ordinary income is attributed to the participant, and a capital loss is recognized equal to the difference between the sales price and the fair market value of the stock on such purchase date.

172

Table of Contents

Any compensation income that a participant receives upon sale of the Combined Company Class A common stock that he or she purchased under the 423 Component is not subject to withholding for income, Medicare or social security taxes. Any capital gain or loss will be short-term or long-term, depending on how long the stock has been held.

Non-423 Component

Rights granted under the Non-423 Component are not intended to qualify for favorable federal income tax treatment associated with rights granted under an employee stock purchase plan which qualifies under the provisions of Section 423 of the Code. Under this component, a participant will have compensation income equal to the value of the Combined Company Class A common stock on the day he or she purchases the Combined Company Class A common stock, less the purchase price. When a participant sells the Combined Company Class A common stock purchased under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, he or she also will have a capital gain or loss equal to the difference between the sales proceeds and the value of the Combined Company Class A common stock on the day he or she purchased the stock. Any capital gain or loss will be short-term or long-term, depending on how long the stock has been held.

Any compensation income that a participant receives upon sale of the Combined Company Class A common stock that he or she purchased under the Non-423 Component is subject to withholding for income, Medicare and social security taxes, as applicable.

Tax Consequences to Combined Company

There are no federal income tax consequences to us by reason of the grant or exercise of rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. We are entitled to a deduction to the extent amounts are taxed as ordinary income to a participant (subject to the requirement of reasonableness and the satisfaction of tax reporting obligations).

New Plan Benefits

Participation in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan is voluntary and each eligible employee will make his or her own decision whether and to what extent to participate in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. It is therefore not possible to determine the benefits or amounts that will be received in the future by individual employees or groups of employees under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

Equity Compensation Plan Information

As of December 31, 2019, we did not maintain any equity compensation plans.

Vote Required

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal will be adopted and approved only if a majority of the votes cast by holders of outstanding SRAC shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon vote “FOR” the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal.

The Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal is conditioned upon the approval of the Business Combination Proposal, the Charter Amendment Proposal and the Nasdaq Proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 7 — APPROVAL OF THE CEO OPTION GRANT PROPOSAL

In this Proposal No.7, we are asking our stockholders to approve the grant of a performance-based nonstatutory stock option to Mikhail Kokorich (the “CEO Option Grant”) to purchase an aggregate number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock equal to 12.5% of the sum of (i) the outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock immediately following the Business Combination (giving effect to the redemptions of SRAC’s public shares) and (ii) the aggregate number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock underlying the outstanding Momentus options and warrants assumed by SRAC in the Business Combination and immediately following the Business Combination (such sum, the “Applicable Shares”1).

If approved, this CEO Option Grant will be granted outside of the Equity Incentive Plan but will be subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the Equity Incentive Plan. If this Proposal No. 7, is not approved by our stockholders, it will not become effective and the CEO Option Grant will not be made. The CEO Option Grant is described in more detail below. This summary is qualified in its entirety by reference to the complete text of the award agreement (the “CEO Option Agreement”) pursuant to which the CEO Option Grant will be made, a copy of which is attached hereto as Annex E.

Reasons to Approve the CEO Option Grant

We believe Mikhail Kokorich will play a vital role in helping us achieve our goals and advance the interests of our stockholders. Therefore, to ensure our success, we have designed the CEO Option Grant to enhance our ability to incentivize the Mr. Kokorich and promote the success of the Combined Company.

Approval of the CEO Option Grant by our stockholders is required, among other things, to comply with stock exchange rules requiring shareholder approval of equity compensation plans.

Description of the CEO Option Grant

Exercise Price, Term and Exercise Period

The exercise price per share of the CEO Option Grant will be equal to the fair market value per share of Combined Company Class A common stock on the date the CEO Option Grant is granted. The CEO Option Grant will have a 10-year term from the date the CEO Option Grant is granted and will remain outstanding and exercisable until the earliest of (x) two years following Mr. Kokorich’s termination of service (provided that such period will be extended to five years following Mr. Kokorich’s termination without cause or resigns for good reason as described under “Vesting Acceleration”), (y) the original 10-year term of the CEO Option Grant or (z) such earlier date as may be provided or permitted by the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan.

Milestones, Vesting Schedule and Vesting Acceleration

The shares subject to the CEO Option Grant will vest in 10 tranches based upon (A) certification by the Combined Company Board that each of (i) the stock price milestone for such tranche and (ii) an operational milestone has been met ((i) and (ii) together, the “Performance-Based Vesting Requirement”), and (B) Mr. Kokorich’s continued service with Momentus following achievement of the applicable Performance-Based Vesting Requirement.

Performance-Based Vesting Requirement

For each of the 10 vesting tranches set forth in the Stock Price Milestone Table below, the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement will only be deemed satisfied upon the Combined Company Board certifying the achievement, as of any particular date, of both (i) the Stock Price Milestone set forth next to such tranche in the Stock Price Milestone Table below and (ii) the achievement of one of the Operational Milestones specified in the Operational Milestone Table below (as defined below) (such determination on any date, the “Board Certification”). Separate Board Certifications may occur on separate dates with respect to the achievement of a Stock Price Milestone and an Operational Milestone that are required for the vesting of any particular tranche. Once a Stock Price Milestone or an Operational Milestone has been achieved, it is forever deemed achieved (i.e., if total revenue, adjusted EBITDA or price per share (as measured by the below criteria) decline following the satisfaction of a Stock Price Milestone or an Operational Milestone, as applicable, such Stock Price Milestone or Operational Milestone will still be deemed satisfied).

____________

1         For the avoidance of doubt, in no event shall the items set forth in prongs (i) and (ii) above be double-counted in calculating the sum of the Applicable Shares.

174

Table of Contents

Any Operational Milestone may only satisfy the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement of one tranche of shares subject to the CEO Option Grant, together with a corresponding Stock Price Milestone, provided that more than one Operational Milestone and more than one Stock Price Milestone may be deemed to be satisfied at any given time. For example, based on the amounts in the tables below (which, in the case of the Stock Price Milestone Table, are subject to adjustment based on the Applicable Shares as of the Closing) if the Combined Company Board certifies that the Combined Company achieves $1.5 billion of Total Revenue and a stock price of $55 as measured pursuant to the methodology set forth below, the Operational Milestones of $250 million, $750 million and $1.5 billion of Total Revenue will be deemed to be achieved as of such date. However, only two Stock Price Milestones will have been achieved ($32.80 and $49.21) and, therefore, only tranches one and two will vest on such date. However, once the next Stock Price Milestone of $65.61 is achieved and such achievement is certified by the Combined Company Board, the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for tranche number 3 shall vest because the Combined Company Board had already certified that a third Operational Milestone had been achieved, but had not yet been used to satisfy a Stock Price Milestone. For the avoidance of doubt, the achievement of more than 10 of the 12 Operational Milestones will not result in any additional vesting or other compensation to the Chief Executive Officer under the CEO Option Grant.

Each tranche of the CEO Option Grant must be satisfied in ascending order starting with tranche number one. For example, based on the amounts in the tables below (which, in the case of the Stock Price Milestone Table, are subject to adjustment based on the Applicable Shares as of the Closing) if the Combined Company Board certifies that the Combined Company achieves $250 million of Total Revenue and a stock price of $60 as measured pursuant to the methodology set forth below, the Operational Milestone of $250 million will be deemed to be achieved as of such date, along with two Stock Price Milestones ($32.80 and $49.21). In such an event, because only one Operational Milestone has been met, the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement will be met for only one tranche, and it shall be tranche one and not tranche two since the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for each tranche must be satisfied in ascending order starting with tranche one. However, because the Stock Price Milestone for tranche two will already have been achieved, once the Combined Company Board certifies that another unused Operational Milestone has been achieved, the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement will be satisfied for tranche two.

*        “Revenue” means total revenues as reported in the Company’s financial statements on Forms 10-Q or Form 10-K as filed with the SEC for the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters.

**      “Adjusted EBITDA” means net income (or earnings) attributable to the Company’s stockholders before (i) interest expense, (ii) (benefit) provision for income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, and (iv) stock-based compensation, as each such item is reported in the Company’s financial statements on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K as filed with the SEC for the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters.

Upon the consummation of certain acquisitions or split-up, spin-off, or divestiture transactions, each then-unachieved Operational Milestone will be adjusted to offset the impact of such transactions to the extent they could be considered material to the achievement of such Operational Milestones.

In the event that, and as often as, the number of outstanding shares of Combined Company Class A common stock is changed by reason of any dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, exchange or any similar event, then the applicable Stock Price Milestone and the number of shares subject to the CEO Option Grant, including with respect to each vesting tranche, and the exercise price per share of the CEO Option Grant will, in each case be equitably adjusted by the Combined Company Board to reflect such change.

Service-Based Vesting Requirement

Following satisfaction of the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for a tranche of the CEO Option Grant, 1/8th of the shares subject to such tranche will vest on each quarterly anniversary of the date on which the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement is deemed satisfied, subject to Mr. Kokorich’s service with Momentus through each vesting date (the “Service-Based Vesting Requirement”); provided that the Service-Based Vesting Requirement will be deemed satisfied (x) no earlier than the fourth anniversary of the date of grant of the CEO Option Grant and (y) no later than the ninth anniversary of such date of grant. For example, if the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for a tranche of the Award is deemed satisfied on the third anniversary of the date of grant, then the Service-Based Vesting Requirement for such tranche will be deemed satisfied as to 50% of the shares subject to such tranche on the fourth anniversary of the date of grant and the remaining 50% of the shares subject to such tranche will vest in four quarterly installments following the fourth anniversary of the date of grant.

Vesting Acceleration

Subject to a requirement that Mr. Kokorich execute (without revoking) a general release of claims in favor of the Company on a form provided by the Company, the shares subject to the CEO Option Grant are subject to certain acceleration in connection with (i) a Change in Control, (ii) Mr. Kokorich’s termination without cause or (iii) Mr. Kokorich’s resignation for good reason, as described below.

In the event of a Change in Control and subject to Mr. Kokorich’s execution (without revoking) a general release of claims in favor of the Company on a form provided by the Company, (i) the Service-Based Vesting Requirement will be deemed satisfied and (ii) all of the Operational Milestones will be deemed satisfied, such that only the satisfaction of the Stock Price Milestone will be necessary for the related tranche to vest. Furthermore, the Stock Price Milestone will be deemed satisfied if the price per share applicable to such Stock Price Milestone is less than or equal to the price per share of the Combined Company Class A common stock in such Change in Control. Any portion of the CEO Option Grant that is unvested as of a Change in Control shall be forfeited for no consideration.

176

Table of Contents

In the event Mr. Kokorich is terminated without Cause or resigns for Good Reason (as defined in the CEO Option Agreement) and subject to Mr. Kokorich’s execution (without revoking) a general release of claims in favor of the Company on a form provided by the Company, (i) the Service-Based Vesting Requirement will be deemed satisfied and (ii) 40% of the shares subject to the CEO Option Grant for which the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement has not yet been satisfied will remain outstanding and eligible to vest until the earlier of (x) five years from such termination without cause or resignation for good reason and (y) the original 10-year term of the CEO Option Grant.

Cashless Exercise and Post-Exercise Holding Period

Mr. Kokorich will have the ability to satisfy the exercise price of the CEO Option Grant as well as any directly related tax obligations via a cashless exercise transaction. Mr. Kokorich will be required to hold the shares acquired upon exercise of the CEO Option Grant (not including any shares subject to the CEO Option Grant used to pay the exercise price or any directly related tax obligations) until the earlier of (i) the second anniversary of the date of such exercise and (ii) the ninth anniversary of the date of grant of the CEO Option Grant.

Certain Adjustments

Upon the consummation of certain acquisitions or split-up, spin-off, or divestiture transactions, each then-unachieved Operational Milestone will be adjusted to offset the impact of such transactions to the extent they could be considered material to the achievement of such Operational Milestones.

In the event that, and as often as, the number of outstanding shares of the Combined Company Class A common stock is changed by reason of any dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, exchange or any similar event, then the applicable Stock Price Milestone and the number of shares subject to the CEO Option Grant, including with respect to each vesting tranche, and the exercise price per share of the CEO Option Grant will, in each case be equitably adjusted by the Combined Company Board to reflect such change.

Clawback

The CEO Option Grant will be subject to a clawback policy that provides the Combined Company Board the right, but not the obligation, to claw back incentives earned for financially funded results following revenue and/or earnings restatements which reflect lower revenue and/or earnings (as applicable), subject to applicable laws.

The terms of the CEO Option Grant are complex and only briefly summarized above. For further information, please see the CEO Option Grant, which is attached as Annex E hereto. The discussion herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to such document.

Federal Income Tax Information

The following generally summarizes the U.S. federal income tax consequences that will arise with respect to Mr. Kokorich’s participation in the CEO Option Grant and with respect to the sale of Combined Company Class A common stock acquired under the CEO Option Grant, but it is not a detailed or complete description of all U.S. federal tax laws or regulations that may apply, and does not address any local, state or foreign laws. Therefore, no one should rely on this summary for individual tax compliance, planning or decisions. Mr. Kokorich in the Employee Stock Purchase Plan should consult his own professional tax advisors concerning tax aspects of rights under the Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Nothing in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus is written or intended to be used, and cannot be used, for the purposes of avoiding taxpayer penalties. The discussion below concerning tax deductions that may become available to us under U.S. federal tax law is not intended to imply that we will necessarily obtain a tax benefit or asset from those deductions. Taxation of equity-based payments in other countries is complex, does not generally correspond to federal tax laws, and is not covered by the summary below.

Mr. Kokorich did not have taxable income from the grant of the CEO Option Grant nor will he have taxable income from stockholder approval of the CEO Option Grant, if such approval occurs. If and when Mr. Kokorich exercises any portion of the CEO Option Grant, he will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of the fair market value (on the exercise date) of the shares purchased over the exercise price of the option. Any taxable income recognized in connection with the exercise of the CEO Option Grant by Mr. Kokorich will be subject to tax withholding by us. Any additional gain or loss recognized upon any later disposition of the shares will be capital gain or loss.

177

Table of Contents

The Combined Company will not be entitled to a material tax deduction in connection with the CEO Option Grant. In most cases, companies are entitled to a tax deduction in an amount equal to the ordinary income realized by a participant when the participant exercises a nonstatutory stock option and recognizes such income. However, Section 162(m) of the Code limits the deductibility of compensation paid to our Chief Executive Officer to $1,000,000 per year in the aggregate. Therefore, in any given year in which Mr. Kokorich exercises all or part of the CEO Option Grant, the maximum tax deduction that the Company will be able to take will be limited to $1,000,000 for all compensation paid to him that year, regardless of the amount of compensation recognized by Mr. Kokorich from the exercise of the CEO Option Grant.

New Plan Benefits

The following table estimates the number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock that will be subject to the CEO Option Grant to be granted to Mr. Kokorich, with such numbers of shares to be equal to 12.5% of the Applicable Shares (as defined above).

Vote Required for Approval

The CEO Option Grant Proposal will be adopted and approved only if a majority of the votes cast by holders of outstanding SRAC shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy at the Special Meeting and entitled to vote thereon vote “FOR” the CEO Option Grant proposal.

PROPOSAL NO. 8 — THE NASDAQ PROPOSAL

APPROVAL OF THE ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK CONSIDERATION IN CONNECTION WITH THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND THE PIPE INVESTMENT

Overview

Assuming the Business Combination Proposal is approved, the consideration payable in connection with the Closing will be paid to Momentus’ securityholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement through stock consideration consisting of newly issued shares of Combined Company Class A common stock valued at the redemption price payable to holders of public shares who elect to redeem such public shares for cash in connection with the Business Combination. Based on the assumptions set forth in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, SRAC expects the number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock to be issued as consideration to Momentus’ securityholders to be equal to 105,019,873 in both the no redemption and maximum redemption scenarios (3,000,000 of which would immediately be repurchased by SRAC in the no redemption scenario pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement).

SRAC has also entered into Subscription Agreements with the PIPE Investors pursuant to which SRAC will issue and sell to the PIPE Investors 17,500,000 shares of SRAC Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $175,000,000.

At the consummation of the Mergers, SRAC, Sponsor, certain existing holder(s) of SRAC capital stock (including SRAC Partners) and certain Company stockholders, in each case who will receive Combined Company Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement in respect of the shares of SRAC Class A common stock issued to Sponsor and such Company stockholders in connection with the transactions set forth above. Pursuant to such agreement, such holders and their permitted transferees will be entitled to certain customary registration rights, including, among other things, demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cut-back provisions. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, Sponsor and SRAC Partners will agree not to sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock or other securities exercisable therefor for certain time periods specified therein.

As contemplated by the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal, SRAC intends to reserve a number of shares equal to 7.5% and 2.0% of the issued and outstanding shares of SRAC Class A common stock for issuance under the Equity Incentive Plan and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan, respectively, immediately following the Business Combination (after giving effect to the redemptions). As contemplated by the CEO Option Grant Proposal, SRAC intends to reserve a number of shares equal number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock equal to 12.5% of the sum of (i) the outstanding shares of SRAC Class A common stock immediately following the Business Combination (after giving effect to the redemptions) and the Repurchase, if applicable) (ii) the aggregate number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock underlying the outstanding Momentus options and warrants assumed by SRAC in the Business Combination and immediately following the Business Combination (the “Applicable Shares”).

The terms of the stock consideration in the Business Combination and the PIPE Investment are complex and only briefly summarized above. For further information, please see the full text of the Merger Agreement, which is attached as Annex A hereto, the form of Subscription Agreement, which is attached as Annex H hereto, the form of the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, which is attached as Annex I hereto the form of the CEO Option Grant, which is attached as Annex E, hereto and the form of the Equity Incentive Plan, which is attached as Annex C hereto. The discussion herein is qualified in its entirety by reference to such documents.

Why SRAC Needs Stockholder Approval

We are seeking stockholder approval in order to comply with Nasdaq Listing Rules 5635(a), (b) and (d).

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(a), stockholder approval is required prior to the issuance of common stock or other securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock, in connection with the acquisition of the stock or assets of another company, if such securities are not issued in a public offering and (i) the common stock has, or will have upon issuance, voting power equal to or in excess of 20% of the voting power outstanding before the issuance of such securities, or (ii) the number of shares of common stock to be issued is or will be equal to or in excess of 20% of

179

Table of Contents

the number of shares of common stock outstanding before the issuance of such securities. Collectively, SRAC may issue 20% or more of our outstanding common stock or securities representing 20% or more of the voting power, in each case outstanding before the issuance, pursuant to the issuance of common stock in connection with the Business Combination and the PIPE Investment. In addition, SRAC intends to reserve for issuance shares of Class A common stock for potential future issuances of Class A common stock under the Equity Incentive Plan, the Employee Stock Purchase Plan and the CEO Option Grant.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(b), stockholder approval is required where the issuance of securities will result in a change of control. Because the issuances to Momentus stockholders in the Business Combination and to the investors in connection with the PIPE Investment, in each case as described above, may result in certain of such investors owning more than 20% of SRAC’s common stock outstanding before the issuance, such issuances may be deemed a change of control. Therefore, we are seeking the approval of our stockholders.

Under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d), stockholder approval is required for a transaction other than a public offering involving the sale, issuance or potential issuance by an issuer of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) at a price that is less than the lower of (i) the closing price immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement or (ii) the average closing price of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding the signing of the binding agreement, if the number of shares of common stock (or securities convertible into or exercisable for common stock) to be issued equals to 20% or more of the common stock, or 20% or more of the voting power, outstanding before the issuance.

Effect of Proposal on Current Stockholders

If the Nasdaq Proposal is adopted and the Business Combination are consummated, it is estimated that up to 105,019,873 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock could be issued pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement as stock consideration in the Business Combination, which collectively represents approximately 475% of the 22,107,500 shares outstanding on the date hereof. Additionally, in connection with the PIPE Investment, SRAC will issue 17,500,000 shares of SRAC Class A common stock. SRAC will also reserve a number of shares equal to 9.5% of the issued and outstanding shares of SRAC Class A common stock immediately following the Business Combination under the Equity Incentive Plan Proposal and the Employee Stock Purchase Plan Proposal and an additional 8,897,500 shares in connection with the public warrants and the private placement warrants. In addition, SRAC will reserve a number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock equal to 12.5% of the Applicable Shares under the CEO Option Grant Proposal. The issuance of such shares would result in significant dilution to SRAC’s stockholders, and would afford SRAC’s stockholders a smaller percentage interest in the voting power, liquidation value and aggregate book value of SRAC.

Vote Required for Approval

The approval of the Nasdaq Proposal requires that a majority of the votes cast by holders of SRAC’s outstanding shares of common stock represented in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at the Special Meeting vote “FOR” the Nasdaq Proposal. Failure to vote by proxy or to vote in person at the Special Meeting will have no effect on the vote. Abstentions will have no effect on the vote for this proposal.

This proposal is conditioned upon the approval of the Business Combination Proposal and the Charter Amendment Proposal. If the Business Combination Proposal or the Charter Amendment Proposal is not approved, this proposal will have no effect, even if approved by SRAC’s stockholders.

Recommendation of the Board of Directors

THE SRAC BOARD UNANIMOUSLY RECOMMENDS THAT STOCKHOLDERS VOTE “FOR” THE ISSUANCE OF COMMON STOCK CONSIDERATION TO BE ISSUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE BUSINESS COMBINATION AND THE PIPE INVESTMENT

INFORMATION ABOUT MOMENTUS

Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to the “Company,” “we,” “us,” or “our” refer to the business of Momentus prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

Company Overview

Momentus is a first mover in offering in-space infrastructure services, and we believe that we will be vital to building out the tools, infrastructure, and services that will be instrumental to enabling the commercialization of space. Momentus will utilize a multi-pronged approach to provide three critical functions in the new space economy: Space Transportation, Satellite as a Service, and In-Orbit Services. Momentus is planning to create the first hub and spoke model in space by offering last-mile delivery in partnership with leading providers of launch services on large and mid-size rockets, such as SpaceX. By combining the capabilities of low-cost launch vehicles from third party providers with our in-space transfer and service vehicles powered by water plasma propulsion technology, we expect to offer our customers significantly more affordable access to space. Our vehicles will be equipped with our in-house designed groundbreaking water plasma propulsion technology. We believe that this technology will enable us to deliver fast, versatile, and cost-effective services to our clients. We are confident that our highly experienced team of entrepreneurs, engineers, and operations managers will position us to be a market leader in the development of the new space economy. Since our founding in 2017, we have successfully tested our water plasma propulsion technology in space, signed contracts worth approximately $90 million (as of November 1, 2020) in potential revenue, and have continued to develop and enhance our technology and vehicles. Our first launch with customers is anticipated to occur in January 2021.

Our services are made possible by the rapid technological developments in the space industry over the past two decades, driven predominantly by significant decreases in launch costs, as well as the advent of smaller, lower-cost satellites. This convergence of trends has resulted in substantial growth in the commercial space market, rooted in higher accessibility for companies entering the new space economy that aim to offer communication, earth observation, and data collection services, and other satellite services. The broader space economy is projected to grow from approximately $415 billion in 2018 (according to Space Foundation Space Report) to $1.4 trillion over the next decade (according to Bank of America Global Research). More specifically, the space transportation market is projected to increase from approximately $10 billion in 2018 to $30 billion to $40 billion in 2026 (according to Stratistics). Similarly, the number of small satellites launched has approximately tripled over the last four years, mostly across low earth orbit (“LEO”), though new applications beyond LEO are emerging. We anticipate the space transportation and small satellite market to be drivers of growth in the short-term as satellite technology drives smaller and cheaper satellites, and increasing numbers of satellite constellations continue to emerge. The total addressable market opportunity (“TAM”) for in-space transportation services for small satellites (up to 750 kg) to LEO is estimated to be $1.5 billion, and the TAM for customer payloads of up to 4,000 kg is estimated to be $10 billion and customer payloads of up to 20,000 kg is estimated to be $37 billion. We believe that over the next decade, emerging new business models of space-based services, such as the generation of solar energy in space, space manufacturing, space data processing, and others will increase. These new business models could substantially increase demand for space transportation and other space infrastructure services.

We are designing our vehicles to be compatible with most launch vehicles to maximize flexibility and competition within our supply chain. Pairing this competitive advantage with our competitive pricing, transportation efficiency, and our partnerships, we believe that we will play a key role in driving the industrialization and commercialization of space.

Services Overview

Taking advantage of the efficiency and low cost of our water plasma propulsion technology, we are developing our vehicles to provide the following infrastructure services to the space economy:

•        Space Transportation.    We are designing our space transportation service based on a hub and spoke model. When the time for launch approaches, our customers send us their payload a few months in advance for integration onto our vehicle. Once their payload has been integrated, our vehicle will then be prepared for launch. We will then incorporate our vehicle, holding the customer’s payload fixture, into the payload of the rocket. The rocket will then transport our vehicle to the drop-off orbit. At this point, after separation from the rocket, we will initiate delivery to the customer’s final orbit. Using our water plasma thrusters,

the vehicle will transport each customer payload to its respective orbit. We believe that this service will give our clients the accessibility that rocket providers cannot provide, as their drop-off points are limited. For comparison, the cost of deploying a microsatellite on a dedicated small rocket can cost more than $70,000 per kilogram, whereas we believe that utilizing a combination of a shared rocket launch with our last-mile delivery service can bring down the cost to $15,000 per kilogram or less. The capabilities of our vehicles will eventually enable us to deliver small customer payloads to anywhere in LEO using Vigoride, our pioneer vehicle. We believe we will be able to deliver larger payloads further out to medium earth orbit (“MEO”), geosynchronous orbit (“GEO”), or even Lunar Orbit using our future vehicles, Ardoride and Fervoride, which we expect to begin providing services by 2023 and 2025, respectively. Initially, after delivering our customer payloads to their final orbits, our vehicles will deorbit. However, we anticipate our vehicles will have reusability capabilities, starting in 2023, such that, upon delivery of the payload, they will be capable of remaining in space to conduct further missions.

Our Anticipated Space Transportation Services

•        Satellite as a Service (Hosted Payloads).    The space community’s traditional business model long assumed tight integration of a client’s payload and its satellite bus. This approach was a natural consequence of infrequent, expensive launches, and lengthy development timelines for individual satellites. Each satellite was “first (and often “last”) of its kind,” and its designers would do their best to optimize a satellite’s mass for a given mission, given the constraints imposed by a pre-selected launch vehicle. Now, in an age of ubiquitous, low-cost Earth-to-orbit transportation, the cost of a satellite system, which includes non-recurring design and recurring manufacturing, dominates over launch. Optimum cost savings can be achieved by applying modularity and standardization to a satellite’s design. Momentus will enable the ultimate in modularity by offering our Satellite as a Service model. Once a customer payload is attached, our vehicles will move to the desired orbit and remain attached to the hosted payload to provide continuous power, orbit maintenance, orientation, and communications to support telemetry, commanding, and downlinking of payload data, for the duration of the mission. We are designing our vehicles with the idea of modularity, ease of integration, and a wide range of available power — from 1 kilowatt (“kW”) for Vigoride to 10kW for Ardoride and 100kW for Fervoride — to offer a low-cost service model, which will be the critical enabler to the growth of a high-power payload market.

Our Satellite as a Service business

For example, we envision charging a subscription pricing of less than $1 million per year for a typical Vigoride Satellite as a Service mission of greater than 1kW of power and up to 2 km/sec of delta-velocity capabilities, whereas a traditional satellite platform can cost over $10 million. We believe that this unique model that features a higher degree of modularity can significantly increase orbital accessibility for a wide variety of satellite operators.

•        In-Orbit Servicing.    In-orbit servicing of satellites is a quickly growing business opportunity. As the number of satellites in space increases, so does their need to be serviced. We are designing Momentus’ future reusable vehicles to be capable of performing in-orbit servicing. They will be equipped with robotic arms and have capabilities for proximity maneuvering and berthing. Eventually, this will enable us to offer a suite of different in-orbit services, such as inspection, refueling, life extension, re-positioning, salvage missions, maintenance and repair, and de-orbiting.

Our In-Orbit Services

Strategy Overview

Using our groundbreaking water plasma propulsion technology (microwave electrothermal, or “MET,” thrusters), we seek to provide safe, affordable, reliable, and regular in-space services, including Space Transportation, Satellite as a Service, and In-Orbit Servicing. To accomplish this, we intend to:

•        Launch our commercial program for in-space transportation.    In June 2019, we conducted the first in-space test of our water plasma propulsion technology. The small spacecraft that was launched was

183

Table of Contents

equipped with a Momentus MET thruster using water as a propellant. The vehicle was launched into space and successfully performed various in-space tests and confirmed the functionality of our water propulsion system. We plan to launch the first iteration of our pioneer transport vehicle, Vigoride, in January 2021, followed by five vehicles later during 2021. All of our flights, beginning in January 2021, will have paying customers onboard. Additionally, our agile philosophy guides us to test upgrades in almost every flight mission next year to continually optimize performance and lower cost. For our first flights, we are limiting our service offering and giving a discount to customers, which also minimizes risk for them. For example, in our January 2021 launch, we plan to deploy customer satellites after separation from the Falcon-9 rocket, at the drop-off orbit of the Falcon-9 rocket, and then conduct a series of basic in-orbit maneuvers. For our early 2021 missions, we are offering customers an altitude change; however, after deploying customer satellites, we plan to perform a series of more demanding maneuvers, such as an orbital plane change. We plan to offer full orbital transfer capabilities, including orbital plane changes and inclination changes by mid-2021. We have seen significant customer traction for our space transportation services and have signed contracts worth approximately $90 million (as of November 1, 2020) in potential revenue.

•        Achieve reusability in our vehicles.    Our vehicles are currently not reusable, meaning that upon delivery of the payload, they will de-orbit. In the future, we plan to make these vehicles capable of reusability such that, upon delivery of the payload, they will be able to remain in space to conduct further missions. Additional customer payloads will be sent into space to be serviced by our fleet of reusable vehicles already in-space. We plan to start using reusable Vigoride vehicles in 2023. Using water as a propellant is a key enabler of reusability, as water can be stored without special conditions for an indefinite amount of time and pumped easily. Additionally, water is safe and non-hazardous. Common propellants such as cryogenic components and hypergolic toxic fuels for chemical propulsion, or highly pressurized noble gases (such as Xenon or Krypton) for electrical propulsion, create challenges for providing appropriate storage conditions and refueling. In fact, the explosions caused by fuel remaining in the upper stages of retired rockets are the primary source of orbital debris. Achieving reusability will allow us to lower vehicle costs on a per-ride basis and achieve higher, consistent margins.

•        Expand our fleet of in-space vehicles.    Vigoride, Ardoride, and Fervoride will comprise our initial suite of vehicles for our commercial operations. We plan to start with Vigoride in 2020 and 2021, which will be sufficient to meet our initial operating plan of offering in-space transportation in LEO to small satellites. We plan to start providing service with Ardoride in 2023 and with Fervoride in 2025. We plan to gradually increase the number of vehicles in the fleets of each of the three vehicle types.

•        Launch our commercial program for Satellite as a Service.    Using our vehicles, we plan to provide a modular approach to satellite systems through our Satellite as a Service model. For missions that require significant power for the payload and a specific orbit, we believe Momentus will be able to provide a unique combination of a low-cost service model, in-orbit flexibility, and high electrical power generation. We expect to be able to provide an alternative in many cases to traditional approaches that involve integrating a payload into an expensive and highly complicated satellite bus capable of delivering the satellite to a specific orbit. We plan to provide Satellite as a Service starting in 2022 on Vigoride vehicles and in 2024 on Ardoride vehicles. We were recently selected by Lockheed Martin to support its $89.7 million contract from NASA’s 2020 Tipping Point solicitation, to provide Satellite as a Service using our Vigoride vehicle for Lockheed Martin’s payload.

•        Launch our commercial program for In-Orbit Servicing.    As soon as we achieve reusability capabilities for our vehicles, we believe we will be able to offer a suite of different in-orbit services to our clients. Such services may include inspection, refueling, life extension, re-positioning, salvage missions, maintenance and repair, and de-orbiting. As the quantity of satellites sent into space continues to increase, we anticipate growing demand from satellite operators seeking to, among other things, de-orbit defunct satellites or replenish failed satellites in orbital planes.

•        Deploy orbital water depots. To enable reusability, we plan to use additional water delivered to space as a part of a separate payload with water delivered and stored in special vehicles called “orbital depots.” The advantage of water depots is that they minimize the launch cost of propellant and provide a steady in-orbit

184

•        Develop enabling technologies.    We plan to develop solar generation and robotic technologies and proximity maneuver capabilities that will allow reusability, especially for our larger vehicles and possible future business lines. We are employing conventional and novel ways to develop our current and future solar power generation capabilities, including low-cost photovoltaic panels and solar thermal power generation that use steam turbines. We are also developing our proximity operations and space robotics capabilities. We are developing most of these technologies in-house, but we also have partnerships, such as our current partnership for robotic arms with Made in Space Europe. Beyond that, we continue to actively seek out additional partnerships to expand upon our product offering and vehicle capabilities.

•        Leverage our technologies to expand beyond our current service lines to some “moonshot” opportunities.    Though our primary focus is on maximizing the performance of our vehicles to offer Space Transportation, Satellite as a Service, and In-Orbit Servicing, we continue to actively explore the application of our technologies for “moonshot” opportunities, including extraterrestrial mining, in-space renewable energy farms, manufacturing and assembly on a mass scale, and data processing in space. We are already supporting a NASA study related to extraterrestrial mining. In our financial forecast, we are taking into consideration the research and development costs of exploring such possibilities, but are not accounting for any potential revenues, which we believe to be a very conservative approach. The potential addressable market for these moonshot opportunities could be enormous.

Competitive Advantage Overview

Our goal is to become the pioneer of the space economy’s infrastructure and facilitate the exploration of both near and deep space. We believe our ability to compete successfully as a commercial provider of space transportation and infrastructure services does and will depend on several factors including the price of our offerings, ability to maintain our lead in cornerstone technology, consumer confidence in the reliability of our offerings, and the frequency and availability of our offerings. We believe that our team’s collective expertise, coupled with the following strengths, will allow us to build our business and compete successfully.

•        Focus on a service model with standardized, modular vehicles.    Unlike traditional aerospace companies, which generally focus on selling hardware, such as satellites, propulsion units, satellite platforms, and others, Momentus is applying a service model for infrastructure services in space. Traditionally, satellite operators have had to procure hardware required to deploy necessary space infrastructure. Momentus plans to provide infrastructure as a service, including delivery to customers’ final orbits, Satellite as a Service, and in-orbit servicing. Our service model will build long-lasting partnership relationships with satellite operators, which will create entry barriers for competitors.

•        Unique, ground-breaking technology with patents pending.

We are the first company to successfully test microwave electrothermal water propulsion in space, and we plan to be the first company to commercialize and industrialize such technology for in-space transportation. While microwave electrothermal propulsion has been researched and available in the public domain for decades, the technology has never been industrialized. Over recent years, we have developed our revolutionary, patent-pending water plasma propulsion technology, which serves as the foundation of each type of vehicle that we have developed or are developing and is instrumental in achieving our vision of robust space infrastructure. We are in the process of creating a robust patent portfolio and have filed 15 U.S. and Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) patent applications that describe 70 distinct ideas. We believe that our pending patent applications and trade secrets will create a significant barrier to entry for all competitors aspiring to use any water-based propulsion technology, which we believe is optimal for in-space transportation and infrastructure services. We believe that our water plasma propulsion technology and its integration in our vehicles will allow us to provide in-space transportation services at significantly lower prices and enable the following key differentiators:

•        Tunable to achieve up to 3 to 10 times more thrust than common electric propulsion systems for the same power, which will result in much shorter trip times (up to 5 times less for some missions from LEO to GEO), or

185

Table of Contents

•        Tunable to achieve up to 2 to 5 times higher specific impulse than common chemical propulsion systems and significantly less propellant need for the same maneuvers (up to 10 times less for some missions such as LEO to GEO) (specific impulse or “ISP” is a measure of how effectively a propulsion system uses a propellant, where ISP is impulse (or thrust x time) per unit mass of propellant).

•        Vehicle manufacturing will be up to 10 times cheaper due to the simplicity of the water storage (low pressure, ambient temperature, no toxicity) and feed system, especially when compared to cryogenic or toxic hypergolic fuel or highly pressurized noble gases for electrical propulsion.

•        Ease in scaling thrust level to dozens of newtons and more of thrust, especially when compared to that of conventional electrical propulsion systems. Such thrust will enable larger vehicles such as Fervoride to deliver 10-20 tons from LEO to GEO within three months.

•        Our thrusters will be able to change the thrust and ISP to optimize trajectory and trip times for specific mission requirements.

Currently, other competitors have simply taken an existing propulsion technology and integrated it onto a vehicle; such technologies exhibit either low ISP (chemical propulsion) or low thrust (electric propulsion), thereby negatively affecting the payload mass fraction (and transportation cost) for chemical propulsion and delivery time for electric propulsion.

Chemical propulsion systems offer high thrust and limited fuel efficiency. Due to the need to handle and store toxic pressurized propellant or cryogenic fuel, chemical propulsion offerings can be costly. Our competitors that are planning to use chemical propulsion include Spaceflight Industries, MOOG, D-Orbit, and Astroscale. We believe that our water plasma propulsion technology will allow us to offer higher efficiency and therefore lower cost to our customers.

Several of our competitors are planning to use conventional electric propulsion systems, such as Hall-Effect thrusters. These competitors include Spaceflight Industries and MOOG. Hall-effect thrusters offer high fuel efficiency, but low thrust. The low thrust of Hall-effect thrusters, in contrast to Momentus’ water plasma thrusters, leads to either increased time to deliver customers’ payloads to specific orbits (which adds opportunity cost for the customer) or require much larger solar panels to achieve meaningful thrust, significantly increasing the cost of the system.

Moreover, some of our competitors who are operators of small rockets, including Rocket Labs, are developing transfer vehicles purposefully designed for their small rockets, which are more expensive. Unlike Momentus’ vehicles, which can be launched on many different medium and large rockets, a small rocket company’s transfer vehicles are simply upper stages. Given this, they are unable to use our advantages of low-cost launches on larger rockets and flexibility in selecting the launch vehicle for delivery to orbit. This leads to significantly more expensive service for a small rocket company’s customers. Thus, we believe that our customer value proposition is highly attractive and low cost.

Given that the last-mile service business model is one predicated on transportation cost and speed, Momentus anticipates providing more competitive service than our competitors.

•        Mission-driven strategy.    Momentus is a vision and mission driven company, which underpins our focus on our long-term vision and aligns all of our day-to-day activities in achieving this goal. When we make any decision about our vehicles and services, our technologies, or sales opportunities, we collate our actions with our vision and mission. This helps us make decisions quickly and move towards achieving our goal of building Momentus to be the key provider of infrastructure services to support all industries beyond Earth.

•        Significant backlog and pent up customer demand.    Ahead of our first Vigoride launch occurring in January 2021 with commercial customers, we have received significant interest from a wide range of different customers across different satellite applications. Our current signed backlog (as of November 1, 2020) is worth approximately $90 million in potential revenue and continues to increase, while our pipeline consists of approximately $1.1 billion in potential contracts in negotiation or early conversations. We remain in active discussions with potential customers and anticipate a considerable increase of backlog and revenue as the small satellite and satellite constellation markets continue to develop. Additionally, our backlog and pipeline mostly represent the initial test and demo flights of our customers’ satellite constellations. We expect that following the successful delivery of service on our first several flights, our customers will continue to use us on the further rollout of their satellite constellations.

•        Partnership with launch providers.    We have relationships with several launch providers including SpaceX, GK Launch Services and International Launch Services. Our current rideshare partnership agreement with SpaceX consists of reserved ports on their launches through 2022 and our contract with them maximizes the flexibility, economics, and optionality we can offer our clients. Additionally, as an aggregator of payloads, we can service customers from around the world who might not otherwise have access to the launch options Momentus can provide. Please see the section titled “— Our Partnerships with Launch Providers” below for additional details.

•        Pricing & costs of production.    We are designing our vehicles using high-quality, effective, inexpensive components to optimize our costs, enabled by our technologies. The expected general unit economics for a Vigoride vehicle are as follows:

•        $15,000 per kilogram paid by customers (depending on the orbital change needs of the client, the total price per kilogram could reach $20,000), including launch and in-space delivery

•        Capable of payload delivery of up to 750 kg

•        Expected production costs of approximately $1,000,000 per vehicle when we achieve a steady production mode

By comparison, other similar vehicles can cost up to $10 million to produce, or 10 times more, incorporating Hall-effect thrusters, xenon tanks, solar panels, and reaction wheels for attitude control.

Certain of our components, such as solar cells, microwave generators, and some sensors, are sourced from third parties, but we maintain economical pricing. In addition to continuing to utilize easily affordable components, we are exploring various options around bringing different sources in-house.

•        Compatibility across launch providers.    We have designed and will continue to design our future vehicles to be compatible with most launch vehicles. This will give our customers ultimate flexibility around the timing and availability of launches and ensure a competitive market for our launch providers. As more rocket operators emerge, we will continue to actively incorporate compatibility to increase customer accessibility.

•        Experienced management team and an industry-leading team of engineers.    Many of our management team members, led by Mikhail Kokorich, have extensive experience leading large organizations, including Space Development Agency, Boeing, Maxar, Lockheed Martin and DARPA. Our team of engineers is similarly experienced, contributing hundreds of collective years in leading commercial satellite businesses at Boeing, Maxar, and SSL, among others. Our commercial team is also led and supported by individuals with considerable experience in commercial space sales. Our efficient vertical integration allows for significant cooperation and interactivity between teams, creating an unparalleled support network within Momentus.

•        First mover advantage — flight heritage.    A key space-specific barrier to entry is flight heritage. Ultimately the only way to assess the reliability of a product, such as satellites or launch services, is by seeing a history of successful results, which in turn influences insurance rates and customers’ perceptions. Therefore, we believe that our status as a first mover will offer a substantial competitive advantage as we continue to build flight heritage ahead of competitors.

•        Breadth of offerings.    Moving forward, the breadth of our offerings, including an array of vehicles with much more mission flexibility than the competition, places Momentus at the crossroads of the space transportation and infrastructure services ecosystem. This unique positioning may redefine the competitive landscape, and enable a greater degree of cooperation among existing players — a future Momentus works towards with our current relationships with partners.

Global Space Economy Overview

In recent years, the entire space industry has been waiting and looking for what will serve as the industrial revolution of space. The industrial revolution in the 1800s was so significant that it changed the entire world economy. We anticipate the unlocking of space as the last frontier to similarly revolutionize society.

The importance of space is endless, as technologies can create considerable solutions on Earth across satellite imagery, weather, television and communications. We believe we are at the beginning of a new economic era driven by a massive influx of investment, entrepreneurial energy, and engineering talent into the space industry which we believe will spark a large-scale new “space race.” Presently, the entire space economy — including rockets, communications, imagery, satellites, and crewed flights — does not exceed $415 billion, which is less than 0.3% of the global economy.

While the current size of the space economy is not at a scale to cause significant movements in the global economy, the deployment of satellite internet megaconstellations, such as Starlink from SpaceX, Kuiper from Amazon, Azure from Microsoft, and a few others from smaller players, may be a first step in our collective endeavor towards a real new economy in space. The size of the global telecommunications market is currently $1.5 trillion, or almost 1.2% of the global economy. If several factors coincide, such as a sharp increase in the consumption of multimedia content by driverless car passengers and rapid growth in the Internet of Things segment, satellite telecommunications services may grow in the medium term to $1 trillion or more. In turn, this segment may be the driver of growth when it comes to the space economy, and could be on track to exceed 1% of the global economy.

The last decade of innovation has seen a significant improvement in the technologies available in the space industry. The combination of increased access to capital, economies of scale, and open innovation models has driven explosive growth in the commercial space market. According to the Bank of America Global Research, the commercial space market is forecasted to grow from approximately $415 billion in 2018 to $1.4 trillion over the next decade. The growth in private investment in the commercial space industry has led to a wave of new companies reinventing parts of the traditional space industry, including human spaceflight, satellites, payload delivery, and methods of launch, in addition to unlocking entirely new market segments. Furthermore, government agencies have realized the value of the private commercial space industry and have become increasingly more supportive and reliant on private companies to catalyze innovation and advance national space objectives. In the United States, this has been evidenced by notable policy initiatives and by commercial contractors’ growing share of space activity.

Space Transportation Market

We are witnessing tectonic shifts in the launch market caused by the emergence of large, partially reusable rockets such as SpaceX’s Falcon-9 or Blue Origin’s New Glenn, and the advent of a new era of fully reusable vehicles like Starship. Reliable, low-cost access to space, is lowering the entry barriers for new service models and has allowed new entrants to grow quickly. There is a large number of companies actively developing new services in traditional communication, earth observation, and data collection. The reduction in cost of microsatellite launches from $50,000/kg to $100,000/kg five years ago to $10,000/kg to $20,000/kg currently has prompted many companies to try to become a part of the new space economy

In recent times, small launch providers (i.e. small rockets carrying approximately 100kg) have been the “go-to” launchers for smaller payloads. There is currently only one small rocket player providing launches. However, they are still 10 to 100 times more expensive on a price per kilogram basis than mid or large rockets. Due to the sheer energy required to overcome the Earth’s gravity, large rockets are inherently more efficient. Smaller rockets have most of their mass utilized by structure and propellant, leaving less mass available for customer payloads. The inherently low customer payload capacity of small rockets makes launching customer payloads much more expensive per kilogram. Given the lack of options, some satellite operators have been willing to pay a premium to control the final orbit and launch date.

We anticipate that the most considerable disruption will come from a new breed of fully reusable, gigantic rockets like Starship. The cost structure for launching payloads on such rockets could become low enough to enable many new applications that would not be economically viable with current prices. The potential for energy generation in space, manufacturing in orbit, space data processing, space tourism, and many more potential new industries will likely change the space economy’s trajectory.

Market dynamics — decreasing launch costs

Satellite Market

Another paradigm shift in the commercial space market is the rise of the small satellite market. Prior to 2018, only a few dozen small satellites were launched per year. Today, the number has grown to several hundred per year and is on track to reach more than several thousand per year. Moreover, the rise of this market has also created a new market segment in nanosatellites and microsatellites, weighing less than 10 kilograms and between 10 and 100 kilograms, respectively. While these satellites can be deployed individually, they can also be operated as part of a constellation, a large group of satellites interconnected to provide a service, such as the Starlink satellite constellation’s offering of global internet connectivity.

The growth in the satellite constellations market is being driven by technological advances in ground equipment, new business models, expanded funding, and growing demand for high bandwidth and lower latency. Though this satellite constellations market remains nascent in maturity, we anticipate considerable growth over the coming years in the space transportation segment as companies continue to seek versatile and low-cost ways to deliver single satellites to specific orbits or deploy their satellite constellations. Furthermore, we anticipate the growth of the satellite constellations market to contribute business to our Satellite as a Service and In-Orbit Servicing offerings. Satellite constellations have relatively low life spans and will require maintenance, de-orbiting, and other general servicing with higher frequency.

Market dynamics — increasing market for small satellites to LEO

With the development of rideshare rockets, the number of satellites has increased almost tenfold in the last decade. In 2010, only 70 satellites were launched globally, while 493 satellites were launched in 2019 alone (according to Bryce Space & Technology). The main driver of this growth has been the advent of small satellites (“smallsats”), defined as

189

Table of Contents

satellites weighing less than 600kg. As smallsats have continued to become more capable, less expensive and smaller (the average mass in 2019 was 109kg according to Northern Sky Research), they have continued to be an increasing part of the market, accounting for nearly 80% of the satellites launched in 2019 (according to Northern Sky Research).

Of the 389 smallsats launched in 2019 (according to Bryce Space and Technology):

•        The numbers of smallsats increased substantially (nearly 8x) from 2012, when 50 smallsats were launched

•        Share of smallsats providing commercial services was 62% in 2019, up from 6% in 2012

•        Distribution of use cases were as follows: 37% communications, 32% technology development, 26% remote sensing, 3% scientific and 2% other

•        45% of all rocket launches globally included smallsats, nearly double from 24% in 2012

•        57% of smallsats launched by U.S. launch providers

The next decade will see the launch of more than 11,600 satellites (according to Northern Sky Research), out of which 76% will be for commercial customers and the remaining 24% for governments and military. We believe that this estimate is conservative, given the announced plans of several large satellite constellations. For example, SpaceX’s Starlink plans to deploy more than 40,000 satellites and Amazon’s Kuiper has announced plans to deploy more than 3,000 satellites. The vast majority (92%) of these satellites will target non-geostationary orbits, which is where our first generation of vehicles will operate.

Within the non-geostationary market, three categories stand out with an average satellite mass that is serviceable by our Vigoride vehicles: commercial communications satellites, commercial earth observation satellites, and other satellites. These three categories exclude larger satellites serving the science, navigation, and situational focused markets. These three categories that could be served by Vigoride are characterized by a weighted average unit mass of 279 kilograms. Over the next decade, this represents a total of 8,707 smallsats and an aggregated mass of 1,931 tons. It is also worth noting that the vast majority (78%) of the aggregated mass of these three categories is attributable to satellite constellation customers, who, we believe, will require in-space transportation and infrastructure services to deploy and maintain their satellite constellation. By focusing on these three segments, in addition to satellite constellation opportunities, the core market for Vigoride vehicles amounts to approximately 6,800 satellites and more than 1,500 tons of payloads to orbit in the short to medium term.

Our Partnerships with Launch Providers

We are designing each of our vehicles to be compatible with most rockets, and we have not entered into exclusivity arrangements with any single launch provider. We do not anticipate any changes to this approach, as we want to maximize our opportunities and retain the optionality to engage with other launch providers.

Other advantages of maintaining a diverse set of launch partners include service resiliency in the event of launch failures and the subsequent grounding of a launch vehicle, access to otherwise protected markets through the use of specific launch vehicles, and, orbit diversity to provide access to all orbits of interest to our customers.

To date, we have entered into several launch services agreements including SpaceX, Relativity Space and GK Launch Services. Beyond these providers, we remain in active dialogue and have strong relationships with Blue Origin, ILS, Arianespace, ULA, ABL Space Systems, and several other small rocket providers. We anticipate extending existing agreements or entering into new agreements as is necessary to build a robust launch manifest and cadence. Given the recent growth of the industry, we foresee additional relationships arising as more players join the industry.

We have developed a strong relationship with SpaceX, with whom we are currently partnered on all of their dedicated rideshare missions through 2022, and are in active discussions to extend and expand the agreement. The relationship between our companies is recognized as mutually beneficial: Momentus will unlock a market for Space X by consolidating small satellites on our transport vehicles, which will then be launched by SpaceX on their Falcon-9 rideshare missions, and delivered by Momentus to their unique, respective orbits. Gwynne Shotwell, SpaceX’s President and Chief Operating Officer, has stated publicly: “[Momentus’] innovative technology will offer a strong complement to SpaceX Falcon 9’s capability to reliably and affordably launch payloads for small satellite operators.”

Made in Space Europe Relationship Overview

We are leveraging our Satellite as a Service capabilities with Made In Space Europe. Made in Space Europe is developing a low-cost robotic arm that we believe will be well suited for use on Vigoride vehicles for robotic berthing operations, which are needed to enable re-usability. Momentus is working with Made In Space Europe to provide mission-specific requirements to inform their robotic arm development. In mid-2022, we anticipate conducting a joint in-orbit demonstration mission with Made In Space Europe, which will demonstrate the arm’s ability to perform the various tasks that will be needed for re-usability and future servicing missions.

RBC Signals Relationship Overview

Momentus has chosen RBC Signals as our ground systems provider for Vigoride missions in LEO, starting in 2021. RBC’s extensive network of over 70 antennas located in over 50 geographic locations is well suited to support our high mission volume to diverse orbits. Furthermore, RBC’s pay-per-pass model is an excellent fit for our relatively short mission durations of several months (before re-usability). RBC’s ground network service offers a dramatic cost and complexity advantage over a dedicated ground network and significant cost advantages over other traditional ground system providers.

Water Propulsion Technology Overview

Our revolutionary water plasma propulsion technology provides a unique competitive advantage for our vehicles and services. While the underlying technology has been around for many years, we are in the process of seeking patent protection for our application of the technology and have filed 15 U.S. and PCT patent applications that describe 70 distinct ideas, which cover the integration of the technology into our vehicles, development, and functionality of the engine, and other integral non-obvious elements of the technology.

The technology works as follows. Solar panels attached to our vehicle capture solar energy, which is then converted into microwave energy using standard microwave conversion technology, for which we currently use a magnetron. However, we anticipate shifting to solid-state power amplifiers as we scale our vehicles. The conversion technology takes direct current (“DC”) power from the solar arrays and storage batteries and outputs the energy in the form of microwaves into the thrust chamber. Once in the chamber, the microwave energy is transferred into the water propellant, which is inserted as steam through a separate injector. The water is then heated into a plasma state and expelled from the thruster through a separate nozzle, thus creating a propulsive force. This propulsion is what creates motion in space.

Unique to this technology is its ability to be designed for specific combination of ISP and thrust to optimize in-space transportation operations. Other space propulsion technologies are unable to be designed to operate at the same mix of ISP and thrust, resulting in each having its disadvantages for transportation missions. We view this technology as ground-breaking, as it can achieve considerable propulsive thrust level while maintaining high ISP, which enables a shorter duration of missions, an enhanced reach, and excellent payload mass ratio. As we continue to scale our vehicles towards larger and more capable vehicles, we expect this technology’s capabilities to scale well. The modifications will revolve around research and engineering to increase the size of the water tanks, radiation-hardening for our vehicles’ components, and further scaling our thruster technology. While these capabilities will require further development, we believe that our highly experienced team of engineers and rocket scientists and well-capitalized balance sheet will enable us to successfully enhance and scale our key technologies.

We chose water as our propellant for several reasons. Water is significantly safer than all chemical alternatives, which manifests itself in safe testing and associated operating cost savings across the entire testing chain. Beyond testing, water is a safe resource that will also be considerably safer in space than other sources that are exposed to such risks as accidental combustion, among others. Water can also be stored efficiently at low pressures and over temperature ranges that spacecraft equipment typically operates at. This avoids the need for high-pressure tanks which themselves pose an explosion hazard — either on the ground or in space due to micrometeoroid impact. Further, water’s abundance both on Earth and within the Solar System supports a continuously available propellant supply.

Another key advantage of our technology is its low cost of production and maintenance. Without sacrificing quality, we substituted much of the expensive componentry with more economical alternatives — optimizing the vehicle for transportation. Similarly, the componentry within the engine consists of inexpensive, readily available, and effective materials, resulting in an overall simple design and in a vehicle whose propulsion, structure, avionics, and mechanisms are efficiently and vertically integrated.

Our water plasma propulsion technology

Vehicle Overview

Since our founding in 2017, we have developed a comprehensive vehicle roadmap around our proprietary water plasma propulsion technology. Within each vehicle, the majority of the volume is allocated to holding the water propellant. We have incorporated the technology into our vehicles:

•        Vigoride:    Vigoride is our first developed vehicle. It is capable of carrying anywhere up to 750kg of customer payload into LEO. Its propulsion capabilities include a delta-v capability of up to 1 km/sec. Vigoride’s first commercial mission is planned to launch in January 2021, followed by launches in June 2021 and December 2021. For its first missions, Vigoride vehicles will be expendable, meaning they will be single-use

192

and re-enter the atmosphere upon delivery of customer payloads. We are aiming to achieve reusability by 2023, at which point the vehicles will remain in space to continue conducting missions.

•        Ardoride:    Ardoride will be our next vehicle. We are developing it to be capable of reaching beyond HEO orbit into Lunar Orbit with a customer payload up to 4,000 kg and delta-v capabilities of up to 5 km/sec. The first several Ardoride vehicles will also be expendable, but we expect to achieve reusability within the following year.

•        Fervoride:    Fervoride will be our third vehicle. It is expected to be capable of carrying up to 20,000 kg of customer payload anywhere from LEO to Deep Space, well beyond Lunar Orbit, and have delta-v capabilities of up to 7 km/sec. We expect to launch the first vehicle in 2025. We expect to launch Fervoride with reusability from its first commercial launch.

Summary of our current and future vehicles and vehicle capabilities

Our vehicles are designed with simplicity in mind. For example, most spacecraft use a set of motorized reaction wheels to orient and point the spacecraft while in space. These devices have moving bearings, motors, and drive electronics that must withstand the harsh space environment. As a result, they are expensive (typically around $100,000 to $500,000 each) and three are needed to provide full control of the satellite attitude. We chose instead to control the attitude of our vehicles with small steam thrusters which are made from a 3D-printed body containing the fluid channels, a simple heater element, and a control valve. This body uses the same water propellant as the main propulsion system, so it reuses the same storage, feed, and delivery systems. The cost of these thrusters is a few thousand dollars each — a fraction of the cost of the traditional reaction control system. We also make use of industrial and automotive-grade components and parts where possible. Our radiator panels (used to dissipate the heat generated by the thruster) are made from copper-water heat pipes used in terrestrial electronics embedded in a simple aluminum panel. A more traditional approach used for space radiators uses ammonia-filled heat pipes specifically designed for space applications. The low production volume of the ammonia pipes, in combination with the safety precautions needed for filling and testing, results in these parts costing 100 times the cost of mass-produced water heat pipes. These approaches of simplifying the design architecture and selecting suitable mass-production components are repeated throughout the design of the vehicle.

In addition to achieving reusability, we plan to continue expanding the capabilities of each of these vehicles. Together with our partners, such as Made In Space Europe, we anticipate incorporating additional instruments, including, but not limited to, robotic arms, onto the exterior of the spacecraft. Among other tasks, these instruments will enable our vehicles to repair satellites, handle communications, and conduct routine maintenance.

193

Table of Contents

Furthermore, we are designing each one of our vehicles to be compatible with most launch vehicles, such as SpaceX, Blue Origin, ILS, and Relativity. We anticipate such compatibility to promote healthy relationships with all providers, which will enable us to provide our customers with the most competitive pricing and with maximal flexibility. We look forward to adding more launch providers as they become available.

Scalable Manufacturing Process

We have internally developed our manufacturing, assembly, and testing processes, including capturing any related intellectual property generated in developing our vehicles and propulsion technology. The building or designing of critical components in-house rather than using existing technologies, such as chemical propulsion systems, provides for protectable and sustainable technology differentiation from competitors. Instead of relying on external resources to develop our propulsion technologies, we have developed these skills and capabilities internally, leveraging key hires’ expertise in the industry and establishing an advanced engineering team. We believe significant barriers to entry for competitors are the processes and know-how to manufacture an efficient, cheap, and effective water plasma propulsion thruster. Our manufacturing and assembly processes and knowledge are a key differentiator for us in the market. The product concept and design-for-manufacturing were considered as part of the product development process from the beginning of our product development.

We are also taking a different overall approach to technology development than is typically done in the space industry. Traditional spacecrafts are very expensive to manufacture, thereby burdening the cost of launch as well. The development process for such missions is typically very long and expensive because there traditionally has been no way to correct manufacturing errors once a spacecraft is launched into space. These processes extend into how the space industry develops core technologies. It is not uncommon for a development cycle for space technology to span five to 10 years or longer. We are using agile development processes that were created for the rapid technology cycles of terrestrial hardware. This allows us to very quickly bring technology from concept to prototype. From there, we adopt a more traditional space qualification process that exposes designs to simulated space environments. Unlike traditional space missions however, we have another tool at our disposal. We are not launching a single satellite for a single mission — we are launching a fleet of spacecraft to provide an end service. As such, we will have frequent flights of vehicles that will each perform a service over the span of a few months, and then be available for on-orbit demonstrations and tests of next-generation designs and hardware. This allows us to short-circuit some of the more difficult aspects of flight qualification which are associated with trying to accurately simulate the space environment (microgravity in particular), and instead actually fly hardware in space as an experiment, before baselining it into the next vehicle model.

Summary of historical and near-term development of our Vigoride vehicle

194

Table of Contents

We are approaching the anticipated launch of the first Vigoride vehicle in January 2021. We verified in mid-2019 that the MET thruster technology worked in space. This same MET thruster will fly in January 2021. We will also carry paying customers for this first demonstration mission. The customers’ payloads will be released into the launch injection orbit, and after the release of customers, Vigoride 1.0 will perform a series of in-orbit demonstration maneuvers. The Vigoride 1.0 spacecraft has completed its development and environmental testing and is currently in the process of integrating payloads before shipment to the launch base in December 2020.

Vigoride 2.0 is a larger, more capable model and will form the design basis for future Vigoride flights. It has a pair of up-sized thrusters (750 Watts each) and is a larger vehicle, capable of larger payload capacity. The development of the vehicle and systems is complete and we are planning environmental testing between December 2020 and March 2021. The vehicle build is on track for an June 2021 launch date. This first mission of Vigoride 2.0 will follow a similar hybrid commercial/demo model as Vigoride 1.0. The payload of customers on the June mission will mostly be released in the launch injection orbit. A few customers will have their payloads remain with Vigoride for a small altitude change maneuver, and then such payloads will be released. Vigoride will then conduct a series of maneuvers to fully demonstrate the full set of orbit changes that Vigoride will be required to perform for future missions.

The next mission of Vigoride 2.0 is expected to occur in September 2021. This mission is expected to be a full commercial mission with a mix of customers that will be released immediately after launch vehicle separation and customers that will be carried to custom orbits.

In December 2021, three to four vehicles are expected fly at once on the same Falcon 9 launch vehicle. Vigoride 2.1 will be a design evolution of Vigoride 2.0 targeting incremental cost improvements, improving mass optimization of the structure, and introducing a higher performance upgrade of the 750 Watt engine. Developments related to the engine have been underway since the second quarter of 2020 and are expected to be fully completed by the third quarter of 2021. The other incremental developments were initiated at the start of October 2020. Qualification of most systems is set to be complete by third quarter of 2021.

Summary of key subsystems development and tests

Customer Overview

As of November 1, 2020, we have signed contracts and options with prepaid deposits (some of which have already been exercised by customers) representing approximately $90 million in potential revenue. We have seen significant traction across a range of satellite operators, satellite manufacturers, government agencies and defense primes, satellite aggregators, launch providers, and others. The majority of our signed contracts are with early adopters. Several will be launching experimental or pathfinder missions for their future satellite constellations. The breadth of these signed contracts spans across more than 30 companies, representing 20 countries.

195

Table of Contents

We expect a portion of our larger pipeline, representing approximately $1.1 billion of potential contracts, to begin conversion following the successful execution of our near-term launches. We believe that our traction to date is driven by our highly attractive value proposition and direct marketing to potential customers.

Sales and Marketing

We plan to scale and accelerate our sales and marketing efforts and leverage industry partnerships to grow our customer base using a global network of sales professionals. Additionally, as we successfully execute on our upcoming missions, we expect existing customers to exercise contract options and expand their contracts with us for the deployment of their future satellites. New service offerings and sales models will be introduced over time to increase market share and grow the total addressable market for in-space infrastructure services.

In addition to satellite manufacturers, we are actively pursuing engagements with payload aggregators to maximize the fill rates of our missions. We are also working on long term partnership agreements with specialized CubeSat satellite makers to become their partner of choice for rideshare services, to realize a continuous cycle of returning customers. In addition, many rideshare aggregators are also satellite manufacturers that help create a vertical integration of services — with Momentus being the link to complete end-to-end service for their customers.

As a large percentage of the small satellite market is projected to be satellite constellations, and satellite constellations will require deployments, refreshing, in orbit maintenance and other services over their life-cycles (which are relatively short), we see this segment of the market as important. We currently have a number of pathfinder missions with customers that plan to develop satellite constellations after their test missions, and we are pursuing other satellite constellation customers who are in their early stages of development.

While we are focusing on our early adopter market for in-space transportation, we are at the early stages of also rolling out Satellite as a Service using our orbital vehicles and anticipate that this market segment will become a larger percentage of our business in the near and mid-term. Our potential customer base for this service has significant overlap with in-space transportation.

We anticipate the emergence of new businesses as the space economy continues to be unlocked and new applications are introduced. We plan to position ourselves to capture these emerging and adjacent markets that will be enabled by the development of infrastructure services.

Future Market Opportunities

In addition to the current space economy, we anticipate additional market opportunities, which could further unlock significant market opportunities. Some of the research and development costs associated with these “moonshot” opportunities have been accounted for in our financial model in research and development and capital expenditures; however, none of the upside has been captured to uphold our conservative financial approach. Some of the moonshots we project are as follows:

•        In-space data processing.    In space, producing energy from the sun could be up to 10 times more efficient per square unit than on Earth due to continual sun exposure. This energy can be produced efficiently through either traditional photovoltaic or solar thermal generation cycle. While there are multiple uses for such energy, we are especially interested in the application to massive in-space data centers, capable of processing of vast amounts data. According to a study by the University of California at Irvine, data centers accounted for 1 – 3% of all global energy consumption in 2019. We believe that much of this energy could be generated and used in these space data centers.

•        In-space renewable energy.    Similarly stemming from solar production, we believe that the massive amount of solar energy can be transferred to Earth. Gigantic solar power stations in geosynchronous orbit equipped with solar thermal technology could be capable of producing energy and beaming it in microwave form to large rectennas located in unpopulated parts of the planet. We believe that through this method, humanity could generate many orders of magnitude more energy in a zero-emission form.

196

Table of Contents

•        In-space mining.    Natural resources are abundant in space. Research has identified water on the Moon, Mars, and asteroids, as well as iron and nickel for primary construction materials, regolith for radiation shielding, and other precious metals. These are materials that could be mined and then used to create megastructures such as solar power generation centers and permanent human habitats in zero gravity directly in space. More relevant to our vehicles, we foresee water mining as a significant advantage to improving vehicle reusability, as it could simplify water sourcing for refueling. We are already supporting a NASA study related to extraterrestrial mining.

We see our vehicles playing instrumental roles in the parts supply, construction, maintenance, repairing, and orbital adjustments of these structures. In consideration of the existing and emerging markets and that of future moonshots, we strongly hold that we are key to the enabling of the next industrial revolution, the space revolution.

Unit Economics of our Business Models

•        Space Transportation Services.    Space transportation services are typically priced inclusive of the launch cost of the rocket and are offered as a price per kilogram. The end price to the customer is variable depending on the final orbit, Momentus vehicle, and required delta-velocity for the mission. Our biggest cost is typically the launch cost, which we pay to launch providers, such as SpaceX. We embedded the cost of manufacturing of the vehicle and labor into the price as well. The remaining represents our unit margins. We believe that we can manufacture vehicles efficiently and that the near-term manufacturing cost of our Vigoride vehicle will be approximately $1 million. In the near-term, our vehicles will be expendable, so all product and labor costs will be embedded in one vehicle. However, as we enhance our capabilities and begin to make our vehicles reusable over the span of 4 to 5 years, we will be able to amortize the production and labor costs of our vehicles over the vehicle’s life. As larger rockets and cheaper rockets come to market, we believe that we will recognize increased unit margins.

Illustration of Space Transportation unit economics

•        Satellite as a Service.    Our Satellite as a Service business model is expected to generate revenue in two ways. The first is with the launch and initial delivery of customers to their desired orbits, which represent the same unit economics as described above. For customers that remain attached to our vehicle, we will charge a recurring annual fee for providing the customer’s payload continual power, orbit keeping, orientation, and communication for the mission duration. We expect to charge less than $1 million per year for this service, however, the price will vary depending on the vehicle type and corresponding available power (1kW for Vigoride to 10kW for Ardoride and 100kW for Fervoride).

197

Table of Contents

•        In-Orbit Servicing.    Our In-Orbit Servicing business models will leverage the future reusability of our vehicles in tandem with capabilities that we are developing, such as situational focus and robotic capabilities. We plan to use our future vehicles to perform proximity maneuvers and berthing to provide in-orbit services such as inspection, refueling, life extension, re-positioning, salvage missions, maintenance and repair, and de-orbiting. We plan to charge customers for each in-orbit servicing operation, such as deorbiting, repositioning, or refueling.

Regulatory

Federal Communications Commission (“FCC”)

The regulations, policies, and guidance issued by the FCC apply to the operation of our transport vehicles. When we communicate with our transport vehicles using any part of the electromagnetic spectrum, we are operating a space station to which FCC regulations apply. Operators of regulated space stations are required to hold and maintain compliance with proper licenses throughout the duration of any given mission. Currently, we utilize the Special Temporary Authorization (“STA”) mechanism to license Momentus spacecraft. Momentus currently has two STA license applications pending with FCC. We expect the timely approval of each pending application or approval of another appropriate spectrum licensure and are engaged in planning activities for multiple future licenses.

The FCC recently enacted a new set of licensing guidelines for small satellites and related systems that may apply to future Momentus spacecraft. As a result, we may face a transition in license types from STA to the small satellite licensing guidelines. Additionally, the FCC is currently considering additional rules which could change the operational, technical and financial requirements for commercial space operators subject to U.S. jurisdiction. If these, proposed rules become final, they could change system design and financial costs in order to comply with or secure new Momentus spectrum licensure.

National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration

Momentus transport vehicles will operate with space-qualified photographic equipment installed. While primarily intended to function as mission assurance tools, these cameras will be capable of capturing incidental earth imagery while in orbit. As such, these cameras are subject to the licensing requirements and regulations of NOAA’s Commercial Report Sensing Regulatory Affairs office. We expect to have all such licenses approved in advance of current and future mission needs.

International Traffic in Arms Regulations (“ITAR”) and Export Controls

Our orbital infrastructure business is subject to, and we must comply with, stringent U.S. import and export control laws, including the ITAR and Export Administration Regulations (“EAR”) of the Bureau of Industry and Security of the U.S. Department of Commerce. The ITAR generally restricts the export of hardware, software, technical data, and services that have defense or strategic applications. The EAR similarly regulates the export of hardware, software, and technology that has commercial or “dual-use” applications (i.e., for both military and commercial applications) or that have less sensitive military or space-related applications that are not subject to the ITAR. The regulations exist to advance the national security and foreign policy interests of the U.S.

The U.S. government agencies responsible for administering the ITAR and the EAR have significant discretion in the interpretation and enforcement of these regulations. The agencies also have significant discretion in approving, denying, or conditioning authorizations to engage in controlled activities. Such decisions are influenced by the U.S. government’s commitments to multilateral export control regimes, particularly the Missile Technology Control Regime concerning the spaceflight business.

Many different types of internal controls and measures are required to ensure compliance with such export control rules. In particular, we are required to maintain registration under the ITAR; determine the proper licensing jurisdiction and classification of products, software, and technology; and obtain licenses or other forms of U.S. government authorizations to engage in activities, including the performance by foreign persons, related to and who support our spaceflight business. Under the ITAR, we must receive permission from the Directorate of Defense Trade Controls to release controlled technology to foreign person employees and other foreign persons.

198

Table of Contents

Currently, due to his status as a foreign person, Momentus’ Chief Executive Officer Mikhail Kokorich does not have access to certain detailed technical materials and specialized hardware considered to be export-controlled technology. The export-controlled hardware is located in various secured areas in Momentus’ facilities. Similarly, secure passwords are required to access export-controlled technical materials, in compliance with Momentus’ technology control plan. Mr. Kokorich is also excluded from in-depth technical discussions around implementation details of Momentus’ technology (or any other discussions of controlled material), and employees are trained to avoid any export-controlled discussions with Mr. Kokorich. Despite these restrictions, Momentus has not experienced any significant operational difficulties, as these detailed technical materials and specialized hardware do not require the attention of a Chief Executive Officer, and access to export-controlled materials and hardware is not essential for Mr. Kokorich to function in his role. Controlled activities are, under Mr. Kokorich’s strategic leadership, managed directly by other members of the Momentus executive team, many of whom have active U.S. Department of Defense personal security clearances and deep experience in the American aerospace and defense industry. In addition, notwithstanding the restrictions on Mr. Kokorich’s access to export-controlled materials, Momentus has been able to secure contracts with customers ranging from private space companies to established U.S. space industry entities such as NASA and Lockheed Martin. However, no assurance can be given that in the future Momentus’ operations will not be adversely affected due to Mr. Kokorich’s restricted access. See “Risk Factors — We are subject to stringent U.S. export and import control laws and regulations. Unfavorable changes in these laws and regulations or U.S. government licensing policies, our failure to secure timely U.S. government authorizations under these laws and regulations, or our failure to comply with these laws and regulations could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.” Mr. Kokorich is pursuing several paths to U.S. Person status, and we believe that he meets all of the legal requirements to be granted such status in the United States. Momentus is also continuing to pursue appropriate export licensure for Mr. Kokorich.

The inability to secure and maintain other necessary export authorizations could negatively impact our ability to compete successfully or to operate our spaceflight business as planned. For example, if we were unable to obtain or maintain our licenses to export certain spacecraft hardware, we would be effectively prohibited from launching our vehicles from certain non-U.S. locations, which would limit the number of launch providers we could use. In addition, if we were unable to obtain a Department of State Technical Assistance Agreement to export certain launch provider related services, we would experience difficulties or even be unable to perform integration activities necessary to safely our transfer vehicles to non-U.S. launch vehicles. In both cases, these restrictions could lead to higher launch costs which may have a material adverse impact on our results of operations. Similarly, if we were unable to secure effective export licensure to authorize the full scope of activity with a foreign partner or supplier, we may need to implement design changes to spacecraft or updates to our supplier chain, which may increase costs or result in delays in vehicle launch schedules.

Failure to comply with export control laws and regulations could expose us to civil or criminal penalties, fines, investigations, more onerous compliance requirements, loss of export privileges, debarment from government contracts, or limitations on our ability to enter into contracts with the U.S. government. In addition, any changes in export control regulations or U.S. government licensing policy, such as that necessary to implement U.S. government commitments to multilateral control regimes, may restrict our operations.

Human Capital

People are our most important asset. Since its inception, Momentus has sought to recruit creative, positive persons with a diverse set of business capabilities to play an integral role in building our company. As we move into the next stage of our growth, we are devoting more resources to our human capital and are building the infrastructure necessary to support our workforce and promote communication, respect, and diversity amongst our team. In particular, we are actively seeking a Human Resources lead to build that group and direct our initiatives into accomplishing this task as we are deeply committed to continuing to grow and develop our team.

As of September 30, 2020, we had 65 employees and since then we have added 26 employees. We have added 21 employees to our research and development and manufacturing teams, one employee to our sales and marketing team, and four employees to our G&A team, including our new Chief Financial Officer and President. Most of our employees bring significant experience from prior positions working for leading defense primes, satellite manufacturers, other commercial and military aerospace companies, and government agencies.

Facilities

We operate out of our headquarters in Santa Clara County, California. All of our facilities are leased from third-parties with whom we have a good relationship. We maintain approximately 13,000 square feet of administrative, research, manufacturing, and testing facilities at our campus in Santa Clara. The campus includes three buildings total, two of which consist of solely offices for administrative responsibilities, research and development, and another that consists of both offices and machinery for manufacturing and testing. These facilities are pursuant to agreements through which we lease under multi-year contracts.

Our current facilities are adequate for our current operating needs. However, we anticipate expanding our campus by leasing a larger facility around the Santa Clara area in 2021. This additional space will allow us to quickly ramp up production volumes for Vigoride vehicles and increase lab space to accelerate thruster and other developments to enhance Vigoride and develop the future Ardoride and Fervoride vehicle systems. The larger manufacturing floor will also accommodate the larger Ardoride vehicles and are expected support all of our manufacturing needs at least through 2024.

We plan to launch our orbital vehicles in partnership with various rocket providers, including SpaceX and Relativity Space, among others. Our rocket launch partners will provide the necessary land, facility, and machinery to successfully complete the launches. We are not responsible for the launch materials necessary to execute blast-offs.

Legal Proceedings

It is possible that from time to time, we may be subject to various claims, lawsuits, and other legal and administrative proceedings that may arise in the ordinary course of business. Some of these claims, lawsuits, and other proceedings may range in complexity and result in substantial uncertainty; it is possible that they may result in damages, fines, penalties, non-monetary sanctions, or relief. However, we do not consider any such claims, lawsuits, or proceedings currently pending, individually or in the aggregate, to be material to our business or likely to result in a material adverse effect on our future operating results, financial condition, or cash flows.

Overview

Momentus is a first mover in offering in-space infrastructure services and we believe that we will be key to building out the tools, infrastructure and services that will be important to enable the commercialization of space. We are creating the first hub and spoke model in space by offering last mile delivery in partnership with key launch providers, such as SpaceX, to offer a range of in-space services, including Space Transportation, Satellite-as-a-Service and In-orbit Services. Our vehicles will be equipped with our in-house designed groundbreaking water plasma propulsion technology. We believe that this technology will enable us to deliver fast, versatile and cost-effective services to our clients. We are confident that our highly experienced team of entrepreneurs, engineers, and operations managers will position us to be a market leader in the development of the new space economy. Since our founding in 2017, we have successfully tested our water plasma propulsion technology in space, signed contracts worth approximately $90 million (as of November 1, 2020) in potential revenue, and have continued to develop and enhance our technology and space vehicles. Our first launch with customers is anticipated to occur in January 2021.

Our services are made possible by the rapid technological developments in the space industry over the past two decades, driven predominantly by significant decreases in launch costs, as well as the advent of smaller, lower-cost satellites. This convergence of trends has resulted in substantial growth in the commercial space market, rooted in higher accessibility for companies entering the new space economy that aim to offer communication, earth observation, data collection services, and other satellite services. We anticipate the space transportation and small satellite market to be drivers of growth in the short-term as satellite technology drives smaller and cheaper satellites and increasing numbers of satellite constellations continue to emerge.

We are designing our vehicles to be compatible with most launch vehicles to maximize flexibility and competition within our supply chain. Pairing this competitive advantage with our competitive pricing, transportation efficiency, and our partnerships, we believe that we will play a key role in driving the industrialization and commercialization of space.

Services Overview

Taking advantage of the efficiency and low cost of our water plasma propulsion technology, we are developing our vehicles to provide the following infrastructure services to the space economy:

Space Transportation.    We are designing our space transportation service based on a hub and spoke model. When the time for launch approaches, our customers send us their payload a few months in advance for integration onto our vehicle. Once their payload has been integrated into our vehicle, our vehicle will then be prepared for launch. We will then incorporate our vehicle, holding the customer’s payload fixture, into the payload of the rocket. The rocket will then transport our vehicle to the drop-off orbit. At this point after separation from the rocket, we will initiate delivery to the customer’s final orbit. Using our water plasma thrusters, the vehicle will transport each customer payload to its respective orbit. Initially, after delivering our customer payloads to their final orbits, our vehicles will deorbit. However, we anticipate our vehicles will have reusability capabilities, starting in 2023, such that, upon delivery of the payload, they will be capable of remaining in space to conduct further missions.

Satellite as a Service (Hosted Payloads).    Our Satellite as a Service model is designed to reduce our customers’ cost of manufacturing, transporting, and maintaining satellites. In other words, once a customer payload is attached, our vehicles will move the payload to the desired orbit and remain attached to the hosted payload to provide continuous power, orbit-maintenance, orientation, and communications to support telemetry, commanding and downlinking of payload data for the duration of the mission.

In-Orbit Servicing.    In-orbit servicing of satellites is a quickly growing business opportunity. As the number of satellites in space increases, so does their need to be serviced. We are designing Momentus’ future reusable vehicles to be capable of performing in-orbit servicing. They will be equipped with robotic arms and have capabilities for proximity maneuvering and berthing. Eventually, this will enable us to offer a suite of different in-orbit services, such as inspection, refueling, life extension, re-positioning, salvage missions, maintenance and repair, and de-orbiting.

Factors Affecting Our Performance

We believe that our performance and future success depend to a substantial extent on our ability to capitalize on the following opportunities, which in turn is subject to significant risks and challenges, including those discussed below and in the section of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus titled “Risk Factors.”

In-Space Transport and Service Vehicles and Related Technology Development

Our primary research and development objectives focus on the development of our existing and future in-space transfer and service vehicles and related water plasma propulsion technology:

•        Vigoride is our first vehicle. It is capable of carrying up to 750 kg of customer payload into Low Earth Orbit (“LEO”). Its propulsion capabilities include a delta-v capability of up to 1 km/sec. Vigoride’s first commercial mission is planned to launch in January 2021, followed by launches in June 2021, and December 2021.

•        Ardoride will be our next vehicle. We are developing it to be capable of reaching beyond High Earth Orbit (“HEO”) orbit into Lunar Orbit with a customer payload of up to 4,000 kg. The vehicle will have a delta-v capabilities of 3 - 5 km/sec. We expect to launch the first vehicle in 2023.

•        Fervoride will be our third vehicle. It will be capable of carrying up to 20,000 kg of customer payload anywhere from LEO to Deep Space. The vehicle will have delta-v capabilities of up to 7 km/sec. We expect to launch the first vehicle in 2025.

The successful development of our vehicles with water plasma propulsion technology involves uncertainties, including:

•        timing in finalizing systems design and specifications;

•        meeting stated technological objectives and goals for the design on time, on budget and on within target cost objectives;

•        successful completion of test programs;

202

Table of Contents

•        our ability to obtain additional applicable approvals, licenses or certifications from regulatory agencies, if required, and maintaining current approvals, licenses or certifications;

•        performance of our third-party contractors that support our research and development activities;

•        our ability to maintain rights from third parties for intellectual properties critical to research and development activities; and

•        our ability to continue funding and maintaining our current research and development activities.

A change in the outcome of any of these variables could delay the development of our vehicles which in turn could impact our business and results of operations.

Initial and Successive Launches

Using our water plasma propulsion technology, we are seeking to provide safe, affordable, reliable, and regular in-space services, including Space Transportation, Satellite as a Service, and In-Orbit Servicing. To accomplish this, we intend to:

Launch our commercial program for in-space transportation.    In June 2019, we conducted our first in-space test of our water plasma propulsion technology. We plan to launch our first official commercial flight in January 2021. Our first commercial flights will serve a dual purpose in deploying customer satellites and testing in-space orbital maneuvers. We plan to offer full orbital transfer, with our “hub and spoke” model, as part of our commercial flights in the second half of 2021.

Launch our commercial program for Satellite as a Service.    Using our vehicles, we plan to substitute certain satellite hardware, including, but not limited to, solar panels and communication devices, and host satellite payloads directly in space.

Launch our commercial program for In-Orbit Servicing.    We plan to offer a suite of different services to our clients. Such services may include inspection, refueling, life extension, re-positioning, salvage missions, maintenance and repair and de-orbiting. As the quantity of small satellites sent into space continues to increase, we anticipate high demand from satellite carriers seeking to, among other things, extend the life of their satellites or re-purpose them.

The success of our in-space infrastructure services business will depend on our ability to successfully and regularly deploy customer satellites into their custom orbits. Our mission planned for January 2021 will be a demonstration mission in which our vehicle will deploy client satellites into orbit for the first time. In this inaugural mission, we expect to demonstrate Vigoride’s ability to deploy satellites at the point at which Vigoride is dropped off by the launch vehicle and to perform certain maneuvers after deployment. We do not expect to deliver client satellites to custom orbits until the second half of 2021 at the earliest.

While we have built operational processes to ensure that the design, manufacture, performance and servicing of our in-space vehicles meet rigorous performance goals, there can be no assurance that we will not experience operational or process failures and other problems during our inaugural mission or on any other mission. Any failures or setbacks, particularly on our inaugural mission, could harm our reputation and have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operation.

Customer Demand

Ahead of our first commercial launch occurring in January 2021, we have received significant interest from a wide breadth of different customers. As of September 30, 2020, our current backlog consists of a broad array of different customers, including defense primes, aerospace companies, private satellite providers, government agencies, and research organizations, among others. While we have not recognized any revenue through September 30, 2020, we had, as of November 1, 2020, signed contracts representing approximately $90 million of potential revenue and have collected approximately $2.4 million in customer deposits related to these future launches. The breadth of these signed contracts spans across more than 20 companies. These agreements also contain options, allowing customers to opt-in to launches on shorter notice without requiring a separate agreement. However, these contracts are cancellable by customers for convenience. If a customer cancels a contract before it is required to pay non-refundable deposits beginning nine months prior to launch, we may not receive revenue from these orders, except for an initial deposit which is paid at the time the contract is signed.

203

Table of Contents

In addition, our backlog is typically subject to large variations from quarter to quarter and comparisons of our backlog from period to period are not necessarily indicative of future revenues. The contracts comprising our backlog may not result in actual revenue in any particular period or at all, and the actual revenue from such contracts may differ from our backlog estimates. The timing of receipt of revenues, if any, on projects included in our backlog could change because many factors affect the scheduling of missions. Adjustments to contracts may also occur. The failure to realize all amounts in our backlog could adversely affect our revenues and gross margins.

In addition, many of our customer contracts are with smaller customers for missions scheduled one or two years in the future. Some of these customers may be unable to meet their payment obligations when the bulk of their payments become due starting from nine months prior to launch, which may adversely affect our financial condition and operating results.

Our pipeline consists of $1.1 billion in potential contracts in negotiation or in early discussion. We remain in active discussions with potential customers and anticipate a considerable increase in customer demand as the small satellite and constellation markets continue to develop. Additionally, our backlog and pipeline mostly represent the initial test and demonstration flights of our customers’ constellations, and we expect that following the successful delivery of service on our first several flights, the majority of our customers will continue to use us on the further rollout of their constellations.

COVID-19 Impact

While the COVID-19 pandemic has affected our business and our timeline for our formerly planned launch in April, to date, it has not impacted us in a way that will materially affect our future growth outlook.

Initially, we had a commercial launch scheduled for April of this year aboard a Soyuz rocket. However, after the onset of the pandemic, we opted to delay the launch. After further delays from the launch provider, we decided to reschedule the launch with a different provider, SpaceX, with whom we expect to launch in January 2021. Among other factors, this decision was partially due to SpaceX’s rideshare program becoming available earlier than expected a separate factor from the pandemic that better aligns with our current operations.

As of the date of this accompanying proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, we and SpaceX remain on track for our first commercial launch in January 2021, aboard a Falcon 9 and do not foresee any delays due to COVID-19. The same applies to launches scheduled for remainder of 2021 and further.

We do not believe our contract pipeline has been materially negatively affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. In fact, we have managed to grow our customer backlog by over 40% since the onset of the pandemic. Additionally, we have also had existing customers exercise their options to opt into launches for 2021 and 2022, bringing some of our scheduled 2021 rides close to maximum capacity. We do not anticipate that the COVID-19 pandemic will materially affect our customer backlog and ability to secure new contracts going forward.

Our non-operations personnel began working from home in March 2020, while we reduced our in-person operations to prioritize the safety of our employees. This has inherently affected our manufacturing and development timelines, but not in a material way that would affect the timeline of future launches. Going forward, we intend to continue to gradually bring essential personnel back to the office, while strictly adhering to CDC, federal, and state protective standards. We are supportive of our employees working from home and believe that they remain productive. Upon discovery of an effective treatment, we intend to gradually bring all employees back to the office; until then, we will continue to support working from home.

In May 2020, to strengthen our liquidity position, we received a Paycheck Protection Program loan (“PPP Loan”) in the amount of $970,000 under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”); however, we have since repaid the PPP Loan in full.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations and overall financial performance will ultimately depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the pandemic and the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. See the section of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus titled “Risk Factors” for additional discussion of the potential impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on our business.

Components of Results of Operations

Research and Development

Research and development expenditures consist primarily of the following costs for developing existing and future technologies for our vehicles. Research and development activities include basic research, applied research, design, development, and related test program activities. Costs incurred for developing our vehicles primarily include equipment, material, and labor hours (both internal and subcontractors)

As of September 30, 2020, we have expensed all research and development costs associated with developing and building our vehicles. Once we have achieved technological feasibility and released the design for volume production, we will capitalize the costs to construct any additional components for the vehicles. We expect to continue to see an increase in our research and development expenses as we develop our next generation of vehicles.

Selling, General and Administrative

Selling, general and administrative expenses consist of human capital related expenses for employees involved in general corporate functions, including executive management and administration, accounting, finance, tax, legal, information technology, sales, marketing, and human resources; depreciation expense and rent relating to facilities, and equipment; professional fees; and other general corporate costs. Human capital expenses primarily include salaries, bonuses, equity compensation expense and benefits. As we continue to grow as a company, we expect that our selling, general and administrative costs will increase on an absolute dollar basis.

We also expect to incur additional expenses as a result of operating as a public company, including expenses necessary to comply with the rules and regulations applicable to companies listed on a national securities exchange and related to compliance and reporting obligations pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Interest Income

Interest income consists of interest earned on investment holdings in interest bearing bank accounts.

Interest Expense

Interest expense consists of beneficial conversion features (“BCFs”) embedded in our Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”) notes, recognized upon conversion of SAFE notes. Interest expense also includes interest incurred related to our loan payables as well as the amortization of warrant discount and debt issuance costs.

Other Income/Expense

Other income/expense relates to the change in fair value of our SAFE notes.

Income Tax Provision

We are subject to income taxes in the United States. Our income tax provision consists of an estimate of federal and state income taxes based on enacted federal and state tax rates, as adjusted for allowable credits, deductions, uncertain tax positions, changes in the valuation of our deferred tax assets and liabilities, and changes in tax laws.

The effective tax rate may vary significantly from period to period and can be influenced by many factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes to the statutory rates in the jurisdictions where the Company has operations and changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities. The difference between the effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily relates to certain nondeductible items, state and local income taxes and a full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

Nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2019.    The increase was primarily due to costs incurred to develop our vehicles, including equipment, material, and payroll expenses. Headcount related costs increased by $3.1 million (includes $0.1 million increase in non-cash share based compensation expense), as we increased our research and development employee headcount from 30 full time employees to 46 full time employees to support the ramp up of research and development efforts in building our vehicles. Materials, components, and other research and development costs increased by $3.1 million. We also incurred a $0.9 million increase in consulting expenses in comparison to the same period in the prior year.

Year ended December 31, 2019 compared to year ended December 31, 2018.    The increase was primarily due to costs incurred to develop our vehicles, including equipment, material, and payroll expenses. Headcount related costs increased by $1.8 million (includes 25 thousand increase in non-cash share based compensation expense), as we increased our research and development employee headcount from 6 full time employees to 32 full time employees to support the ramp up of research and development efforts in building our vehicles. Materials, components, and other research and development costs increased by $2.7 million. We also incurred a $2.9 million increase in consulting expenses in comparison to the same period in the prior year.

Nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to nine months ended September 30, 2019.    This increase was generally associated with higher corporate expenses as we continued to build out our corporate functions prior to the start of commercial operations. Headcount related costs increased by $2.6 million as we increased our employee headcount from 7 full time corporate employees to 18 full time employees. We incurred a $1.2 million non-recurring share based compensation expense associated with employee stock option modifications related to severance arrangements; other consulting expenses increased by $0.5 million. We also had an increase in other professional services of $1.1 million related to a non-recurring charge associated with SAFE note fundraising.

Year ended December 31, 2019 compared to year ended December 31, 2018.    This increase was generally associated with higher corporate expenses as we continue to grow our operations. Headcount related costs increased by $1.6 million (includes $0.1 million increase in non-cash share based compensation expense), as we increased our employee headcount from 2 full time corporate employees to 17 full time employees; other consulting expenses increased by $0.1 million. Legal and other professional services increased by $0.6 million; we also had increases in recruiting expense ($0.2 million), information technology and general office expense ($0.4 million), travel expenses ($0.3 million) and depreciation and amortization expense ($0.2 million).

Income Tax Expense

Income tax expense was less than $1,000 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. We have accumulated net operating losses at the federal and state level as we have not yet started commercial operations. We maintain a substantially full valuation allowance against our net deferred tax assets. The income tax expenses shown above are primarily related to minimum state filing fees in the states where we have operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Since inception, we have financed our operations primarily by issuing equity and debt, including convertible notes issued in 2017 and 2018 and SAFE notes issued in 2018 and 2019, which were later converted into preferred stock and SAFE notes issued in 2020. As of September 30, 2020, our principal sources of liquidity were our cash and cash equivalents in the amount of $36.7 million, which are primarily invested in highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less.

We expect that our principal sources of liquidity following the Business Combination and the PIPE will be our cash and cash equivalents and any additional capital we may obtain through borrowings or additional sales of our equity securities.

Operating Activities

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $21.1 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $126.3 million decreased by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.8 million and non-cash charges of $106.1 million. The change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to increases in prepaids and other current assets, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities, offset by decreases in other receivables and other non-current assets. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of changes in the fair values of the SAFE notes, whose values increased primarily by increases in the fair value of the Company’s stock.

Net cash used in operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 was $10.8 million, consisting of a net loss of $9.6 million, increased by changes in operating assets and liabilities of $2.0 million and decreased by non-cash items of $0.8 million. The change in operating assets and liabilities was primarily due to increases in prepaids and other current assets and accounts payable. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and interest expense related to the BCFs of the SAFE notes.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2019 was $16.8 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $15.8 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $1.9 million and non-cash charges of $0.9 million. The changes in working capital were primarily due to advanced payments for components and materials used in research and development and launch service provider fees. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and interest expense related to the BCFs of the SAFE notes.

Net cash used in operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2018 was $3.9 million, consisting primarily of a net loss of $6.2 million and changes in operating assets and liabilities of $0.3 million and non-cash charges of $2.6 million. The changes in working capital were primarily due to advanced payments for components and materials used in research and development and launch service provider fees, partially offset by an increase in deferred revenue. The non-cash charges primarily consisted of depreciation, amortization, stock-based compensation, and interest expense related to the BCFs of the SAFE notes.

We expect our expenses to increase substantially in connection with our ongoing activities, particularly as we continue to advance the development of our vehicles, build corporate infrastructure and enhance our sales and marketing functions. As we continue to develop our vehicle capabilities, expand our fleet of vehicles with the development of the Ardoride and Fervoride vehicles and expand our manufacturing footprint and capabilities, we estimate spending approximately $800 million in research and development and approximately $120 million in capital expenditures over the next seven years. In addition, we expect cost of revenue to increase significantly as we commence commercial operations.

Specifically, our operating expenses will increase as we:

•        scale up our corporate infrastructure, people, processes and systems;

•        enhance and scale our sales and marketing function;

•        scale up our manufacturing capabilities increasing facility footprint, purchasing additional manufacturing equipment;

•        pursue further research and development related to developing our next generation vehicles;

•        seek regulatory approvals for changes or updates to our vehicles;

•        hire additional personnel; and

•        maintain, expand and protect our intellectual property portfolio.

Over the next 36 months, we expect that our current cash and cash equivalents, the additional cash and cash equivalents we receive upon the consummation of the Business Combination and the PIPE, and our projected gross profit (revenue less cost of goods sold) of approximately $350 million from 2021 to 2023 will enable us to fund an anticipated $290 million of operating expenses, research and development expenses and capital expenditures during this three-year period. Beyond the next 36 months, based on our current pipeline and profitability forecast, we believe that our revenue and cash flow from operations will be sufficient to fund ongoing expenses and development investments of the business. Additionally, we believe that the payments in the form of non-refundable deposits we receive from our customers prior to launch will provide sufficient funding and liquidity ahead of each mission.

We have based these estimates on assumptions that may prove to be wrong, and we could utilize our available capital resources sooner than we expect. Additionally, changing circumstances may cause us to expend capital significantly faster than we currently anticipate, and we may need to spend more money than currently expected because of circumstances beyond our control. We may be required to seek additional equity or debt financing. In the event that additional financing is required from outside sources, we may not be able to raise it on terms acceptable to us, or at all. If we are unable to raise additional capital when desired, our business, results of operations, and financial condition would be adversely affected.

The research and development, volume production, launch and in orbit operation of our vehicles have unpredictable costs and are subject to significant risks, uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are beyond our control, that may affect the timing and magnitude of these anticipated expenditures. Some of these risks and uncertainties are described in more detail in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus under the heading “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Momentus Inc.’s Business.”

We are a party to operating leases primarily for facilities (e.g., office buildings, warehouses and spaceport) under non-cancellable operating leases. These leases expire at various dates through 2022.

In March 2020, we entered into an equipment financing agreement to fund the acquisition of specific and eligible equipment. The financing agreement provides us with access to borrow up to $4.5 million. Repayment of any amounts loaned under the facility are scheduled over 30 months. Interest under the agreement is fixed at 9.75% per annum and borrowings may be prepaid as long as we provide written notice to the lender 10 business days prior to the prepayment and we pay (a) all accrued and unpaid interest on the equipment loan as of the date of prepayment; plus (b) an amount equal to the total amount of all scheduled but unpaid payments of principal; plus (c) an amount equal to all interest that would have accrued on the equipment loan from the date of prepayment through the last scheduled payment. We are also obligated to pay a final amount equivalent to 5 percent of the original principal amount of the loan. The borrowings are collateralized by all the equipment financed by the lender. As of September 30, 2020, the outstanding borrowings under this agreement were $1.4 million. Pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement, we expect to terminate the financing agreement, and for all amounts thereunder to be repaid, as of the closing of the Business Combination.

In May 2020, we received a PPP Loan in the amount of $970,000 which we repaid in full in September 2020. The loan was issued under the CARES Act. The PPP Loan bore interest at 1.0% per annum.

Purchase obligations include purchase orders and agreements with a total term exceeding one year, to purchase goods or services that are enforceable, legally binding, and where the significant terms and minimum purchase obligations are stipulated.

In addition, we enter into agreements in the normal course of business with vendors for research and development services and outsourced services, which are generally cancellable upon written notice. These payments are not included in this table of contractual obligations.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We do not engage in any off-balance sheet activities or have any arrangements or relationships with unconsolidated entities, such as variable interest, special purpose, and structured finance entities.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements and

210

Table of Contents

related disclosures requires us to make estimates, assumptions and judgments as of the balance sheet date that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, costs and expenses and related disclosures. We believe that the estimates, assumptions and judgments involved in the accounting policies described below have the greatest potential impact on our financial statements and, therefore, we consider these to be our critical accounting policies. Accordingly, we evaluate our estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions and conditions.

Revenue Recognition

We enter into short-term contracts for ‘last-mile’ satellite and cargo delivery, payload hosting and in-orbit servicing options with customers that are primarily in the aerospace industry. From inception to September 30, 2020, we have not completed a commercial launch of customer cargo and as a result, have not recognized revenue to date. However, as of September 30, 2020 we have signed contracts with customers and have collected approximately $2.4 million in customer deposits, which are recorded as current and non-current contract liabilities in our balance sheet and will be recognized as revenue (along with any other fess that have been paid) upon the earlier of the satisfaction of our performance obligation or when the customer cancels the contract. There are no refund or recourse provisions that enable our customers to recover any non-refundable fees that are paid.

We account for customer contracts in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which includes the following five-step model:

•        Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer.

•        Identification of the performance obligations in the contract.

•        Determination of the transaction price.

•        Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

•        Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

Our contracts are cancellable for convenience by the customer and typically do not contain variable consideration. However, the full transaction price is collected in advance of the scheduled launch and all fees that are paid are non-refundable (and are not limited to deposits), regardless if the contract is cancelled by the customer or in the event a performance obligation is not satisfied by us.

Our services are considered a single performance obligation, to transport the customers’ payload to a specified orbit in space. We recognize revenue at a point in time when control is transferred, which is considered to be upon the release of the customers’ payload into its specified orbit. We will calculate the weight distribution of each transfer vehicle at the customer level, and we will estimate the delivery date for each customer’s payload based on the relative weight of payloads released to determine the point in time to recognize revenue for each payload release.

In periods in which we recognize revenue, we will disclose the amounts of revenue recognized that was included as a contract liability balance at the beginning of the reporting period in accordance with ASC 606-10-50-8(b).

Deferred Fulfillment and Prepaid Launch Costs

We prepay for certain launch costs to third party providers that will carry the transport vehicle to orbit. Prepaid costs allocated to the delivery of a customers’ payload are classified as deferred fulfillment costs and recognized as cost of revenue upon delivery of the customers’ payload. Prepaid costs allocated to our payload are classified as prepaid launch costs and are amortized to research and development expense upon the release of our payload. The allocation is determined based on the distribution between customer and out payload weight on each launch.

Contract Liabilities

Customer deposits collected prior to the release of the customers’ payload into its specified orbit are recorded as current and non-current contract liabilities in our balance sheet as the amounts received represent a prepayment for the satisfaction of a future performance obligation that has not yet commenced. Each non-refundable deposit is determined to be a contract liability upon cash collection. Prior to making this determination, we ensure that a valid contract is in place that meets the definition of the existence of a contract in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-1 and 2.

Stock-based Compensation

We have a stock incentive plan under which incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards are granted to employees, directors, and consultants. All stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options are recognized in the financial statements based on their respective grant date fair values.

We recognize stock-based compensation expense using a fair value-based method for costs related to all stock-based payments. We estimate the fair value of stock-based payments on the date of grant using the Black Scholes Merton option pricing model. The model requires management to make a number of assumptions, including expected volatility of our stock, expected life of the option, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. The fair value of the stock is expensed over the related service period which is typically the vesting period. The stock-based compensation expense that is reported in our financial statements is based on awards that are expected to vest. We account for forfeitures as they occur.

Estimating the fair value of equity awards as of the grant date using valuation models, such as the Black-Scholes option pricing model, is affected by assumptions regarding a number of variables as disclosed above, and any changes in the assumptions can materially affect the fair value and ultimately how much stock-based compensation expense is recognized. These inputs are subjective and generally require significant analysis and judgment to develop. See Note 9 in our audited financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus for the specific assumptions we used in applying the Black-Scholes option pricing model to determine the estimated fair value of our stock options and awards granted in the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 and Note 10 in our condensed interim financial statements for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

We expect our share-based compensation cost will increase to the extent that we grant additional stock option awards to employees and nonemployees. If there are any modifications or cancellations of the underlying unvested securities, we may be required to accelerate any remaining unearned share-based compensation cost or incur incremental cost. Share-based compensation cost affects our research and development expenses and selling, general, and administrative expenses.

SAFE Notes

We issued SAFE notes to investors. The SAFE notes provide the investors to the right to certain shares of the Company’s capital stock upon an equity financing. We determined that the SAFE notes are not legal form debt (i.e., no creditors’ rights). The SAFE notes include a provision allowing for cash redemption upon the consummation of a change of control, the occurrence of which is outside the control of the Company. Therefore, we classified SAFE notes as liabilities as they are redeemable upon a change of control event which is not within the control of the Company. SAFE notes are recorded at fair value, and subject to remeasurement through earnings at each balance sheet date until the date of their respective settlement and classified as marked-to-market liabilities pursuant to ASC 480.

We determined the fair value of the SAFE notes applying a Backsolve method within the Black Scholes Option Pricing model. This methodology effectively allowed us to solve for the implied value of the business based on the terms of the SAFE investments (i.e. what is the value of the company, such that when distributed to the various securities, the value allocated to the SAFE investment equals the price the investor just paid for such SAFE instrument). Significant judgement is required in estimating the fair value of the SAFE notes, if factors change, and we utilize different assumptions, the fair value of our SAFE notes could change significantly.

Income Taxes

We account for income taxes in accordance with authoritative guidance, which requires the use of the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rate expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the differences are expected to be reversed.

212

Table of Contents

Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, management considers all available evidence, including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies.

In the event that management changes its determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, we will adjust our valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

We are required to evaluate the tax positions taken in the course of preparing its tax returns to determine whether tax positions are “more likely than not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the “more likely than not” threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The amount recognized is subject to estimate and management judgment with respect to the likely outcome of each uncertain tax position. The amount that is ultimately sustained for an individual uncertain tax position or for all uncertain tax positions in the aggregate could differ from the amount that is initially recognized.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

From time to time, new accounting pronouncements are issued by the FASB or other standard setting bodies that are adopted by us as of the specified effective date. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently issued standards that are not yet effective will not have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations under adoption.

Please refer to Note 2 in our financial statements included elsewhere in this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus for a description of recently adopted accounting pronouncements and recently issued accounting pronouncements not yet adopted, the timing of their adoptions and our assessment, to the extent we have made one, of their potential impact on our financial condition and results of operations.

Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

We are exposed to a variety of market and other risks, including the effects of changes in interest rates, inflation, and foreign currency exchange rates, as well as risks to the availability of funding sources, hazard events, and specific asset risks.

Interest Rate Risk

The market risk inherent in our financial instruments and our financial position represents the potential loss arising from adverse changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2020, we had cash and cash equivalents of $36.7 million, which are primarily invested in highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less. However, due to the short-term maturities and the low-risk profile of our investments, an immediate 10% change in interest rates would not have a material effect on the fair market value of our cash and cash equivalents.

Foreign Currency Risk

There was no material foreign currency risk for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Currently, a significant portion of our expenses are generated in U.S. dollars.

Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed by, or under the supervision of, that company’s principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, and influenced by that company’s board of directors, management and other personnel, to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with policies or procedures may deteriorate.

213

Table of Contents

In connection with the audit of our combined financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, we identified material weaknesses and significant deficiencies in our internal control over financial reporting. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.

The material weaknesses relate to the lack of timely preparation of proper financial close and account reconciliation processes, missed accruals and improper accounting for stock issuance costs. The significant deficiencies relate to inadequate evidence to properly support account balances. These material weaknesses and significant deficiencies may not allow for us to have a timely reporting process as well as errors reported in our reporting process.

We have begun the process of, and we are focused on, designing and implementing effective internal controls measures to improve our internal control over financial reporting and remediate the material weaknesses and significant deficiencies. Our efforts include a number of actions:

•        We are designing and implementing additional review procedures within our accounting and finance department to provide more robust and comprehensive internal controls over financial reporting that address the financial statement assertions and risks of material misstatement within our business processes including implementing a comprehensive closing process checklist with additional layers of reviews.

•        We are establishing a more formal process to review and ensure proper cut-off and classification of expenses, including those related to legal expenses incurred by the Company.

•        We are designing a more formal process to properly review and document evidence to support account balances.

•        We are also actively recruiting additional personnel, in addition to engaging and utilizing third party consultants and specialists to supplement our internal resources business processes.

While these actions and planned actions are subject to ongoing management evaluation and will require validation and testing of the design and operating effectiveness of internal controls over a sustained period of financial reporting cycles, we are committed to the continuous improvement of our internal control over financial reporting and will continue to diligently review our internal control over financial reporting.

Notwithstanding the material weaknesses and significant deficiencies, our management has concluded that the financial statements included elsewhere in proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus present fairly, in all material respects, our balance sheets, statement of operations, statements of stockholders’ equity, and statement of cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented, in conformity with GAAP.

CERTAIN MOMENTUS RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

Common Stock Purchase Agreements

In October 2017, Spatial Venture Partners A, L.P. purchased 500,000 shares of the Momentus Class A common stock for an aggregate purchase price of $150,000. Spatial Ventures is controlled by Mr. Kokorich, the co-founder of Momentus, and all of its limited partnership interests are held by Mr. Kokorich and his wife.

Convertible Note Financings

In May 2018, Momentus issued a convertible promissory note to Nortrone Finance S.A. in exchange for $200,000 (the “Nortrone Note”). Nortrone Finance S.A. is owned by Mikhail Kokorich and his wife.

Series Seed Financing

In November 2018, Nortrone Finance S.A. acquired 2,926,943 shares of Momentus’ Series Seed Preferred Stock upon the conversion and cancellation of the Nortrone Note as part of the Momentus’ Series Seed equity financing.

Agreements with Supplier and Service Provider

In 2018 and 2019, Momentus entered into consulting, design and construction services agreements with a supplier and service provider of which Mr. Kokorich was a shareholder at the time the agreements were entered into and remained a shareholder until October 2020. Pursuant to these agreements with Momentus, the supplier and service provider received payments in 2018, 2019 and 2020 totaling approximately $1.15 million, $1.95 million and $600,000, respectively.

Agreements with Commercial Partner

In June 2018, Momentus entered into a Technology and Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement with a commercial partner, pursuant to which the commercial partner received payments totaling approximately $180,000 in 2019. Mr. Kokorich was a shareholder in the commercial partner at the time the agreement was entered into but is not currently a shareholder.

In January 2019, the commercial partner received a Warrant to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Momentus’ Class A Common Stock. Mr. Kokorich was a shareholder in the commercial partner at the time the warrant was issued.

Repurchase Agreement

At the Closing, PML, Momentus and SRAC will enter into the Repurchase Agreement pursuant to which, amongst other things, SRAC has agreed to repurchase a certain number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock from PML, at a purchase price of $10.00 per share, immediately following the Closing (the “Repurchase”). Dakin Sloss, one of Momentus’ current directors is the manager of an entity that controls PML. The Repurchase is contingent on the amount of available cash SRAC has at the Closing from (a) the PIPE Investment (and any alternative financing arranged by SRAC and Momentus in the event the PIPE Investment becomes unavailable) and (b) the funds in the Trust Account (after taking into account payments required to satisfy SRAC’s Share Redemptions), after further deducting the amount of SRAC’s transaction expenses and Momentus’ transaction expenses (“Net Proceeds”) being in excess of $265 million. If Net Proceeds exceed $265 million but are less than $280 million, the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to the Repurchase will be equal to the amount by which Net Proceeds exceed $250 million, divided by $10.00. In the event Net Proceeds are in excess of $280 million, the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock subject to the Repurchase will be equal to $30 million, divided by $10.00. At the closing of the Repurchase, SRAC will be entitled to deduct from such cash payment an amount equal to 3.3% of such cash payment (representing PML’s obligation to pay Momentus a portion of its transaction expenses).

Support Agreement

For a detailed description of the Support Agreement, see the sections titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement — Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination — Support Agreements” beginning on page 109 of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus.

INFORMATION ABOUT SRAC

General

SRAC is an early stage blank check company formed as a Delaware corporation for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses. SRAC may pursue an acquisition opportunity in any business industry or sector. In November 2019, SRAC closed the IPO for the sale of an aggregate of 17,250,000 units at a price of $10.00 per unit, yielding gross proceeds of $172,500,000. Simultaneous with the closing of such offering, SRAC consummated the sale of 545,000 private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit ($5,450,000 in the aggregate) in a private placement. Such proceeds have been deposited in the Trust Account.

Initial Business Combination

Nasdaq rules require that SRAC must complete one or more business combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the value of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on the interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of SRAC’s signing a definitive agreement in connection with its initial business combination. The SRAC Board will make the determination as to the fair market value of its initial business combination. If the SRAC Board is not able to independently determine the fair market value of its initial business combination, SRAC will obtain an opinion from an independent investment banking firm or another independent entity that commonly renders valuation opinions with respect to the satisfaction of such criteria. While SRAC considers it unlikely that its board of directors will not be able to make an independent determination of the fair market value of its initial business combination, it may be unable to do so if it is less familiar or experienced with the business of a particular target or if there is a significant amount of uncertainty as to the value of a target’s assets or prospects.

Redemption of SRAC Class A Common Stock and Liquidation if no Initial Business Combination

SRAC’s existing charter provides that SRAC will have until May 13, 2021 to complete its initial business combination. If SRAC is unable to complete its initial business combination by May 13, 2021, SRAC will: (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the public shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to SRAC to pay its taxes (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding public shares, which redemption will completely extinguish public stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of SRAC’s remaining stockholders and SRAC’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in the case of clauses (ii) and (iii) above to SRAC’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to SRAC’s warrants, which will expire worthless if SRAC fails to complete its initial business combination by May 13, 2021.

The Sponsor and SRAC’s officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement, pursuant to which they have waived their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder shares and private placement shares held by them if SRAC fails to complete its initial business combination by May 13, 2021. However, if the Sponsor or SRAC’s officers or directors acquire public shares, they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to such public shares if SRAC fails to complete its initial business combination by such date.

The Sponsor and SRAC’s officers and directors have agreed, pursuant to a written agreement, that they will not propose any amendment to SRAC’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of SRAC’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with SRAC’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of SRAC’s public shares if SRAC does not complete its initial business combination by May 13, 2021 or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, unless SRAC provides its public stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their shares of SRAC Class A common stock upon approval of any such amendment at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to

SRAC to pay its taxes divided by the number of then outstanding public shares. However, SRAC will only redeem its public shares so long as (after such redemption) its net tangible assets will be at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon consummation of SRAC’s initial business combination and after payment of underwriters’ fees and commissions (so that SRAC is not subject to the SEC’s “penny stock” rules). If this optional redemption right is exercised with respect to an excessive number of public shares such that SRAC cannot satisfy the net tangible asset requirement (described above), SRAC would not proceed with the amendment or the related redemption of its public shares at such time.

SRAC expects that all costs and expenses associated with implementing its plan of dissolution, as well as payments to any creditors, will be funded from amounts remaining out of the $780,336 of proceeds held outside the Trust Account for working capital purposes (as of September 30, 2020), although SRAC cannot assure you that there will be sufficient funds for such purpose. SRAC will depend on sufficient interest being earned on the proceeds held in the Trust Account to pay any tax obligations SRAC may owe. However, if those funds are not sufficient to cover the costs and expenses associated with implementing SRAC’s plan of dissolution, to the extent that there is any interest accrued in the Trust Account not required to pay taxes on interest income earned on the Trust Account balance, SRAC may request the Trustee to release to SRAC an additional amount of up to $100,000 of such accrued interest to pay those costs and expenses.

If SRAC were to expend all of the net proceeds of the IPO and the sale of the private placement units, other than the proceeds deposited in the Trust Account, and without taking into account interest, if any, earned on the Trust Account, the per-share redemption amount received by stockholders upon SRAC’s dissolution would be approximately $10.00. The proceeds deposited in the Trust Account could, however, become subject to the claims of SRAC’s creditors which would have higher priority than the claims of SRAC’s public stockholders. SRAC cannot assure you that the actual per-share redemption amount received by stockholders will not be substantially less than $10.00. Under Section 281(b) of the DGCL, SRAC’s plan of dissolution must provide for all claims against SRAC to be paid in full or make provision for payments to be made in full, as applicable, if there are sufficient assets. These claims must be paid or provided for before SRAC makes any distribution of its remaining assets to its stockholders. While SRAC intends to pay such amounts, if any, SRAC cannot assure you that SRAC will have funds sufficient to pay or provide for all creditors’ claims.

Although SRAC has sought and will continue to seek to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which SRAC does business execute agreements with SRAC waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to any monies held in the Trust Account for the benefit of SRAC public stockholders, there is no guarantee that they will execute such agreements or even if they execute such agreements that they would be prevented from bringing claims against the Trust Account including but not limited to fraudulent inducement, breach of fiduciary responsibility or other similar claims, as well as claims challenging the enforceability of the waiver, in each case in order to gain an advantage with respect to a claim against SRAC’s assets, including the funds held in the Trust Account. If any third party refuses to execute an agreement waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account, SRAC’s management will perform an analysis of the alternatives available to it and will only enter into an agreement with a third party that has not executed a waiver if management believes that such third party’s engagement would be significantly more beneficial to SRAC than any alternative. Examples of possible instances where SRAC may engage a third party that refuses to execute a waiver include the engagement of a third party consultant whose particular expertise or skills are believed by management to be significantly superior to those of other consultants that would agree to execute a waiver or in cases where management is unable to find a service provider willing to execute a waiver. SRAC’s independent registered public accounting firm, and the underwriters of the IPO, will not execute agreements with SRAC waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account.

In addition, there is no guarantee that such entities will agree to waive any claims they may have in the future as a result of, or arising out of, any negotiations, contracts or agreements with SRAC and will not seek recourse against the Trust Account for any reason. The Sponsor has agreed that it will be liable to SRAC if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to SRAC, or a prospective target business with which SRAC has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or Merger Agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per public share and (ii) the actual amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets, less taxes payable, provided that such liability will not apply to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) nor will it apply to any claims under SRAC’s indemnity of the

underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. However, SRAC has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations, nor has SRAC independently verified whether the Sponsor has sufficient funds to satisfy its indemnity obligations and believes that the Sponsor’s only assets are securities of SRAC. Therefore, SRAC cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. None of SRAC’s officers or directors will indemnify SRAC for claims by third parties including, without limitation, claims by vendors and prospective target businesses.

In the event that the proceeds in the Trust Account are reduced below (i) $10.00 per public share or (ii) such lesser amount per public share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, due to reductions in value of the trust assets, in each case net of the amount of interest which may be withdrawn to pay taxes, and the Sponsor asserts that it is unable to satisfy its indemnification obligations or that it has no indemnification obligations related to a particular claim, SRAC’s independent directors would determine whether to take legal action against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations. While SRAC currently expects that its independent directors would take legal action on SRAC’s behalf against the Sponsor to enforce its indemnification obligations to SRAC, it is possible that SRAC’s independent directors in exercising their business judgment may choose not to do so if, for example, the cost of such legal action is deemed by the independent directors to be too high relative to the amount recoverable or if the independent directors determine that a favorable outcome is not likely. SRAC has not asked the Sponsor to reserve for such indemnification obligations and SRAC cannot assure you that the Sponsor would be able to satisfy those obligations. Accordingly, SRAC cannot assure you that due to claims of creditors the actual value of the per-share redemption price will not be less than $10.00 per public share.

SRAC seeks to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor has to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which SRAC does business execute agreements with SRAC waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. The Sponsor will also not be liable as to any claims under SRAC’s indemnity of the underwriters of the IPO against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act. SRAC has access to up to approximately $780,336 from the proceeds held outside the Trust Account (as of September 30, 2020) with which to pay any such potential claims (including costs and expenses incurred in connection with SRAC’s liquidation, currently estimated to be no more than approximately $100,000). In the event that SRAC liquidates and it is subsequently determined that the reserve for claims and liabilities is insufficient, stockholders who received funds from its Trust Account could be liable for claims made by creditors.

Under the DGCL, stockholders may be held liable for claims by third parties against a corporation to the extent of distributions received by them in a dissolution. The pro rata portion of the Trust Account distributed to public stockholders upon the redemption of SRAC’s public shares in the event SRAC does not complete its initial business combination by May 13, 2021 may be considered a liquidating distribution under Delaware law. Delaware law provides that if a corporation complies with certain procedures set forth in Section 280 of the DGCL intended to ensure that it makes reasonable provision for all claims against it, including a 60-day notice period during which any third-party claims can be brought against the corporation, a 90-day period during which the corporation may reject any claims brought, and an additional 150-day waiting period before any liquidating distributions are made to stockholders, any liability of stockholders with respect to a liquidating distribution is limited to the lesser of such stockholder’s pro rata share of the claim or the amount distributed to the stockholder, and any liability of the stockholder would be barred after the third anniversary of the dissolution.

SRAC’s public stockholders will be entitled to receive funds from the Trust Account only upon the earlier to occur of: (i) the completion of its initial business combination, (ii) the redemption of any public shares properly tendered in connection with a stockholder vote to amend any provisions of SRAC’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (A) to modify the substance or timing of SRAC’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with its initial business combination or to redeem 100% of SRAC’s public shares if SRAC does not complete its initial business combination by May 13, 2021 or (B) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, and (iii) the redemption of all of SRAC’s public shares if SRAC is unable to complete its business combination by May 13, 2021, subject to applicable law. In no other circumstances will a stockholder have any right or interest of any kind to or in the Trust Account. In the event SRAC seeks stockholder approval in connection with its initial business combination, a stockholder’s voting in connection with the initial business combination alone will not result in a stockholder’s redeeming its shares to SRAC for an applicable pro rata share of the Trust Account. Such stockholder must have also exercised its redemption rights as described above. These provisions of SRAC’s existing charter, like all provisions of SRAC’s existing charter, may be amended with a stockholder vote.

Competition

In identifying, evaluating and selecting a target business for its initial business combination, SRAC has encountered, and may continue to encounter, intense competition from other entities having a business objective similar to SRAC’s, including other blank check companies, private equity groups and leveraged buyout funds, and operating businesses seeking strategic business combinations. Many of these entities are well established and have extensive experience identifying and effecting business combinations directly or through affiliates. Moreover, many of these competitors possess greater financial, technical, human and other resources than SRAC does. SRAC’s ability to acquire larger target businesses is limited by its available financial resources. This inherent limitation gives others an advantage in pursuing the initial business combination of a target business. Furthermore, SRAC’s obligation to pay cash in connection with its public stockholders who exercise their redemption rights may reduce the resources available to SRAC for its initial business combination and its outstanding warrants, and the future dilution they potentially represent, may not be viewed favorably by certain target businesses. Either of these factors may place SRAC at a competitive disadvantage in successfully negotiating an initial business combination.

Employees

SRAC currently has three officers. These individuals are not obligated to devote any specific number of hours to SRAC’s matters but they devote as much of their time as they deem necessary and intend to continue doing so, in the exercise of their respective business judgement, to SRAC’s affairs until SRAC has completed its initial business combination. The amount of time they devote in any time period will vary based on whether a target business has been selected for SRAC’s initial business combination and the stage of the initial business combination process SRAC is in. SRAC does not intend to have any full time employees prior to the completion of its initial business combination. SRAC does not have an employment agreement with any member of its management team.

Facilities

SRAC does not own any real estate or other physical properties materially important to SRAC’s operation. SRAC currently maintains its principal executive offices at 1345 Abbot Kinney Boulevard Venice, CA 90291. The cost for this space is included in the $10,000 per-month aggregate fee an affiliate of the Sponsor charges SRAC for general and administrative services. SRAC considers its current office space, combined with the other office space otherwise available to its executive officers, adequate for its current operations.

SRAC’S MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF
FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

Overview

SRAC is a blank check company incorporated as a Delaware corporation on September 19, 2019 and formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination) with one or more businesses. SRAC intends to effectuate its initial business combination using cash from the proceeds the IPO and the private placement of the private placement units, the proceeds of the sale of SRAC common stock in connection with its initial business combination (pursuant to backstop agreements SRAC may enter into), shares issued to the owners of Momentus, debt issued to banks or other lenders or the owners of the target, or a combination of the foregoing.

The issuance of additional shares in connection with the initial business combination to the owners of Momentus or other investors:

•        may significantly dilute the equity interest of investors in the IPO, which dilution would increase if the anti-dilution provisions in the SRAC Class B common stock resulted in the issuance of SRAC Class A shares on a greater than one-to-one basis upon conversion of the SRAC Class B common stock;

•        may subordinate the rights of holders of SRAC’s common stock if preferred stock is issued with rights senior to those afforded SRAC’s common stock;

•        could cause a change in control if a substantial number of shares of SRAC’s common stock is issued, which may affect, among other things, SRAC’s ability to use its net operating loss carry forwards, if any, and could result in the resignation or removal of SRAC’s present officers and directors;

•        may have the effect of delaying or preventing a change of control of SRAC by diluting the stock ownership or voting rights of a person seeking to obtain control of SRAC; and

•        may adversely affect prevailing market prices for SRAC’s Class A common stock and/or warrants.

Similarly, if SRAC issues debt securities or otherwise incurs significant indebtedness, it could result in:

•        default and foreclosure on SRAC assets if SRAC’s operating revenues after an initial business combination are insufficient to repay SRAC debt obligations;

•        acceleration of SRAC’s obligations to repay the indebtedness even if SRAC makes all principal and interest payments when due if SRAC breach certain covenants that require the maintenance of certain financial ratios or reserves without a waiver or renegotiation of that covenant;

•        SRAC’s immediate payment of all principal and accrued interest, if any, if the debt security is payable on demand;

•        SRAC’s inability to obtain necessary additional financing if the debt security contains covenants restricting SRAC’s ability to obtain such financing while the debt security is outstanding;

•        SRAC’s inability to pay dividends on its common stock;

•        using a substantial portion of SRAC’s cash flow to pay principal and interest on SRAC’s debt, which will reduce the funds available for dividends on SRAC’s common stock if declared, SRAC’s ability to pay expenses, make capital expenditures and acquisitions, and fund other general corporate purposes;

•        limitations on SRAC’s flexibility in planning for and reacting to changes in SRAC’s business and in the industry in which it operates;

•        increased vulnerability to adverse changes in general economic, industry and competitive conditions and adverse changes in government regulation;

221

Table of Contents

•        limitations on SRAC’s ability to borrow additional amounts for expenses, capital expenditures, acquisitions, debt service requirements, and execution of its strategy; and

•        other purposes and other disadvantages compared to SRAC’s competitors who have less debt.

SRAC expects to continue to incur significant costs in the pursuit of its acquisition plans. SRAC cannot assure you that its plans to complete the initial business combination will be successful.

Impact of COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency because of the COVID-19 outbreak. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic, based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. The full impact of the COVID-19 outbreak continues to evolve. The impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on SRAC’s ability to consummate the initial business combination or on the post-combination company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and related advisories and restrictions. These developments and the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak on the financial markets and the overall economy are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. SRAC’s ability to consummate the initial business combination may be materially adversely affected due to significant governmental measures being implemented to contain the COVID-19 outbreak or treat its impact, including travel restrictions, the shutdown of businesses and quarantines, among others, which may limit its ability to have meetings with Momentus’ personnel, vendors and service providers to negotiate and consummate the business.

Results of Operations

SRAC has neither engaged in any operations nor generated any revenues to date. SRAC’s only activities since inception have been organizational activities and those necessary to prepare for SRAC’s IPO, described below, and identifying a target for its initial business combination. SRAC does not expect to generate any operating revenues until after completion of its initial business combination. SRAC generates non-operating income in the form of interest income on marketable securities held in its trust account. SRAC incurs expenses as a result of being a public company (for legal, financial reporting, accounting and auditing compliance), as well as for due diligence expenses in connection with completing its initial business combination.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, SRAC had net income of $131,233, which consists of operating costs of $776,516 and a provision for income taxes of $179,405, offset by interest income on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $1,087,154.

For the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through September 30, 2019, SRAC had net loss of $865, which consists of formation costs.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

On November 13, 2019, SRAC consummated its IPO of 17,250,000 units, which included the full exercise by the underwriter of the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 2,250,000 units, at $10.00 per unit, generating gross proceeds of $172,500,000. Simultaneously with the closing of its IPO, SRAC consummated the sale of 545,000 private placement units to the Sponsor and Cantor at a price of $10.00 per private placement unit, generating gross proceeds of $5,450,000.

Following SRAC’s IPO, the exercise of the over-allotment option and the sale of the private placement units, a total of $172,500,000 was placed in the Trust Account. SRAC incurred $10,924,857 in transaction costs, including $3,450,000 of underwriting fees, $6,900,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $574,857 of other offering costs.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, cash used in operating activities was $1,161,611. Net income of $131,233 was offset by interest earned on marketable securities held in the Trust Account of $1,087,154 and changes in operating assets and liabilities, which used $205,690 of cash from operating activities.

222

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2020, SRAC had cash and marketable securities in the Trust Account of $173,084,402. SRAC intends to use substantially all of the funds held in the Trust Account, including any amounts representing interest earned on the Trust Account (less deferred underwriting commissions) to complete SRAC’s initial Business Combination. SRAC may withdraw interest to pay taxes. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, SRAC withdrew $848,763 of interest income from the Trust Account to pay for taxes. To the extent that SRAC’s capital stock or debt is used, in whole or in part, as consideration to complete SRAC’s initial Business Combination, the remaining proceeds held in the Trust Account will be used as working capital to finance the operations of the target business or businesses, make other acquisitions and pursue SRAC’s growth strategies.

As of September 30, 2020, SRAC had cash of $780,336 outside of the Trust Account. SRAC intends to use the funds held outside the Trust Account primarily to identify and evaluate target businesses, perform business due diligence on prospective target businesses, travel to and from the offices, plants or similar locations of prospective target businesses or their representatives or owners, review corporate documents and material agreements of prospective target businesses, and structure, negotiate and complete our initial Business Combination.

In order to fund working capital deficiencies or finance transaction costs in connection with SRAC’s initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of SRAC’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan SRAC funds as may be required. If SRAC completes its initial business combination, SRAC would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that SRAC’s initial business combination does not close, SRAC may use a portion of its working capital held outside its Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from its Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units identical to the private placement units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender.

SRAC does not currently believe it will need to raise additional funds in order to meet the expenditures required for operating its business. However, if SRAC’s estimate of the costs of identifying a target business, undertaking in-depth due diligence and negotiating its initial business combination are less than the actual amount necessary to do so, SRAC may have insufficient funds available to operate its business prior to its initial business combination. Moreover, SRAC may need to obtain additional financing either to complete its initial business combination or because SRAC becomes obligated to redeem a significant number of its public shares upon consummation of its initial business combination, in which case SRAC may issue additional securities or incur debt in connection with such business combination. Subject to compliance with applicable securities laws, SRAC would only complete such financing simultaneously with the completion of its initial business combination. If SRAC is unable to complete its initial business combination because SRAC does not have sufficient funds available to it, SRAC will be forced to cease operations and liquidate its Trust Account. In addition, following SRAC’s initial business combination, if cash on hand is insufficient, SRAC may need to obtain additional financing in order to meet its obligations.

Going Concern

In connection with our assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” SRAC has until May 13, 2021 to consummate a business combination. It is uncertain that SRAC will be able to consummate a business combination by this time. If a business combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution. SRAC’s management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a business combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about SRAC’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should SRAC be required to liquidate after May 13, 2021.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

SRAC did not have any obligations, assets or liabilities which would be considered off-balance sheet arrangements as of September 30, 2020. SRAC does not participate in transactions that create relationships with unconsolidated entities or financial partnerships, often referred to as variable interest entities, which would have been established for the purpose of facilitating any off-balance sheet financing arrangements. SRAC has not entered into any off-balance sheet financing arrangements, established any special purpose entities, guaranteed any debt commitments of other entities, or purchased any non-financial assets.

223

Table of Contents

Contractual Obligations

SRAC does not have any long-term debt, capital lease obligations, operating lease obligations or long-term liabilities, other than an agreement to pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a monthly fee of $10,000 for office space, utilities and administrative support services provided to SRAC. SRAC began incurring these fees on November 8, 2019 and will continue to incur these fees monthly until the earlier of the completion of its initial business combination and SRAC’s liquidation.

The underwriters are entitled to deferred commissions of $0.40 per unit of the gross proceeds from the units sold in the IPO, or $6,900,000 in the aggregate. The deferred commissions will become payable to the underwriters from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that SRAC completes its initial business combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Critical Accounting Policies

The preparation of condensed financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and income and expenses during the periods reported. Actual results could materially differ from those estimates. SRAC has identified the following critical accounting policies:

Common stock subject to possible redemption

SRAC accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that are either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within its control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. SRAC’s common stock features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of its control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, the common stock subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of SRAC’s condensed balance sheets.

Net income (loss) per common share

SRAC applies the two-class method in calculating earnings per share. Net income per common share, basic and diluted, for Class A redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account, net of applicable taxes, by the weighted average number of shares of Class A redeemable common stock outstanding for the period. Net income per common share, basic and diluted, for Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing net income less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock, by the weighted average number of shares of Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock outstanding for the period presented.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on SRAC’s condensed financial statements.

CERTAIN SRAC RELATIONSHIPS AND RELATED PERSON TRANSACTIONS

In June 2019, SRAC issued an aggregate of 4,312,500 founder shares to the Sponsor for an aggregate purchase price of $25,000 in cash, or approximately $0.006 per share. The number of founder shares issued was determined based on the expectation that such founder shares would represent 20% of the outstanding shares upon completion of its IPO (excluding the private placement units and underlying securities). The founder shares (including the SRAC Class A common stock issuable upon exercise thereof) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be transferred, assigned or sold by the holder.

The Sponsor and Cantor purchased an aggregate of 545,000 private placement units at a price of $10.00 per unit, for a purchase price of $5,450,000. The founder shares included up to 562,500 shares subject to forfeiture. Because the underwriters of the IPO exercised their over-allotment in full, all 4,312,500 shares remain outstanding. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to the founder shares, private placement units (or the shares or warrants that are a part of the private placement units), which will expire worthless if SRAC does not consummate a business combination by May 13, 2021.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its founder shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) six months after the completion of a business combination or (B) subsequent to a business combination, (x) if the last sale price of the SRAC Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after a business combination (with such clauses (A) and (B) as amended by the Sponsor Agreement), or (y) the date on which SRAC completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of SRAC’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

On June 28, 2019, the Sponsor agreed to loan SRAC an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the IPO pursuant to a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of December 31, 2019 or the completion of the IPO. Borrowings outstanding under the Promissory Note of $222,725 were repaid upon the consummation of the IPO on November 13, 2019.

SRAC pays Stable Road Capital, LLC, an affiliate of its sponsor, a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and administrative support. Upon completion of SRAC’s initial business combination or liquidation, SRAC will cease paying these monthly fees.

Other than the foregoing, no compensation of any kind, including any finder’s fee, reimbursement, consulting fee or monies in respect of any payment of a loan, will be paid by SRAC to the Sponsor or SRAC’s officers, directors or advisors or any affiliate of the Sponsor or SRAC’s officers, directors or advisors prior to, or in connection with any services rendered in order to effectuate, the consummation of an initial business combination (regardless of the type of transaction that it is). However, these individuals will be reimbursed for any out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with activities on SRAC’s behalf such as identifying potential target businesses and performing due diligence on suitable business combinations. SRAC’s audit committee will review on a quarterly basis all payments that were made to its sponsor, officers, directors, advisors, its affiliates or their affiliates and will determine which expenses and the amount of expenses that will be reimbursed. There is no cap or ceiling on the reimbursement of out-of-pocket expenses incurred by such persons in connection with activities on SRAC’s behalf.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor or certain of SRAC’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan SRAC funds as may be required. If SRAC completes an initial business combination, it would repay such loaned amounts. In the event that the initial business combination does not close, SRAC may use a portion of the working capital to be held outside the Trust Account to repay such loaned amounts but no proceeds from the Trust Account would be used for such repayment. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of SRAC’s initial business combination. The units would be identical to the private placement units. The terms of such loans by SRAC’s officers and directors, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. SRAC does not expect to seek loans from parties other than the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor as SRAC does not believe third parties will be willing to loan such funds and provide a waiver against any and all rights to seek access to funds in the Trust Account.

Table of Contents

At the consummation of the Mergers, SRAC, Sponsor, certain existing holder(s) of SRAC capital stock (including SRAC Partners) and certain Company stockholders, in each case who will receive SRAC Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement in respect of the shares of SRAC Class A common stock issued to Sponsor and such Company stockholders in connection with the transactions set forth above. Pursuant to such agreement, such holders and their permitted transferees will be entitled to certain customary registration rights, including, among other things, demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cut-back provisions. Pursuant to the Registration Rights Agreement, Sponsor and SRAC Partners will agree not to sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of shares of SRAC Class A common stock or other securities exercisable therefor for certain time periods specified therein.

Mikhail Kokorich.    Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Company’s co-founder, Mr. Kokorich, will serve as Chief Executive Officer and a director of the Combined Company. Mr. Kokorich has served as Momentus’ Chief Executive Officer since November 2017. Mr. Kokorich was a co-founder of Helios Wire Inc., a satellite communication operator and provider of machine-to-machine (M2M) connectivity and served on its board from August 2016 to its sale in October 2019. Mr. Kokorich also co-founded Astro Digital US, Inc., a leading small satellite developer in the United States, and served as President of its subsidiary, Astro Digital Inc., from March 2015 to April 2018. From June 2014 to April 2018, Mr. Kokorich served as President and Director of ExactFarming Inc., a provider of cloud-based farm management services, which he co-founded. He also co-founded and, was actively involved from June 2012 to June 2017, as a Director and President of Dauria Aerospace, a developer, manufacturer and operator of satellites for monitoring agriculture and economic activity. Mr. Kokorich holds a Specialist in Economics from Novosibirsk State University, Novosibirsk, Russia and an M.B.A degree from Moscow School of Management SKOLKOVO, Moscow, Russia. He also completed the Stanford Executive Program at Stanford Business School.

We believe that Mr. Kokorich is qualified to serve as a member of the board of directors of the Combined Company because of his extensive professional experience in the space technology industry and deep knowledge of the operations of Momentus as our Chief Executive Officer.

Corporate Governance

Board Composition

The primary responsibilities of the Combined Company Board of Directors (the “Combined Company Board”) will be to provide oversight, strategic guidance, counseling and direction to the Combined Company’s management. When considering whether directors and director nominees have the experience, qualifications, attributes and skills, taken as a whole, to enable the Combined Company Board to satisfy its oversight responsibilities effectively in light of its business and structure, the Combined Company Board is expected to focus primarily on each person’s background and experience as reflected in the information discussed in each of the directors’ individual biographies set forth above in order to provide an appropriate mix of experience and skills relevant to the size and nature of its business. If the proposed charter is approved, the Combined Company Board will be divided into the following three classes, with members of each class serving staggered three-year terms:

•        Class I, which Momentus anticipates will consist of Brian Kabot and Vince Deno, whose terms will expire at Combined Company’s first annual meeting of stockholders to be held after consummation of the Business Combination;

•        Class II, which Momentus anticipates will consist of Chris Hadfield and Edward Horowitz, whose terms will expire at the Combined Company’s second annual meeting of stockholders to be held after consummation of the Business Combination; and

•        Class III, which Momentus anticipates will consist of Dawn Harms, Mikhail Kokorich and David Siminoff, whose terms will expire at the Combined Company’s third annual meeting of stockholders to be held after consummation of the Business Combination.

At each annual meeting of stockholders to be held after the initial classification, the successors to directors whose terms then expire will be elected to serve from the time of election and qualification until the third annual meeting following their election and until their successors are duly elected and qualified. This classification of the Combined Company Board may have the effect of delaying or preventing changes in the Combined Company’s control or management. The Combined Company’s directors may be removed for cause by the affirmative vote of the holders of at least two-thirds of the Combined Company’s voting stock.

Director Independence

Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Combined Company Board is expected to determine that each of the directors on the Combined Company Board other than Mikhail Kokorich and Dawn Harms will qualify as independent directors, as defined under Nasdaq listing rules, and the Combined Company Board will consist of a majority of “independent directors,” as defined under the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq listing rules relating to director independence requirements. In addition, the Combined Company will be subject to the rules of the SEC and Nasdaq relating to the membership, qualifications, and operations of the audit committee, as discussed below.

Board Leadership Structure

The Combined Company Board is expected to determine that it should maintain the flexibility to select the Chairman of the board of directors of the Combined Company and adjust its board leadership structure based on circumstances existing from time to time and based on criteria that are in the Combined Company’s best interests and the best interests of its stockholders, including the composition, skills, diversity and experience of the board and its members, specific challenges faced by the Combined Company or the industry in which it operates and governance efficiency. The board intends to adopt Corporate Governance Guidelines, effective as of the consummation of the Business Combination, which will provide for the appointment of a lead independent director at any time when the chairperson is not independent. It is expected that the Combined Company’s Chief Executive Officer, Mikhail Kokorich, will be elected to serve as chairperson of the board because of his strategic vision for the business, his in-depth knowledge of Momentus’ operations, and his experience serving as the Chief Executive Officer since inception. It is expected

230

Table of Contents

that the board of the Combined Company will select a lead independent director after the closing of the Business Combination.

Board Role in Risk Oversight

Upon the consummation of Business Combination, one of the key functions of the Combined Company Board will be informed oversight of Combined Company’s risk management process. It is anticipated that this oversight function will be administered directly through the Combined Company Board as a whole, as well as through various standing committees of the Combined Company Board that address risks inherent in their respective areas of oversight. In particular, the Combined Company Board will be responsible for monitoring and assessing strategic risk exposure and Combined Company’s audit committee will have the responsibility to consider and discuss the Combined Company’s major financial risk exposures and the steps its management will take to monitor and control such exposures, including guidelines and policies to govern the process by which risk assessment and management is undertaken. The audit committee will also monitor compliance with legal and regulatory requirements. The compensation committee will also assess and monitor whether the Combined Company’s compensation plans, policies and programs comply with applicable legal and regulatory requirements. The nominating and corporate governance committee will monitor the effectiveness of Combined Company’s governance guidelines.

Committees of the Combined Company Board of Directors

Effective as of the consummation of the Business Combination, the Combined Company will have an audit committee, a compensation committee and a nominating and corporate governance committee, each of which will have the composition and responsibilities described below. Members will serve on these committees until their resignation or until otherwise determined by the board of directors of the Combined Company. Each committee will operate under a charter approved by the board of directors of the Combined Company. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, copies of each charter will be posted on the Investor Relations section of our website at https://momentus.space/. Our website and the information contained on, or that can be accessed through, our website is not deemed to be incorporated by reference in, and is not considered part of, this proxy statement/consent solicitation/prospectus.

Audit Committee

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the Combined Company’s audit committee will be comprised of Brian Kabot, Ed Horowitz and David Siminoff, and Mr. Kabot will be the chairperson of the audit committee. Messrs. Kabot, Horowitz and Siminoff will each meet the requirements for independence and financial literacy under the current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations, including Rule 10A-3. In addition, it is expected that Mr. Siminoff will qualify as an “audit committee financial expert” as defined in applicable SEC rules.

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the audit committee’s responsibilities will include, among other things:

•        appointing, compensating, retaining, evaluating, terminating and overseeing the Combined Company’s independent registered public accounting firm;

•        reviewing the adequacy of the Combined Company’s system of internal controls and the disclosure regarding such system of internal controls contained in the Combined Company’s periodic filings;

•        pre-approving all audit and permitted non-audit services and related engagement fees and terms for services provided by the Combined Company’s independent auditors;

•        reviewing with the Combined Company’s independent auditors their independence from management;

•        reviewing, recommending and discussing various aspects of the financial statements and reporting of the financial statements with management and the Combined Company’s independent auditors; and

•        establishing procedures for the confidential anonymous submission of concerns regarding questionable accounting, internal controls or auditing matters.

Compensation Committee

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the Combined Company’s compensation committee will be comprised of Vince Deno, Brian Kabot, David Siminoff, and Mr. Siminoff will be the chairperson of the compensation committee. The composition of the compensation committee meets the requirements for independence under current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Each member of the committee will be a non-employee director, as defined in Rule 16b-3 promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the compensation committee will be responsible for, among other things:

•        setting the compensation of the Chief Executive Officer and, in consultation with the Chief Executive Officer, reviewing and approving the compensation of the other executive officers of the Combined Company;

•        reviewing on a periodic basis and making recommendations regarding non-employee director compensation to the Combined Company Board;

•        administering the Combined Company’s cash and equity-based incentive plans that are stockholder-approved and/or where participants include the Combined Company’s executive officers and directors; and

•        providing oversight of and recommending improvements to the Combined Company’s overall compensation and incentive plans and benefit programs.

The charter also provides that the compensation committee may, in its sole discretion, retain or obtain the advice of a compensation consultant, legal counsel or other adviser and will be directly responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of any such adviser. However, before engaging or receiving advice from a compensation consultant, external legal counsel or any other adviser, the compensation committee will consider the independence of each such adviser, including the factors required by Nasdaq and the SEC.

Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the nominating and corporate governance committee will be comprised of Ed Horowitz, Vince Deno, Chris Hadfield, and Mr. Horowitz will be the chairperson of the nominating and corporate governance committee. The composition of the nominating and corporate governance committee will meet the requirements for independence under current Nasdaq listing standards and SEC rules and regulations. Following the consummation of the Business Combination, the nominating and corporate governance committee will be responsible for, among other things:

•        identifying, evaluating and making recommendations to the Combined Company Board regarding nominees for election to the board of directors and its committees;

•        developing and making recommendations to the Combined Company Board regarding corporate governance guidelines and matters;

•        overseeing the Combined Company’s corporate governance practices;

•        overseeing the evaluation and the performance of the Combined Company Board and individual directors; and

•        contributing to succession planning.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

None of the members of the compensation committee is or has been at any time one of Momentus’ officers or employees. None of Momentus’ executive officers currently serves, or in the past fiscal year has served, as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee (or other board of directors committee performing equivalent functions or, in the absence of any such committee, the entire board of directors) of any entity that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of Momentus’ Board or compensation committee.

Table of Contents

Code of Ethics

The board of directors of the Combined Company will adopt a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics that will apply to all of our directors, officers and employees, including our principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. Upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics will be available on the Corporate Governance section of our website. In addition, we intend to post on the Corporate Governance section of our website all disclosures that are required by law or Nasdaq listing standards any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the Code of Business Conduct and Ethics. The reference to our website address in this proxy statement/consent solicitation/prospectus does not include or incorporate by reference the information on our website into this proxy statement/consent solicitation/prospectus.

Limitation on Liability and Indemnification of Officers and Directors

The proposed charter, which will be effective upon consummation of the Business Combination, limits Combined Company’s directors’ liability to the fullest extent permitted under the DGCL. The DGCL provides that directors of a corporation will not be personally liable for monetary damages for breach of their fiduciary duties as directors, except for liability:

•        for any transaction from which the director derives an improper personal benefit;

•         for any act or omission not in good faith or that involves intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law;

•        for any unlawful payment of dividends or redemption of shares; or

•        for any breach of a director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders.

If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the personal liability of directors, then the liability of the Combined Company’s directors will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL, as so amended.

Delaware law and the Combined Company’s Amended and Restated Bylaws, which will be effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination, provide that the Combined Company will, in certain situations, indemnify the Combined Company’s directors and officers and may indemnify other employees and other agents, to the fullest extent permitted by law. Any indemnified person is also entitled, subject to certain limitations, to advancement, direct payment, or reimbursement of reasonable expenses (including attorneys’ fees and disbursements) in advance of the final disposition of the proceeding.

In addition, the Combined Company will enter into separate indemnification agreements with the Combined Company’s directors and officers. These agreements, among other things, will require the Combined Company to indemnify its directors and officers for certain expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines and settlement amounts incurred by a director or officer in any action or proceeding arising out of their services as one of the Combined Company’s directors or officers or any other company or enterprise to which the person provides services at the Combined Company’s request. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to directors, officers, or control persons, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is therefore unenforceable.

These provisions may discourage stockholders from bringing a lawsuit against our directors for breach of their fiduciary duty. These provisions also may have the effect of reducing the likelihood of derivative litigation against officers and directors, even though such an action, if successful, might otherwise benefit us and our stockholders. Furthermore, a stockholder’s investment may be adversely affected to the extent we pay the costs of settlement and damage awards against officers and directors pursuant to these indemnification provisions.

The Combined Company also plans to maintain a directors’ and officers’ insurance policy pursuant to which the Combined Company’s directors and officers are insured against liability for actions taken in their capacities as directors and officers. We believe that the provisions in the proposed charter, the Combined Company Amended and Restated Bylaws, which will be effective upon the consummation of the Business Combination, the directors’ and officers’ liability insurance and the indemnity agreements are necessary to attract and retain talented and experienced officers and directors.

In 2019, the named executive officers received an annual base salary to compensate them for services rendered to Momentus. The base salary payable to each of Mr. Kokorich, Mr. Fishkin and Ms. Harms was intended to provide a fixed component of compensation reflecting the executive’s skill set, experience, role and responsibilities.

Momentus Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan

General.    Momentus’ board of directors originally adopted, and Momentus’ stockholders approved, the Momentus 2018 Stock Plan on October 30, 2018. In February 2020, Momentus’ board of directors and Momentus’ stockholder approved the amendment and restatement of the Momentus 2018 Stock Plan, and such plan was thereafter referred to as the Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan (the “Amended and Restated 2018 Plan”). The Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan was last amended on August 23, 2020. The Amended and Restated 2018 Plan provides for the grant of incentive stock options to Momentus employees (and employees of any parent or subsidiary of Momentus) and for the grant of non-statutory stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock purchase rights to Momentus employees, directors and consultants (and employees and consultants of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Momentus). The Amended and Restated 2018 Plan will terminate contingent upon the effectiveness of the 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, at which time the outstanding awards previously granted thereunder will be assumed by SRAC.

Stock Options.    The Momentus board of directors has granted stock options under the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan. The exercise price per share applicable to such options was equal to at least the fair market value per share of Momentus Class A common stock on the date of grant. The term of options granted under the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan did not exceed 10 years; provided, however, that any incentive stock option granted to a participant who owned more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of Momentus stock, or of certain of Momentus’ subsidiary corporations, did not have a term in excess of five years and had an exercise price per share of at least 110% of the fair market value per share of Momentus Class A common stock on the grant date. Subject to the provisions of the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan, the Momentus board of directors determined the remaining terms of the options (e.g., vesting). After the termination of service of an employee, director or consultant, the participant may exercise his or her option, to the extent vested, for the period of time stated in his or her option agreement. Generally, if termination is due to death or disability, the option will remain exercisable for 12 months. In all other cases except for a termination for cause, the option will generally remain exercisable for three months following the termination of service. In the event of a termination for cause, the option will immediately terminate. However, in no event may an option be exercised later than the expiration of its term.

Non-transferability of Awards.    Unless the Momentus board of directors provides otherwise, the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan generally does not allow for the transfer of awards or shares acquired pursuant to an award and only the recipient of an option may exercise such an award during his or her lifetime.

Certain Adjustments.    In the event of certain corporate events or changes in Momentus capitalization, to prevent diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits available under the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan, the Momentus board of directors will make adjustments to one or more of the number, kind and class of securities that may be delivered under the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan and/or the number, kind, class and price of securities covered by each outstanding award.

Dissolution or liquidation.    In the event of Momentus’ dissolution or liquidation, each option and stock purchase right will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, unless otherwise determined by the Momentus board of directors.

Corporate Transaction.    The Amended and Restated 2018 Plan provides that in the event of certain significant corporate transactions, including: (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of Momentus’ assets, (ii) a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization or business combination transaction of Momentus with or into another corporation, entity or person, or (iii) the consummation of a transaction, or series of related transactions, in which any person becomes the beneficial owner, directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of Momentus’ then outstanding capital stock, each outstanding award will be treated as the Momentus board of directors determines.

Amendment or Termination.    Momentus’ board of directors may amend or terminate the Amended and Restated 2018 Plan at any time, provided such action does not materially and adversely affect the rights of any participant without his or her consent. In addition, stockholder approval must be obtained to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with applicable laws.

Space Apprentices Enterprise Inc. 2018 Stock Plan

General.    Momentus’ board of directors adopted, and Momentus’ stockholders approved, the Space Apprentices Enterprise Inc. 2018 Stock Plan, or Prior 2018 Plan, on May 21, 2018. The Prior 2018 Plan was terminated on October 30, 2018 in connection with the adoption of the Momentus 2018 Stock Plan. Upon the Closing, all outstanding awards granted under the Prior 2018 Plan will be assumed by SRAC and will continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of the Prior 2018 Plan and the stock award agreements pursuant to which such awards were granted. The Prior 2018 Plan provided for the grant of incentive stock options to Momentus employees (and employees of any parent or subsidiary of Momentus) and for the grant of non-statutory stock options, restricted stock and restricted stock purchase rights to Momentus employees, directors and consultants (and employees and consultants of any parent, subsidiary or affiliate of Momentus).

As defined in the agreement, “disabled” means that Mr. Kokorich is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted, or can be expected to last, for a continuous period of not less than one (1) year.

As defined in the agreement, “good reason” means Mr. Kokorich’s resignation due to the occurrence of any of the following conditions which occurs without Mr. Kokorich’s written consent, provided that the requirements regarding advance notice and an opportunity to cure set forth below are satisfied: (1) a reduction of Mr. Kokorich’s then current base salary by 10% or more unless such reduction is part of a generalized salary reduction affecting similarly situated employees; (2) a change in Mr. Kokorich’s position with the Combined Company that materially reduces his duties, level of authority or operating responsibility, provided that a mere change in title following a Change in Control to a position that is substantially similar to the position held prior to the Change in Control with respect to the operations of the Combined Company shall not, by itself, constitute a material reduction of Mr. Kokorich’s duties, level of authority or operating responsibility; (3) the Combined Company conditions Mr. Kokorich’s continued service with the Combined Company on Mr. Kokorich being transferred to a site of employment that would increase Mr. Kokorich’s one-way commute by more than 50 miles from Mr. Kokorich’s then-principal residence; or (4) a material breach by the Combined Company of the CEO Option Grant. For Mr. Kokorich to resign for “good reason”, he must provide written notice to the Combined Company of the existence of the “good reason” condition within 30 days of the initial existence of such “good reason” condition. Upon receipt of such notice, the Combined Company will have 30 days during which it may remedy the “good reason” condition and not be required to provide for the severance benefits described herein as a result of such proposed resignation. If the “good reason” condition is not remedied within such 30-day period, Mr. Kokorich may resign based on the “good reason” condition specified in the notice effective no later than 60 days following the expiration of the 30-day cure period.

Director Compensation

Historically, Momentus has neither had a formal compensation policy for its non-employee directors, nor has it had a formal policy of reimbursing expenses incurred by its non-employee directors in connection with their board service. However, Momentus has occasionally granted stock options. Momentus did not provide its non-employee directors who will be non-employee directors of the Combined Company, with any cash, equity or other compensation in 2019.

As of December 31, 2019, Mr. Kokorich held unexercised stock options and an unvested stock award as set forth above under the section titled “Executive Compensation — Outstanding Equity Awards at Fiscal Year End.” Mr. Kokorich did not receive any additional compensation for service as a director for 2019. The compensation of Mr. Kokorich as a named executive officer is set forth above under the section titled “Executive Compensation — Summary Compensation Table.”

Non-Employee Director Compensation Policy

In connection with the Business Combination, the Combined Company Board will adopt a new non-employee director compensation policy to govern the Combined Company effective as of the Closing. The new policy is designed to attract and retain high quality non-employee directors by providing competitive compensation and align their interests with the interests of stockholders through equity awards.

243

Table of Contents

Specifically, the new policy provides for the following annual cash retainers, which will be payable quarterly in arrears and pro-rated for partial quarters of service:

Annual Board Member Service Retainer

•        All Outside Directors: $60,000

•        Outside Director serving as Chairperson: $60,000 (in addition to above)

•        Outside Director serving as Lead Independent Director: $30,000 (in addition to above)

Annual Committee Member Service Retainer

•        Member of the Audit Committee: $10,000

•        Member of the Compensation Committee: $7,500

•        Member of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee: $5,000

Annual Committee Chair Service Retainer (in lieu of Annual Committee Member Service Retainer)

•        Chairperson of the Audit Committee: $20,000

•        Chairperson of the Compensation Committee: $15,000

•        Chairperson of the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee: $10,000

Transitional Equity Grants

Prior to the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders, in lieu of the RSU grants described below, non-employee directors will receive transitional restricted stock unit (“RSU”) grants upon the following terms under the Combined Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan, which will vest, subject to continuous service through the applicable vesting date:

•        Non-employee directors who are elected or appointed to the Combined Company board of directors on or after the Closing (but before the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders) will be granted RSUs initially valued at $125,000, which will vest in three equal annual instalments from the date of grant.

•        Non-employee directors who serve on or after the Closing will be granted RSUs initially valued at $125,000 multiplied by the number of whole months that the non-employee director will have served from period beginning on the Closing and ending June 1, 2022, divided by 12. The portion of the RSUs, which has an initial value equal to up to $125,000, will vest on the earlier to occur of June 1, 2022 or the 2022 annual meeting of stockholders and the remaining portion of the RSUs (if any) will vest on June 1, 2021.

Equity Compensation Beginning at the 2022 Annual Stockholder Meeting

As described below, non-employee directors will receive RSU grants under the Combined Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan on and after the Combined Company’s 2022 annual stockholder meeting, annually and upon the beginning of service, which will vest, subject to continuous service through the applicable vesting date:

•        RSUs initially valued at $125,000 upon initial election or appointment to the Combined Company Board, which will vest in three equal annual instalments from the date of grant; and

•        Additional RSUs initially valued at $125,000 annually, which will vest upon the earlier of the first anniversary of the date of grant or the next annual stockholder meeting, prorated for partial years of service (including the initial year of service).

To avoid adverse tax consequences to non-employee directors who reside outside of the U.S., the Combined Company Board, in its sole discretion, may provide for non-statutory stock options of equal value in lieu of RSU grants, which will have a term of ten years from the date of grant and an exercise price per share equal to 100% of the fair market value of the underlying Combined Company Class A common stock on the date of grant. All other terms and conditions that apply to RSU grants under this new non-employee director compensation policy will apply to such options.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The following summary of the material terms of the Combined Company’s securities following the Business Combination is not intended to be a complete summary of the rights and preferences of such securities. The full text of the proposed Combined Company’s Amended and Restated Charter is attached as Annex B to this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus. We urge you to read the proposed charter in its entirety for a complete description of the rights and preferences of the Combined Company’s securities following the Business Combination.

Authorized and Outstanding Stock

The proposed charter authorizes the issuance of Combined Company shares of capital stock, each with a par value of $0.00001, consisting of (a) 250,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, (b) 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock, and (c) 20,000,000 shares of preferred stock. Following the filing of the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware and immediately prior to Closing of the Business Combination, each share of Class B common stock outstanding immediately prior to the filing of the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter will automatically be converted into one share of Class A common stock of SRAC and concurrently with such conversion, the number of authorized shares of Class B common stock will be reduced to zero.

The outstanding shares of SRAC common stock are, and the shares of common stock issuable in connection with the Business Combination and the PIPE Investment will be, duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable. As of the record date for the Special Meeting, there were (i)          shares of SRAC Class A common stock outstanding, held of record by          holders (which amount is inclusive of the number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock underlying the public units set forth in clause (vi) below), (ii) 4,312,500 shares of SRAC Class B common stock outstanding, held of record by two holders, (iii) no shares of preferred stock outstanding, (iv) 545,000 private placement units outstanding, held of record by two holders, (v)         public warrants outstanding, held of record by          holders (which amount is inclusive of the number of public warrants underlying the public units set forth in clause (vi) below) and (vi)          public units outstanding, held of record by          holders. Such numbers do not include DTC participants or beneficial owners holding shares through nominee names.

Pursuant to the terms of SRAC’s existing charter, issued and outstanding shares of SRAC Class B common stock will automatically convert into an equal number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock upon the Closing. Our Sponsor, officers and directors waived any adjustment to the exchange ratio upon conversion of the SRAC Class B common stock into Combined Company Class A common stock pursuant to a letter agreement entered into with SRAC at the time of the IPO.

Combined Company Class A common stock

The proposed Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter provides that the Combined Company Class A common stock will have identical rights, powers, preferences and privileges to current SRAC Class A common stock.

Voting Power

Except as otherwise required by law or as otherwise provided in any certificate of designation for any series of preferred stock, under the existing charter and the proposed charter, the holders of common stock possess or will possess, as applicable, all voting power for the election of directors and all other matters requiring stockholder action and are entitled or will be entitled, as applicable, to one vote per share on matters to be voted on by stockholders. The holders of Combined Company Class A common stock will at all times vote together as one class on all matters submitted to a vote of the common stock under both the existing charter and the proposed charter.

Dividends

Subject to the rights, if any, of the holders of any outstanding shares of preferred stock, under both the existing charter and under the DGCL, holders of common stock will be entitled to receive such dividends and other distributions, if any, as may be declared from time to time by the board of directors of the Combined Company in its discretion out of funds legally available therefor and shall share equally on a per share basis in such dividends and distributions.

245

Table of Contents

Liquidation, Dissolution and Winding Up

In the event of the voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution, or winding-up of the Combined Company, the holders of Combined Company Class A common stock will be entitled to receive all the remaining assets of the Combined Company available for distribution to stockholders, ratably in proportion to the number of shares of common stock held by them, after the rights of creditors of the Combined Company and the holders of the preferred stock, if any, have been satisfied.

Preemptive or Other Rights

The holders of Combined Company Class A common stock will not have preemptive or other subscription rights and there will be no sinking fund or redemption provisions applicable to Combined Company Class A common stock.

Election of Directors

The SRAC Board is currently divided into three classes, Class I, Class II and Class III, with only one class of directors being elected in each year and each class (except for those directors appointed prior to SRAC’s first annual meeting of stockholders) serving a three-year term. Under the existing charter, the term of office of the Class I director will expire at the first annual meeting of stockholders. The term of office of the Class II directors will expire at the second annual meeting of stockholders. The term of office of the Class III directors will expire at the third annual meeting of stockholders.

Following the Closing, the structure of the board of directors of the Combined Company will change, as discussed in greater detail in “Proposal No. 4—The Director Election Proposal.” Under the terms of the proposed charter, upon the effectiveness thereof, (i) the term of office of the Class I directors will expire at the first annual meeting of stockholders following the effectiveness of the proposed charter; (ii) the term of office of the Class II directors will expire at the second annual meeting of stockholders following the effectiveness of the proposed charter; and (iii) the term of office of the Class III directors will expire at the third annual meeting of stockholders following the effectiveness of the proposed charter.

Under both the existing charter and the proposed charter, there is no cumulative voting with respect to the election of directors, with the result that directions will be elected by a plurality of the votes cast at a meeting of stockholders by holders of common stock.

Capital Stock Prior to the Business Combination

Pursuant to SRAC’s existing charter, SRAC’s authorized capital stock consists of 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock, $0.0001 par value, 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock, $0.0001 par value, and 1,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.0001 par value. The following description summarizes the material terms of SRAC’s capital stock. Because it is only a summary, it may not contain all the information that is important to you.

SRAC Units

Each unit had an offering price of $10.00 at the time of the IPO and consists of one share of Class A common stock and one half of one redeemable warrant. Only whole warrants are exercisable. Each whole warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of common stock. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrantholder may exercise his, her or its warrants only for a whole number of shares of common stock. This means that only a whole warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrantholder. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade.

SRAC Founder Shares

The founder shares and private placement shares are identical to the shares of Class A common stock included in the units, and holders of founder shares and private placement shares have the same stockholder rights as public stockholders, except that (i) the founder shares and private placement shares are subject to certain transfer restrictions, as described in more detail below, (ii) SRAC’s sponsor, officers and directors have entered into a letter agreement with us at the time of IPO, pursuant to which they have agreed (A) to waive their redemption rights with respect to any founder shares and private placement shares and any public shares held by them in connection with the completion

246

Table of Contents

of SRAC’s initial business combination, (B) to waive their redemption rights with respect to their founder shares and private placement shares and any public shares in connection with a stockholder vote to approve an amendment to SRAC’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (x) to modify the substance or timing of SRAC’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with SRAC’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of SRAC’s public shares if we do not complete SRAC’s initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO or (y) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity and (C) to waive their rights to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any founder shares held by them if we fail to complete SRAC’s initial business combination within 24 months from the closing of the IPO, although they will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account with respect to any public shares they hold if we fail to complete SRAC’s initial business combination within such time period, (iii) the founder shares are shares of SRAC’s Class B common stock that will automatically convert into shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock at the time of SRAC’s initial business combination, on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment as described herein, and (iv) are entitled to registration rights, SRAC’s sponsor, officers and directors have agreed, if SRAC submits its initial business combination to its public stockholders for a vote, pursuant to the letter agreement to vote any founder shares and private placement shares held by them and any public shares in favor of SRAC’s initial business combination. For more information, please see the section titled “The Business Combination and the Merger Agreement—Certain Agreements Related to the Business Combination—Sponsor Agreement.”

With certain limited exceptions, the founder shares are not transferable, assignable or salable (except to SRAC’s officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with SRAC’s sponsor, each of whom will be subject to the same transfer restrictions) until the earlier of (A) six months after the completion of SRAC’s initial business combination or (B) subsequent to SRAC’s initial business combination, (x) if the last sale price of SRAC’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing after SRAC’s initial business combination, or (y) the date on which SRAC completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange, reorganization or other similar transaction that results in all of SRAC’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property (which clause (A) has been amended by our Sponsor Agreement).

Preferred Shares

Both the existing charter and the proposed charter provide that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. SRAC’s board of directors is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. SRAC’s board of directors will be able to, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of the common stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of SRAC’s board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of existing management. We have no preferred stock outstanding at the date hereof. Although we do not currently intend to issue any shares of preferred stock, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future. No shares of preferred stock have been issued or registered.

Momentus Assumed Options and Warrants

At the Closing, all Momentus stock options (other than a single non-plan option) and warrants will be assumed by the Combined Company and automatically converted into options and warrants to purchase shares of Combined Company Class A common stock, respectively. Such assumed stock options and warrants will continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of the Momentus stock plan, stock option agreement, and/or warrant agreement, as applicable, which governed such securities prior to the Closing.

Subject to the terms of the Merger Agreement, each assumed Momentus option and warrant will cover the number of whole shares of Combined Company Class A common stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) equal to (i) the number of shares of Momentus Class A common stock subject to the applicable Momentus option multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock. The exercise price for each assumed Momentus option and warrant will equal (i) the exercise price of the applicable option or warrant divided by (ii) by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent.

247

Table of Contents

Momentus Assumed Restricted Shares

At the Closing, all restricted shares of Momentus Class A common stock will be assumed by the Combined Company and automatically converted into the number of restricted shares of Combined Company Class A equal to (i) the number of restricted shares of Momentus Class A common stock multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Company Merger Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock. Such assumed restricted shares will continue to be subject to the terms and conditions of the Momentus stock plan, award agreement, or stock restriction agreement, as applicable, which governed such securities prior to the Closing.

Warrants

SRAC Public Warrants

Each whole warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of SRAC’s Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment as discussed below, at any time commencing on the later of 12 months from the closing of the IPO or 30 days after the completion of SRAC’s initial business combination. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrantholder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares of Class A common stock. This means that only a whole warrant may be exercised at any given time by a warrantholder. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the units and only whole warrants will trade.

The warrants will expire five years after the completion of SRAC’s initial business combination, at 5:00 p.m., Eastern Time, or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

SRAC will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to SRAC’s satisfying its obligations described below with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and SRAC will not be obligated to issue shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants. In the event that the conditions in the two immediately preceding sentences are not satisfied with respect to a warrant, the holder of such warrant will not be entitled to exercise such warrant and such warrant may have no value and expire worthless. In no event will SRAC be required to net cash settle any warrant. In the event that a registration statement is not effective for the exercised warrants, the purchaser of a unit containing such warrant will have paid the full purchase price for the unit solely for the share of Class A common stock underlying such unit.

SRAC has not registered the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants. However, SRAC has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of SRAC’s initial business combination, SRAC will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of SRAC’s initial business combination, warrantholders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when SRAC will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of SRAC’s initial business combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when SRAC shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

248

Table of Contents

Once the warrants become exercisable, SRAC may call the warrants for redemption:

•        in whole and not in part;

•        at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption given after the warrants become exercisable (the “30-day redemption period”) to each warrantholder; and

•        if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period commencing once the warrants become exercisable and ending three business days before SRAC sends the notice of redemption to the warrantholders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by us, SRAC may not exercise its redemption right if the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or SRAC is unable to effect such registration or qualification. SRAC will use its best efforts to register or qualify such shares of common stock under the blue sky laws of the state of residence in those states in which the warrants were offered by us in the IPO.

SRAC has established the last of the redemption criterion discussed above to prevent a redemption call unless there is at the time of the call a significant premium to the warrant exercise price. If the foregoing conditions are satisfied and SRAC issues a notice of redemption of the warrants, each warrantholder will be entitled to exercise its warrant prior to the scheduled redemption date. However, the price of the Class A common stock may fall below the $18.00 redemption trigger price (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) as well as the $11.50 warrant exercise price after the redemption notice is issued.

If SRAC calls the warrants for redemption as described above, SRAC’s management will have the option to require any holder that wishes to exercise its warrant to do so on a “cashless basis.” In determining whether to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis,” SRAC’s management will consider, among other factors, its cash position, the number of warrants that are outstanding and the dilutive effect on SRAC’s stockholders of issuing the maximum number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of SRAC’s warrants. If SRAC’s management takes advantage of this option, all holders of warrants would surrender their warrants for that number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. If SRAC’s management takes advantage of this option, the notice of redemption will contain the information necessary to calculate the number of shares of Class A common stock to be received upon exercise of the warrants, including the “fair market value” in such case. Requiring a cashless exercise in this manner will reduce the number of shares to be issued and thereby lessen the dilutive effect of a warrant redemption. SRAC believes this feature is an attractive option to us if SRAC does not need the cash from the exercise of the warrants after SRAC’s initial business combination. If SRAC calls its warrants for redemption and SRAC’s management does not take advantage of this option, SRAC’s sponsor and its permitted transferees would still be entitled to exercise their private placement warrants for cash or on a cashless basis using the same formula described above that other warrantholders would have been required to use had all warrantholders been required to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis, as described in more detail below.

A holder of a warrant may notify us in writing in the event it elects to be subject to a requirement that such holder will not have the right to exercise such warrant, to the extent that after giving effect to such exercise, such person (together with such person’s affiliates), to the warrant agent’s actual knowledge, would beneficially own in excess of 4.9% or 9.8% (or such other amount as a holder may specify) of the shares of Class A common stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such exercise.

If the number of outstanding shares of Class A common stock is increased by a stock dividend payable in shares of Class A common stock, or by a split-up of shares of Class A common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such stock dividend, split-up or similar event, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable on exercise of each whole warrant will be increased in proportion to such increase in the outstanding shares of Class A common stock. A rights offering to holders of Class A common stock entitling holders to purchase shares of Class A

249

Table of Contents

common stock at a price less than the fair market value will be deemed a stock dividend of a number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the product of (i) the number of shares of Class A common stock actually sold in such rights offering (or issuable under any other equity securities sold in such rights offering that are convertible into or exercisable for Class A common stock) and (ii) one (1) minus the quotient of (x) the price per share of Class A common stock paid in such rights offering divided by (y) the fair market value. For these purposes (i) if the rights offering is for securities convertible into or exercisable for Class A common stock, in determining the price payable for Class A common stock, there will be taken into account any consideration received for such rights, as well as any additional amount payable upon exercise or conversion and (ii) fair market value means the volume weighted average price of Class A common stock as reported during the ten trading day period ending on the trading day prior to the first date on which the shares of Class A common stock trade on the applicable exchange or in the applicable market, regular way, without the right to receive such rights.

In addition, if SRAC, at any time while the warrants are outstanding and unexpired, pays a dividend or makes a distribution in cash, securities or other assets to the holders of Class A common stock on account of such shares of Class A common stock (or other shares of SRAC’s capital stock into which the warrants are convertible), other than (a) as described above, (b) certain ordinary cash dividends, (c) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A common stock in connection with a proposed initial business combination, (d) to satisfy the redemption rights of the holders of Class A common stock in connection with a stockholder vote to amend SRAC’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation (i) to modify the substance or timing of SRAC’s obligation to allow redemption in connection with SRAC’s initial business combination or to redeem 100% of SRAC’s Class A common stock if SRAC does not complete its initial business combination within 18 months from the closing of the IPO or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-initial business combination activity, or (e) in connection with the redemption of SRAC’s public shares upon its failure to complete its initial business combination, then the warrant exercise price will be decreased, effective immediately after the effective date of such event, by the amount of cash and/or the fair market value of any securities or other assets paid on each share of Class A common stock in respect of such event.

If the number of outstanding shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock is decreased by a consolidation, combination, reverse stock split or reclassification of shares of Class A common stock or other similar event, then, on the effective date of such consolidation, combination, reverse stock split, reclassification or similar event, the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable on exercise of each warrant will be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares of Class A common stock.

Whenever the number of shares of Class A common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants is adjusted, as described above, the warrant exercise price will be adjusted by multiplying the warrant exercise price immediately prior to such adjustment by a fraction (x) the numerator of which will be the number of shares of Class A common stock purchasable upon the exercise of the warrants immediately prior to such adjustment, and (y) the denominator of which will be the number of shares of Class A common stock so purchasable immediately thereafter.

In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding shares of Class A common stock (other than those described above or that solely affects the par value of such shares of Class A common stock), or in the case of any merger or consolidation of us with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or merger in which SRAC is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of SRAC’s outstanding shares of Class A common stock), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the assets or other property of us as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which SRAC is dissolved, the holders of the warrants will thereafter have the right to purchase and receive, upon the basis and upon the terms and conditions specified in the warrants and in lieu of the shares of SRAC’s Class A common stock immediately theretofore purchasable and receivable upon the exercise of the rights represented thereby, the kind and amount of shares of stock or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, merger or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, that the holder of the warrants would have received if such holder had exercised their warrants immediately prior to such event. If less than 70% of the consideration receivable by the holders of Class A common stock in such a transaction is payable in the form of Class A common stock in the successor entity that is listed for trading on a national securities exchange or is quoted in an established over-the-counter market, or is to be so listed for trading or quoted immediately following such event, and if the registered holder of the warrant properly exercises the warrant within thirty days following public disclosure of such transaction, the warrant exercise price will be reduced as specified in the warrant agreement based on the Black-Scholes value (as defined in the warrant agreement) of the warrant. The purpose of such exercise price

250

Table of Contents

reduction is to provide additional value to holders of the warrants when an extraordinary transaction occurs during the exercise period of the warrants pursuant to which the holders of the warrants otherwise do not receive the full potential value of the warrants in order to determine and realize the option value component of the warrant. This formula is to compensate the warrant holder for the loss of the option value portion of the warrant due to the requirement that the warrant holder exercise the warrant within 30 days of the event. The Black-Scholes model is an accepted pricing model for estimating fair market value where no quoted market price for an instrument is available.

The warrants will be issued in registered form under a warrant agreement between Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company, as warrant agent, and us. The warrant agreement provides that the terms of the warrants may be amended without the consent of any holder to cure any ambiguity or correct any defective provision, but requires the approval by the holders of at least a majority of the then outstanding public warrants to make any change that adversely affects the interests of the registered holders of public warrants.

In addition, if (x) SRAC issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of SRAC’s initial business combination at a Newly Issued Price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by SRAC’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to SRAC’s sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any founder shares held by SRAC’s sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance), (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of SRAC’s initial business combination on the date of the consummation of SRAC’s initial business combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the Market Value is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price described above will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price. The warrants may be exercised upon surrender of the warrant certificate on or prior to the expiration date at the offices of the warrant agent, with the exercise form on the reverse side of the warrant certificate completed and executed as indicated, accompanied by full payment of the exercise price (or on a cashless basis, if applicable), by certified or official bank check payable to us, for the number of warrants being exercised. The warrantholders do not have the rights or privileges of holders of Class A common stock and any voting rights until they exercise their warrants and receive shares of Class A common stock. After the issuance of shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of the warrants, each holder will be entitled to one (1) vote for each share held of record on all matters to be voted on by stockholders.

No fractional shares will be issued upon exercise of the warrants. If, upon exercise of the warrants, a holder would be entitled to receive a fractional interest in a share, SRAC will, upon exercise, round down to the nearest whole number of shares of Class A common stock to be issued to the warrantholder.

SRAC Private Placement Warrants

Except as described below, the private placement warrants have terms and provisions that are identical to those of the warrants sold as part of the units in the IPO, including as to exercise price, exercisability and exercise period. The private placement warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the private placement warrants) will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of SRAC’s initial business combination (except, among other limited exceptions, to SRAC’s officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with SRAC’s sponsor). They will also be exercisable on a cashless basis and will not be redeemable by us so long as they are held by SRAC’s sponsor or its permitted transferees. SRAC’s sponsor or its permitted transferees, have the option to exercise the private placement warrants on a cashless basis. If the private placement warrants are held by holders other than the sponsor or its permitted transferees, the private placement warrants will be redeemable by us and exercisable by the holders on the same basis as the warrants included in the units sold in the IPO.

If holders of the private placement warrants elect to exercise them on a cashless basis, they would surrender their warrants for that number of shares of Class A common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the Class A common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of warrant exercise is sent to the warrant agent. The reason that we have agreed that these warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis so long as they are held by the sponsor or its permitted transferees is because it is not known at this time whether they will be affiliated with us following

251

Table of Contents

an initial business combination. If they remain affiliated with us, their ability to sell SRAC’s securities in the open market will be significantly limited. We expect to have policies in place that prohibit insiders from selling SRAC’s securities except during specific periods of time. Even during such periods of time when insiders will be permitted to sell SRAC’s securities, an insider cannot trade in SRAC’s securities if he or she is in possession of material non-public information. Accordingly, unlike public stockholders who could sell the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants freely in the open market, the insiders could be significantly restricted from doing so. As a result, we believe that allowing the holders to exercise such warrants on a cashless basis is appropriate.

In order to finance transaction costs in connection with an intended initial business combination, SRAC’s sponsor or an affiliate of SRAC’s sponsor or certain of SRAC’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan us funds as may be required. Up to $1,500,000 of such loans may be convertible into units, at a price of $10.00 per unit at the option of the lender, upon consummation of SRAC’s initial business combination. The units would be identical to the private placement units. However, as the units would not be issued until consummation of SRAC’s initial business combination, any warrants underlying such units would not be able to be voted on an amendment to the warrant agreement in connection with such business combination.

SRAC’s sponsor has agreed not to transfer, assign or sell any of the private placement warrants (including the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of any of these warrants) until the date that is 30 days after the date we complete SRAC’s initial business combination, except, among other limited exceptions, transfers made to SRAC’s officers and directors and other persons or entities affiliated with SRAC’s sponsor.

Dividends

SRAC has not paid any cash dividends on its common stock to date and does not intend to pay cash dividends prior to the completion of an initial business combination. The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon SRAC’s revenues and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial conditions subsequent to completion of an initial business combination. The payment of any cash dividends subsequent to an initial business combination will be within the discretion of SRAC’s board of directors at such time. If SRAC incurs any indebtedness, SRAC’s ability to declare dividends may be limited by restrictive covenants SRAC may agree to in connection therewith.

Transfer Agent and Warrant Agent

The transfer agent for SRAC’s common stock and warrant agent for SRAC’s warrants is Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company. SRAC has agreed to indemnify Continental Stock Transfer & Trust Company in its roles as transfer agent and warrant agent, its agents and each of its stockholders, directors, officers and employees against all claims and losses that may arise out of acts performed or omitted for its activities in that capacity, except for any liability due to any gross negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith of the indemnified person or entity.

Certain Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law, SRAC’s Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws

Provisions of the DGCL and SRAC’s existing charter and bylaws as well as provisions of the proposed charter and proposed bylaws could make it more difficult to acquire SRAC (or the Combined Company, as applicable) by means of a tender offer, a proxy contest or otherwise, or to remove incumbent officers and directors. These provisions, summarized below, are intended to discourage coercive takeover practices and inadequate takeover bids and to encourage persons seeking to acquire control of the Combined Company to first negotiate with the board of directors. SRAC believes that the benefits of these provisions outweigh the disadvantages of discouraging certain takeover or acquisition proposals because, among other things, negotiation of these proposals could result in an improvement of their terms and enhance the ability of our board of directors to maximize stockholder value. However, these provisions may delay, deter or prevent a merger or acquisition of us that a stockholder might consider is in its best interest, including those attempts that might result in a premium over the prevailing market price of the SRAC Class A common stock.

Pursuant to the existing charter and the proposed charter, SRAC is subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL, which we refer to as “Section 203,” regulating corporate takeovers. Section 203 prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

•        A stockholder who owns fifteen percent (15%) or more of SRAC’s outstanding voting stock (otherwise known as an “interested stockholder”);

252

Table of Contents

•        an affiliate of an interested stockholder; or

•        an associate of an interested stockholder, for three years following the date that the stockholder became an interested stockholder.

A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of more than ten percent (10%) of SRAC’s assets.

However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

•        the SRAC Board approves the transaction that made the stockholder an “interested stockholder,” prior to the date of the transaction;

•        after the completion of the transaction that resulted in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder, that stockholder owned at least 85% of SRAC’s voting stock outstanding at the time the transaction commenced, other than statutorily excluded shares of common stock; or

•        on or subsequent to the date of the transaction, the Business Combination is approved by the SRAC Board and authorized at a meeting of SRAC stockholder, and not by written consent, by an affirmative vote of two-thirds of the outstanding voting stock not owned by the interested stockholder.

In addition, both SRAC’s existing charter and the proposed charter provide for certain other provisions that may have an anti-takeover effect:

•        a classified board of directors whose members serve staggered three-year terms;

•        the authorization of “blank check” preferred stock, which could be issued by the Combined Company’s board of directors without stockholder approval and may contain voting, liquidation, dividend and other rights superior to our Class A common stock;

•        a limitation on the ability of, and providing indemnification to, our directors and officers;

•        a requirement that special meetings of our stockholders can be called only by our board of directors acting by a written resolution by a majority the Combined Company’s directors then in office), the Chairperson of the Combined Company’s board of directors, the Combined Company’s Chief Executive Officer or our Lead Independent Director;

•        a requirement of advance notice of stockholder proposals for business to be conducted at meetings of the Combined Company’s stockholders and for nominations of candidates for election to the Combined Company’s board of directors;

•        a requirement that our directors may be removed only for cause and by a two-thirds (2/3) vote of the stockholders;

•        a prohibition on stockholder action by written consent;

•        a requirement that vacancies on our board of directors may be filled only by a majority of directors then in office or by a sole remaining director (subject to limited exceptions), even though less than a quorum; and

•        a requirement of the approval of the Combined Company board of directors or the holders of at least two-thirds of our outstanding shares of capital stock to amend the Combined Company Amended and Restated Bylaws and certain provisions of the Combined Company Amended and Restated Charter.

Rule 144

Pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act (“Rule 144”), a person who has beneficially owned restricted Class A common stock or warrants of the Combined Company for at least six months would be entitled to sell their securities provided that (i) such person is not deemed to have been one of our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale and (ii) we are subject to the Exchange Act periodic reporting requirements for at least three months before the sale and have filed all required reports under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the 12 months (or such shorter period as we were required to file reports) preceding the sale.

253

Table of Contents

Persons who have beneficially owned restricted Class A common stock or warrants of the Combined Company for at least six months but who are our affiliates at the time of, or at any time during the three months preceding, a sale, would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of securities that does not exceed the greater of:

•        1% of the total number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock then outstanding; or

•        the average weekly reported trading volume of Combined Company Class A common stock during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale.

Sales by our affiliates under Rule 144 are also limited by manner of sale provisions and notice requirements and to the availability of current public information about us.

Restrictions on the Use of Rule 144 by Shell Companies or Former Shell Companies

Rule 144 is not available for the resale of securities initially issued by shell companies (other than business combination related shell companies) or issuers that have been at any time previously a shell company. However, Rule 144 also includes an important exception to this prohibition if the following conditions are met:

•        the issuer of the securities that was formerly a shell company has ceased to be a shell company;

•        the issuer of the securities is subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act;

•        the issuer of the securities has filed all Exchange Act reports and material required to be filed, as applicable, during the preceding 12 months (or such shorter period that the issuer was required to file such reports and materials), other than Form 8-K reports; and

•        at least one year has elapsed from the time that the issuer filed current Form 10-type information with the SEC reflecting its status as an entity that is not a shell company.

As of the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, SRAC had 16,704,520 shares of Class A common stock outstanding, 545,480 public units outstanding and 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock outstanding. All of the 4,312,500 founder shares and 545,000 private placement shares owned by the Sponsor, SRAC Partners and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. are restricted securities under Rule 144, in that they were issued in private transactions not involving a public offering. If the Business Combination is approved, the Combined Company Class A common stock we issue to the investors in connection with the PIPE Investment will be restricted securities for purposes of Rule 144 and the Combined Company Class A common stock that stockholders of Momentus receive in connection with the Business Combination will be freely tradable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act, except for any shares issued to our affiliates within the meaning of Rule 144.

As of the date of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus, there are 8,897,500 warrants of SRAC outstanding, consisting of 8,625,000 public warrants originally sold as part of the units issued in the IPO, inclusive of the full exercise of the underwriters’ over-allotment option, and 272,500 private placement warrants that were sold in a private sale to the Sponsor and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. in connection with the IPO, including in connection with the full exercise of the over-allotment option. Each warrant entitles the registered holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, in accordance with the terms of the warrant agreements governing the warrants. 8,625,000 of these warrants are public warrants and are freely tradable. In addition, we will be obligated to file no later than 30 days after the Closing a registration statement under the Securities Act covering the 8,625,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock that may be issued upon the exercise of the public warrants, and cause such registration statement to become effective and maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until the expiration of the public warrants.

SRAC anticipates that following the Closing, the Combined Company will no longer be a shell company, and so, once the conditions set forth in the exceptions listed above are satisfied, Rule 144 will become available for the resale of the above-noted restricted securities.

Registration Rights

At the consummation of the Mergers, SRAC, Sponsor, certain existing holder(s) of SRAC capital stock (including SRAC Partners) and certain Company stockholders, in each case who will receive SRAC Class A common stock pursuant to the Merger Agreement and the transactions contemplated thereby will enter into the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement in respect of the shares of SRAC Class A common stock issued to Sponsor and such Company stockholders in connection with the transactions set forth above. Pursuant to such agreement, such holders and their permitted transferees will be entitled to certain customary registration rights, including, among other things, demand, shelf and piggy-back rights, subject to cut-back provisions. Pursuant to the Amended and Restated Registration Rights Agreement, Sponsor and SRAC Partners will agree not to sell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of shares of SRAC Class A common stock or other securities exercisable therefor for certain time periods specified therein.

Listing of Securities

Upon the Closing, SRAC intends to apply to continue the listing of its publicly traded Combined Company Class A common stock and the public warrants on Nasdaq under the symbols “MNTS” and “MNTSW” upon the Closing. As a result, our publicly traded units will separate into the component securities upon the Closing and, as a result, will no longer trade as a separate security.

SECURITY OWNERSHIP OF CERTAIN BENEFICIAL OWNERS AND MANAGEMENT

The following table sets forth information regarding (i) the actual beneficial ownership of SRAC Class A common stock and Class B common stock as of October 23, 2020, and (ii) expected beneficial ownership of Combined Company Class A common stock immediately following the Closing of the below-listed individuals and/or entities, assuming, alternatively, (x) no SRAC Share Redemptions (i.e., in the no redemption scenario) and (y) all but 7,474,651 public shares are elected to be redeemed by SRAC stockholders, which would equal the maximum number of SRAC Share Redemptions that could occur without a failure to satisfy the minimum cash condition set forth in the Merger Agreement (i.e., in the maximum redemption scenario):

•        each person who is, or is expected to be, the beneficial owner of more than five percent (5%) of the outstanding shares of SRAC common stock or Combined Company Class A common stock;

•        each of SRAC’s current executive officers and directors;

•        each person who will become an executive officer or director of the Combined Company upon the Closing; and

•        all current executive officers and directors of SRAC, as a group, and all executive officers and directors of the Combined Company following the Closing, as a group.

Beneficial ownership is determined according to the rules of the SEC, which generally provide that a person has beneficial ownership of a security if he, she or it possesses sole or shared voting or investment power over that security, including options and warrants that are currently exercisable within 60 days. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, shares subject to options and warrants held by that person that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable within 60 days of October 23, 2020, are deemed outstanding, while such shares are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing percentage ownership of any other person.

The beneficial ownership of shares of SRAC common stock pre-Business Combination is based on 22,107,500 shares of SRAC common stock (including 16,704,520 shares of SRAC Class A common stock, 4,312,500 founder shares, 545,480 public units and 545,000 private placement units) issued and outstanding as of October 23, 2020.

The expected beneficial ownership of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock post-Business Combination assuming each of the no redemption scenario and the maximum redemption scenario (a) include the 1,437,500 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock representing the Sponsor Earnout Shares, and (b) assume (1) (x) in the case of the no redemption scenario, no public shares are elected to be redeemed by SRAC stockholders and (y) in the case of the maximum redemption scenario, all but 7,474,651 public shares are elected to be redeemed by SRAC stockholders, (2) the issuance of 17,500,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock to the PIPE Investors in the PIPE Investment, for aggregate gross proceeds of $175,000,000, (3) that the amount of Momentus’ cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash as determined in accordance with GAAP, any cash being held on behalf of Momentus’ customers and any security deposit for leases) as of the Closing will be equal to $26,800,000, (4) that the amount of Momentus’ indebtedness (calculated as payoff amounts for indebtedness for borrowed money) as of the Closing will be equal to $1,594,364, (5) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Sponsor Agreement, on the basis of the assumptions set forth in clause (b) hereof with respect to the PIPE Investment and SRAC Share Redemptions, resulting in the surrender (x) in the case of the no redemption scenario, of no shares of SRAC Class B common stock and (y) in the case of the maximum redemption scenario, of 1,437,500 shares of SRAC Class B common stock, (6) that immediately after the Closing, the total number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock outstanding will be equal to (x) in the case of the no redemption scenario, approximately 141,627,373 and (y) in the case of the maximum redemption scenario, approximately 133,414,524 and (7) the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Repurchase Agreement, on the basis of the assumptions set forth in clause (b) hereof with respect to the SRAC Share Redemptions, resulting in the repurchase (x) in the case of the no redemption scenario, of 3,000,000 shares of Combined Company Class A common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement immediately following the Closing and (y) in the case of the maximum redemption scenario, of no shares of Combined Company Class A common stock pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement. In the event that the parties consummate the Business Combination, SRAC estimates the number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock potentially issuable as of the Closing as consideration to Momentus’ securityholders to be equal to 105,019,873 (3,000,000 of which would immediately be repurchased by SRAC in the no redemption scenario pursuant to the Repurchase Agreement).

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Appraisal Rights

SRAC’s stockholders do not have appraisal rights in connection with the Business Combination under Delaware law.

Momentus’ stockholders will have appraisal rights in connection with the Business Combination under Delaware law.

Although Momentus is incorporated in the state of Delaware, Section 2115 of the CCC, or Section 2115, purports to require corporations incorporated in another jurisdiction with a specified nexus to California, including Momentus, to comply with a number of California’s statutory corporate law provisions, including dissenter’s rights. Based on information available to Momentus as of December 11, 2020, Momentus would be subject to Section 2115 as of such date based on the tests establishing nexus set forth in Section 2115. Under California law, if Momentus is subject to Section 2115 at the Effective Time, a holder of Momentus capital stock may have the right to dissent from the Business Combination by exercising dissenters’ rights. Under Section 181 of the CCC, the Business Combination constitutes a “reorganization” of Momentus and Chapter 13 of the CCC provides appraisal rights for Momentus stockholders dissenting from a reorganization under certain circumstances. However, there have been various court decisions by both Delaware and California courts which may limit or eliminate the applicability of Section 2115 to corporations such as Momentus that are incorporated in Delaware. In May 2005, the Delaware Supreme Court in Vantage Point Venture Partners 1996 v. Examen, Inc. held that Section 2115(b) violates the Delaware internal affairs doctrine, which provides that only the State of Delaware has the authority to regulate a Delaware corporation’s internal affairs, and thus Section 2115(b) does not apply to Delaware corporations. If followed by California courts, this ruling would mean that the dissenters’ rights sections of the CCC do not apply to Momentus and its stockholders.

No Momentus stockholder who has validly exercised its appraisal rights pursuant to Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC (a “Dissenting Stockholder”) with respect to its Momentus stock (such shares, “Dissenting Shares”) will be entitled to receive any portion of the Merger Consideration with respect to the Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder unless and until such Dissenting Stockholder will have effectively withdrawn or lost its appraisal rights under the DGCL or CCC. Each Dissenting Stockholder will be entitled to receive only the payment resulting from the procedure set forth in Section 262 of the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC with respect to the Dissenting Shares owned by such Dissenting Stockholder. Momentus will give SRAC and its Sponsor, (i) prompt notice of any written demands for appraisal, attempted withdrawals of such demands, and any other instruments served pursuant to applicable laws that are received by Momentus relating to any Dissenting Stockholder’s rights of appraisal and (ii) the opportunity to direct all negotiations and proceedings with respect to demand for appraisal under the DGCL or Chapter 13 of the CCC. Momentus will not, except with the prior written consent of SRAC and its Sponsor, voluntarily make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal, offer to settle or settle any such demands or approve any withdrawal of any such demands.

Delivery of Documents to Stockholders

Unless SRAC has received contrary instructions, SRAC may send a single copy of this proxy statement/consent solicitation statement/prospectus to any household at which two or more stockholders reside if SRAC believes the stockholders are members of the same family. This process, known as “householding,” reduces the volume of duplicate information received at any one household and helps to reduce SRAC’s expenses. However, if stockholders prefer to receive multiple sets of disclosure documents at the same address this year or in future years, the stockholders should follow the instructions described below. Similarly, if an address is shared with another stockholder and together both of the stockholders would like to receive only a single set of SRAC’s disclosure documents, the stockholders should follow these instructions:

If the shares are registered in the name of the stockholder, the stockholder may notify SRAC of their request by calling or writing SRAC at its principal executive offices at (883) 478-2253 or 1345 Abbot Kinney Boulevard, Venice, California, 90291; or

If a bank, broker or other nominee holds the shares, the stockholder should contact the bank, broker or other nominee directly.

Submission of Stockholder Proposals

The SRAC Board is aware of no other matter that may be brought before the Special Meeting. Under Delaware law, only business that is specified in the notice of Special Meeting to stockholders may be transacted at the Special Meeting.

Future Stockholder Proposals

If the Business Combination is completed, you will be entitled to attend and participate in the Combined Company’s annual meetings of stockholders. If we hold a 2020 annual meeting of stockholders, we will provide notice of or otherwise publicly disclose the date on which the 2020 annual meeting will be held. If the 2020 annual meeting is held, stockholder proposals will be eligible for consideration by the directors for inclusion in the proxy statement for the 2020 annual meeting in accordance with Rule 14a-8 under the Exchange Act.

Stockholders and interested parties may communicate with SRAC’s board of directors, any committee chairperson or the non-management directors as a group by writing to the board or committee chairperson in care of Stable Road Acquisition Corp., 1345 Abbot Kinney Boulevard, Venice, California 90291. Following the Business Combination, such communications should be sent in care of Momentus Inc. 3050 Kenneth Street, Santa Clara, California 95054. Each communication will be forwarded, depending on the subject matter, to the board of directors, the appropriate committee chairperson or all non-management directors.

SEPTEMBER 30, 2020
(Unaudited)

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Stable Road Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 28, 2019. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company is focusing its search on companies in the cannabis industry. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of September 30, 2020, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity through September 30, 2020 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, identifying a target company for a Business Combination, and the proposed acquisition of Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Momentus”), as more fully discussed in Note 9. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 7, 2019. On November 13, 2019, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 17,250,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 2,250,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $172,500,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 545,000 units (the “Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit in a private placement to SRC-NI Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”), the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering, generating gross proceeds of $5,450,000, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $10,924,857, consisting of $3,450,000 of underwriting fees, $6,900,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $574,857 of other offering costs. In addition, as of September 30, 2020, cash of $780,336 was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for working capital purposes.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on November 13, 2019, an amount of $172,500,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

The Company will provide holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account ($10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations, less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5), Placement Shares (as defined in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

If the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares, Placement Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (i) that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company will have until May 13, 2021 to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, it will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s

remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Sponsor has agreed to waive its liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and (along with Cantor) Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor acquires Public Shares after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to its deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets less taxes payable. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering will not execute agreements with the Company waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account.

Going Concern

In connection with the Company’s assessment of going concern considerations in accordance with Financial Accounting Standard Board’s Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15, “Disclosures of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern,” the Company has until May 13, 2021 to consummate a Business Combination. It is uncertain that the Company will be able to consummate a Business Combination by this time. If a Business Combination is not consummated by this date, there will be a mandatory liquidation and subsequent dissolution of the Company. Management has determined that the mandatory liquidation, should a Business Combination not occur, and potential subsequent dissolution raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. No adjustments have been made to the carrying amounts of assets or liabilities should the Company be required to liquidate after May 13, 2021.

Certain information or footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been

condensed or omitted, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC for interim financial reporting. Accordingly, they do not include all the information and footnotes necessary for a complete presentation of financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. In the opinion of management, the accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements include all adjustments, consisting of a normal recurring nature, which are necessary for a fair presentation of the financial position, operating results and cash flows for the periods presented.

The accompanying unaudited condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019 as filed with the SEC on March 26, 2020, which contains the audited financial statements and notes thereto. The financial information as of December 31, 2019 is derived from the audited financial statements presented in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. The interim results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020 or for any future interim periods.

Emerging Growth Company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of condensed financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Common Stock Subject to Possible Redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock held by Public Stockholders features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 16,224,373 and 16,211,250 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively, presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s condensed balance sheets.

Offering Costs

Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the closing date of the Initial Public Offering that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs amounting to $10,924,857 were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

Income Taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized. As of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company had a deferred tax asset of approximately $208,000 and $24,000, respectively, which had a full valuation allowance recorded against it of approximately $208,000 and $24,000, respectively.

The Company’s current taxable income primarily consists of interest income on the Trust Account. The Company’s general and administrative costs are generally considered start-up costs and are not currently deductible. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recorded income tax expense of approximately $2,000 and $179,000, respectively, primarily related to interest income earned on the Trust Account. The Company’s effective tax rate of (1)% and 58% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, differs from the expected income tax rate due to the start-up costs (discussed above) which are not currently deductible. The provision for income taxes was deemed to be de minimis for the three months ended September 30, 2019 and for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through September 30, 2019.

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

Net Income (Loss) per Common Share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company has not considered the effect of warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and as part of the Placement Units to purchase 8,897,500 shares of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share, since the exercise of such warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.

The Company’s unaudited condensed statements of operations include a presentation of income (loss) per share for common shares subject to redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income per share. Net income per common share, basic and diluted, for Class A redeemable common stock held by Public Stockholders for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account of $61,541 and $1,087,154, respectively, net of applicable franchise and income taxes of approximately $2,000 and $179,000, respectively, for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, by the weighted average number of shares of Class A redeemable common stock held by Public Stockholders since issuance. Net loss per common share, basic and diluted, for Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing net (loss) income for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 of ($164,610) and $131,233, less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock of $9,332 and $757,749, respectively, by the weighted average number of Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock outstanding for the periods. Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock includes the Founder Shares and the shares included in the Placement Units as these shares do not have any redemption features and do not participate in the income earned on the Trust Account.

Concentration of Credit Risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Fair Value of Financial Instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurement,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying condensed balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s condensed financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 17,250,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its option to purchase an additional 2,250,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and Cantor purchased an aggregate of 545,000 Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $5,450,000. Each Placement Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock (“Placement Share”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Placement Warrant”). Each whole Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The proceeds from the Placement Units were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Placement Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Placement Units and all underlying securities will be worthless.

In June 2019, the Sponsor purchased 4,312,500 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B common stock for an aggregate price of $25,000. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holders, on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments, as described in Note 7.

The Founder Shares included up to 562,500 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriter’s over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor would own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding Placement Shares included in the Placement Units). As a result of the underwriter’s election to fully exercise its over-allotment option, the 562,500 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Related Party Loans

On June 28, 2019, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of December 31, 2019 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Borrowings outstanding under the Promissory Note of $222,725 were repaid upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering on November 13, 2019.

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been

determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units upon consummation of the Business Combination at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Placement Units. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loans as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement whereby, commencing on November 8, 2019 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and administrative support. For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred $30,000 and $90,000, respectively, in fees for these services, of which $0 and $20,000, are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying condensed balance sheets at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES

Risks and Uncertainties

Management continues to evaluate the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or completion of a business combination, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on November 7, 2019, the holders of the Founder Shares, Placement Units (including securities contained therein) and units (including securities contained therein) that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A common stock and warrants (and underlying Class A common stock) that may be issued upon conversion of the units issued as part of the Working Capital Loans and Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Founder Shares, are entitled to registration rights, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to Class A common stock). The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cantor may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five (5) and seven (7) years after the effective date of the registration statement and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter was paid a cash underwriting discount of $3,450,000, or $0.20 per Unit of the gross proceeds from the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.40 per Unit of the gross proceeds from the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, or $6,900,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY

Preferred Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 1,000,000 shares of preferred stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share with such designations, voting and other rights and preferences as may be determined from time to time by the Company’s board of directors. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were no shares of preferred stock issued or outstanding.

Class A Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 100,000,000 shares of Class A common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class A common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 1,570,627 and 1,583,750 shares of Class A common stock issued or outstanding, excluding 16,224,373 and 16,211,250 shares of common stock subject to possible redemption, respectively.

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, there were 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders except as required by law.

The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering (not including the shares of Class A common stock underlying the Placement Units) plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, any private placement-equivalent warrants issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, any private placement equivalent securities issued to the Sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to the Company).

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to cause such registration statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A

NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (cont.)

common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

•        in whole and not in part;

•        at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and

•        if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may not exercise its redemption right if the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or the Company is unable to effect such registration or qualification.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), and (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the shares of Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates a Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (cont.)

The Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Placement Warrants and the Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

NOTE 8. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC Topic 320 “Investments - Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying condensed balance sheets and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.

At September 30, 2020, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $179 in cash and $173,084,223 in U.S. Treasury securities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company withdrew $848,763 of interest income from the Trust Account to pay for franchise taxes.

At December 31, 2019, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $873 in cash and $172,845,138 in U.S. Treasury securities. During the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, the Company did not withdraw any interest income from the Trust Account.

The gross holding gains and fair value of held-to-maturity securities at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 are as follows:

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:

 

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:

 

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:

 

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

NOTE 9. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the unaudited condensed financial statements were issued. Based upon this review, other than as described below, the Company did not identify subsequent events that would have required adjustment or disclosure in the unaudited condensed financial statements. Capitalized terms used in this Note 9 but not otherwise defined herein have the meanings given to them in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

On October 7, 2020, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Company, Project Marvel First Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“First Merger Sub”), Project Marvel Second Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Second Merger Sub”), and Momentus, pursuant to which: (a) First Merger Sub will merge with and into Momentus (the “First Merger”), with Momentus being the surviving corporation of the First Merger (such company, in its capacity as the surviving corporation of the First Merger, the “Surviving Corporation”) and (b) immediately following the First Merger and as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Second Merger Sub (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”), with Second Merger Sub being the surviving company of the Second Merger. The transactions set forth in the Merger Agreement, including the Mergers, will constitute a “Business Combination” as contemplated by the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation.

Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the aggregate merger consideration payable to the equityholders of Momentus will be paid in equity consideration equal to $1,131,000,000, minus Momentus’ indebtedness for borrowed money as of the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”), plus the amount of Momentus’ cash and cash equivalents (excluding restricted cash as determined in accordance with GAAP, any cash being held on behalf of Momentus’ customers and any security deposits for leases) as of the Closing, plus the aggregate exercise price of all outstanding options and warrants (the “Merger Consideration”). The Merger Consideration payable to the stockholders of Momentus will be paid in shares of newly issued Class A common stock of the Company (“Parent Class A Common Stock”), with a deemed value of $10 per share. In addition, the Company will pay off, or cause to be paid off, on behalf of Momentus and in connection with the Closing, Momentus’ outstanding indebtedness for borrowed money.

On October 7, 2020, the Company entered into Subscription Agreements with certain investors pursuant to which the investors have agreed to purchase an aggregate of 17,500,000 shares of Parent Class A Common Stock in a private placement for $10.00 per share, including 1,000,000 shares which were agreed to be purchased by SRAC PIPE Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company.

The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants by the parties thereto and the Closing is subject to certain conditions as further described in the Merger Agreement.

Report of Independent Registered Public Accounting Firm

To the Stockholders and the Board of Directors of Stable Road Acquisition Corp.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheet of Stable Road Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019, and the related statements of operations, changes in stockholders’ equity and cash flows, for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audit we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audit included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audit also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS

Stable Road Acquisition Corp. (the “Company”) was incorporated in Delaware on May 28, 2019. The Company was formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses (the “Business Combination”).

Although the Company is not limited to a particular industry or sector for purposes of consummating a Business Combination, the Company intends is focusing its search on companies in the cannabis industry. The Company is an early stage and emerging growth company and, as such, the Company is subject to all of the risks associated with early stage and emerging growth companies.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company had not commenced any operations. All activity for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019 relates to the Company’s formation, the initial public offering (“Initial Public Offering”), which is described below, and identifying a target company for a Business Combination. The Company will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial Business Combination, at the earliest. The Company generates non-operating income in the form of interest income from the proceeds derived from the Initial Public Offering.

The registration statement for the Company’s Initial Public Offering was declared effective on November 7, 2019. On November 13, 2019, the Company consummated the Initial Public Offering of 17,250,000 units (the “Units” and, with respect to the shares common stock included in the Units sold, the “Public Shares”), which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of the over-allotment option to purchase an additional 2,250,000 Units, at $10.00 per Unit, generating gross proceeds of $172,500,000, which is described in Note 3.

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Company consummated the sale of 545,000 units (the “Placement Units”) at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit in a private placement to SRC-NI Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (the “Sponsor”), and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor”), the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering, generating gross proceeds of $5,450,000, which is described in Note 4.

Transaction costs amounted to $10,924,857, consisting of $3,450,000 of underwriting fees, $6,900,000 of deferred underwriting fees and $574,857 of other offering costs. In addition, as of December 31, 2019, cash of $1,093,184 was held outside of the Trust Account (as defined below) and is available for working capital purposes.

Following the closing of the Initial Public Offering on November 13, 2019, an amount of $172,500,000 ($10.00 per Unit) from the net proceeds of the sale of the Units in the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Placement Units was placed in a trust account (“Trust Account”) and invested only in U.S. government securities, within the meaning set forth in Section 2(a)(16) of the Investment Company Act, with a maturity of 180 days or less or in any open-ended investment company that holds itself out as a money market fund selected by the Company meeting the conditions of Rule 2a-7 of the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Investment Company Act”), as determined by the Company, until the earlier of: (i) the completion of a Business Combination and (ii) the distribution of the Trust Account, as described below.

The Company’s management has broad discretion with respect to the specific application of the net proceeds of the Initial Public Offering and the sale of the Placement Units, although substantially all of the net proceeds are intended to be applied generally toward consummating a Business Combination. There is no assurance that the Company will be able to complete a Business Combination successfully. The Company must complete one or more initial Business Combinations having an aggregate fair market value of at least 80% of the assets held in the Trust Account (excluding the deferred underwriting commissions and taxes payable on interest earned on the Trust Account) at the time of the agreement to enter into the initial Business Combination. The Company will only complete a Business Combination if the post-transaction company owns or acquires 50% or more of the outstanding voting securities of the target or otherwise acquires a controlling interest in the target sufficient for it not to be required to register as an investment company under the Investment Company Act.

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

The Company will provide holders of the outstanding Public Shares (the “Public Stockholders”) with the opportunity to redeem all or a portion of their Public Shares upon the completion of a Business Combination either (i) in connection with a stockholder meeting called to approve the Business Combination or (ii) by means of a tender offer. The decision as to whether the Company will seek stockholder approval of a Business Combination or conduct a tender offer will be made by the Company, solely in its discretion. The Public Stockholders will be entitled to redeem their Public Shares for a pro rata portion of the amount then in the Trust Account ($10.00 per Public Share, plus any pro rata interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations, less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses). The per-share amount to be distributed to Public Stockholders who redeem their Public Shares will not be reduced by the deferred underwriting commissions the Company will pay to the underwriter (as discussed in Note 6). There will be no redemption rights upon the completion of a Business Combination with respect to the Company’s warrants.

The Company will proceed with a Business Combination if the Company has net tangible assets of at least $5,000,001 either immediately prior to or upon such consummation of a Business Combination and, if the Company seeks stockholder approval, a majority of the shares voted are voted in favor of the Business Combination. If a stockholder vote is not required by law and the Company does not decide to hold a stockholder vote for business or other legal reasons, the Company will, pursuant to its Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”), conduct the redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and file tender offer documents with the SEC prior to completing a Business Combination. If, however, stockholder approval of the transaction is required by law, or the Company decides to obtain stockholder approval for business or legal reasons, the Company will offer to redeem shares in conjunction with a proxy solicitation pursuant to the proxy rules and not pursuant to the tender offer rules. If the Company seeks stockholder approval in connection with a Business Combination, the Company’s Sponsor has agreed to vote its Founder Shares (as defined in Note 5), Placement Shares (as defined in Note 4) and any Public Shares purchased during or after the Initial Public Offering in favor of approving a Business Combination. Additionally, each Public Stockholder may elect to redeem their Public Shares irrespective of whether they vote for or against the proposed transaction.

If the Company seeks stockholder approval of a Business Combination and it does not conduct redemptions pursuant to the tender offer rules, the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that a Public Stockholder, together with any affiliate of such stockholder or any other person with whom such stockholder is acting in concert or as a “group” (as defined under Section 13 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)), will be restricted from redeeming its shares with respect to more than an aggregate of 15% or more of the Public Shares, without the prior consent of the Company.

The Sponsor has agreed (a) to waive its redemption rights with respect to its Founder Shares, Placement Shares and Public Shares held by it in connection with the completion of a Business Combination and (b) not to propose an amendment to the Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (i) that would affect the substance or timing of the Company’s obligation to redeem 100% of its Public Shares if the Company does not complete a Business Combination or (ii) with respect to any other provision relating to stockholders’ rights or pre-business combination activity, unless the Company provides the Public Stockholders with the opportunity to redeem their Public Shares in conjunction with any such amendment.

The Company will have until May 13, 2021 to complete a Business Combination (the “Combination Period”). However, if the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, it will (i) cease all operations except for the purpose of winding up, (ii) as promptly as reasonably possible but not more than ten business days thereafter, redeem the Public Shares, at a per-share price, payable in cash, equal to the aggregate amount then on deposit in the Trust Account including interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account and not previously released to the Company to pay its tax obligations (less up to $100,000 of interest to pay dissolution expenses), divided by the number of then outstanding Public Shares, which redemption will completely extinguish Public Stockholders’ rights as stockholders (including the right to receive further liquidating distributions, if any), subject to applicable law, and (iii) as promptly as reasonably possible following such redemption, subject to the approval of the Company’s remaining stockholders and the Company’s board of directors, dissolve and liquidate, subject in each case to the

F-24

NOTE 1. DESCRIPTION OF ORGANIZATION AND BUSINESS OPERATIONS (cont.)

Company’s obligations under Delaware law to provide for claims of creditors and the requirements of other applicable law. There will be no redemption rights or liquidating distributions with respect to the Company’s warrants, which will expire worthless if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period.

The Sponsor has agreed to waive its liquidation rights with respect to the Founder Shares and (along with Cantor) Placement Shares if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. However, if the Sponsor acquires Public Shares after the Initial Public Offering, such Public Shares will be entitled to liquidating distributions from the Trust Account if the Company fails to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period. The underwriter has agreed to waive its rights to its deferred underwriting commission (see Note 6) held in the Trust Account in the event the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and, in such event, such amounts will be included with the other funds held in the Trust Account that will be available to fund the redemption of the Public Shares. In the event of such distribution, it is possible that the per share value of the assets remaining available for distribution will be less than the Initial Public Offering price per Unit ($10.00).

In order to protect the amounts held in the Trust Account, the Sponsor has agreed to be liable to the Company if and to the extent any claims by a third party for services rendered or products sold to the Company, or a prospective target business with which the Company has entered into a written letter of intent, confidentiality or similar agreement or business combination agreement, reduce the amount of funds in the Trust Account to below the lesser of (i) $10.00 per Public Share and (ii) the actual amount per Public Share held in the Trust Account as of the date of the liquidation of the Trust Account, if less than $10.00 per share due to reductions in the value of the trust assets less taxes payable. This liability will not apply with respect to any claims by a third party or prospective target business who executed a waiver of any and all rights to the monies held in the Trust Account (whether or not such waiver is enforceable) or to any claims under the Company’s indemnity of the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Company will seek to reduce the possibility that the Sponsor will have to indemnify the Trust Account due to claims of creditors by endeavoring to have all vendors, service providers, prospective target businesses or other entities with which the Company does business, execute agreements with the Company waiving any right, title, interest or claim of any kind in or to monies held in the Trust Account. The Company’s independent registered public accounting firm and the underwriter of the Initial Public Offering will not execute agreements with the Company waiving such claims to the monies held in the Trust Account.

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of presentation

The accompanying financial statements are presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC.

Emerging growth company

The Company is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (the “JOBS Act”), and it may take advantage of certain exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies including, but not limited to, not being required to comply with the independent registered public accounting firm attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in its periodic reports and proxy statements, and exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and stockholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved.

Further, Section 102(b)(1) of the JOBS Act exempts emerging growth companies from being required to comply with new or revised financial accounting standards until private companies (that is, those that have not had a Securities Act registration statement declared effective or do not have a class of securities registered under the Exchange Act) are

F-25

Table of Contents

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

required to comply with the new or revised financial accounting standards. The JOBS Act provides that a company can elect to opt out of the extended transition period and comply with the requirements that apply to non-emerging growth companies but any such election to opt out is irrevocable. The Company has elected not to opt out of such extended transition period which means that when a standard is issued or revised and it has different application dates for public or private companies, the Company, as an emerging growth company, can adopt the new or revised standard at the time private companies adopt the new or revised standard. This may make comparison of the Company’s financial statements with another public company which is neither an emerging growth company nor an emerging growth company which has opted out of using the extended transition period difficult or impossible because of the potential differences in accounting standards used.

Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.

Making estimates requires management to exercise significant judgment. It is at least reasonably possible that the estimate of the effect of a condition, situation or set of circumstances that existed at the date of the financial statements, which management considered in formulating its estimate, could change in the near term due to one or more future events. Accordingly, the actual results could differ significantly from those estimates.

Common stock subject to possible redemption

The Company accounts for its common stock subject to possible redemption in accordance with the guidance in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 480 “Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity.” Common stock subject to mandatory redemption is classified as a liability instrument and is measured at fair value. Conditionally redeemable common stock (including common stock that features redemption rights that is either within the control of the holder or subject to redemption upon the occurrence of uncertain events not solely within the Company’s control) is classified as temporary equity. At all other times, common stock is classified as stockholders’ equity. The Company’s Class A common stock held by Public Stockholders features certain redemption rights that are considered to be outside of the Company’s control and subject to occurrence of uncertain future events. Accordingly, at December 31, 2019, 16,211,250 shares of Class A common stock subject to possible redemption is presented as temporary equity, outside of the stockholders’ equity section of the Company’s balance sheet.

Offering costs

Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred through the balance sheet date that are directly related to the Initial Public Offering. Offering costs amounting to $10,924,857 were charged to stockholders’ equity upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering.

Income taxes

The Company follows the asset and liability method of accounting for income taxes under ASC Topic 740, “Income Taxes.” Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for the estimated future tax consequences attributable to differences between the financial statements carrying amounts of existing assets and liabilities and their respective tax bases. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that included the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established, when necessary, to reduce deferred tax assets to the amount expected to be realized.

F-26

Table of Contents

STABLE ROAD ACQUISITION CORP.
Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (cont.)

ASC 740 prescribes a recognition threshold and a measurement attribute for the financial statement recognition and measurement of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in a tax return. For those benefits to be recognized, a tax position must be more likely than not to be sustained upon examination by taxing authorities. The Company recognizes accrued interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits as income tax expense. There were no unrecognized tax benefits and no amounts accrued for interest and penalties as of December 31, 2019. The Company is currently not aware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviation from its position. The Company is subject to income tax examinations by major taxing authorities since inception.

Net income (loss) per common share

Net income (loss) per common share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares of common stock outstanding for the period. The Company has not considered the effect of warrants sold in the Initial Public Offering and as part of the Placement Units to purchase 8,897,500 shares of Class A common stock in the calculation of diluted income (loss) per share, since the exercise of the warrants are contingent upon the occurrence of future events and the inclusion of such warrants would be anti-dilutive.

The Company’s statement of operations includes a presentation of income (loss) per share for common shares subject to redemption in a manner similar to the two-class method of income per share. Net income per common share, basic and diluted for Class A redeemable common stock held by Public Stockholders is calculated by dividing the interest income earned on the Trust Account of $346,011 net of applicable franchise and income taxes of approximately $167,000 for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, by the weighted average number of Class A redeemable common stock held by Public Stockholders since issuance. Net loss per common share, basic and diluted for Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock is calculated by dividing the net income (loss) of $62,359, less income attributable to Class A redeemable common stock of $178,942, by the weighted average number of Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock outstanding for the period. Class A and Class B non-redeemable common stock includes the Founder Shares and the shares included in the Placement Units as these shares do not have any redemption features and do not participate in the income earned on the Trust Account.

Concentration of credit risk

Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentrations of credit risk consist of a cash account in a financial institution, which, at times, may exceed the Federal Depository Insurance Coverage of $250,000. At December 31, 2019, the Company has not experienced losses on this account and management believes the Company is not exposed to significant risks on such account.

Financial instruments

The fair value of the Company’s assets and liabilities, which qualify as financial instruments under ASC Topic 820, “Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures,” approximates the carrying amounts represented in the accompanying balance sheets, primarily due to their short-term nature.

Recent accounting pronouncements

Management does not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective, accounting pronouncements, if currently adopted, would have a material effect on the Company’s financial statements.

NOTE 3. INITIAL PUBLIC OFFERING

Pursuant to the Initial Public Offering, the Company sold 17,250,000 Units, which includes the full exercise by the underwriter of its option to purchase an additional 2,250,000 Units at $10.00 per Unit. Each Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Public Warrant”). Each whole Public Warrant entitles the holder to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share, subject to adjustment (see Note 7).

NOTE 4. PRIVATE PLACEMENT

Simultaneously with the closing of the Initial Public Offering, the Sponsor and Cantor purchased an aggregate of 545,000 Placement Units at a price of $10.00 per Placement Unit, for an aggregate purchase price of $5,450,000. Each Placement Unit consists of one share of Class A common stock (“Placement Share”) and one-half of one redeemable warrant (“Placement Warrant”). Each whole Placement Warrant is exercisable to purchase one share of Class A common stock at a price of $11.50 per share. The proceeds from the Placement Units were added to the proceeds from the Initial Public Offering held in the Trust Account. If the Company does not complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period, the proceeds from the sale of the Placement Units will be used to fund the redemption of the Public Shares (subject to the requirements of applicable law), and the Placement Units and all underlying securities will be worthless.

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Founder Shares

In June 2019, the Sponsor purchased 4,312,500 shares (the “Founder Shares”) of the Company’s Class B common stock for an aggregate price of $25,000. The Founder Shares will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination, or earlier at the option of the holders, on a one-for-one basis, subject to certain adjustments, as described in Note 7.

The Founder Shares included up to 562,500 shares subject to forfeiture to the extent that the underwriter’s over-allotment option was not exercised in full or in part, so that the Sponsor would own, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the Company’s issued and outstanding shares after the Initial Public Offering (assuming the Sponsor did not purchase any Public Shares in the Initial Public Offering and excluding Placement Shares included in the Placement Units). As a result of the underwriter’s election to fully exercise its over-allotment option, 562,500 Founder Shares are no longer subject to forfeiture.

The Sponsor has agreed, subject to limited exceptions, not to transfer, assign or sell any of its Founder Shares until the earlier to occur of: (A) one year after the completion of a Business Combination or (B) subsequent to a Business Combination, (x) if the last sale price of the Class A common stock equals or exceeds $12.00 per share (as adjusted for stock splits, stock dividends, reorganizations, recapitalizations and the like) for any 20 trading days within any 30-trading day period commencing at least 150 days after a Business Combination, or (y) the date on which the Company completes a liquidation, merger, capital stock exchange or other similar transaction that results in all of the Company’s stockholders having the right to exchange their shares of common stock for cash, securities or other property.

Related Party Loans

On June 28, 2019, the Sponsor agreed to loan the Company an aggregate of up to $300,000 to cover expenses related to the Initial Public Offering pursuant to a promissory note (the “Promissory Note”). The Promissory Note was non-interest bearing and payable on the earlier of December 31, 2019 or the completion of the Initial Public Offering. Borrowings outstanding under the Promissory Note of $222,725 were repaid upon the consummation of the Initial Public Offering on November 13, 2019.

Notes to Financial Statements

NOTE 5. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS (cont.)

In addition, in order to finance transaction costs in connection with a Business Combination, the Sponsor or an affiliate of the Sponsor, or certain of the Company’s officers and directors may, but are not obligated to, loan the Company funds as may be required (“Working Capital Loans”). If the Company completes a Business Combination, the Company would repay the Working Capital Loans out of the proceeds of the Trust Account released to the Company. Otherwise, the Working Capital Loans would be repaid only out of funds held outside the Trust Account. In the event that a Business Combination does not close, the Company may use a portion of proceeds held outside the Trust Account to repay the Working Capital Loans but no proceeds held in the Trust Account would be used to repay the Working Capital Loans. Except for the foregoing, the terms of such Working Capital Loans, if any, have not been determined and no written agreements exist with respect to such loans. The Working Capital Loans would either be repaid upon consummation of a Business Combination, without interest, or, at the lender’s discretion, up to $1,500,000 of such Working Capital Loans may be convertible into units upon consummation of the Business Combination at a price of $10.00 per unit. The units would be identical to the Placement Units. There were no outstanding borrowings under the Working Capital Loans as of December 31, 2019.

Administrative Support Agreement

The Company entered into an agreement whereby, commencing on November 8, 2019 through the earlier of the Company’s consummation of a Business Combination or its liquidation, the Company will pay an affiliate of the Sponsor a total of $10,000 per month for office space, utilities and administrative support. For the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, the Company incurred $20,000 in fees for these services, which amount is included in accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet.

NOTE 6. COMMITMENTS

Registration Rights

Pursuant to a registration rights agreement entered into on November 7, 2019, the holders of the Founder Shares, Placement Units (including securities contained therein) and units (including securities contained therein) that may be issued upon conversion of Working Capital Loans, and any shares of Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants and any shares of Class A common stock and warrants (and underlying Class A common stock) that may be issued upon conversion of the units issued as part of the Working Capital Loans and Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of the Founder Shares, are entitled to registration rights, requiring the Company to register such securities for resale (in the case of the Founder Shares, only after conversion to Class A common stock). The holders of the majority of these securities are entitled to make up to three demands, excluding short form demands, that the Company register such securities. In addition, the holders have certain “piggy-back” registration rights with respect to registration statements filed subsequent to the completion of a Business Combination and rights to require the Company to register for resale such securities pursuant to Rule 415 under the Securities Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Cantor may not exercise its demand and “piggyback” registration rights after five (5) and seven (7) years after the effective date of the registration statement and may not exercise its demand rights on more than one occasion. The Company will bear the expenses incurred in connection with the filing of any such registration statements.

Underwriting Agreement

The underwriter was paid a cash underwriting discount of $3,450,000, or $0.20 per Unit of the gross proceeds from the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering. In addition, the underwriter is entitled to a deferred fee of $0.40 per Unit of the gross proceeds from the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, or $6,900,000 in the aggregate. The deferred fee will become payable to the underwriter from the amounts held in the Trust Account solely in the event that the Company completes a Business Combination, subject to the terms of the underwriting agreement.

Class B Common Stock — The Company is authorized to issue 10,000,000 shares of Class B common stock with a par value of $0.0001 per share. Holders of Class B common stock are entitled to one vote for each share. At December 31, 2019, there were 4,312,500 shares of Class B common stock issued and outstanding.

Holders of Class A common stock and Class B common stock will vote together as a single class on all matters submitted to a vote of stockholders except as required by law.

The shares of Class B common stock will automatically convert into shares of Class A common stock at the time of a Business Combination on a one-for-one basis, subject to adjustment. In the case that additional shares of Class A common stock, or equity-linked securities, are issued or deemed issued in excess of the amounts offered in the Initial Public Offering and related to the closing of a Business Combination, the ratio at which shares of Class B common stock shall convert into shares of Class A common stock will be adjusted (unless the holders of a majority of the outstanding shares of Class B common stock agree to waive such adjustment with respect to any such issuance or deemed issuance) so that the number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon conversion of all shares of Class B common stock will equal, in the aggregate, on an as-converted basis, 20% of the sum of the total number of all shares of common stock outstanding upon the completion of the Initial Public Offering (not including the shares of Class A common stock underlying the Placement Units) plus all shares of Class A common stock and equity-linked securities issued or deemed issued in connection with a Business Combination (excluding any shares or equity-linked securities issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, any private placement-equivalent warrants issued, or to be issued, to any seller in a Business Combination, any private placement equivalent securities issued to the Sponsor or its affiliates upon conversion of loans made to the Company).

Warrants — Public Warrants may only be exercised for a whole number of shares. No fractional warrants will be issued upon separation of the Units and only whole warrants will trade. The Public Warrants will become exercisable on the later of (a) 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination or (b) 12 months from the closing of the Initial Public Offering. The Public Warrants will expire five years after the completion of a Business Combination or earlier upon redemption or liquidation.

The Company will not be obligated to deliver any shares of Class A common stock pursuant to the exercise of a warrant and will have no obligation to settle such warrant exercise unless a registration statement under the Securities Act with respect to the shares of Class A common stock underlying the warrants is then effective and a prospectus relating thereto is current, subject to the Company satisfying its obligations with respect to registration. No warrant will be exercisable and the Company will not be obligated to issue shares of Class A common stock upon exercise of a warrant unless Class A common stock issuable upon such warrant exercise has been registered, qualified or deemed to be exempt under the securities laws of the state of residence of the registered holder of the warrants.

The Company has agreed that as soon as practicable, but in no event later than 15 business days after the closing of a Business Combination, the Company will use its best efforts to file with the SEC a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants, to cause such registration

NOTE 7. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (cont.)

statement to become effective and to maintain a current prospectus relating to those shares of Class A common stock until the warrants expire or are redeemed, as specified in the warrant agreement. If a registration statement covering the shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective by the 60th business day after the closing of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company will have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a “cashless basis” in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act or another exemption.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a registration statement covering the Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants is not effective within a specified period following the consummation of a Business Combination, warrant holders may, until such time as there is an effective registration statement and during any period when the Company shall have failed to maintain an effective registration statement, exercise warrants on a cashless basis pursuant to the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, provided that such exemption is available. If that exemption, or another exemption, is not available, holders will not be able to exercise their warrants on a cashless basis.

Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may redeem the Public Warrants:

•        in whole and not in part;

•        at a price of $0.01 per warrant;

•        upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption; and

•        if, and only if, the reported last sale price of the Company’s Class A common stock equals or exceeds $18.00 per share for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending three business days before the Company sends the notice of redemption to the warrant holders.

If and when the warrants become redeemable by the Company, the Company may not exercise its redemption right if the issuance of shares of common stock upon exercise of the warrants is not exempt from registration or qualification under applicable state blue sky laws or the Company is unable to effect such registration or qualification.

If the Company calls the Public Warrants for redemption, management will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise the Public Warrants to do so on a “cashless basis,” as described in the warrant agreement. The exercise price and number of shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of the warrants may be adjusted in certain circumstances including in the event of a stock dividend, or recapitalization, reorganization, merger or consolidation. However, the warrants will not be adjusted for issuance of Class A common stock at a price below its exercise price. Additionally, in no event will the Company be required to net cash settle the warrants. If the Company is unable to complete a Business Combination within the Combination Period and the Company liquidates the funds held in the Trust Account, holders of warrants will not receive any of such funds with respect to their warrants, nor will they receive any distribution from the Company’s assets held outside of the Trust Account with the respect to such warrants. Accordingly, the warrants may expire worthless.

In addition, if (x) the Company issues additional shares of Class A common stock or equity-linked securities for capital raising purposes in connection with the closing of a Business Combination at an issue price or effective issue price of less than $9.20 per share of Class A common stock (with such issue price or effective issue price to be determined in good faith by the Company’s board of directors and, in the case of any such issuance to the Sponsor or its affiliates, without taking into account any Founder Shares held by the Sponsor or such affiliates, as applicable, prior to such issuance) (the “Newly Issued Price”), and (y) the aggregate gross proceeds from such issuances represent more than 60% of the total equity proceeds, and interest thereon, available for the funding of a Business Combination on the date of the consummation of a Business Combination (net of redemptions), and (z) the volume weighted average trading price of the shares of Class A common stock during the 20 trading day period starting on the trading day prior to the day on which the Company consummates a Business Combination (such price, the “Market Value”) is below $9.20 per

share, the exercise price of the warrants will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 115% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price, and the $18.00 per share redemption trigger price will be adjusted (to the nearest cent) to be equal to 180% of the higher of the Market Value and the Newly Issued Price.

The Placement Warrants are identical to the Public Warrants underlying the Units sold in the Initial Public Offering, except that the Placement Warrants and the Class A common stock issuable upon the exercise of the Placement Warrants will not be transferable, assignable or salable until 30 days after the completion of a Business Combination, subject to certain limited exceptions. Additionally, the Placement Warrants will be exercisable on a cashless basis and be non-redeemable so long as they are held by the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees. If the Placement Warrants are held by someone other than the initial purchasers or their permitted transferees, the Placement Warrants will be redeemable by the Company and exercisable by such holders on the same basis as the Public Warrants.

As of December 31, 2019, the Company did not have any U.S. federal and state net operating loss carryovers available to offset future taxable income.

In assessing the realization of the deferred tax assets, management considers whether it is more likely than not that some portion of all of the deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during the periods in which temporary differences representing net future deductible amounts become deductible. Management considers the scheduled reversal of deferred tax liabilities, projected future taxable income and tax planning strategies in making this assessment. After consideration of all of

NOTE 8. INCOME TAX (cont.)

the information available, management believes that significant uncertainty exists with respect to future realization of the deferred tax assets and has therefore established a full valuation allowance. For the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, the change in the valuation allowance was $24,483.

A reconciliation of the federal income tax rate to the Company’s effective tax rate for the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019 is as follows:

The Company files income tax returns in the U.S. federal jurisdiction and is subject to examination by the various taxing authorities.

NOTE 9. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The Company classifies its U.S. Treasury and equivalent securities as held-to-maturity in accordance with ASC Topic 320 “Investments — Debt and Equity Securities.” Held-to-maturity securities are those securities which the Company has the ability and intent to hold until maturity. Held-to-maturity treasury securities are recorded at amortized cost on the accompanying balance sheets and adjusted for the amortization or accretion of premiums or discounts.

At December 31, 2019, assets held in the Trust Account were comprised of $873 in cash and $172,845,138 in U.S. Treasury Securities. During the period from May 28, 2019 (inception) through December 31, 2019, the Company did not withdraw any interest income from the Trust Account.

The gross holding gains and fair value of held-to-maturity securities at December 31, 2019 are as follows:

 

Held-To-Maturity

 

Amortized
Cost

 

Gross
Holding
Gains

$

172,845,138

 

$

13,410

 

$

172,858,548

The fair value of the Company’s financial assets and liabilities reflects management’s estimate of amounts that the Company would have received in connection with the sale of the assets or paid in connection with the transfer of the liabilities in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. In connection with measuring the fair value of its assets and liabilities, the Company seeks to maximize the use of observable inputs (market data obtained from independent sources) and to minimize the use of unobservable inputs (internal assumptions about how market participants would price assets and liabilities). The following fair value hierarchy is used to classify assets and liabilities based on the observable inputs and unobservable inputs used in order to value the assets and liabilities:

Level 1:

 

Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. An active market for an asset or liability is a market in which transactions for the asset or liability occur with sufficient frequency and volume to provide pricing information on an ongoing basis.

Level 2:

 

Observable inputs other than Level 1 inputs. Examples of Level 2 inputs include quoted prices in active markets for similar assets or liabilities and quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in markets that are not active.

Level 3:

 

Unobservable inputs based on our assessment of the assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

NOTE 10. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS

The Company evaluated subsequent events and transactions that occurred after the balance sheet date up to the date that the financial statements were issued.

Management is currently evaluating the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the industry and has concluded that while it is reasonably possible that the virus could have a negative effect on the Company’s financial position, results of its operations and/or search for a target company, the specific impact is not readily determinable as of the date of these financial statements. The financial statements do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Nature of Operations

Company and Background

Momentus Inc. (“Momentus” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 16, 2017, and is headquartered in Santa Clara, California. The Company is a first mover in offering in-space infrastructure services that will be important to enable the commercialization of space. The Company plans to partner with launch providers and seeks to offer a range of in-space services, including transportation services, satellite-as-a-service and in-orbit services. The Company’s vehicles will be equipped with new electric propulsion system (microwave electrothermal) which uses water as a propellant.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Unaudited Interim Financial Information

The accompanying condensed financial statements have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 was derived from the Company’s audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP for audited financial statements. Any reference in these notes to applicable guidance is meant to refer to the authoritative GAAP as found in the Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) and Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) of the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”).

The unaudited interim condensed financial statements have been prepared on the same basis as the audited financial statements. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the accompanying unaudited interim condensed financial statements contain all adjustments that are necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2020, and the net loss, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019. Such adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. The results for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results for the year ending December 31, 2020, or for any future period. These interim condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements as of and for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior year’s financial statements to conform to the current year’s presentation.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the financial statements include, but are not limited to, accounting for useful lives of property, plant and equipment, net, accrued liabilities, income taxes including deferred tax assets and liabilities and impairment valuation and stock-based awards.

COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, a novel strain of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) was characterized by the World Health Organization as a global pandemic. As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the U.S. government and various states implemented quarantine requirements and travel restrictions. The extent of the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s financial statements will depend on future developments, including the duration and spread of the outbreak and the impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. The potential impact and duration of COVID-19 on the Company’s operations is inherently difficult to predict and could adversely impact the Company’s business, financial condition or results of operations.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Revenue Recognition

The Company enters into short-term contracts for ‘last-mile’ satellite and cargo delivery, payload hosting and in-orbit servicing options with customers that are primarily in the aerospace industry. From inception to September 30, 2020, the Company has not completed a commercial launch of customer cargo and as a result, has not recognized revenue to date. However, as of September 30, 2020 the Company has signed contracts with customers and has collected $2,390,118 in customer deposits, which are recorded as current and non-current contract liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet and will be recognized as revenue (along with any other fees that have been paid) upon the earlier of the satisfaction of the Company’s performance obligation or when the customer cancels the contract. There are no refund or recourse provisions that enable our customers to recover any non-refundable fees that are paid.

The Company accounts for customer contracts in accordance with ASC Topic 606, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which includes the following five-step model:

•        Identification of the contract, or contracts, with a customer.

•        Identification of the performance obligations in the contract.

•        Determination of the transaction price.

•        Allocation of the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract.

•        Recognition of revenue when, or as, the Company satisfies a performance obligation.

The Company’s contracts are cancellable for convenience by the customer and typically do not contain variable consideration. However, the full transaction price is collected in advance of the scheduled launch and all fees that are paid are non-refundable (and are not limited to deposits), regardless if the contract is cancelled by the customer or in the event a performance obligation is not satisfied by the Company.

The Company’s services are considered a single performance obligation, to transport the customers’ payload to a specified orbit in space. The Company recognizes revenue at a point in time when control is transferred, which is considered to be upon the release of the customers’ payload into its specified orbit. The Company will calculate the weight distribution of each transfer vehicle at the customer level, and will estimate the delivery date for each customer’s payload based on the relative weight of payloads released to determine the point in time to recognize revenue for each payload release.

In periods in which the Company recognizes revenue, the Company will disclose the amounts of revenue recognized that was included as a contract liability balance at the beginning of the reporting period in accordance with ASC 606-10-50-8(b).

Deferred Fulfillment and Prepaid Launch Costs

The Company prepays for certain launch costs to third party providers that will carry the transport vehicle to orbit. Prepaid costs allocated to the delivery of a customers’ payload are classified as deferred fulfillment costs and recognized as cost of revenue upon delivery of the customers’ payload. Prepaid costs allocated to the Company’s payload are classified as prepaid launch costs and are amortized to research and development expense upon the release of the Company’s payload. The allocation is determined based on the distribution between customer and Company payload weight on each launch.

As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the Company had $6,190,000 and $3,535,550, respectively of deferred fulfillment and prepaid launch costs in the accompanying balance sheets.

MOMENTUS INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Contract Liabilities

Customer deposits collected prior to the release of the customers’ payload into its specified orbit are recorded as current and non-current contract liabilities in the Company’s balance sheet as the amounts received represent a prepayment for the satisfaction of a future performance obligation that has not yet commenced. Each non-refundable deposit is determined to be a contract liability upon cash collection. Prior to making this determination, the Company ensures that a valid contract is in place that meets the definition of the existence of a contract in accordance with ASC 606-10-25-1 and 2.

Fair value measurements

The Company follows ASC 820-10, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures, which among other things, defines fair value, establishes a consistent framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosure for each major asset and liability category measured at fair value on either a recurring or nonrecurring basis. Fair value is an exit price, representing the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants. As such, fair value is a market-based measurement determined based on assumptions that market participants would use in pricing an asset or liability.

Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

•        Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities in active markets.

•        Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

•        Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, and certain prepaid and other current assets and accrued expenses approximate carrying values because of their short-term nature. The carrying value of certain other non-current assets and liabilities approximates fair value. The Company’s SAFE note liabilities are marked-to-market liabilities pursuant to ASC 480 and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the Company is using a backsolve method within the Black Scholes Option Pricing model, which allowed the Company to solve for the implied value of the business based on the terms of the SAFE investments. Significant unobservable inputs include volatility and expected term. The Company’s warrant are recorded as a derivative liability pursuant to ASC 815 and are classified within Level 3 of the fair value hierarchy as the Company is using the Black Scholes Option Pricing model. Significant unobservable inputs include stock price, volatility and expected term.

Cost of revenue

Cost of revenue consists primarily of expenses associated with the cost of the transport vehicle and third-party launch costs. Until the transport vehicle design is completed and released for production, the cost of these transport vehicles is being expensed as research and development costs as materials and services are received. The current design and technology allow for a single use of the transport vehicle.

Advertising Expenses

Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was $73,882 and $88,769, respectively.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Leases

The Company leases real estate facilities under non-cancellable operating leases with various expiration dates through fiscal year 2022. The Company determines if an arrangement contains a lease at inception based on whether there is an identified property, plant or equipment and whether the Company controls the use of the identified asset throughout the period of use.

The Company adopted the Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842) on January 1, 2020. The Company elected the package of practical expedients for transition under which the Company did not reassess its prior conclusions about lease identification, lease classification and initial direct costs. Additionally, the Company elected the hindsight practical expedient for transition under which conclusions around lease term and impairment will not be reassessed.

Operating leases are included in the accompanying balance sheets. Operating lease right of use (“ROU”) assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and are included in other non-current assets. Lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease and are included in current and non-current liabilities. Operating lease ROU assets and lease liabilities are recognized at the lease inception date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term discounted based on the more readily determinable of (i) the rate implicit in the lease or (ii) the Company’s incremental borrowing rate (which is the estimated rate the Company would be required to pay for a collateralized borrowing equal to the total lease payments over the term of the lease). Because the Company’s operating leases generally do not provide an implicit rate, the Company estimates its incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at lease commencement date for borrowings with a similar term.

The Company’s operating lease ROU assets are measured based on the corresponding operating lease liability adjusted for (i) payments made to the lessor at or before the commencement date, (ii) initial direct costs incurred and (iii) tenant incentives under the lease. The Company does not assume renewals or early terminations unless it is reasonably certain to exercise these options at commencement. The Company elected the practical expedient which allows the Company to not allocate consideration between lease and non-lease components. Variable lease payments are recognized in the period in which the obligation for those payments are incurred. In addition, the Company elected the practical expedient such that it does not recognize ROU assets or lease liabilities for leases with a term of 12 months or less of all asset classes. Operating lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Deferred Offering Costs

Offering costs consist of legal, accounting, underwriting fees and other costs incurred that are directly related to the Company’s planned merger transaction (See Note 14). These costs will be charged to stockholders’ equity (deficit) upon the completion of the merger. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 the Company incurred offering costs of $979,442. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had $921,768 and $57,674 and of offering costs in accounts payable and accrued expenses, respectively, in the accompanying balance sheets.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with authoritative guidance, which requires the use of the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rate expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the differences are expected to be reversed.

Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, management considers all available evidence, including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies.

MOMENTUS INC.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

In the event that management changes its determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the Company will adjust its valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

The Company is required to evaluate the tax positions taken in the course of preparing its tax returns to determine whether tax positions are “more likely than not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the “more likely than not” threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The amount recognized is subject to estimate and management judgment with respect to the likely outcome of each uncertain tax position.

The amount that is ultimately sustained for an individual uncertain tax position or for all uncertain tax positions in the aggregate could differ from the amount that is initially recognized.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Net loss per share is provided in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”. The Company’s preferred shares are participating securities as the holders of the preferred shares are entitled to participate in dividends with ordinary shares. Net losses are not allocated to the preferred shares as the holders of the preferred shares do not have a contractual obligation to share in any losses. Accordingly, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing losses available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive as shown below:

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing operating performance. In consideration of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, “Segment Reporting,” we are not organized around specific services or geographic regions. We currently operate in one service line providing in-space transportation services.

Our chief operating decision maker uses condensed financial information to evaluate our performance, which is the same basis on which our results and performance are communicated to our Board of Directors. Based on the information described above and in accordance with the applicable literature, management has concluded that we are organized and operated as one operating and reportable segment.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the accounting for income taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in income taxes. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company does not expect the adoption of this standard to have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the guidance on the issuer’s accounting for convertible debt instruments by removing the separation models for (1) convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, entities will not separately present in equity, an embedded conversion feature in such debt. Instead, they will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt, unless certain other conditions are met. The elimination of these models will reduce reported interest expense and increase reported net income for entities that have issued a convertible instrument that was within the scope of those models before the adoption of ASU 2020-06. Also, ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share and treasury stock method will be no longer available. The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about lease arrangements. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, using the modified retrospective approach and has elected to use the optional transition method which allows the Company to apply the guidance of ASC 840, including disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification related to agreements entered prior to adoption.

The adoption of the new standard resulted in recognition of operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of $545,707 and $555,916, respectively, as of January 1, 2020. There was no material cumulative impact of transition to accumulated deficit as of the adoption date. The standard did not materially impact the accompanying statements of operations and had no impact on the accompanying statements of cash flows.

NOTES TO THE CONDENSED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 8. SAFE Notes

The Company has issued Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”) notes to investors. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company issued SAFE notes to investors with aggregate proceeds of $44,650,000. The SAFE notes allow the investors to participate in future equity financings through a share-settled redemption of the amount invested at a discounted price to the price paid by other investors. That is, upon a future equity financing involving preferred shares, SAFE notes settle into a number of preferred shares equal to the invested amount of the SAFE note divided by a discounted price to the price investors pay to purchase preferred shares in the financing (with such discounted price calculated as a percentage of the price investors pay to purchase preferred shares in the financing or by reference to a valuation cap). Alternatively, upon the occurrence of a change of control or an initial public offering (other than a qualified financing), the investors shall have the option to receive either (i) cash payment equal to the invested amount under such SAFE note, or (ii) a number of shares of common stock equal to the invested amount divided by the liquidity price set forth in the applicable SAFE notes.

The Company determined that the SAFE notes are not a legal form debt (i.e., no creditors’ rights). The SAFE notes include a provision allowing for cash redemption upon the occurrence of a change of control, the occurrence of which is outside the control of the Company. The provision requires the SAFE notes to be classified as marked-to-market liabilities pursuant to ASC 480. As of December 31, 2019, the fair value of the SAFE notes was $2,500,000. As of September 30, 2020, the fair value of the SAFE notes was $149,845,145. The loss reported from the increase in the fair value of the SAFE notes for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $102,695,145 and is included in other income (expense) within the accompanying statements of operations.

SAFE notes totaling $7,506,760 were converted into 32,301,028 shares of the Company’s preferred stock in connection with equity financings during the nine months ended September 30, 2019. There were no SAFE notes converted during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. SAFE notes with a principal amount totaling $47,150,000 and $2,500,000 remained outstanding as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Conversion or Cash-out Events

In the event of an equity financing in which the Company issues and sells preferred stock for the purpose of raising capital, the SAFE notes will convert into a series of preferred stock of the Company. The number of shares of preferred stock will be determined by the issuance price of the SAFE notes and the applicable discount on the conversion shares, or valuation cap. There was a 20% discount associated with the SAFE notes issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and their valuation caps were $80,000,000. There was a 20% discount associated with the SAFE notes issued during the nine months ended September 30, 2020. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, SAFE notes with aggregate principal amounts of $9,650,000 and $35,000,000, were issued with valuation caps of $150,000,000 and $300,000,000, respectively.

In the event of a liquidity event (i.e. a change of control or initial public offering), SAFE note holders will receive a portion of the proceeds payable in such liquidity event equal to the greater of the purchase amount of the applicable SAFE notes and the amount payable on the number of shares of common stock equal to the purchase amount divided by the liquidity price set forth in such SAFE notes in exchange for their SAFE notes.

Preference Upon Dissolution

Should the Company dissolve or wind-up operations prior to a conversion or cash-out event, SAFE note holders will be treated like a standard non-participating Preferred Stock.

Embedded and Beneficial Conversion Features

The Company assessed the embedded conversion and redemption features of the SAFE notes to determine if derivative treatment was required pursuant to ASC 815. Per the assessment, no embedded derivatives required bifurcation. The Company further assessed the embedded conversion features of the SAFE notes under ASC 470-20 and determined that contingent beneficial conversion features (BCFs) existed. Upon the conversion of the SAFE notes, the contingency was resolved and the BCFs were measured at their intrinsic value. BCFs associated with converted SAFE notes totaled $568,479 during the nine months ended September 30, 2019 and were recorded as interest expense and additional paid-in-capital. There was no BCFs recorded in the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Note 9. Loan Payable

In March 2020, the Company entered into an equipment financing agreement to fund the acquisition of specific and eligible equipment (“Equipment Loan”). The Equipment Loan provides the Company access to borrow up to $4,500,000. Repayment of any amounts issued under the Equipment Loan occurs over 30 months. Interest under the Equipment Loan is fixed at 9.75% and the borrowings may be prepaid as long as the Company provides written notice to the lender (10) business days prior to the prepayment and the Company pays (a) all accrued and unpaid interest on the equipment loan as of the date of prepayment; plus (b) an amount equal to the total amount of all scheduled but unpaid payments of principal; plus (c) an amount equal to all interest that would have accrued on the equipment loan from the date of prepayment through the last scheduled payment. The Company is also obligated to pay a final amount equivalent to 5 percent of the loan, the final amount is being expensed as interest expense over the term of the Equipment Loan using the effective interest rate. The borrowings are collateralized by all of the equipment financed by the lender. On March 9, 2020, the Company borrowed $1,536,772. The borrowings included an original issuance discount of $49,000. Pursuant to the terms of the Equipment Loan, the first six months of payments are interest only and monthly payments including principal and interest of $57,929 begin September 1, 2020 and end September 1, 2023. Interest payments totaling $84,490 were paid during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

In conjunction with the equipment financing agreement, a stock purchase warrant was also issued to the lender, which allows for the purchase of Series A Preferred Stock or Preferred Stock in a subsequent round of financing in an amount of $225,000. Under the stock purchase warrant agreement, the lender is also provided the right to invest up to an additional $250,000 in the Company’s equity or convertible debt issued in future offerings. The stock purchase warrant expires on March 9, 2030. The warrant’s original fair value of $29,415 was recorded as a derivative liability under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging with the offset recorded as a debt discount (See Note 10).

Additionally, the Company incurred debt issuance costs of $37,659, which were recorded as a direct deduction from the carrying amount of Equipment Loan. The original issuance discount, warrant discount and debt issuance costs are being amortized as interest expense using the effective interest rate method through the term of the loan. Interest expense amortization was $33,784 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

PPP Loan

In May 2020, the Company received a Paycheck Protection Program loan (“PPP Loan”) in the amount of $970,000. The loan was issued under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”). The PPP Loan is subject to forgiveness if the Company uses the funds for applicable expenses outlined in the CARES Act. Any portion of the PPP Loan that is not forgiven must be repaid within two years. The PPP Loan bears interest at 1.0% per annum. In September 2020, the Company repaid the PPP Loan in full.

Stock Purchase Warrant

In March 2020, the Company entered into an equipment financing agreement to fund the acquisition of specific and eligible equipment. The financing agreement provides the Company access to borrow up to $4,500,000. (See Note 9). In conjunction with the equipment financing agreement, a stock purchase warrant was also issued to the lender, which allows for the purchase of 774,527 shares of Series A Preferred Stock or Preferred Stock in a subsequent round of financing in an amount of $225,000. Under the stock purchase warrant agreement, the lender is also provided the right to invest up to an additional $250,000 in the Company’s equity or convertible debt issued in future offerings. The stock purchase warrant expires on March 9, 2030. The warrant is accounted for at fair value as a derivative liability because its features did not meet criteria for equity classification under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. The valuation of the warrant was determined through the use of a Black Scholes options model, which the Company believes approximates fair value. The Company determined that the fair value of the warrant at the issuance date was $29,415. The Company recorded the change in the fair value of the warrant of $1,317,150 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020, to reflect the value of the warrant of $1,346,565 as of September 30, 2020. The change was included in other income (expense) within the accompanying statements of operations. Additionally, there was an immaterial amount of deferred issuance costs allocated to the warrants.

Stock Incentive Plan

In May 2018, the Board of Directors of Momentus Inc. approved the 2018 Stock Plan (the “Initial Plan”) that allowed for granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to employees, directors, and consultants. In November 2018, the Board terminated the Initial Plan such that no additional awards may be granted under the Initial Plan, and adopted a new 2018 Stock Plan (the “New 2018 Stock Plan” and, together with the Initial Plan, the “Plans”). As of December 31, 2018, 30,975,958 shares of Class A common stock were reserved for

During the year ended December 31, 2019, the shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the New 2018 Stock Plan was increased by 4,430,579. Vested options may be exercised in exchange for Class A common stock of the Company. All outstanding and unvested options and RSAs forfeit in the event of employment termination.

In February and March 2020, the Board approved an amendment and restatement to the New 2018 Stock Plan (the “Amended Plan and Restated 2018 Stock Plan”), and further amendments thereto that increased the number of shares that may be issued thereunder to 37,006,537 plus any additional shares, capped at 11,650,000, subject to awards outstanding as of October 30, 2018 and issued under the Initial Plan that are forfeited, to or repurchased by the Company. The Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan expires on October 30, 2028, unless terminated earlier.

Options and RSAs Under Stock Plans

Note 11. Commitments and Contingencies

Legal Proceedings

From time to time, the Company may become subject to legal proceedings, claims and litigation arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company is not currently a party to any legal proceedings, nor is it aware of any pending or threatened litigation, that would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, operating results, cash flows, or financing condition should such litigation be resolved unfavorably.

Note 12. Income Taxes

The Company’s effective tax rate for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 was zero percent. The effective tax rate may vary significantly from period to period and can be influenced by many factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, changes to the statutory rates in the jurisdictions where the Company has operations and changes in the valuation of deferred tax assets and liabilities. The difference between the effective tax rate and the federal statutory rate of 21% primarily relates to certain nondeductible items, state and local income taxes and a full valuation allowance for deferred tax assets.

Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of Momentus (the “Company”) as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related statements of operations, stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2019, and the related notes (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, and the related results of its operations and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended December 31, 2019, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

Basis for Opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB) and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial statement schedules are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. The Company is not required to have, nor were we engaged to perform, an audit of its internal control over financial reporting. As part of our audits we are required to obtain an understanding of internal control over financial reporting but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Accordingly, we express no such opinion.

Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements and financial statement schedules, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Emphasis of Matter

As described in Note 1 to the financial statements, in March 2020, the World Health Organization declared COVID-19 a global pandemic leading to broader global economic uncertainties. The measures taken by government agencies to slow the progression of the disease are uncertain and may adversely affect the Company’s result of operations, cash flows and financial position. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2019.

MOMENTUS INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 1. Nature of Operations

Company and Background

Momentus Inc. (“Momentus” or the “Company”) was incorporated in the State of Delaware on May 16, 2017, and is headquartered in Santa Clara, California. The Company is a first mover in offering in-space infrastructure services that will be important to enable the commercialization of space. The Company plans to partner with launch providers and seeks to offer a range of in-space services, including transportation services, satellite-as-a-service, and in-orbit services. The Company’s vehicles will be equipped with new electric propulsion system (microwave electrothermal) which uses water as a propellant.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“U.S. GAAP”).

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts in the financial statements and accompanying notes. Management bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other factors it believes to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates inherent in the preparation of the financial statements include, but are not limited to, accounting for useful lives of property, plant and equipment, net, accrued liabilities, income taxes including deferred tax assets and liabilities and impairment valuation and stock-based awards.

Cash and Cash Equivalents

Cash and cash equivalents consist include all cash balances and highly liquid investments purchased with a remaining maturity of three months or less. Cash and cash equivalents are stated at cost, which approximates fair value.

Receivables

Receivables related to tax credits to be received from the California Franchise Tax Board.

Prepaids and Other Current Assets

Prepaid and other current assets include prepayments for launch costs, research and development, insurance, and software subscriptions. Prepaid launch costs consist of launch costs paid to third party providers that will carry the transport vehicle to orbit. Prepaid launch costs are recognized upon launch as cost of revenue or research and development expense, and the allocation of the costs is determined based on the distribution between customer and Company payload weight on each launch. The non-current portion of prepaid launch costs is included in other non-current assets in the Company’s balance sheet.

Prepaid research and development costs relate to non-refundable advanced payments in cash for components and materials that will be used in building the Company’s vehicles. The Company conducts research and development activities to develop existing and future technologies that advance its vehicle towards commercialization. As prescribed by ASC 730: Research and Development, non-refundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities should be deferred and capitalized. Deferred amounts are recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or the services are performed, or when the goods or services are no longer expected to be provided.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Prepaid insurance and prepaid software subscriptions are amortized over the terms of their respective agreements.

Property, Machinery and Equipment, net

Property and equipment are stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is generally recorded using the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the respective assets. The estimated useful lives of fixed assets by asset category are described below:

Fixed Assets

 

Estimated Useful Life

Computer equipment

 

Three years

Furniture and fixtures

 

Five years

Leasehold improvements

 

Lesser of estimated useful life or remaining lease term

Machinery and equipment

 

Seven years

Costs of maintenance or repairs that do not extend the lives of the respective assets are charged to expenses as incurred.

Intangible Assets, net

Intangible assets consist of patents and are reported at cost less accumulated amortization and accumulated impairment loss, if any. Amortization is recognized on a straight-line basis over 8.5 to 10 years, which is the estimated useful lives of the patents.

Impairment of Long-lived Assets

The Company evaluates the carrying value of long lived assets on an annual basis, or more frequently whenever circumstances indicate a long lived asset may be impaired. When indicators of impairment exist, the Company estimates future undiscounted cash flows attributable to such assets. In the event cash flows are not expected to be sufficient to recover the recorded value of the assets, the assets are written down to their estimated fair value. There were no asset impairments during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

Contract Liabilities

Contract liabilities reflect the amount invoiced to customers in advance of revenue recognition and are recognized when all revenue recognition criteria are met. Contract liabilities that will be recognized during the succeeding twelve-month period are recorded as current contract liabilities and the remaining portion is recorded as non-current. The Company’s contract liabilities consist primarily of customer deposits for payload and satellite launch services.

SAFE Notes

The Company issued Simple Agreement for Future Equity (“SAFE”) notes to investors for aggregate proceeds of $10,006,760 and $3,674,372 as of December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. An additional $1,000,000 SAFE note was entered into during December 2019; however, proceeds of this SAFE note were not received until January 2020 and, as such, this SAFE note was not recorded in the accompanying balance sheets.

The SAFE notes provide the investors to the right to certain shares of the Company’s capital stock upon an equity financing. The SAFE notes are recorded as a long-term liability at their transaction value. See Note 7 for more information.

MOMENTUS INC.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

Fair Value Measurements

The Company applies fair value accounting for its cash equivalents at each reporting period using a fair value hierarchy that requires the Company to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. A financial instrument’s classification within the fair value hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

Three levels of inputs may be used to measure fair value:

•        Level 1 — Observable inputs that reflect quoted prices (unadjusted) for identical, unrestricted assets or liabilities in active markets.

•        Level 2 — Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities, quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in inactive markets, or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data for substantially the full term of the assets or liabilities

•        Level 3 — Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity and typically reflect management’s estimate of assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability.

Stock-based Compensation

The Company has a stock incentive plan under which incentive and non-qualified stock options are granted to employees, directors, and consultants. All stock-based payments to employees, including grants of employee stock options are recognized in the financial statements based on their respective grant date fair values.

The Company recognizes stock based compensation expense using a fair-value-based method for costs related to all stock based payments. The Company estimates the fair value of stock based payments on the date of grant using the Black Scholes Merton option pricing model. The model requires management to make a number of assumptions, including expected volatility of the Company’s stock, expected life of the option, risk-free interest rate, and expected dividends. The fair value of the stock is expensed over the related service period which is typically the vesting period.

Stock-based compensation expense recognized in the Company’s financial statements is based on awards that are expected to vest. The Company accounts for forfeitures as they occur.

The Company evaluates the assumptions used to value stock awards on an annual basis. Expenses related to stock based awards issued to non employees are recognized based on their current fair value in the periods those awards vest.

The Company determines the fair value of stock options using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model, which is impacted by the following assumptions:

•        Risk-Free Interest Rate.    The risk-free interest rate is based on the U.S. Treasury yield curve in effect at the date closest to the grant date for U.S. Treasury notes with maturities approximately equal to the expected term of the awards.

•        Expected Term.    The expected term represents the expected time to liquidity.

•        Volatility.    The volatility is based on a blend of volatility of guideline companies.

•        Dividend Yield.    The dividend yield is assumed to be zero as the Company has not paid and does not expect to pay dividends.

Advertising Expenses

Advertising is expensed as incurred. Advertising expense for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was $124,250 and $102,005, respectively.

Research and Development Costs

Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. Research and development costs include activities to develop existing and future technologies for the Company’s vehicles. Research and development activities include basic research, applied research, design, development, and related test program activities. Costs incurred for developing our vehicles primarily include equipment, material, and labor hours (both internal and subcontractors). Once the Company has achieved technological feasibility, the Company will capitalize the costs to construct any additional components of the vehicle systems.

Nonrefundable advance payments for goods or services that will be used or rendered for future research and development activities related to an executory contractual arrangement are deferred and capitalized. These advance payments are recognized as an expense as the related goods are delivered or services performed. When the related goods are no longer expected to be delivered or services rendered, the capitalized advance payment should be charged to expense.

Income Taxes

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with authoritative guidance, which requires the use of the asset and liability method. Under this method, deferred income tax assets and liabilities are determined based upon the difference between the financial statement carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities and are measured using the enacted tax rate expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the differences are expected to be reversed.

Significant judgment is required in determining any valuation allowance recorded against deferred tax assets. In assessing the need for a valuation allowance, management considers all available evidence, including past operating results, estimates of future taxable income, and the feasibility of tax planning strategies.

In the event that management changes its determination as to the amount of deferred tax assets that can be realized, the Company will adjust its valuation allowance with a corresponding impact to the provision for income taxes in the period in which such determination is made.

The Company is required to evaluate the tax positions taken in the course of preparing its tax returns to determine whether tax positions are “more likely than not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority. Tax benefits of positions not deemed to meet the “more likely than not” threshold would be recorded as a tax expense in the current year. The amount recognized is subject to estimate and management judgment with respect to the likely outcome of each uncertain tax position. The amount that is ultimately sustained for an individual uncertain tax position or for all uncertain tax positions in the aggregate could differ from the amount that is initially recognized.

Basic and Diluted Loss Per Share

Net loss per share is provided in accordance with FASB ASC 260-10, “Earnings per Share”. The Company’s preferred shares are participating securities as the holders of the preferred shares are entitled to participate in dividends with ordinary shares. Net losses are not allocated to the preferred shares as the holders of the preferred shares do not have a contractual obligation to share in any losses. Accordingly, basic net loss per share is computed by dividing losses available to common stockholders by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted loss per share gives effect to all dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period. Dilutive loss per share excludes all potential common shares if their effect is anti-dilutive as shown below:

Concentrations of Risk

Financial instruments that are exposed to concentrations of credit risk consist primarily of cash and cash equivalents. The Company places its cash and cash equivalents in banks that management believes are creditworthy, however deposits may exceed federally insured limits.

Segment Reporting

Operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated regularly by the chief operating decision maker in deciding how to allocate resources and in assessing operating performance. In consideration of Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 280, “Segment Reporting,” we are not organized around specific services or geographic regions. We currently operate in one service line providing in-space transportation services.

Our chief operating decision maker uses condensed financial information to evaluate our performance, which is the same basis on which our results and performance are communicated to our Board of Directors. Based on the information described above and in accordance with the applicable literature, management has concluded that we are organized and operated as one operating and reportable segment.

Recently Issued Accounting Standards

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the accounting for income taxes, which simplifies the accounting for income taxes by removing certain exceptions to the general principles in income taxes. The amendments also improve consistent application of and simplify GAAP for other areas of Topic 740 by clarifying and amending existing guidance. This guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently assessing the impact of ASU-2019-12 on its financial statements.

Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (cont.)

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity, which simplifies the guidance on the issuer’s accounting for convertible debt instruments by removing the separation models for (1) convertible debt with a cash conversion feature and (2) convertible instruments with a beneficial conversion feature. As a result, entities will not separately present in equity an embedded conversion feature in such debt. Instead, they will account for a convertible debt instrument wholly as debt, unless certain other conditions are met. The elimination of these models will reduce reported interest expense and increase reported net income for entities that have issued a convertible instrument that was within the scope of those models before the adoption of ASU 2020-06. Also, ASU 2020-06 requires the application of the if-converted method for calculating diluted earnings per share and treasury stock method will be no longer available. The provisions of ASU 2020-06 are applicable for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2021, with early adoption permitted no earlier than fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of ASU 2020-06 on its financial statements.

Recently Adopted Accounting Standards

In May 2014, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606). The core principle of ASU 2014-09 is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. In addition, ASU 2014-09 requires additional disclosure around the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted the ASU on January 1, 2019. Adoption of this ASU did not have a material impact on the Company’s financial statements.

In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (Topic 842). This guidance is intended to increase transparency and comparability among organizations by recognizing lease assets and liabilities on the balance sheet and disclosing key information about lease arrangements. The Company adopted the standard as of January 1, 2020, using the modified retrospective approach and has elected to use the optional transition method which allows the Company to apply the guidance of ASC 840, including disclosure requirements, in the comparative periods presented. In addition, the Company elected the package of practical expedients permitted under the transition guidance within the new standard, which among other things, allowed the Company to carry forward the historical lease classification related to agreements entered prior to adoption.

The adoption of the new standard resulted in recognition of operating lease ROU assets and operating lease liabilities of $545,707 and $555,916, respectively, as of January 1, 2020. There was no material cumulative impact of transition to accumulated deficit as of the adoption date. The standard did not materially impact the accompanying statements of operations and had no impact on the accompanying statements of cash flows.

Note 7. SAFE Notes

SAFE notes totaling $7,506,760 and $3,674,371 converted into the Company’s preferred stock due to an equity financing during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively. SAFE notes totaling $2,500,000 remained outstanding as of December 31, 2019.

Conversion or Cash-out Events

In the event of an equity financing in which the Company issues and sells preferred stock for the purpose of raising capital, the SAFE notes will convert into a series of preferred stock of the Company. The number of shares of preferred stock will be determined by the issuance price of the SAFE notes and the applicable discount on the conversion shares, or valuation cap. There was a 20% discount associated with the SAFE notes issued during the year ended December 31, 2019, and no discount associated with the SAFE notes issued during the year ended December 31, 2018. Additionally, the valuation caps ranged from $80,000,000 to $150,000,000 for SAFE notes issued during the year ended December 31, 2019 and ranged from $15,000,000 to $30,000,000 (or in certain instances, SAFE notes with a discount only and no valuation cap) for SAFE notes issued during the year ended December 31, 2018.

In the event of a liquidity event (i.e. a change of control or initial public offering), SAFE note holders will receive a portion of the proceeds payable in such liquidity event equal to the greater of the purchase amount of the applicable SAFE notes and the amount payable on the number of shares of common stock equal to the purchase amount divided by the liquidity price set forth in such SAFE notes in exchange for their SAFE notes.

Preference Upon Dissolution

Should the Company dissolve or wind-up operations prior to a conversion or cash-out event, SAFE note holders will be treated like a standard non-participating Preferred Stock.

Embedded and Beneficial Conversion Features

The Company assessed the embedded conversion and redemption features of the SAFE notes to determine if derivative treatment was required pursuant to ASC 815. Per the assessment, no embedded derivatives required bifurcation. The Company further assessed the embedded conversion features of the SAFE notes under ASC 470-20 and determined that contingent beneficial conversion features (“BCFs”) existed. Upon the conversion of the SAFE notes, the contingency was resolved and the BCFs were measured at their intrinsic value. BCFs associated with converted SAFE notes totaled $568,497 and $282,826 during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, and were recorded as interest expense and additional paid-in-capital.

The outstanding SAFE notes as of December 31, 2019 contain contingent BCFs, which are recorded when the contingent event occurs. The BCF associated with these SAFE notes may range from $875,000 to an indeterminable amount due to the existence of a valuation cap.

The Notes contained numerous embedded conversion and redemption features that were dependent upon contingent events. These embedded features provided for the conversion or redemption of the Notes plus accrued interest into equity securities or cash. Conversion or redemption into equity securities was either at the face value plus interest of the Notes, at a discount, or based on a target valuation. The Company assessed the embedded conversion and redemption features to determine if derivative treatment was required pursuant to ASC 815. Per the assessment, no embedded derivatives required bifurcation. The Company further assessed the embedded conversion features of the Notes under ASC 470-20 and determined that contingent BCFs existed.

Capital Structure

On April 14, 2018, the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) and stockholders approved a 100-for-1 forward stock split of the Company’s then-outstanding common stock. The change was effected with a corresponding change in the par value per share. All references to share and per share amounts in the financial statements and these notes thereto have been retroactively restated to reflect the forward stock split.

Note 9. Stockholders’ Equity (cont.)

On November 1, 2018, the Company entered into exchange agreements with Mikhail Kokorich (its Chief Executive Officer, “CEO”) and a related entity of a co-founder (the Company’s two founding shareholders), whereby 100,000,000 fully vested shares of then-outstanding common stock were reconstituted into 80,000,000 shares of Class B common stock and 20,000,000 shares of FF preferred stock, with the Company’s CEO and the related entity each holding 40,000,000 shares of Class B common stock and 10,000,000 shares of FF preferred stock, respectively.

Concurrent with the exchange agreements, the parties to the agreements each entered into a stock restriction agreement whereby each holder’s 40,000,000 shares of Class B common stock were subjected to a 4-year vesting schedule, with 1/48th of the shares vesting on each monthly anniversary of the agreement, subject to the holder’s continuous service through each vesting date. The CEO’s shares are also subject to acceleration in the event of a qualifying termination in connection with a change in control and the entity’s shares were subject to acceleration in the event of change in control. The Company has a right to repurchase any unvested shares at the then-current market value if the holder ceases to provide services. The related entity’s co-founder shares were subsequently accelerated and fully vested as of March 2020.

The Company assessed the repurchase feature and concluded that the shares met the criteria for equity classification as the Company’s exercise of the repurchase right is not probable. No additional expense was recognized as a result of the exchange as the fair value of the issued shares were not materially different from those exchanged.

In accordance with the Certificate of Incorporation, as amended and restated on June 21, 2019, the Company is authorized to issue four classes of stock: Class A Common, Class B Common, FF Preferred, and Preferred. As of December 31, 2019, the Company is authorized to issue 578,761,378 total shares with a par value of $0.000001 per share. A summary of the share classes is included below:

Liquidation preference, conversion rights, redemption rights, and voting rights for Preferred stock are the same for each series. See below for a summary of these rights:

•        Liquidation Preference — In the event of any voluntary or involuntary liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Company or other deemed liquidation event (as specified in the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation), holders of preferred stock are entitled to receive, prior and in preference to holders of common stock and FF preferred stock, an amount per share equal to the greater of (i) the applicable original issue price for such series of convertible preferred stock, or (ii) such amount per share as would have been payable had all shares of preferred stock been converted into common stock. If upon occurrence of such a liquidation event, the assets and funds to be distributed among the holders of preferred stock are insufficient to permit the payment in full to all holders of preferred stock, the entire assets and funds of the Company legally available for distribution will be distributed ratably among such holders. Upon completion of the distribution to the holders of the preferred stock, all remaining legally available assets will be distributed ratably to the holders of common stock and FF preferred stock.

NOTES TO THE FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Note 9. Stockholders’ Equity (cont.)

•        Conversion Rights — At the option of the holder of preferred stock, each share of preferred stock may be converted at any time into such number of shares of common stock at the applicable conversion rate, which is equal to the original issue price divided by a conversion price; the conversion price is initially equal to the original issue price, as adjusted for stock splits, dividends and distributions and for certain dilutive issuances.. Each share of convertible preferred stock will automatically convert into common stock upon either (i) the closing of a firm commitment underwritten public offering of the Company’s common stock pursuant to an effective registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, that results in at least $75 million in gross proceeds to the Company or (ii) the affirmative vote by the holders of at least a majority of the outstanding shares of preferred stock, voting as a single class on an as-converted basis.

•        Redemption Rights — Preferred stock is not redeemable at the option of the holder.

•        Voting Rights — Preferred stock shareholders are entitled to one vote per share of Class A common stock that they would then convert into.

Shares of preferred stock are entitled to annual dividends if declared by the Board of Directors. No dividends were declared during the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018.

FF Preferred — FF Preferred shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Shares of FF preferred stock are convertible into Class A common stock at the option of the holder. Automatic conversion occurs upon a sale of the Company’s capital stock in an underwritten public offering, or by vote of a majority of the then outstanding shares of FF preferred stock. Dividends paid to holders of FF preferred stock are equivalent to those paid to Class A Common shareholders; however, there were no dividends paid for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. FF preferred stock is not redeemable at the option of the holder.

Class A Common — Class A Common shareholders are entitled to one vote per share. Dividends paid to holders of Class A common stock are paid on a pro rata basis between the two classes of common stock; however, there were no dividends paid for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. Class A common stock is not redeemable at the option of the holder.

Class B Common — Class B Common shareholders are entitled to ten votes per share. Dividends paid to holders of Class B common stock are paid on a pro rata basis between the two classes of common stock; however, there were no dividends paid for the years ended December 31, 2019 and 2018. Holders of Class B common stock may convert their shares to Class A common stock at their option. Class B common stock is not redeemable at the option of the holder.

Warrants

On January 1, 2019, the Company issued a warrant to an affiliate of an employee covering up to 5,000,000 shares of Class A common stock. The warrant is accounted for under the guidance of ASC 718, Stock-Based Compensation, pursuant to the adoption of ASU 2018-07. The warrant has a contractual term of seven years, an exercise price of $0.05 per share, and had a grant date fair value of $0.019 per share. One quarter of the warrant shares vest and become exercisable after the first 12 months of continuous service by such employee, and 1/48 of the warrant shares vest and become exercisable each month of continuous service after the 12-month anniversary date.

A total of $43,299 of compensation expense was recognized from the grant date through December 30, 2019 and is included within selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. On December 30, 2019, the Company modified the terms of the original warrant. A total of 1,250,000 warrant shares became immediately vested and the remaining 3,750,000 warrant shares were forfeited. The Company accounted for the modification as a Type III modification, which resulted in a re-measured fair value per share of $0.035 and the recognition of incremental compensation expense of $19,601. The incremental compensation expense related to the warrant is recognized in selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying statements of operations. The fair value of the warrant was estimated using the Black-Scholes-Merton option pricing model with the following assumptions at each measurement date:

Stock Incentive Plan

In May 2018, the Board of Directors of Momentus Inc. approved the 2018 Stock Plan (the “Initial Plan”) that allowed for granting of incentive and non-qualified stock options and restricted stock awards (“RSAs”) to employees, directors, and consultants. In November 2018, the Board terminated the Initial Plan such that no additional awards may be granted under the Initial Plan, and adopted a new 2018 Stock Plan (the “New 2018 Stock Plan” and, together with the Initial Plan, the “Plans”). As of December 31, 2018, 30,975,958 shares of Class A common stock were reserved for issuance under the Plans. The New 2018 Stock Plan was amended subsequent to December 31, 2019 (see Note 13). During the year ended December 31, 2019, the shares of Class A common stock reserved for issuance under the New 2018 Stock Plan was increased by 4,430,579. Vested options may be exercised in exchange for Class A common stock of the Company. All outstanding and unvested options and RSAs forfeit in the event of employment termination.

Section 2.5 Directors and Officers of the Surviving Corporation and the Surviving Entity.

(a) The Company shall take all necessary action prior to the Effective Time such that (i) each director of the Company in office immediately prior to the Effective Time shall cease to be a director immediately following the Effective Time (including by causing each such director to tender an irrevocable resignation as a director, effective as of the Effective Time) and (ii) each person set forth on Section 2.5(a) of the Company Disclosure Letter shall be appointed to the Board of Directors of the Surviving Corporation, effective as of immediately following the Effective Time, and, as of such time, shall be the only directors of the Surviving Corporation (including by causing the board of directors of the Company to adopt resolutions prior to the Effective Time that expand or decrease the size of the board of directors of the Company, as necessary, and appoint such persons to the vacancies resulting from the incumbent directors’ respective resignations or, if applicable, the newly created directorships upon any expansion of the size of the board of directors of the Company). Each person appointed as a director of the Surviving Corporation pursuant to the preceding sentence shall remain in office as a director of the Surviving Corporation until his or her successor is elected and qualified or until his or her earlier death, resignation or removal.

(a) Each share of Company Stock (other than Excluded Shares and shares of unvested Company Restricted Stock) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time will be cancelled and automatically deemed for all purposes to represent the right to receive, and the holder of such share of Company Stock shall be entitled to receive, the Per Share Company Stock Consideration pursuant to this Section 2.6(a), issuable in Parent Class A Common Stock, in each case, without interest, upon surrender of stock certificates representing all of such Company Stockholder’s Company Stock (each, a “Certificate”) and delivery of the other documents required pursuant to Section 2.8. As of the Effective Time, each Company Stockholder shall cease to have any other rights in and to the Company, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Entity, and each Certificate relating to the ownership of shares of Company Stock (other than Excluded Shares) shall thereafter represent only the right to receive the Per Share Company Stock Consideration.

(b) Each Company Warrant that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time will automatically be converted into a warrant to acquire a number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock at an adjusted exercise price per share, in each case, as determined under this Section 2.6(b) (each such resulting warrant, an “Assumed Warrant”). Each Assumed Warrant shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding Company Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the Transactions or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the Parties may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Assumed Warrants. Accordingly, effective as of the Effective Time: (a) each such Assumed Warrant shall be exercisable solely for shares of Parent Class A Common Stock; (b) the number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to each Assumed Warrant shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Stock subject to the Company Warrant by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock; and (c) the per share exercise price for the Parent Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Company Warrant shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Stock subject to the Company Warrant, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall,

if applicable, deliver any notices and obtain any consents required in order to effect the treatment of the Company Warrants described in this Section 2.6(b) pursuant to the terms of the Company Warrants and any plan or similar document governing the Company Warrants.

(c) Each Company Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time (whether vested or unvested) shall automatically be assumed by Parent and converted into an option to acquire a number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock at an adjusted exercise price per share, in each case, as determined under this Section 2.6(c) (each such resulting option, a “Rollover Option”). Each Rollover Option shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding Company Option immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the Transactions or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the Parties may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover Options. Accordingly, effective as of the Effective Time: (i) each such Rollover Option shall be exercisable solely for shares of Parent Class A Common Stock; (ii) the number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock subject to each Rollover Option shall be determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Stock subject to the corresponding Company Option by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock; and (iii) the per share exercise price for the Parent Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such Rollover Option shall be determined by dividing the per share exercise price for the shares of Company Stock subject to the Company Option, as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Time, by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration, and rounding the resulting exercise price up to the nearest whole cent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the conversions described in this Section 2.6(c) shall occur in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 409A of the Code and, in the case of any Company Option to which Section 422 of the Code applies, the exercise price and the number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock purchasable pursuant to such option shall be determined in a manner consistent with the requirements of Section 424(a) of the Code. Prior to the Effective Time, the Company shall perform such actions as are required under the Company Stock Plans and the awards governing the Company Options in order to effect the treatment of the Company Options described in this Section 2.6(c).

(d) Each Company Non-Plan Option that is outstanding and unexercised immediately prior to the Effective Time shall be automatically cancelled for no consideration.

(e) Each award of Company Restricted Stock that is outstanding and unvested immediately prior to the Effective Time shall automatically be assumed by Parent and converted into an award of restricted stock with respect to a number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (the “Rollover Restricted Stock”) determined by multiplying the number of shares of Company Restricted Stock subject to such award by the Per Share Company Stock Consideration and rounding the resulting number down to the nearest whole number of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock. Each share of Rollover Restricted Stock shall be subject to the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such corresponding share of Company Restricted Stock immediately prior to the Effective Time (including applicable vesting conditions), except to the extent such terms or conditions are rendered inoperative by the Transactions or such other immaterial administrative or ministerial changes as the Parties may determine are appropriate to effectuate the administration of the Rollover Restricted Stock. The Parties intend that the Rollover Restricted Stock payable pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) to the holders of Company Common Stock (but only with respect to their Company Common Stock which was fully vested upon receipt or for which they have filed timely and valid elections under Section 83(b) of the Code) will be treated as received in exchange for the applicable holder’s Company Common Stock, and agree to report for income Tax purposes such payments as consideration for such holder’s Company Common Stock and not as compensation for services. Pursuant to Revenue Ruling 2007-49, the holders of Company Common Stock that receive Rollover Restricted Stock in the First Merger pursuant to this Section 2.6(e) that are subject to vesting arrangements will make a timely and valid election under Section 83(b) of the Code with respect to such Rollover Restricted Stock, in which case, the Parties agree that no compensation will occur when such Rollover Restricted Stock is issued or vests.

(f) Immediately prior to the Effective Time, each outstanding Company SAFE shall be automatically converted into the right to receive the aggregate Per Share Company Stock Consideration payable in accordance with the terms of such applicable Company SAFE in connection with the Transactions (for the avoidance of doubt, with respect to each Company SAFE, such aggregate Per Share Company Stock Consideration shall be equal to (i) the number of shares of Company Stock equal to the (A) Purchase Amount (as defined in each such Company SAFE), divided by (B) Liquidity Price (as defined in each such Company SAFE) applicable to such Company SAFE, multiplied by (ii) the Per Share Company Stock Consideration). Each Company SAFE so converted shall immediately thereafter terminate in accordance with its terms.

(g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no certificates or scrip representing fractional shares of Parent Class A Common Stock shall be issued upon the conversion of Company Interests, as applicable pursuant to this Section 2.6, and such fractional share interests shall not entitle the owner thereof to vote or to any other rights of a holder of Parent Class A Common Stock. In lieu of the issuance of any such fractional share, Parent shall pay to each former holder of Company Interests (other than Excluded Shares) who otherwise would be entitled to receive such fractional share an amount in cash, without interest, rounded down to the nearest cent, equal to the product of (a) the amount of the fractional share interest in a share of Parent Class A Common Stock to which such holder otherwise would have been entitled but for this Section 2.6(g), multiplied by (b) $10.00.

(h) Each issued and outstanding share of common stock of First Merger Sub shall be converted into and become one (1) validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable share of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of the Surviving Corporation, which shall constitute the only outstanding shares of capital stock of the Surviving Corporation. From and after the Effective Time, all certificates representing the common stock of First Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of shares of common stock of the Surviving Corporation into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

(i) Each share of Company Stock held in the Company’s treasury or owned by Parent, First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub or the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (together with the Dissenting Shares, the “Excluded Shares”), shall be cancelled and no consideration shall be paid or payable with respect thereto.

(j) The numbers of shares of Parent Class A Common Stock that the holders of Company Interests are entitled to receive as a result of the First Merger and as otherwise contemplated by this Agreement shall be adjusted to reflect appropriately the effect of any stock split, split-up, reverse stock split, stock dividend or distribution (including any dividend or distribution of securities convertible into Parent Class A Common Stock), extraordinary cash dividend, reorganization, recapitalization, reclassification, combination, exchange of shares or other like change with respect to Parent Class A Common Stock occurring on or after the date hereof and prior to the Closing.

Section 2.7 Effect of the Second Merger. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, at the Second Effective Time, by virtue of the Second Merger and without any action on the part of any Party or any holder of Company Interests or the holders of any shares of capital stock of Parent, the Surviving Corporation or Second Merger Sub: (a) each share of common stock of the Surviving Corporation issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be cancelled and shall cease to exist without any conversion thereof or payment therefor; and (b) the membership interest of Second Merger Sub outstanding immediately prior to the Second Effective Time shall be converted into and become the membership interest of the Surviving Entity, which shall constitute one hundred percent (100%) of the outstanding equity of the Surviving Entity. From and after the Second Effective Time, the membership interests of the Second Merger Sub shall be deemed for all purposes to represent the number of membership interests into which they were converted in accordance with the immediately preceding sentence.

Section 2.8 Disbursement of Aggregate Stock Consideration.

(a) Subject to this Section 2.8, promptly following the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver, or cause to be delivered to each holder of Company Interests (other than holders of Excluded Shares, Company Options, Company Warrants and Company Restricted Stock) the portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration payable to such holder in respect of the Company Interests held by such holder in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6 (as reflected in the Company Closing Statement).

(b) Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall appoint a commercial bank or trust company (the “Exchange Agent”) for the purpose of exchanging Certificates, if applicable, and otherwise distributing to each holder of Company Interests (other than holders of Excluded Shares, Company Options, Company Warrants and Company Restricted Stock) the portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration payable to each such holder of Company Interests.

(c) At the Effective Time, Parent shall make available to the Exchange Agent the portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration required pursuant to the Company Closing Statement to fund the payments set forth in Section 2.6(a) and Section 2.6(f). Such equity deposited with the Exchange Agent shall be referred to in this Agreement as the “Exchange Fund”. At the Effective Time, Parent shall deliver irrevocable instructions to the Exchange Agent to deliver such foregoing portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration out of the Exchange Fund in the manner it is contemplated to be issued or paid pursuant to this ARTICLE II.

Annex A-8

Table of Contents

(d) Promptly after the Effective Time (and in any event within five (5) Business Days thereafter), the Exchange Agent shall mail to each holder of Company Interests (other than holders of Excluded Shares and holders of Company Options, Company Warrants and Company Restricted Stock): (i) a letter of transmittal (the “Letter of Transmittal”) in such form and having such other provisions as Parent and the Company may reasonably agree; and (ii) instructions for surrendering Certificates representing Company Stock (or affidavits of loss in lieu of the Certificates as provided in Section 2.8(g)), if applicable, to the Exchange Agent (the “Surrender Documentation”); provided, however, that the Exchange Agent shall not be required to deliver a Letter of Transmittal or Surrender Documentation to any holder of Company Interests that has delivered its Letter of Transmittal and Surrender Documentation, if applicable, with respect to such holder’s Company Interests to the Exchange Agent at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date. Upon receipt by the Exchange Agent of the completed Letter of Transmittal and the Surrender Documentation, the Exchange Agent will deliver to the holder of such Company Interests the portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration payable to such holder in respect of the Company Interests held by such holder in accordance with the terms of Section 2.6, less any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.9; provided, however, that if the holder of such Company Interests delivers to the Exchange Agent the Letter of Transmittal and, if applicable, Surrender Documentation, at least two Business Days prior to the Closing Date, the Exchange Agent shall deliver to the holder of such Company Interests the portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration payable to such holder on the Closing Date or as promptly as practicable thereafter. All Certificates surrendered by the Company Stockholders shall forthwith be cancelled. Until a Letter of Transmittal and, if applicable, Surrender Documentation, has been received by the Exchange Agent, each Company Interest shall represent after the Effective Time for all purposes only the right to receive the portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration payable in respect of such Company Interest pursuant to Section 2.6. No interest will be paid or accrued on any amount payable upon due submission of any Letter of Transmittal or, if applicable, Surrender Documentation.

(e) In the event of a transfer of ownership of shares of Company Stock that is not registered in the transfer records of the Company, the Per Share Company Stock Consideration to be delivered upon due surrender of the Certificate may be issued to such transferee if the Certificate formerly representing such shares of Company Stock is presented to the Exchange Agent, accompanied by all documents required to evidence and effect such transfer and to evidence that any applicable stock transfer Taxes have been paid or are not applicable. From and after the Effective Time, there shall be no transfers on the transfer books of the Company of any shares of Company Stock that were outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time. If, after the Effective Time, any Certificate is presented to the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Entity, Parent or the Exchange Agent for transfer, it shall be cancelled and deemed exchanged for (without interest and after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.9) the aggregate Per Share Company Stock Consideration represented by such Certificate, as applicable.

(f) Any portion of the Exchange Fund (including the proceeds of any investments of the Exchange Fund) that remains unclaimed by the holders of Company Interests for 180 days after the Effective Time shall be delivered to the Surviving Entity. Any holder of Company Interests who has not theretofore complied with this ARTICLE II shall thereafter look only to the Surviving Entity for payment of their respective portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.9). Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Entity, Parent, the Exchange Agent or any other Person shall be liable to any former holder of Company Interests for any amount properly delivered to a public official pursuant to applicable abandoned property, escheat or similar Laws.

(g) In the event any Certificate shall have been lost, stolen or destroyed: (i) upon the making of an affidavit of that fact by the Person claiming such Certificate to be lost, stolen or destroyed; and (ii) if required by Parent, the posting by such Person of a bond in customary amount and upon such terms as may be required by Parent as indemnity against any claim that may be made against it, the Surviving Corporation or the Surviving Entity with respect to such Certificate, the Exchange Agent will issue the portion of the Aggregate Stock Consideration attributable to such Certificate (after giving effect to any required Tax withholdings as provided in Section 2.9).

Section 2.9 Withholding Taxes. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, each of Parent, First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Entity and their respective Affiliates shall be entitled to deduct and withhold from any consideration or other amounts otherwise deliverable or payable under this Agreement such amounts that any such Persons are required to deduct and withhold under the Code or any other applicable Tax Law. To the extent that Parent, First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub, the Company, the Surviving Corporation, the Surviving Entity or their respective Affiliates withholds such amounts with respect to any Person and pays such withheld amounts to the applicable Governmental Entity, such withheld amounts shall be treated as having

Annex A-9

been paid to or on behalf of such Person for all purposes. In the case of any such payment payable to employees of the Company or its Affiliates in connection with the Mergers treated as compensation for applicable Tax purposes, the parties shall cooperate to pay such amounts through the Company’s payroll to facilitate applicable withholding.

Section 2.10 Appraisal Rights.

(a) Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary and to the extent available under the DGCL or, to the extent applicable, the CCC, shares of Company Stock that are outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time and that are held by Company Stockholders who shall have neither voted in favor of the First Merger nor consented thereto in writing in respect of such Company Stock and who shall have demanded properly in writing appraisal for such Company Stock in accordance with Section 262 of the DGCL, or, to the extent applicable, Chapter 13 of the CCC, and otherwise complied with all of the provisions of the DGCL or CCC, as applicable, relevant to the exercise and perfection of appraisal rights (collectively, the “Dissenting Shares”), shall not be converted into, and such Company Stockholders shall have no right to receive, the Per Share Company Stock Consideration that would otherwise be attributable to such Dissenting Shares in accordance with Section 2.6 (as reflected in the Company Closing Statement) unless and until such Company Stockholder fails to perfect or withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its right to appraisal and payment under the DGCL, and if and to the extent applicable, the CCC. Any Company Stockholder who fails to perfect or who effectively withdraws or otherwise loses his, her or its rights to appraisal of such Dissenting Shares under Section 262 of the DGCL, and if and to the extent applicable, Chapter 13 of the CCC (or other applicable Law), shall thereupon be deemed to have been converted into, and to have become exchangeable for, as of the Effective Time, the right to receive the Per Share Company Stock Consideration attributable to such Dissenting Shares in accordance with the terms of the Company’s Charter Documents (as reflected in the Company Closing Statement), without any interest thereon, upon surrender, in the manner provided in Section 2.8, of the Certificate or Certificates that formerly evidenced such Dissenting Shares.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall give Parent (i) prompt written notice of any demands for appraisal received by the Company and any withdrawals of such demands, and (ii) the opportunity to participate in all negotiations and proceedings (including the defense and any settlement thereof) with respect to demands for appraisal under the DGCL and, if and to the extent applicable, the CCC. The Company will enforce any contractual waivers that Company Stockholders have granted regarding appraisal rights that apply to the Transactions. The Company shall not, except with the prior written consent of Parent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), make any payment with respect to any demands for appraisal or offer to settle or settle any such demands.

Section 2.11 Taking of Necessary Action; Further Actions. If, at any time after the Effective Time or the Second Effective Time, any further action is necessary or desirable to carry out the purposes of this Agreement and to vest the Surviving Corporation following the First Merger and the Surviving Entity following the Second Merger with full right, title and possession to all assets, property, rights, privileges, powers and franchises of the Company, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub, the officers and directors or members, as applicable, (or their designees) of the Company, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub are fully authorized in the name of their respective corporations or otherwise to take, and will take, all such lawful and necessary action, so long as such action is not inconsistent with this Agreement.

Section 2.12 Tax Treatment of the Mergers. The Parties intend that, for United States federal income tax purposes, the Mergers will constitute an integrated plan described in Rev. Rul. 2001-46, 2001-2 C.B. 321 that qualifies as a “reorganization” within the meaning of Section 368(a) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations to which each of Parent and the Company are to be parties under Section 368(b) of the Code and the Treasury Regulations (the “Intended Tax Treatment”) and this Agreement is intended to be, and is adopted as, a plan of reorganization for purposes of Sections 354, 361 and the 368 of the Code and within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-2(g). None of the Parties knows of any fact or circumstance (without conducting independent inquiry or diligence of the other relevant party), or has taken or will take any action, whether before or after the Mergers, if such fact, circumstance or action would be reasonably expected to cause the Mergers, taken together, to fail to qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. The Mergers, taken together, shall be reported by the Parties for all Tax purposes in accordance with the Intended Tax Treatment, including the filing of the statement required by Treasury Regulations Section 1.368-3, unless otherwise required by a Governmental Entity as a result of a “determination” within the meaning of Section 1313(a) of the Code. The Parties shall reasonably cooperate with each other and their respective counsel to document and support the Intended Tax Treatment, including providing factual support letters of the sort customarily provided as the basis for a legal opinion that the Mergers qualify for the Intended Tax Treatment. For the avoidance of doubt, the qualification of the Mergers for the Intended Tax Treatment will not be a condition to Closing.

SPONSOR EARNOUT SHARES

Section 3.1 Potential Forfeiture. In accordance with the Sponsor Agreement, Sponsor has agreed that, effective upon the Closing, the Sponsor will subject 1,437,500 shares of Parent Class A Common Stock owned by Sponsor (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”) to potential forfeiture if the Triggering Events do not occur during the Earnout Period, with such Sponsor Earnout Shares vesting (and therefore no longer subject to forfeiture) pursuant to the terms of this ARTICLE III. Until the occurrence of the applicable Triggering Event, certificates representing the Sponsor Earnout Shares shall bear a legend referencing that they are subject to forfeiture pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, and any transfer agent for Parent Class A Common Stock will be given appropriate stop transfer orders that will be applicable until the Sponsor Earnout Shares are vested; provided, however, that upon the vesting of any Sponsor Earnout Shares in accordance with the terms herein, Parent shall immediately cause the removal of such legend and direct such transfer agent that such stop transfer orders are no longer applicable. For the avoidance of doubt, each Triggering Event shall only occur once, if at all.

Section 3.2 Vesting. Until the earlier of all of the Sponsor Earnout Shares having become fully vested or the expiry of the Earnout Period:

(a) one-third (1/3rd) of the Sponsor Earnout Shares (479,166 shares) shall immediately become fully vested and no longer subject to forfeiture upon the occurrence of Triggering Event I;

(b) one-third (1/3rd) of the Sponsor Earnout Shares (479,167 shares) shall immediately become fully vested and no longer subject to forfeiture upon the occurrence of Triggering Event II; and

(c) one-third (1/3rd) of the Sponsor Earnout Shares (479,167 shares) shall immediately become fully vested and no longer subject to forfeiture upon the occurrence of Triggering Event III.

Section 3.3 Adjustment. If, and as often as, the outstanding shares of Parent Class A Common Stock are changed into a different number of shares or a different class, by reason of any dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination or exchange, or any similar event after the date hereof, then the number of Sponsor Earnout Shares to be surrendered or forfeited pursuant to this ARTICLE III will in each case be equitably adjusted to reflect such change.

The Parent SEC Reports were prepared in all material respects in accordance with the requirements of the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, as the case may be, and the rules and regulations thereunder. The Parent SEC Reports did not at the time they were filed with the SEC contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading. Parent maintains disclosure controls and procedures required by Rule 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act. Each director and executive officer of Parent has filed with the SEC on a timely basis all statements required with respect to Parent by Section 16(a) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Except as set forth in Parent’s Charter Documents, there is no Contract or Order binding upon Parent, First Merger Sub or Second Merger Sub or to which any of them is a party which has or could reasonably be expected to have the effect of prohibiting or materially impairing any business practice of it, any acquisition of property by it or the conduct of business by it as currently conducted or as currently contemplated to be conducted as of the Closing, other than such effects, individually or in the aggregate, which would not reasonably be expected to be material to Parent. Parent does not own or have a right to acquire, directly or indirectly, any interest or investment (whether equity or debt) in any corporation, partnership, joint venture, business, trust or other entity. Except for this Agreement and the Transactions, neither Parent nor any of its Subsidiaries has any interests, rights, obligations or liabilities with respect to, or is party to, bound by or has its assets or property subject to, in each case whether directly or indirectly, any Contract or transaction which is, or could reasonably be interpreted as constituting, a Business Combination. Except for this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements, neither Parent, First Merger Sub nor Second Merger Sub are not party to any Contract with any other Person that would require payments by Parent, First Merger Sub or Second Merger Sub in excess of $25,000 monthly or $250,000 in the aggregate.

Section 5.11 Parent Material Contracts. Section 5.11 of the Parent Disclosure Letter sets forth a true, correct and complete list of each “material contract” (as such term is defined in Regulation S-K of the SEC) to which Parent, First Merger Sub or Second Merger Sub is party, including Contracts by and among Parent, First Merger Sub or Second Merger Sub, on the one hand, and any director, officer, stockholder or Affiliate of such Parties (the “Parent Material Contracts”), other than any such Parent Material Contract that is listed as an exhibit to any Parent SEC Report.

Section 5.12 Parent Listing. The issued and outstanding Parent Units (other than the Private Placement Units) are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and listed for trading on the Nasdaq Stock Markets (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “SRACU”. The issued and outstanding shares of Parent Class A Common Stock (other than those underlying the Private Placement Units) are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “SRAC”. The issued and outstanding Parent Warrants (other than those underlying the Private Placement Units) are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act and are listed for trading on Nasdaq under the symbol “SRACW”. Parent has not been notified by Nasdaq that it does not comply with any Nasdaq listing rule, which noncompliance is not subject to any compliance extension or ability to remedy, in each case as permitted by the Nasdaq continued listing rules. There is no action or proceeding pending or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened in writing against Parent by Nasdaq or the SEC with respect to any intention by such entity to deregister the Parent Units, the shares of Parent Class A Common Stock or Parent Warrants or terminate the listing of the Parent Units, the shares of Parent Class A Common Stock or Parent Warrants on Nasdaq, other than Legal Proceedings where a compliance extension or ability to remedy is available under applicable Law.

Section 5.13 PIPE Investment Amount. Parent has delivered to the Company true, accurate and complete copies of each of the subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) entered into by Parent with the PIPE Investors, pursuant to which the PIPE Investors have committed to provide equity financing to Parent in the aggregate amount of $175,000,000 (the “PIPE Investment Amount”). The PIPE Investment Amount, together with the amount in the Trust Account at the Closing, are in the aggregate sufficient to enable Parent to: (a) pay all cash amounts required to be paid by Parent or its Subsidiaries at the Closing under or in connection with this Agreement; and (b) pay any and all fees and expenses of or payable by Parent at the Closing with respect to the Transactions. To Parent’s Knowledge, with respect to each PIPE Investor, the Subscription Agreements are in full force and effect and have not been withdrawn or terminated, or otherwise amended or modified, in any respect, and no withdrawal, termination, amendment or modification is contemplated by Parent, except in each case for such assignments of subscription obligations contemplated by or permitted by the Subscription Agreements. Each Subscription Agreement is a legal, valid and binding obligation of Parent and, to Parent’s Knowledge, each PIPE Investor, subject to the Remedies Exception. Except as set forth on Section 5.13 of the Parent Disclosure Letter, there are no other agreements, side letters, or arrangements between Parent and any PIPE Investor relating to any Subscription Agreement, that could affect the obligation of the PIPE Investors to contribute to Parent the applicable portion of the PIPE Investment Amount set forth in the Subscription Agreements, and, as of the date hereof, Parent does not know of any facts or circumstances that would reasonably be expected to result in any of the conditions set forth in any Subscription Agreement not being satisfied, or the PIPE Investment Amount not being available to Parent, on the Closing Date. No event has occurred that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would constitute a default or breach on the part of Parent under any material term or condition of any Subscription Agreement and, as of the date hereof, Parent has no reason to believe that it will be unable to satisfy in all material respects on a timely basis any term or condition of closing to be satisfied by it contained in any Subscription Agreement.

(b) The Trust Agreement has not been amended or modified and, to the Knowledge of Parent with respect to the Trustee, is valid and in full force and effect and is enforceable in accordance with its terms, except insofar as enforceability may be limited by the Remedies Exception.

There are no separate Contracts, side letters or other understandings (whether written or unwritten, express or implied) that would cause the description of the Trust Agreement in the Parent SEC Reports to be inaccurate in any material respect or that would entitle any Person (other than (x) stockholders of Parent who elect to redeem their shares of Parent Class A Common Stock pursuant to Parent’s Charter Documents, including pursuant to the Parent Stockholder Redemptions, (y) the underwriters of Parent’s initial public offering with respect to any deferred underwriting compensation and (z) Parent with respect to income earned on the proceeds in the Trust Account in order to pay taxes in accordance with Parent’s Charter Documents) to any portion of the proceeds in the Trust Account. Prior to the Closing, none of the funds held in the Trust Account may be released except: (A) to pay income and franchise taxes from any interest income earned in the Trust Account and Tax obligations; (B) in accordance with the Trust Agreement; and (C) to redeem Parent Class A Common Stock in accordance with the provisions of Parent’s Charter Documents. There are no Legal Proceedings pending or, to the Knowledge of Parent, threatened in writing with respect to the Trust Account. As of the Effective Time, the obligations of Parent to dissolve or liquidate pursuant to Parent’s Charter Documents shall terminate and, as of the Effective Time, Parent shall have no obligation whatsoever pursuant to Parent’s Charter Documents to dissolve and liquidate the assets of Parent by reason of the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby. To Knowledge of Parent, as of the date hereof, following the Effective Time, none of Parent’s stockholders shall be entitled to receive any amount from

the Trust Account except to the extent such Parent stockholder is exercising a Parent Stockholder Redemption. As of the date hereof, assuming the accuracy of the representations and warranties of the Company contained herein and the compliance by the Company with its obligations hereunder, Parent does have any reason to believe that any of the conditions to the use of funds in the Trust Account will not be satisfied or funds available in the Trust Account will not be available to Parent on the Closing Date.

Each party shall furnish all information concerning it and its Affiliates to the other party and provide such other assistance as may be reasonably requested by the other party to be included in the Merger Materials and shall otherwise reasonably assist and cooperate with the other party in the preparation of the Merger Materials and the resolution of any comments received from the SEC. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Company (i) agrees to promptly provide Parent with all information concerning the business, management, operations and financial condition of the Company, in each case, reasonably requested by Parent for inclusion in the Merger Materials and (ii) shall cause the directors, officers and employees of the Company to be reasonably available to, and to provide any documents reasonably requested by, Parent and its counsel in connection with the drafting of the Merger Materials and responding in a timely manner to comments on the Merger Materials from the SEC.

(c) If any information relating to the Company or Parent, or any of their respective Affiliates, directors or officers, should be discovered by the Company or Parent which is required to be set forth in an amendment or supplement to the Merger Materials so that such document would not include any misstatement of a material fact or omit to state any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, the party which discovers such information shall promptly notify the other party and an appropriate amendment or supplement describing such information shall be promptly filed with the SEC and, to the extent required by and in compliance with applicable Law, disseminated to the stockholders of the Company and Parent. Parent shall promptly notify the Company of the receipt of any comments from the SEC or the staff of the SEC and of any request by the SEC or the staff of the SEC for amendments or supplements to the Merger Materials or for additional information concerning the Merger Materials or the Mergers and shall, as promptly as practicable after receipt thereof, supply the Company with copies of all written correspondence between it or any of its Representatives, on the one hand, and the SEC or the staff of the SEC, on the other hand, or, if not in writing, a description of such communication, with respect to the Merger Materials or the Mergers.

(a) As promptly as practicable following the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective, the Company shall solicit the Requisite Company Stockholder Approval via written consent in accordance with Section 228 of the DGCL and the Company’s Charter Documents. In connection therewith, prior to the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective, the board of directors of the Company shall set a record date for determining the Company Stockholders entitled to provide such written consent. The Company shall use reasonable best efforts to cause the Written Consent Parties to duly execute and deliver stockholder written consents in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit H (the “Stockholder Written Consent”) in respect of the Company Stock beneficially owned by each such Written Consent Party (which represent (i) at least a majority of the outstanding voting power of the Company Stock issued and outstanding (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis), (ii) at least a majority of the shares of the Company Common Stock issued and outstanding as of the date hereof (voting as a single class) and (iii) at least a majority of the shares of the Company Preferred Stock issued and outstanding (voting as a single class and on an as-converted basis)) in accordance with the Company’s Charter Documents and Section 228 of the DGCL within three (3) Business Days of the Registration Statement becoming effective. As

Annex A-43

Table of Contents

promptly as practicable following the execution and delivery of the Stockholder Written Consents by the Written Consent Parties to the Company, the Company shall deliver to Parent a copy of such Stockholder Written Consent in accordance with Section 11.1. Promptly following the receipt of the Requisite Company Stockholder Approval via the Stockholder Written Consent, the Company will prepare (subject to the reasonable approval of Parent) and deliver to the Company Stockholders who have not executed and delivered the Stockholder Written Consent the notice required by Section 228(e) of the DGCL and include a description of the appraisal rights of the Company’s stockholders available under Section 262 of the DGCL, along with such other information as is required thereunder and pursuant to applicable Law. If any Written Consent Party fails to deliver its Stockholder Written Consent to the Company within three Business Days of the Registration Statement becoming effective (a “Written Consent Failure”), Parent shall have the right to terminate this Agreement as set forth in Section 9.1(i).

(b) The Consent Solicitation Statement shall include the Company Recommendation.

(c) Notwithstanding any Company Change in Recommendation, unless this Agreement has been earlier validly terminated in accordance with Section 9.1, the Company shall solicit the Requisite Company Stockholder Approval in accordance with Section 7.4(a), including using reasonable best efforts to cause all Company Stockholders to duly execute and deliver the Stockholder Written Consent, and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to relieve the Company of such obligation.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit the Company, the board of directors of the Company or their Representatives from directing any Person (or the Representative of that Person) who makes a Company Acquisition Proposal to the provisions of this Section 7.4; provided, however, that no such communication or statement that would constitute a Company Change in Recommendation shall be permitted.

Section 7.5 Parent Special Meeting; Parent Change in Recommendation.

(a) Parent shall, as promptly as practicable following the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective, cause a special meeting of its stockholders (the “Parent Special Meeting”) to be duly called and held as soon as reasonably practicable for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Parent Stockholder Approval and Parent shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain the Requisite Parent Stockholder Approval at the Parent Special Meeting. In connection therewith, promptly following the date upon which the Registration Statement becomes effective, the board of directors of Parent shall set a record date for determining the stockholders of Parent entitled to vote at the Parent Special Meeting. Parent shall comply with Law and all legal requirements applicable to such meeting, including the DGCL, Parent’s Charter Documents and the Exchange Act, including Regulation 14A and Schedule 14A promulgated thereunder, as applicable. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Parent shall be entitled to postpone or adjourn the Parent Special Meeting only: (i) to ensure that any supplement or amendment to the Parent Proxy Statement that the board of directors of Parent has reasonably determined in good faith after consultation with Parent’s outside legal counsel is required by applicable Law is disclosed to Parent’s stockholders and for such supplement or amendment to be promptly disseminated to Parent’s stockholders prior to the Parent Special Meeting; (ii) if, as of the time for which the Parent Special Meeting is originally scheduled (as set forth in the Parent

Annex A-44

Proxy Statement), there are insufficient shares of Parent Common Stock represented (either in person or by proxy) to constitute a quorum necessary to conduct the business to be conducted at the Parent Special Meeting; or (iii) in order to solicit additional proxies from stockholders for purposes of obtaining the Requisite Parent Stockholder Approval; provided, that (A) in the event of a postponement or adjournment pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above, the Parent Special Meeting shall be reconvened as promptly as practicable and in any event no later than five (5) Business Days after the date that such matters are resolved and (B) in no event shall the Parent Special Meeting be held later than three (3) Business Days prior to the Outside Date.

(b) The Parent Proxy Statement shall include the Parent Recommendation.

(c) Notwithstanding any Parent Change in Recommendation, unless this Agreement has been earlier validly terminated in accordance with Section 9.1, the Parent Stockholder Matters shall be submitted to Parent’s stockholders at the Parent Special Meeting for the purpose of obtaining the Requisite Parent Stockholder Approval and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to relieve Parent of such obligation.

(d) Nothing contained in this Agreement shall prohibit Parent, the board of directors of Parent or their Representatives from (i) taking and disclosing to Parent’s stockholders a position contemplated by Rule 14e-2(a) or Rule 14d-9 promulgated under the Exchange Act or issuing a “stop, look and listen” statement to Parent’s stockholders pursuant to Rule 14d-9(f) promulgated under the Exchange Act pending disclosure of its position thereunder or (ii) directing any Person (or the Representative of that Person) who makes a Parent Acquisition Proposal to the provisions of this Section 7.5; provided, however, that in the case of clause “(ii),” no such communication or statement that would constitute a Parent Change in Recommendation shall be permitted, made or taken.

Each Party will promptly furnish to the other such information and assistance as the other may reasonably request in connection with its preparation of any filing or submission that is necessary under the HSR Act and will use reasonable best efforts to cause the expiration or termination of the applicable waiting periods as soon as practicable, including by requesting early termination of the HSR waiting period. Neither Parent nor the Company shall, and each shall use reasonable best efforts to cause their respective Affiliates not to, directly or indirectly take any action, including, directly or indirectly, acquiring or investing in any Person or acquiring, leasing or licensing any assets, or agreement to do any of the foregoing, if doing so would reasonably be expected to impose any material delay in the obtaining of, or significantly increase the risk of not obtaining, any required approval under the HSR Act. Each Party will promptly provide the other with copies of all substantive written communications (and memoranda setting forth the substance of all substantive oral communications) between each of them, any of their Subsidiaries and their respective agents, representatives and advisors, on the one hand, and any Governmental Entity, on the other hand, with respect to this Agreement or the Transactions.

For a period of six (6) years from the Closing Date, Parent shall cause the Surviving Entity to maintain in effect the exculpation, indemnification and advancement of expenses provisions of the Company’s Charter Documents as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date or in any of their respective indemnification agreements with any D&O Indemnified Party as in effect immediately prior to the Closing Date, and Parent shall not, and shall cause the Surviving Entity not to, amend, repeal or otherwise modify any such provisions in any manner that would adversely affect the rights thereunder of any D&O Indemnified Party; provided, however, that all rights to indemnification or advancement of expenses in respect of any Legal Proceedings pending or asserted or any claim made within such period shall continue until the disposition of such Legal Proceeding or resolution of such claim.

(b) Prior to the Closing, the Company shall purchase a “tail” or “runoff” directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy (the “D&O Tail”) in respect of acts or omissions occurring prior to the Effective Time covering each such Person that is a director or officer of the Company currently covered by a directors’ and officers’ liability insurance policy of the Company on terms with respect to coverage, deductibles and amounts no less favorable than those of such policy in effect on the date of this Agreement for the six-year period following the Closing at a price not to exceed three-hundred percent (300%) of the last annual premium paid by the Company for such purpose. Parent shall, and shall cause the Surviving Entity to, maintain the D&O Tail in full force and effect for its full term and cause all obligations thereunder to be honored by the Company, as applicable, and no other party shall have any further obligation to purchase or pay for such insurance pursuant to this Section 7.15(b); provided, however, that in no event shall the premium of the D&O Tail exceed three-hundred percent (300%) of the last annual premium paid by the Company for such purpose; and provided, further, that if the cost of such insurance coverage exceeds such amount, the Surviving Entity shall obtain a policy with the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding such amount.

(c) The rights of each D&O Indemnified Party hereunder shall be in addition to, and not in limitation of, any other rights such person may have under the Charter Documents of the Company, any other indemnification arrangement, any Law or otherwise. The obligations of Parent and the Company under this Section 7.15 shall not be terminated or modified in such a manner as to adversely affect any D&O Indemnified Party without the consent of such D&O Indemnified Party. The provisions of this Section 7.15 shall survive the Closing and expressly are intended to benefit, and are enforceable by, each of the D&O Indemnified Parties, each of whom is an intended third-party beneficiary of this Section 7.15.

Parent shall take, or cause to be taken, all commercially reasonable actions and do, or cause to be done, all commercially reasonable things necessary, proper or advisable to consummate the transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements on the terms and conditions described therein, including maintaining in effect the Subscription Agreements and using its commercially reasonable efforts to: (i) satisfy in all material respects on a timely basis all conditions and covenants applicable to Parent in the Subscription Agreements and otherwise comply with its obligations thereunder, (ii) in the event that all conditions to the investor’s obligation to fund in the Subscription Agreements (other than conditions that Parent or any of its Affiliates exclusively control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, consummate transactions contemplated by the Subscription Agreements at or prior to Closing; (iii) deliver any required notices to counterparties to the Subscription Agreements sufficiently in advance of the Closing to cause them, in the event that all conditions to the investor’s obligation to fund in the Subscription Agreements are satisfied (other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing), to fund their obligations at or prior to or concurrently with the Closing; and (iv) without limiting the Company’s rights to enforce such Subscription Agreements pursuant to Section 11.6, enforce its rights under the Subscription Agreements in the event that all conditions to the investor’s obligation to fund in the Subscription Agreements (other than conditions that Parent or any of its Affiliates control the satisfaction of and other than those conditions that by their nature are to be satisfied at the Closing) have been satisfied, to cause the applicable PIPE Investors to pay to (or as directed by) Parent the applicable portion of the PIPE Investment Amount, as applicable, set forth in the Subscription Agreements in accordance with their terms.

(b) Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Parent shall give the Company prompt written notice: (i) of any material amendment to any Subscription Agreement (other than as a result of any assignments or transfers contemplated therein or otherwise permitted thereby); (ii) of any material breach or default (or any event or circumstance that, with or without notice, lapse of time or both, would be reasonably likely to give rise to any material breach or default) by any party to any Subscription Agreement known to Parent; (iii) of the receipt of any written notice or other written communication from any party to any Subscription Agreement with respect to any actual, potential, threatened or claimed expiration, lapse, withdrawal, material breach, material default, termination or repudiation by any party to any Subscription Agreement or any material provisions of any Subscription Agreement; and (iv) if Parent does not expect to receive all or any portion of the PIPE Investment Amount on the terms, in the manner or from the PIPE Investors as contemplated by the Subscription Agreements.

(c) The provisions of this Section 7.22 and Section 7.26 are solely for the benefit of the Parties, and nothing contained in this Agreement, express or implied, shall confer upon any Continuing Employee or legal representative or beneficiary or dependent thereof, or any other Person, any rights or remedies of any nature or kind whatsoever under or by reason of this Agreement, whether as a third-party beneficiary or otherwise, including any right to employment or service or continued employment or service for any specified period, any particular term or condition of employment or service, or level of compensation or benefits.

Section 11.3 Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement, the Transaction Agreements and each other document executed in connection with the Transactions, and the consummation thereof, may be executed in one or more counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same document and shall become effective when one or more counterparts have been signed by each of the Parties and delivered to the other Parties, it being understood that all Parties need not sign the same counterpart. The Parties agree that the delivery of this Agreement, the Transaction Agreements and each other document executed in connection with the Transactions, may be effected by means of an exchange and release of electronically transmitted signatures (including by electronic mail in.pdf format). Delivery by electronic transmission to counsel for the other Parties of a counterpart executed by a Party shall be deemed to meet the requirements of the previous sentence.

Section 11.4 Entire Agreement; Third Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement and the other Transaction Agreements: (a) constitute the entire agreement among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and supersede all prior agreements and understandings, both written and oral, among the Parties with respect to the subject matter hereof; and (b) other than the rights, at and after the Effective Time, of Persons pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.15 (Directors’ and Officers’ Liability Insurance) and Section 11.14 (No Recourse) (which will be for the benefit of the Persons set forth therein), are not intended to confer upon any other Person other than the Parties any rights or remedies.

Section 11.5 Severability. In the event that any term, provision, covenant or restriction of this Agreement, or the application thereof, is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any present or future Law: (a) such provision will be fully severable; (b) this Agreement will be construed and enforced as if such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision had never comprised a part hereof; (c) the remaining provisions of this Agreement will remain in full force and effect and will not be affected by the illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision or by its severance herefrom; and (d) in lieu of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision, there will be added automatically as a part of this Agreement a legal, valid and enforceable provision as similar in terms of such illegal, invalid or unenforceable provision as may be possible.

Section 11.6 Other Remedies; Specific Performance. Except as otherwise provided herein, prior to the Closing, any and all remedies herein expressly conferred upon a Party will be deemed cumulative with and not exclusive of any other remedy conferred hereby, or by law or equity upon such Party, and the exercise by a Party of any one remedy will not preclude the exercise of any other remedy. The Parties agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of this Agreement were not performed in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. It is accordingly agreed that each Party shall be entitled to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement in any court of the United States or any state having jurisdiction and immediate injunctive relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement, without the necessity of proving the inadequacy of money damages as a remedy and without bond or other security being required, this being in addition to any other remedy to which they are entitled at law or in equity. Each of the Parties hereby acknowledges and agrees that it may be difficult to prove damages with reasonable certainty, that it may be difficult to procure suitable substitute performance, and that injunctive relief and/or specific performance will not cause an undue hardship to the Parties. Each of the Parties hereby further acknowledges that the existence of any other remedy contemplated by this Agreement does not diminish the availability of specific performance of the obligations hereunder or any other injunctive relief. Each Party hereby further agrees that in the event of any action by any other party for specific performance or injunctive relief, it will not assert that a remedy at law or other remedy would be adequate or that specific performance or injunctive relief in respect of such breach or violation should not be available on the grounds that money damages are adequate or any other grounds. Parent acknowledges and agrees that the Company shall be entitled to bring an action for specific enforcement to cause Parent to seek to enforce the provisions of the Subscription Agreements to the fullest extent permissible pursuant to such Subscription Agreements as if it were a party thereto.

Section 11.7 Governing Law. This Agreement and the consummation the Transactions, and any action, suit, dispute, controversy or claim arising out of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, or the validity, interpretation, breach or termination of this Agreement and the consummation of the Transactions, shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal law of the State of Delaware regardless of the law that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of law thereof.

Section 11.8 Consent to Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial.

(a) Each of the Parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware; provided, that if the Court of Chancery of Delaware declines jurisdiction or if subject matter jurisdiction over the matter that is the subject of the Legal Proceeding is vested exclusively in the U.S. federal courts, such Legal Proceeding shall be heard in, and each of the Parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of, the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware; provided, further, that if the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware declines jurisdiction or if subject matter jurisdiction over the matter that is the subject of the Legal Proceeding is vested exclusively in the Delaware state courts, such Legal Proceeding shall be heard in, and each of the Parties irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of, the Delaware state courts located in Wilmington, Delaware (together with the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware and the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, the “Chosen Courts”) in connection with any matter based upon or arising out of this Agreement, the other Transaction Agreements and the consummation of the Transactions. Each Party and any Person asserting rights as a third-party beneficiary may do so only if he, she or it hereby waives, and shall not assert as a defense in any legal dispute, that: (i) such Person is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the Chosen Courts for any reason; (ii) such Legal Proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in the Chosen Courts; (iii) such Person’s property is exempt or immune from execution; (iv) such Legal Proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum; or (v) the venue of such Legal Proceeding is improper. Each Party and any Person asserting rights as a third-party beneficiary hereby agrees not to commence or prosecute any such action, claim, cause of action or suit other than before the Chosen Courts, nor to make any motion or take any other action seeking or intending to cause the transfer or removal of any such action, claim, cause of action or suit to any court other than the Chosen Courts, whether on the grounds of inconvenient forum or otherwise. Each Party hereby consents to service of process in any such proceeding in any manner permitted by laws of the State of Delaware, and further consents to service of process by nationally recognized overnight courier service guaranteeing overnight delivery, or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, at its address specified pursuant to Section 11.1, and waives and covenants not to assert or plead any objection which they might otherwise have to such manner of service of process. Notwithstanding the foregoing in this Section 11.8, any Party may commence any action, claim, cause of action or suit in a court other than the Chosen Courts solely for the purpose of enforcing an order or judgment issued by the Chosen Courts.

(b) TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW WHICH CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH OF THE PARTIES AND ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, EACH OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS, IN EACH CASE WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, THE OTHER TRANSACTION AGREEMENTS AND THE CONSUMMATION OF THE TRANSACTIONS. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD-PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

Section 11.9 Rules of Construction. Each of the Parties agrees that it has been represented by independent counsel of its choice during the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and each Party hereto and its counsel cooperated in the drafting and preparation of this Agreement and the documents referred to herein and, therefore, waive the application of any law, regulation, holding or rule of construction providing that ambiguities in an agreement or other document will be construed against the Party drafting such agreement or document.

Section 11.10 Expenses. Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, whether or not the Transactions are consummated, each Party will pay its own costs and expenses incurred in anticipation of, relating to and in connection with the negotiation and execution of this Agreement and the Transaction Agreements and the consummation of the Transactions; provided, that if the Closing shall occur, Parent shall (a) pay or cause to be paid, in accordance with Section 1.4(g), the Company Transaction Costs to the extent not paid by the Company prior to the Closing and (b) pay or cause to be paid, in accordance with Section 1.4(b), any Parent Transaction Costs. For the avoidance of doubt, any payments to be made (or to cause to be made) by Parent pursuant to this Section 11.10 shall be paid only upon consummation of the Mergers and release of proceeds from the Trust Account.

Section 11.11 Assignment. No Party may assign, directly or indirectly, including by operation of law, either this Agreement or any of its rights, interests, or obligations hereunder without the prior written approval of the other Parties. Subject to the first sentence of this Section 11.11, this Agreement shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns.

Section 11.12 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended by the Parties at any time by execution of an instrument in writing signed on behalf of each of the Parties.

Section 11.13 Extension; Waiver. At any time prior to the Closing, Parent (on behalf of itself, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub), on the one hand, and the Company (on behalf of itself and the holders of Company Interests) may, to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law: (a) extend the time for the performance of any of the obligations or other acts of the other Party; (b) waive any inaccuracies in the representations and warranties made to the other Party contained herein or in any document delivered pursuant hereto; and (c) waive compliance with any of the agreements or conditions for the benefit of such Party contained herein. Any agreement on the part of a Party to any such extension or waiver shall be valid only if set forth in an instrument in writing signed on behalf of such Party. Delay in exercising any right under this Agreement shall not constitute a waiver of such right. In the event any provision of any of the other Transaction Agreement in any way conflicts with the provisions of this Agreement (except where a provision therein expressly provides that it is intended to take precedence over this Agreement), this Agreement shall control.

Section 11.14 No Recourse. Notwithstanding anything that may be expressed or implied in this Agreement, this Agreement may only be enforced against, and any Legal Proceeding for breach of this Agreement may only be made against, the entities that are expressly identified herein as Parties to this Agreement, and no Released Related Party of a Party shall have any liability for any liabilities or obligations of the Parties for any Legal Proceeding (whether in tort, contract or otherwise) for breach of this Agreement or in respect of any oral representations made or alleged to be made in connection herewith. No Party shall have any right of recovery in respect hereof against any Released Related Party of a Party and no personal liability shall attach to any Released Related Party of a Party through such Party, whether by or through attempted piercing of the corporate veil, by the enforcement of any judgment, fine or penalty or by virtue of any Law or otherwise. The provisions of this Section 11.14 are intended to be for the benefit of, and enforceable by the Released Related Parties of the Parties and each such Person shall be a third-party beneficiary of this Section 11.14. This Section 11.14 shall be binding on all successors and assigns of Parties.

Section 11.15 Legal Representation. Parent hereby agrees on behalf of its directors, members, partners, officers, employees and Affiliates (including after the Closing, the Company), and each of their respective successors and assigns (all such parties, the “Waiving Parties”), that Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP (or any successor) may represent the holders of Company Interests or any of their respective directors, members, partners, officers, employees or Affiliates (other than the Company) (collectively, the “Waiving Party Group”), in each case, in connection with any Legal Proceeding or obligation arising out of or relating to this Agreement, any Transaction Agreement or the Transactions, notwithstanding its representation (or any continued representation) of the Company or other Waiving Parties, and each of Parent and the Company on behalf of itself and the Waiving Parties hereby consents thereto and irrevocably waives (and will not assert) any conflict of interest, breach of duty or any other objection arising therefrom or relating thereto. Parent and the Company acknowledge that the foregoing provision applies whether or not Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP provides legal services to the Company after the Closing Date. Each of Parent and the Company, for itself and the Waiving Parties, hereby further irrevocably acknowledges and agrees that all communications, written or oral, between the Company or any member of the Waiving Party Group and its counsel, including Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, made prior to the Closing in connection with the negotiation, preparation, execution, delivery and performance under, or any dispute or Legal Proceeding arising out of or relating to, this Agreement, any Transaction Agreements or the Transactions, or any matter relating to any of the foregoing, are privileged communications that do not pass to the Company notwithstanding the Mergers, and instead survive, remain with and are controlled by the Waiving Party Group (the “Privileged Communications”), without any waiver thereof. Parent and the Company, together with any of their respective Affiliates, Subsidiaries, successors or assigns, agree that no Person may use or rely on any of the Privileged Communications, whether located in the records or email server of the Company or otherwise (including in the knowledge of the officers and employees of the Company), in any Legal Proceeding against or involving any of the Parties after the Closing, and Parent and the Company agree not to assert that any privilege has been waived as to the Privileged Communications, whether located in the records or email server of the Company or otherwise (including in the knowledge of the officers and employees of the Company).

Section 11.16 Disclosure Letters and Exhibits. The Company Disclosure Letter and Parent Disclosure Letter shall each be arranged in separate parts corresponding to the numbered and lettered sections and subsections in this Agreement, and the information disclosed in any numbered or lettered part shall be deemed to relate to and to qualify only the particular provision set forth in the corresponding numbered or lettered Section or subsection of this Agreement, except to the extent that: (a) such information is cross-referenced in another part of the Company Disclosure Letter or Parent Disclosure Letter, as applicable; or (b) it is reasonably apparent on the face of the disclosure (without any independent knowledge on the part of the reader regarding the matter disclosed) that such information qualifies another provision in this Agreement.

Section 1. The business and affairs of the Corporation shall be managed by or under the direction of the Board, except as otherwise provided by law.

Section 5. Subject to the special rights of the holders of any series of Preferred Stock to elect directors, any vacancy occurring in the Board for any cause, and any newly created directorship resulting from any increase in the authorized number of directors, shall, unless (a) the Board determines by resolution that any such vacancies or newly created directorships shall be filled by the stockholders or (b) as otherwise provided by law, be filled only by the affirmative vote of a majority of the directors then in office, even if less than a quorum, or by a sole remaining director, and not by the stockholders. Any director elected in accordance with the preceding sentence shall hold office for a term expiring at the annual meeting of stockholders at which the term of office of the class to which the director has been assigned expires or until such director’s successor shall have been duly elected and qualified, or until such director’s earlier death, resignation, disqualification or removal. No decrease in the authorized number of directors shall shorten the term of any incumbent director.

For purposes of this Section 2(h), the term “Person” shall have the same meaning as when used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act but shall exclude:

If required for compliance with Section 409A of the Code, in no event will a Change in Control be deemed to have occurred if such transaction is not also a “change in the ownership or effective control of” the Company or “a change in the ownership of a substantial portion of the assets of” the Company as determined under Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) (without regard to any alternative definition thereunder).

(i)     “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to the provisions of Section 15 below, in no event shall the maximum aggregate number of Shares that may be issued under the Plan pursuant to Incentive Stock Options exceed the number set forth in this Section 3(a) plus, to the extent allowable under Section 422 of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, any Shares that again become available for issuance pursuant to Sections 3(b) and 3(c).

Provider) shall again be available for future grant under the Plan. To the extent an Award under the Plan is paid out in cash rather than Shares, such cash payment will not result in reducing the number of Shares available for issuance under the Plan.

(d)     Assumption or Substitution of Awards by the Company.    The Administrator, from time to time, may determine to substitute or assume outstanding awards granted by another company, whether in connection with an acquisition of such other company or otherwise, by either: (a) assuming such award under this Plan or (b) granting an Award under this Plan in substitution of such other company’s award. Such assumption or substitution will be permissible if the holder of the substituted or assumed award would have been eligible to be granted an Award under this Plan if the other company had applied the rules of this Plan to such grant. In the event the Administrator elects to assume an award granted by another company, subject to the requirements of Section 409A of the Code, the purchase price or the exercise price, as the case may be, and the number and nature of Shares issuable upon exercise or settlement of any such Award will be adjusted appropriately. In the event the Administrator elects to grant a new Option in substitution rather than assuming an existing option, such new Option may be granted with a similarly adjusted exercise price. Any awards that are assumed or substituted under this Plan shall not reduce the number of Shares authorized for grant under the Plan or authorized for grant to a Participant in any fiscal year.

4.     Administration of the Plan.

(a)     Procedure.

(i)     Multiple Administrative Bodies.    Different Committees with respect to different groups of Service Providers may administer the Plan.

(vi)     to institute and determine the terms and conditions of an Exchange Program; provided however, that the Administrator shall not implement an Exchange Program without the approval of the holders of a majority of the Shares that are present in person or by proxy and entitled to vote at any annual or special meeting of the Company’s stockholders;

(xi)     adjust Performance Goals to take into account changes in Applicable Laws or in accounting or tax rules, or such other extraordinary, unforeseeable, nonrecurring or infrequently occurring events or circumstances as the Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to avoid windfalls or hardships;

(xii)     to allow Participants to satisfy tax withholding obligations in such manner as prescribed in Section 16 of the Plan;

(xiii)     to authorize any person to execute on behalf of the Company any instrument required to effect the grant of an Award previously granted by the Administrator;

(xiv)     to allow a Participant to defer the receipt of the payment of cash or the delivery of Shares that would otherwise be due to such Participant under an Award; and

(xv)     to make all other determinations deemed necessary or advisable for administering the Plan.

(c)     Effect of Administrator’s Decision.    The Administrator’s decisions, determinations and interpretations will be final and binding on all Participants and any other holders of Awards. Any dispute regarding the interpretation of the Plan or any Award Agreement shall be submitted by the Participant to the Company for review. Any Officer of the Company, including but not limited to Insiders, shall have the authority to review and resolve disputes with respect to Awards held by Participants who are not Insiders, and such resolution shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant. Only the Committee shall have the authority to review and resolve disputes with respect to Awards held by Participants who are Insiders, and such resolution shall be final and binding on the Company and the Participant.

(d)     Delegation.    To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, the Board or Committee, in its sole discretion and on such terms and conditions as it may provide, may delegate all or any part of its authority and powers under the Plan to one or more Directors or officers of the Company. To the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, the Board or Committee may delegate to one or more officers of the Company who may be (but are not required to be) Insiders (“Officers”), the authority to do any of the following (i) designate Employees who are not Insiders to be recipients of Awards, (ii) determine the number of Shares to be subject to such Awards granted to such designated Employees, and (iii) take any and all actions on behalf of the Board or Committee other than any actions that affect the amount or form of compensation of Insiders or have material tax, accounting, financial, human resource or legal consequences to the Company or its Affiliates; provided, however, that the Board or Committee resolutions regarding any delegation with respect to (i) and (ii) will specify the total number of Shares that may be subject to the Awards granted by such Officer and that such Officer may not grant an Award to himself or herself. Any Awards will be granted on the form of Award Agreement most recently approved for use by the Board or Committee, unless otherwise provided in the resolutions approving the delegation authority.

(e)     Administration of Awards Subject to Performance Goals.    The Administrator will, in its sole discretion, determine the Performance Goals, if any, applicable to any Award (including any adjustment(s) thereto that will be applied in determining the achievement of such Performance Goals) on or prior to the Determination Date. The Performance Goals may differ from Participant to Participant and from Award to Award. The Administrator shall determine and approve the extent to which such Performance Goals have been timely achieved and the extent to which the Shares subject to such Award have thereby been earned.

(f)     Section 16 of the Exchange Act.    Awards granted to Participants who are Insiders must be approved by two or more “non-employee directors” of the Board (as defined in the regulations promulgated under Section 16 of the Exchange Act).

6.     Stock Options.

(a)     Limitations.    Each Option will be designated in the Award Agreement as either an Incentive Stock Option or a Nonstatutory Stock Option. However, notwithstanding such designation, to the extent that the aggregate Fair Market Value of the Shares with respect to which Incentive Stock Options are exercisable for the first time by the Participant during any calendar year (under all plans of the Company and any Affiliate) exceeds one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000), such Options will be treated as Nonstatutory Stock Options. For purposes of this Section 6(a), Incentive Stock Options will be taken into account in the order in which they were granted. The Fair Market Value of the Shares will be determined as of the date the Option with respect to such Shares is granted. With respect to the Administrator’s authority in Section 4(b)(x), if, at the time of any such extension, the exercise price per Share of the Option is less than the Fair Market Value of a Share, the extension shall, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, be limited to the earlier of (1) the maximum term of the Option as set by its original terms, or (2) ten (10) years from the grant date. Unless otherwise determined by the Administrator, any extension of the term of an Option pursuant to this Section 6(a) shall comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent necessary to avoid taxation thereunder.

(b)     Term of Option.    The term of each Option will be stated in the Award Agreement. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the term will be ten (10) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement. Moreover, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option granted to a Participant who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the total combined voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Affiliate, the term of the Incentive Stock Option will be five (5) years from the date of grant or such shorter term as may be provided in the Award Agreement.

(c)     Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

(i)     Exercise Price.    The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of an Option will be determined by the Administrator, subject to the following:

(1)     In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

(A)     granted to an Employee who, at the time the Incentive Stock Option is granted, owns stock representing more than ten percent (10%) of the voting power of all classes of stock of the Company or any Affiliate, the per Share exercise price will be no less than one hundred ten percent (110%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(B)     granted to any Employee other than an Employee described in paragraph (A) immediately above, the per Share exercise price will be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(2)     In the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option, the per Share exercise price will be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant.

(3)     Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price of less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant pursuant to a transaction described in, and in a manner consistent with, Section 424(a) of the Code.

(ii)     Waiting Period and Exercise Dates.    At the time an Option is granted, the Administrator will fix the period within which the Option may be exercised and will determine any conditions that must be satisfied before the Option may be exercised. An Option may become exercisable upon completion of a specified period of service with the Company or an Affiliate and/or based on the achievement of Performance Goals during a Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. If an Option is exercisable based on the satisfaction of Performance Goals, then the Administrator will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for such Option; (y) select the Performance Goals to be used to measure the performance; and (z) determine what additional vesting conditions, if any, should apply.

(iii)     Form of Consideration.    The Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration for exercising an Option, including the method of payment. In the case of an Incentive Stock Option, the Administrator will determine the acceptable form of consideration at the time of grant. Such consideration for both types of Options may consist entirely of: (1) cash; (2) check; (3) promissory note, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws, (4) other Shares, provided that such Shares have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which such Option will be exercised and provided that accepting

Annex C-8

Table of Contents

such Shares will not result in any adverse accounting consequences to the Company, as the Administrator determines in its sole discretion; (5) consideration received by the Company under a broker-assisted (or other) cashless exercise program (whether through a broker or otherwise) implemented by the Company in connection with the Plan; (6) by net exercise; (7) such other consideration and method of payment for the issuance of Shares to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws; or (8) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment.

(d)     Exercise of Option.

(i)     Procedure for Exercise; Rights as a Stockholder.    Any Option granted hereunder will be exercisable according to the terms of the Plan and at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share.

An Option will be deemed exercised when the Company receives: (i) a notice of exercise (in such form as the Administrator may specify from time to time) from the person entitled to exercise the Option, and (ii) full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised (together with full payment of any applicable taxes or other amounts required to be withheld or deducted with respect to the Option). Full payment may consist of any consideration and method of payment authorized by the Administrator and permitted by the Award Agreement and the Plan. Shares issued upon exercise of an Option will be issued in the name of the Participant or, if requested by the Participant, in the name of the Participant and his or her spouse. Until the Shares are issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a stockholder will exist with respect to the Shares subject to an Option, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. The Company will issue (or cause to be issued) such Shares promptly after the Option is exercised. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Shares are issued, except as provided in Section 15 of the Plan.

(ii)     Termination of Relationship as a Service Provider.    If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider, other than upon the Participant’s termination as the result of the Participant’s death, Disability or Cause, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for three (3) months following the Participant’s termination. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If after termination the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified by the Administrator, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

(iii)     Disability of Participant.    If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of the Participant’s Disability, the Participant may exercise his or her Option within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent the Option is vested on the date of termination (but in no event later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement). In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following the Participant’s termination. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If after termination the Participant does not exercise his or her Option within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

(iv)     Death of Participant.    If a Participant dies while a Service Provider, the Option may be exercised following the Participant’s death within such period of time as is specified in the Award Agreement to the extent that the Option is vested on the date of death (but in no event may the Option be exercised later than the expiration of the term of such Option as set forth in the Award Agreement), by the Participant’s designated beneficiary, provided such beneficiary has been designated prior to Participant’s death in a form acceptable to the Administrator. If no such beneficiary has been designated by the Participant, then such Option may be exercised by the personal representative of the Participant’s estate or by the person(s) to whom the Option is transferred pursuant to the Participant’s will or in accordance with the laws of descent and distribution. In the absence of a specified time in the Award Agreement, the Option will remain exercisable for twelve (12) months following Participant’s death. Unless otherwise provided by the Administrator, if on the date of termination the Participant is not vested as to his or her entire Option, the Shares covered by the unvested portion of the Option will revert to the Plan. If the Option is not so exercised within the time specified herein, the Option will terminate, and the Shares covered by such Option will revert to the Plan.

Annex C-9

Table of Contents

(v)     Termination for Cause.    If a Participant ceases to be a Service Provider as a result of being terminated for Cause, any outstanding Option (including any vested portion thereof) held by such Participant shall immediately terminate in its entirety upon the Participant being first notified of his or her termination for Cause and the Participant will be prohibited from exercising his or her Option from and after the date of such termination. All the Participant’s rights under any Option, including the right to exercise the Option, may be suspended pending an investigation of whether Participant will be terminated for Cause.

7.     Restricted Stock.

(a)     Grant of Restricted Stock.    Subject to the terms and provisions of the Plan, the Administrator, at any time and from time to time, may grant Shares of Restricted Stock to Service Providers in such amounts as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine.

(b)     Restricted Stock Agreement.    Each Award of Restricted Stock will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the Period of Restriction, the number of Shares granted, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Company as escrow agent will hold Shares of Restricted Stock until the restrictions on such Shares have lapsed. These restrictions may lapse upon the completion of a specified period of service with the Company or an Affiliate and/or based on the achievement of Performance Goals during a Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. If the unvested Shares of Restricted Stock are being earned upon the satisfaction of Performance Goals, then the Administrator will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for each unvested Share; (y) select the Performance Goals to be used to measure the performance; and (z) determine what additional vesting conditions, if any, should apply.

(c)     Transferability.    Except as provided in this Section 7 or the Award Agreement, Shares of Restricted Stock may not be sold, transferred, pledged, assigned, or otherwise alienated or hypothecated until the end of the applicable Period of Restriction.

(d)     Other Restrictions.    The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may impose such other restrictions on Shares of Restricted Stock as it may deem advisable or appropriate.

(e)     Removal of Restrictions.    Except as otherwise provided in this Section 7, Shares of Restricted Stock covered by each Restricted Stock grant made under the Plan will be released from escrow as soon as practicable after the last day of the Period of Restriction or at such other time as the Administrator may determine. The Administrator, in its discretion, may accelerate the time at which any restrictions will lapse or be removed.

(f)     Voting Rights.    During the Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock granted hereunder may exercise full voting rights with respect to those Shares, unless the Administrator determines otherwise.

(g)     Dividends and Other Distributions.    During the Period of Restriction, Service Providers holding Shares of Restricted Stock will be entitled to receive all dividends and other distributions paid with respect to such Shares, unless the Administrator provides otherwise. If any such dividends or distributions are paid in Shares, the Shares will be subject to the same restrictions, including, without limitation, restrictions on transferability and forfeitability, as the Shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which they were paid. During the Period of Restriction, such dividends or other distributions shall be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the shares of Restricted Stock with respect to which the dividends accrue and shall not be paid or distributed unless and until such related Shares have vested and been earned.

(h)     Return of Restricted Stock to Company.    On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, the Restricted Stock for which restrictions have not lapsed will be cancelled and returned as unissued Shares to the Company and again will become available for grant under the Plan.

8.     Restricted Stock Units.

(a)     Grant.    Restricted Stock Units may be granted at any time and from time to time as determined by the Administrator. After the Administrator determines that it will grant Restricted Stock Units under the Plan, it will advise the Participant in an Award Agreement of the terms, conditions, and restrictions (if any) related to the grant, including the number of Restricted Stock Units.

Annex C-10

Table of Contents

(b)     Vesting Criteria and Other Terms.    The Administrator will set vesting criteria in its discretion, which, depending on the extent to which the criteria are met, will determine the number of Restricted Stock Units that will be paid out to the Participant. A Restricted Stock Unit Award may vest upon completion of a specified period of service with the Company or an Affiliate and/or based on the achievement of Performance Goals during a Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. If Restricted Stock Units vest based upon satisfaction of Performance Goals, then the Administrator will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for the Restricted Stock Units; (y) select the Performance Goals to be used to measure the performance; and (z) determine what additional vesting conditions, if any, should apply.

(c)     Earning Restricted Stock Units.    Upon meeting the applicable vesting criteria, the Participant will be entitled to receive a payout as determined by the Administrator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, at any time after the grant of Restricted Stock Units, the Administrator, in its sole discretion, may reduce or waive any vesting criteria that must be met to receive a payout.

(d)     Dividend Equivalents.    The Administrator may, in its sole discretion, award dividend equivalents in connection with the grant of Restricted Stock Units that may be settled in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof. Absent a contrary provision in an Award Agreement, such dividend equivalents shall be subject to the same restrictions and risk of forfeiture as the Restricted Stock Units with respect to which the dividends accrue and shall not be paid or settled unless and until the related Restricted Stock Units have vested and been earned.

(e)     Form and Timing of Payment.    Payment of earned Restricted Stock Units will be made upon the date(s) determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Award Agreement. The Administrator, in its sole discretion, may only settle earned Restricted Stock Units in cash, Shares, or a combination of both.

(f)     Cancellation.    On the date set forth in the Award Agreement, all Shares underlying any unvested, unlapsed unearned Restricted Stock Units will be forfeited to the Company for future issuance.

9.     Stock Appreciation Rights.

(a)     Grant of Stock Appreciation Rights.    Subject to the terms and conditions of the Plan, a Stock Appreciation Right may be granted to Service Providers at any time and from time to time as will be determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion.

(b)     Number of Shares.    The Administrator will have complete discretion to determine the number of Stock Appreciation Rights granted to any Service Provider.

(c)     Exercise Price and Other Terms.    The per share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right will be determined by the Administrator and will be no less than one hundred percent (100%) of the Fair Market Value per Share on the date of grant. Otherwise, the Administrator, subject to the provisions of the Plan, will have complete discretion to determine the terms and conditions of Stock Appreciation Rights granted under the Plan.

(d)     Stock Appreciation Right Agreement.    Each Stock Appreciation Right grant will be evidenced by an Award Agreement that will specify the exercise price, the term of the Stock Appreciation Right, the conditions of exercise, and such other terms and conditions as the Administrator, in its sole discretion, will determine. A Stock Appreciation Right may become exercisable upon completion of a specified period of service with the Company or an Affiliate and/or based on the achievement of Performance Goals during a Performance Period as set out in advance in the Participant’s Award Agreement. If a Stock Appreciation Right is exercisable based on the satisfaction of Performance Goals, then the Administrator will: (x) determine the nature, length and starting date of any Performance Period for such Stock Appreciation Right; (y) select the Performance Goals to be used to measure the performance; and (z) determine what additional vesting conditions, if any, should apply.

(e)     Expiration of Stock Appreciation Rights.    A Stock Appreciation Right granted under the Plan will expire upon the date determined by the Administrator, in its sole discretion, and set forth in the Award Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the rules of Section 6(b) relating to the maximum term and Section 6(d) relating to exercise also will apply to Stock Appreciation Rights.

Annex C-11

Table of Contents

(f)     Payment of Stock Appreciation Right Amount.    Upon exercise of a Stock Appreciation Right, a Participant will be entitled to receive payment from the Company in an amount determined by multiplying:

(i)     The difference between the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of exercise over the exercise price; times

(ii)     The number of Shares with respect to which the Stock Appreciation Right is exercised.

At the discretion of the Administrator, the payment upon Stock Appreciation Right exercise may be in cash, in Shares of equivalent value, or in some combination thereof.

10.     Stock Bonus Awards.

(a)     Awards of Stock Bonuses.    A Stock Bonus Award is an award of Shares to an eligible person without a purchase price that is not subject to any restrictions. All Stock Bonus Awards may but are not required to be made pursuant to an Award Agreement.

(b)     Terms of Stock Bonus Awards.    The Administrator will determine the number of Shares to be awarded to the Participant under a Stock Bonus Award.

(c)     Form of Payment to Participant.    Payment may be made in the form of cash, whole Shares, or a combination thereof, based on the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to the Stock Bonus Award on the date of payment, as determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator.

11.     Outside Director Limitations.    Stock awards granted during a single fiscal year under the Plan or otherwise, taken together with any cash fees paid during such fiscal year for services on the Board, shall not exceed (i) $1,000,000 in total value for any Outside Director serving as the lead director of the Board or chair of the Board (including with respect to the first year of service) and (ii) $500,000 in total value for any other Outside Director, except with respect to the first year of service in which case any stock awards granted and cash fees paid will not exceed $1,000,000 in total value (calculating the value of any such stock awards, in each case, based on the grant date fair value of such stock awards for financial reporting purposes). Such applicable limit shall include the value of any stock awards that are received in lieu of all or a portion of any annual committee cash retainers or other similar cash based payments. Stock awards granted to an individual while he or she was serving in the capacity as an Employee or while he or she was an Independent Contractor but not an Outside Director will not count for purposes of the limitations set forth in this Section 11.

12.     Leaves of Absence/Transfer Between Locations.    The Administrator shall have the discretion to determine at any time whether and to what extent the vesting of Awards shall be suspended during any leave of absence; provided, however, that in the absence of such determination, vesting of Awards shall continue during any paid leave and shall be suspended during any unpaid leave (unless otherwise required by Applicable Laws). A Participant will not cease to be an Employee in the case of (i) any leave of absence approved by the Participant’s employer or (ii) transfers between locations of the Company or between the Company or any Affiliate. If an Employee is holding an Incentive Stock Option and such leave exceeds three (3) months then, for purposes of Incentive Stock Option status only, such Employee’s service as an Employee shall be deemed terminated on the first (1st) day following such three (3) month period and the Incentive Stock Option shall thereafter automatically treated for tax purposes as a Nonstatutory Stock Option in accordance with Applicable Laws, unless reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute, or unless provided otherwise pursuant to a written Company policy.

13.     Change in Time Commitment.    In the event a Participant’s regular level of time commitment in the performance of his or her services for the Company or any Affiliates is reduced (for example, and without limitation, if the Participant is an Employee of the Company and the Employee has a change in status from full-time to part-time or takes an extended leave of absence) after the date of grant of any Award, the Committee or the Administrator, in that party’s sole discretion, may (x) make a corresponding reduction in the number of Shares or cash amount subject to any portion of such Award that is scheduled to vest or become payable after the date of such change in time commitment, and (y) in lieu of or in combination with such a reduction, extend the vesting schedule applicable to such Award (in accordance with Section 409A of the Code, as applicable). In the event of any such reduction, the Participant will have no right with respect to any portion of the Award that is so amended.

Annex C-12

Table of Contents

14.     Transferability of Awards.    Unless determined otherwise by the Administrator, an Award may not be sold, pledged, assigned, hypothecated, transferred, or disposed of in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised, during the lifetime of the Participant, only by the Participant. If the Administrator makes an Award transferable, such Award will contain such additional terms and conditions as the Administrator deems appropriate provided, however, that in no event may any Award be transferred for consideration to a third-party financial institution.

15.     Adjustments; Dissolution or Liquidation; Merger or Change in Control.

(a)     Adjustments.    In the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, consolidation, recapitalization (including a recapitalization through a large nonrecurring cash dividend) or reclassification of the Shares, subdivision of the Shares, a rights offering, a reorganization, merger, spin-off, split-up, repurchase, or exchange of Common Stock or other securities of the Company or other significant corporate transaction, or other change affecting the Common Stock occurs, the Administrator, in order to prevent dilution, diminution or enlargement of the benefits or potential benefits intended to be made available under the Plan, will, in such manner as it may deem equitable, adjust the number, kind and class of securities that may be delivered under the Plan and/or the number, class, kind and price of securities covered by each outstanding Award. Notwithstanding the forgoing, all adjustments under this Section 15 shall be made in a manner that does not result in taxation under Section 409A of the Code.

(b)     Dissolution or Liquidation.    In the event of the proposed winding up, dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Administrator will notify each Participant as soon as practicable prior to the effective date of such proposed transaction. To the extent it has not been previously exercised or settled, an Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such proposed action.

(c)     Corporate Transaction.    In the event of (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, (ii) a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization or business combination transaction of the Company with or into another corporation, entity or person, (iii) the consummation of a transaction, or series of related transactions, in which any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Company’s then outstanding capital stock, or (iv) a Change in Control (each, a “Corporate Transaction”), each outstanding Award (vested or unvested) will be treated as the Administrator determines, which determination may be made without the consent of any Participant and need not treat all outstanding Awards (or portion thereof) in an identical manner. Such determination, without the consent of any Participant, may provide (without limitation) for one or more of the following in the event of a Corporate Transaction: (A) the continuation of such outstanding Awards by the Company (if the Company is the surviving corporation); (B) the assumption of such outstanding Awards by the surviving corporation or its parent; (C) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of new options or other equity awards for such Awards; (D) the cancellation of such Awards in exchange for a payment to the Participants equal to the excess of (1) the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Awards as of the closing date of such Corporate Transaction over (2) the exercise price or purchase price paid or to be paid (if any) for the Shares subject to the Awards; provided further, that at the discretion of the Administrator, such payment may be subject to the same conditions that apply to the consideration that will be paid to holders of Shares in connection with the transaction; provided, however, that any payout in connection with a terminated award shall comply with Section 409A of the Code to the extent necessary to avoid taxation thereunder; (E) the full or partial acceleration of exercisability or vesting and accelerated expiration of an outstanding Award and lapse of the Company’s right to repurchase or re-acquire Shares acquired under an Award or lapse of forfeiture rights with respect to Shares acquired under an Award; (F) the opportunity for Participants to exercise their Options prior to the occurrence of the Corporate Transaction and the termination (for no consideration) upon the consummation of such Corporate Transaction of any Options not exercised prior thereto; or (G) the cancellation of outstanding Awards in exchange for no consideration.

(d)     Change in Control.    An Award may be subject to additional acceleration of vesting and exercisability upon or after a Change in Control as may be provided in the Award Agreement for such Award or as may be provided in any other written agreement between the Company or any Affiliate and the Participant, but in the absence of such provision, no such acceleration will occur.

Annex C-13

16.     Tax.

(a)     Withholding Requirements.    Prior to the delivery of any Shares or cash pursuant to an Award (or exercise thereof) or prior to any time the Award or Shares are subject to taxation or other Tax-Related Items, the Company and/or the Participant’s employer will have the power and the right to deduct or withhold, or require a Participant to remit to the Company, an amount sufficient to satisfy any Tax-Related Items or other items that are required to be withheld or deducted or otherwise applicable with respect to such Award.

(b)     Withholding Arrangements.    The Administrator, in its sole discretion and pursuant to such procedures as it may specify from time to time, may permit a Participant to satisfy such withholding or deduction obligations or any other Tax-Related Items, in whole or in part by (without limitation) (a) paying cash, (b) electing to have the Company withhold otherwise deliverable cash or Shares, or (c) delivering to the Company already-owned Shares; provided that, unless specifically permitted by the Company, any proceeds derived from a cashless exercise must be an approved broker-assisted cashless exercise or the cash or Shares withheld or delivered must be limited to avoid financial accounting charges under applicable accounting guidance or Shares must have been previously held for the minimum duration required to avoid financial accounting charges under applicable accounting guidance. The Fair Market Value of the Shares to be withheld or delivered will be determined based on such methodology that the Company deems to be reasonable and in accordance with Applicable Laws.

(c)     Compliance With Section 409A of the Code.    Awards will be designed and operated in such a manner that they are either exempt from the application of, or comply with, the requirements of Section 409A of the Code such that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not be subject to the additional tax or interest applicable under Section 409A of the Code. The Plan and each Award Agreement under the Plan is intended to meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or an exemption therefrom) and will be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent, except as otherwise determined in the sole discretion of the Administrator. To the extent that an Award or payment, or the settlement or deferral thereof, is subject to Section 409A of the Code the Award will be granted, paid, settled or deferred in a manner that will meet the requirements of Section 409A of the Code (or an exemption therefrom), such that the grant, payment, settlement or deferral will not be subject to the additional tax or interest applicable under Section 409A of the Code. In no event will the Company be responsible for or reimburse a Participant for any taxes or other penalties incurred as a result of applicable of Section 409A of the Code.

17.     No Effect on Employment or Service.    Neither the Plan nor any Award will confer upon a Participant any right with respect to continuing the Participant’s relationship as a Service Provider with the Company or any Affiliate, nor will they interfere in any way with the Participant’s right or the Company’s or any Affiliate’s right to terminate such relationship at any time, with or without cause, to the extent permitted by Applicable Laws.

18.     Date of Grant.    The date of grant of an Award will be, for all purposes, the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award, or such other later date as is determined by the Administrator. Notice of the determination will be provided to each Participant within a reasonable time after the date of such grant.

19.     Corporate Records Control.    In the event that the corporate records (e.g., Board consents, resolutions or minutes) documenting the corporate action constituting the grant contain terms (e.g., exercise price, vesting schedule or number of Shares) that are inconsistent with those in the Award Agreement or related grant documents as a result of a clerical error in the papering of the Award Agreement or related grant documents, the corporate records will control and the Participant will have no legally binding right to the incorrect term in the Award Agreement or related grant documents.

20.     Clawback/Recovery.    The Administrator may specify in an Award Agreement that the Participant’s rights, payments, and/or benefits with respect to an Award will be subject to reduction, cancellation, forfeiture, and/or recoupment upon the occurrence of certain specified events, in addition to any applicable vesting, performance or other conditions and restrictions of an Award. Notwithstanding any provisions to the contrary under this Plan, an Award granted under the Plan shall be subject to the Company’s clawback policy as may be established and/or amended from time to time. The Administrator may require a Participant to forfeit or return to and/or reimburse the Company for all or a portion of the Award and/or Shares issued under the Award, any amounts paid under the Award, and any payments or proceeds paid or provided upon disposition of the Shares issued under the Award, pursuant to the terms of such Company policy or as necessary or appropriate to comply with Applicable Laws.

Annex C-14

21.     Term of Plan.    Subject to Section 25 of the Plan, the Plan will become effective as of the Effective Date. The Plan will continue in effect for a term of ten (10) years measured from the earlier of the date the Board approves this Plan or the approval of this Plan by the Company’s stockholders, unless terminated earlier under Section 22 of the Plan.

22.     Amendment and Termination of the Plan.

(a)     Amendment and Termination.    The Administrator may at any time amend, alter, suspend or terminate the Plan.

(b)     Stockholder Approval.    The Company will obtain stockholder approval of any Plan amendment to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws.

(c)     Effect of Amendment or Termination.    No amendment, alteration, suspension or termination of the Plan will materially impair the rights of any Participant, unless mutually agreed otherwise between the Participant and the Administrator, which agreement must be in writing and signed by the Participant and the Company. Termination of the Plan will not affect the Administrator’s ability to exercise the powers granted to it hereunder with respect to Awards granted under the Plan prior to the date of such termination.

23.     Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares.

(a)     Legal Compliance.    Shares will not be issued pursuant to the exercise or vesting (as applicable) of an Award unless the exercise or vesting of such Award and the issuance and delivery of such Shares will comply with Applicable Laws and will be further subject to the approval of counsel for the Company with respect to such compliance.

(b)     Investment Representations.    As a condition to the exercise of an Award, the Company may require the person exercising such Award to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is required.

24.     Inability to Obtain Authority.    The inability of the Company to obtain authority from any regulatory body having jurisdiction, which authority is deemed by the Company’s counsel to be necessary to the lawful issuance and sale of any Shares hereunder, will relieve the Company of any liability in respect of the failure to issue or sell such Shares as to which such requisite authority will not have been obtained.

25.     Stockholder Approval.    The Plan will be subject to approval by the stockholders of the Company within twelve (12) months after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board. Such stockholder approval will be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws.

26.     Governing Law.    The Plan and all Awards hereunder shall be construed in accordance with and governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, but without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

2020 EMPLOYEE STOCK PURCHASE PLAN

1.     General; Purpose.

(a)     Purpose. The Plan provides a means by which Eligible Employees and/or Eligible Service Providers of either the Company or a Designated Company may be given an opportunity to purchase shares of Common Stock. The Plan permits the Company to grant a series of Purchase Rights to Eligible Employees and/or Eligible Service Providers. The Company, by means of the Plan, seeks to retain and assist its Related Corporations or Affiliates in retaining the services of such Eligible Employees and Eligible Service Providers, to secure and retain the services of new Eligible Employees and Eligible Service Providers and to provide incentives for such persons to exert maximum efforts for the success of the Company and its Related Corporations and Affiliates.

(b)     Qualified and Non-Qualified Offerings Permitted. The Plan includes two components: a 423 Component and a Non-423 Component. The Company intends (but makes no undertaking or representation to maintain) the 423 Component to qualify as an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. The provisions of the 423 Component, accordingly, will be construed in a manner that is consistent with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code, including without limitation, to extend and limit Plan participation in a uniform and non-discriminating basis. In addition, this Plan authorizes grants of Purchase Rights under the Non-423 Component that do not meet the requirements of an Employee Stock Purchase Plan. Except as otherwise provided in the Plan or determined by the Board, the Non-423 Component will operate and be administered in the same manner as the 423 Component. In addition, the Company may make separate Offerings which vary in terms (provided that such terms are not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan or the requirements of an Employee Stock Purchase Plan, except in each case with respect to a Non-423 Component), and the Company will designate which Designated Company is participating in each separate Offering and if any Eligible Service Providers will be eligible to participate in a separate Offering. Eligible Employees will be able to participate in the 423 Component or Non-423 Component of the Plan. Eligible Service Providers will only be able to participate in the Non-423 Component of the Plan.

2.     Administration.

(a)     The Board will administer the Plan unless and until the Board delegates administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees, as provided in Section 2(c).

(b)     The Board will have the power, subject to, and within the limitations of, the express provisions of the Plan:

(i)     To determine how and when Purchase Rights will be granted and the provisions of each Offering (which need not be identical).

(ii)     To designate from time to time which Related Corporations will be eligible to participate in the Plan as Designated 423 Corporations or as Designated Non-423 Corporations, which Affiliates will be eligible to participate in the Plan as Designated Non-423 Corporations, and which Designated Companies will participate in each separate Offering (to the extent that the Company makes separate Offerings).

(iii)     To designate from time to time which persons will be eligible to participate in the Non-423 Component of the Plan as Eligible Service Providers and which Eligible Service Providers will participate in each separate Offering (to the extent that the Company makes separate Offerings).

(iv)     To construe and interpret the Plan and Purchase Rights, and to establish, amend and revoke rules and regulations for its administration. The Board, in the exercise of this power, may correct any defect, omission or inconsistency in the Plan, in a manner and to the extent it deems necessary or expedient to make the Plan fully effective.

(v)     To settle all controversies regarding the Plan and Purchase Rights granted under the Plan.

(vi)     To suspend or terminate the Plan at any time as provided in Section 12.

Annex D-1

Table of Contents

(vii)     To amend the Plan at any time as provided in Section 12.

(viii)     Generally, to exercise such powers and to perform such acts as it deems necessary or expedient to promote the best interests of the Company, its Related Corporations, and Affiliates and to carry out the intent that the 423 Component be treated as an Employee Stock Purchase Plan.

(ix)     To adopt such rules, procedures and sub-plans relating to the operation and administration of the Plan as are necessary or appropriate under Applicable Laws to permit or facilitate participation in the Plan by Employees or Eligible Service Providers who are foreign nationals or employed or providing services or located or otherwise subject to the laws of a jurisdiction outside the United States. Without limiting the generality of, but consistent with, the foregoing, the Board specifically is authorized to adopt rules, procedures, and sub-plans, which, for purposes of the Non-423 Component, may be beyond the scope of Section 423 of the Code, regarding, without limitation, eligibility to participate in the Plan, handling and making of Contributions, establishment of bank or trust accounts to hold Contributions, payment of interest, conversion of local currency, obligations to pay payroll tax, determination of beneficiary designation requirements, withholding procedures and handling of share issuances, any of which may vary according to Applicable Laws.

(c)     The Board may delegate some or all of the administration of the Plan to a Committee or Committees. If administration is delegated to a Committee, the Committee will have, in connection with the administration of the Plan, the powers theretofore possessed by the Board that have been delegated to the Committee, including the power to delegate to a subcommittee any of the administrative powers the Committee is authorized to exercise (and references in this Plan to the Board will thereafter be to the Committee or subcommittee), subject, however, to such resolutions, not inconsistent with the provisions of the Plan, as may be adopted from time to time by the Board and Applicable Laws. The Board may retain the authority to concurrently administer the Plan with the Committee and may, at any time, revest in the Board some or all of the powers previously delegated. Whether or not the Board has delegated administration of the Plan to a Committee, the Board will have the final power to determine all questions of policy and expediency that may arise in the administration of the Plan.

(d)     All determinations, interpretations and constructions made by the Board in good faith will not be subject to review by any person and will be final, binding and conclusive on all persons.

3.     Shares of Common Stock Subject to the Plan.

(a)     Number of Shares Available; Automatic Increases. Subject to the provisions of Section 11(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, the maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be issued under the Plan will not exceed [•]1 shares of Common Stock, plus the number of shares of Common Stock that are automatically added on March 1, 2021 and thereafter, on the first day of each Fiscal Year beginning with the 2022 Fiscal Year and ending on (and including) the first day of the 2030 Fiscal Year, in each case, in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) half a percent (0.5%) of the total number of shares of Common Stock outstanding on the last day of the calendar month prior to the date of such automatic increase, and (ii) [•] shares of Common Stock.2 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Board may act prior to the first day of any fiscal year to provide that there will be no increase in the share reserve for such fiscal year or that the increase in the share reserve for such fiscal year will be a lesser number of shares of Common Stock than would otherwise occur pursuant to the preceding sentence.

(b)     Share Recycling. If any Purchase Right granted under the Plan terminates without having been exercised in full, the shares of Common Stock not purchased under such Purchase Right will again become available for issuance under the Plan.

(c)     Source of Shares. The stock purchasable under the Plan will be shares of authorized but unissued or reacquired Common Stock, including shares repurchased by the Company on the open market.

____________

1         Number will be equal to 2% of the aggregate number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing (after giving effect to the SRAC stockholder redemptions, if any).

2         Number will be equal to 2% of the aggregate number of shares of Combined Company Class A common stock issued and outstanding immediately after the Closing (after giving effect to the SRAC stockholder redemptions, if any).

Annex D-2

4.     Grant of Purchase Rights; Offering.

(a)     Offerings. The Board may from time to time grant or provide for the grant of Purchase Rights to Eligible Employees and/or Eligible Service Providers under an Offering (consisting of one or more Purchase Periods) on an Offering Date or Offering Dates selected by the Board. Each Offering will be in such form and will contain such terms and conditions as the Board will deem appropriate, and, with respect to the 423 Component, will comply with the requirement of Section 423(b)(5) of the Code that all Employees granted Purchase Rights will have the same rights and privileges. The terms and conditions of an Offering will be incorporated by reference into the Plan and treated as part of the Plan. The provisions of separate Offerings need not be identical, but each Offering will include (through incorporation of the provisions of this Plan by reference in the Offering Document or otherwise) the period during which the Offering will be effective, which period will not exceed 27 months beginning with the Offering Date, and the substance of the provisions contained in Sections 5 through 8, inclusive.

(b)     More than One Purchase Right. If a Participant has more than one Purchase Right outstanding under the Plan, unless he or she otherwise indicates in forms delivered to the Company: (i) each form will apply to all of his or her Purchase Rights under the Plan, and (ii) a Purchase Right with a lower exercise price (or an earlier-granted Purchase Right, if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices) will be exercised to the fullest possible extent before a Purchase Right with a higher exercise price (or a later-granted Purchase Right if different Purchase Rights have identical exercise prices) will be exercised.

(c)     Restart Provision Permitted. The Board will have the discretion to structure an Offering so that if the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the first Trading Day of a new Purchase Period within that Offering is less than or equal to the Fair Market Value of a share of Common Stock on the Offering Date for that Offering, then (i) that Offering will terminate immediately as of that first Trading Day, and (ii) the Participants in such terminated Offering will be automatically enrolled in a new Offering beginning on the first Trading Day of such new Offering Period and Purchase Period.

5.     Eligibility.

(a)     General. Purchase Rights may be granted only to Employees of the Company or, as the Board may designate in accordance with Section 2(b), to Employees of a Related Corporation or, solely with respect to the Non-423 Component, Employees of an Affiliate or Eligible Service Providers.

(b)     Grant of Purchase Rights in Ongoing Offering. The Board may provide that Employees will not be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights under the Plan if, on the Offering Date, the Employee (i) has not completed at least two (2) years of service since the Employee’s last hire date (or such lesser period of time as may be determined by the Board in its discretion), (ii) customarily works not more than twenty (20) hours per week (or such lesser period of time as may be determined by the Board in its discretion), (iii) customarily works not more than five (5) months per calendar year (or such lesser period of time as may be determined by the Board in its discretion), (iv) is a highly compensated employee within the meaning of Section 423(b)(4)(D) of the Code, or (v) has not satisfied such other criteria as the Board may determine consistent with Section 423 of the Code. Unless otherwise determined by the Board for any Offering Period, an Employee will not be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights unless, on the Offering Date, the Employee customarily works more than twenty (20) hours per week and more than five (5) months per calendar year.

(c)     5% Stockholders Excluded. No Employee will be eligible for the grant of any Purchase Rights if, immediately after any such Purchase Rights are granted, such Employee owns stock possessing five (5) percent or more of the total combined voting power or value of all classes of stock of the Company or of any Related Corporation. For purposes of this Section 5(c), the rules of Section 424(d) of the Code will apply in determining the stock ownership of any Employee, and stock which such Employee may purchase under all outstanding Purchase Rights and options will be treated as stock owned by such Employee.

(d)     $25,000 Limit. As specified by Section 423(b)(8) of the Code, an Eligible Employee may be granted Purchase Rights only if such Purchase Rights, together with any other rights granted under all Employee Stock Purchase Plans of the Company and any Related Corporations, do not permit such Eligible Employee’s rights to purchase stock of the Company or any Related Corporation to accrue at a rate which, when aggregated, exceeds U.S. $25,000 of Fair Market Value of such stock (determined at the time such rights are granted, and which, with respect to the Plan, will be determined as of their respective Offering Dates) for each calendar year in which such rights are outstanding at any time.

Annex D-3

Table of Contents

(e)     Service Requirement. An Eligible Service Provider will not be eligible to be granted Purchase Rights unless the Eligible Service Provider is providing bonafide services to the Company or a Designated Company on the applicable Offering Date.

(f)     Non-423 Component Offerings. Notwithstanding anything set forth herein except for Section 5(d) above, the Board may establish additional eligibility requirements, or fewer eligibility requirements, for Employees and/or Eligible Service Providers with respect to Offerings made under the Non-423 Component even if such requirements are not consistent with Section 423 of the Code.

6.     Purchase Rights; Purchase Price.

(a)     Grant and Maximum Contribution Rate. On each Offering Date, each Eligible Employee or Eligible Service Provider, pursuant to an Offering made under the Plan, will be granted a Purchase Right to purchase up to that number of shares of Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) purchasable either with a percentage or with a maximum dollar amount, as designated by the Board; provided however, that in the case of Eligible Employees, such percentage or maximum dollar amount will in either case not exceed 15% of such Employee’s earnings (as defined by the Board in each Offering) during the period that begins on the Offering Date (or such later date as the Board determines for a particular Offering) and ends on the date stated in the Offering, which date will be no later than the end of the Offering, unless otherwise provided for in an Offering.

(b)     Purchase Dates. The Board will establish one or more Purchase Dates during an Offering on which Purchase Rights granted for that Offering will be exercised and shares of Common Stock will be purchased in accordance with such Offering.

(c)     Other Purchase Limitations. In connection with each Offering made under the Plan, the Board may specify (i) a maximum number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by any Participant on any Purchase Date during such Offering, (ii) a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants pursuant to such Offering, and (iii) a maximum aggregate number of shares of Common Stock that may be purchased by all Participants on any Purchase Date under the Offering. If the aggregate purchase of shares of Common Stock issuable on exercise of Purchase Rights granted under the Offering would exceed any such maximum aggregate number, then, in the absence of any Board action otherwise, a pro rata (based on each Participant’s accumulated Contributions) allocation of the shares of Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) available will be made in as nearly a uniform manner as will be practicable and equitable.

(d)     Purchase Price. The purchase price of shares of Common Stock acquired pursuant to Purchase Rights will be not less than the lesser of:

(i)     an amount equal to 85% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the Offering Date; or

(ii)     an amount equal to 85% of the Fair Market Value of the shares of Common Stock on the applicable Purchase Date.

7.     Participation; Withdrawal; Termination.

(a)     Enrollment. An Eligible Employee may elect to authorize payroll deductions as the means of making Contributions by completing and delivering to the Company, within the time specified by the Company, an enrollment form provided by the Company or any third party designated by the Company (each, a “Company Designee”). The enrollment form will specify the amount of Contributions not to exceed the maximum amount specified by the Board. Each Participant’s Contributions will be credited to a bookkeeping account for such Participant under the Plan and will be deposited with the general funds of the Company except where Applicable Laws require that Contributions be deposited with a Company Designee or otherwise be segregated.

(b)     Contributions. If permitted in the Offering, a Participant may begin Contributions with the first payroll or payment date occurring on or after the Offering Date (or, in the case of a payroll date or payment date that occurs after the end of the prior Offering but before the Offering Date of the next new Offering, Contributions from such payroll or payment will be included in the new Offering) or on such other date as set forth in the Offering. If permitted in the Offering, a Participant may thereafter reduce (including to zero) or increase his or her Contributions.

Annex D-4

Table of Contents

If required under Applicable Laws or if specifically provided in the Offering, in addition to or instead of making Contributions by payroll deductions, a Participant may make Contributions through a payment by cash, check, or wire transfer prior to a Purchase Date, in a manner directed by the Company or a Company Designee.

(c)     Withdrawals. During an Offering, a Participant may cease making Contributions and withdraw from the Offering by delivering to the Company or a Company Designee a withdrawal form provided by the Company. The Company may impose a deadline before a Purchase Date for withdrawing. On such withdrawal, such Participant’s Purchase Right in that Offering will immediately terminate and the Company will distribute as soon as practicable to such Participant all of his or her accumulated but unused Contributions without interest and such Participant’s Purchase Right in that Offering will then terminate. A Participant’s withdrawal from that Offering will have no effect on his or her eligibility to participate in any other Offerings under the Plan, but such Participant will be required to deliver a new enrollment form to participate in subsequent Offerings.

(d)     Termination of Eligibility. Purchase Rights granted pursuant to any Offering under the Plan will terminate immediately if the Participant either (i) is no longer an Eligible Employee or Eligible Service Provider for any reason or for no reason, or (ii) is otherwise no longer eligible to participate. The Company shall have the exclusive discretion to determine when Participant is no longer actively providing services and the date of the termination of employment or service for purposes of the Plan. As soon as practicable, the Company will distribute to such individual all of his or her accumulated but unused Contributions without interest.

(e)     Leave of Absence. For purposes of this Section 7, an Employee will not be deemed to have terminated employment or failed to remain in the continuous employ of the Company or of a Designated Company in the case of sick leave, military leave, or any other leave of absence approved by the Company; provided that such leave is for a period of not more than three (3) months or reemployment upon the expiration of such leave is guaranteed by contract or statute. The Company will have sole discretion to determine whether a Participant has terminated employment and the effective date on which the Participant terminated employment, regardless of any notice period or garden leave required under local law.

(f)     Employment Transfers. Unless otherwise determined by the Board, a Participant whose employment transfers or whose employment terminates with an immediate rehire (with no break in service) by or between the Company and a Designated Company or between Designated Companies will not be treated as having terminated employment for purposes of participating in the Plan or an Offering; however, if a Participant transfers from an Offering under the 423 Component to an Offering under the Non-423 Component, the exercise of the Participant’s Purchase Right will be qualified under the 423 Component only to the extent such exercise complies with Section 423 of the Code. If a Participant transfers from an Offering under the Non-423 Component to an Offering under the 423 Component, the exercise of the Purchase Right will remain non-qualified under the Non-423 Component. In the event that a Participant’s Purchase Right is terminated under the Plan, the Company will distribute as soon as practicable to such individual all of his or her accumulated but unused Contributions.

(g)     No Transfers of Purchase Rights. During a Participant’s lifetime, Purchase Rights will be exercisable only by such Participant. Purchase Rights are not transferable by a Participant, except by will, by the laws of descent and distribution, or, if permitted by the Company, by a beneficiary designation as described in Section 10.

(h)     No Interest. Unless otherwise specified in the Offering or required by Applicable Law, the Company will have no obligation to pay interest on Contributions.

8.     Exercise of Purchase Rights.

(a)     On each Purchase Date, each Participant’s accumulated Contributions will be applied to the purchase of shares of Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share), up to the maximum number of shares of Common Stock permitted by the Plan and the applicable Offering, at the purchase price specified in the Offering. No fractional shares will be issued unless specifically provided for in the Offering.

(b)     Unless otherwise provided in the Offering, if any amount of accumulated Contributions remains in a Participant’s account after the purchase of shares of Common Stock on the final Purchase Date in an Offering, then such remaining amount will roll over to the next Offering.

Annex D-5

Table of Contents

(c)     No Purchase Rights may be exercised to any extent unless the shares of Common Stock to be issued on such exercise under the Plan are covered by an effective registration statement pursuant to the Securities Act and the Plan is in material compliance with all Applicable Laws. If on a Purchase Date the shares of Common Stock are not so registered or the Plan is not in such compliance, no Purchase Rights will be exercised on such Purchase Date, and the Purchase Date will be delayed until the shares of Common Stock are subject to such an effective registration statement and the Plan is in material compliance, except that the Purchase Date will in no event be more than three (3) months from the original Purchase Date. If, on the Purchase Date, as delayed to the maximum extent permissible, the shares of Common Stock are not registered and the Plan is not in material compliance with all Applicable Laws, as determined by the Company in its sole discretion, no Purchase Rights will be exercised and all accumulated but unused Contributions will be distributed as soon as practicable to the Participants without interest.

9.     Covenants of the Company. The Company will seek to obtain from each U.S. federal or state, foreign or other regulatory commission or agency having jurisdiction over the Plan such authority as may be required to grant Purchase Rights and issue and sell shares of Common Stock thereunder unless the Company determines, in its sole discretion, that doing so would cause the Company to incur costs that are unreasonable. If, after commercially reasonable efforts, the Company is unable to obtain the authority that counsel for the Company deems necessary for the grant of Purchase Rights or the lawful issuance and sale of Common Stock under the Plan, and at a commercially reasonable cost, the Company will be relieved from any liability for failure to grant Purchase Rights or to issue and sell Common Stock on exercise of such Purchase Rights.

10.     Designation of Beneficiary.

(a)     The Company may, but is not obligated to, permit a Participant to submit a form designating a beneficiary who will receive any shares of Common Stock or Contributions from the Participant’s account under the Plan if the Participant dies before such shares or Contributions are delivered to the Participant. The Company may, but is not obligated to, permit the Participant to change such designation of beneficiary. Any such designation or change must be on a form approved by the Company or as approved by the Company for use by a Company Designee.

(b)     If a Participant dies, in the absence of a valid beneficiary designation, the Company will deliver any shares of Common Stock and Contributions to the executor or administrator of the estate of the Participant. If no executor or administrator has been appointed (to the knowledge of the Company), the Company, in its sole discretion, may deliver such shares of Common Stock and Contributions, without interest, to the Participant’s spouse, dependents or relatives, or if no spouse, dependent or relative is known to the Company, then to such other person as the Company may designate.

11.     Capitalization Adjustments; Dissolution or Liquidation; Corporate Transactions.

(a)     Capitalization Adjustment. In the event of a Capitalization Adjustment, the Board will appropriately and proportionately adjust: (i) the class(es) and maximum number of securities subject to the Plan pursuant to Section 3(a), (ii) the class(es) and maximum number of securities by which the share reserve is to increase automatically each year pursuant to Section 3(a), (iii) the class(es) and number of securities subject to, and the purchase price applicable to outstanding Offerings and Purchase Rights, and (iv) the class(es) and number of securities that are the subject of the purchase limits under each ongoing Offering. The Board will make these adjustments, and its determination will be final, binding, and conclusive.

(b)     Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of a dissolution or liquidation of the Company, the Board will shorten any Offering then in progress by setting a New Purchase Date prior to the consummation of such proposed dissolution or liquidation. The Board will notify each Participant in writing, prior to the New Purchase Date that the Purchase Date for the Participant’s Purchase Rights has been changed to the New Purchase Date and that such Purchase Rights will be automatically exercised on the New Purchase Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering as provided in Section 7.

(c)     Corporate Transaction. In the event of a Corporate Transaction, then: (i) any surviving corporation or acquiring corporation (or the surviving or acquiring corporation’s parent company) may assume or continue outstanding Purchase Rights or may substitute similar rights (including a right to acquire the same consideration paid to the stockholders in the Corporate Transaction) for outstanding Purchase Rights, or (ii) if any surviving or acquiring corporation (or its parent company) does not assume or continue such Purchase Rights or does not substitute similar rights for such Purchase Rights, then the Participants’ accumulated Contributions will be used to purchase shares of

Annex D-6

Table of Contents

Common Stock (rounded down to the nearest whole share) prior to the Corporate Transaction under the outstanding Purchase Rights (with such actual date to be determined by the Board in its sole discretion), and the Purchase Rights will terminate immediately after such purchase. The Board will notify each Participant in writing, prior to the New Purchase Date that the Purchase Date for the Participant’s Purchase Rights has been changed to the New Purchase Date and that such Purchase Rights will be automatically exercised on the New Purchase Date, unless prior to such date the Participant has withdrawn from the Offering as provided in Section 7.

(d)     Spin-Off. In the event of a spin-off or similar transaction involving the Company, the Board may take actions deemed necessary or appropriate in connection with an ongoing Offering and subject to compliance with Applicable Laws (including the assumption of Purchase Rights under an ongoing Offering by the spun-off company, or shortening an Offering and scheduling a new Purchase Date prior to the closing of such transaction). In the absence of any such action by the Board, a Participant in an ongoing Offering whose employer ceases to qualify as a Related Corporation as of the closing of a spin-off or similar transaction will be treated in the same manner as if the Participant had terminated employment (as provided in Section 7(d)).

12.     Amendment, Termination or Suspension of the Plan.

(a)     Plan Amendment. The Board may amend the Plan at any time in any respect the Board deems necessary or advisable. However, except as provided in Section 11(a) relating to Capitalization Adjustments, stockholder approval will be required for any amendment of the Plan for which stockholder approval is required by Applicable Laws, including any amendment that either (i) increases the number of shares of Common Stock available for issuance under the Plan, (ii) expands the class of individuals eligible to become Participants and receive Purchase Rights, (iii) materially increases the benefits accruing to Participants under the Plan or reduces the price at which shares of Common Stock may be purchased under the Plan, (iv) extends the term of the Plan, or (v) expands the types of awards available for issuance under the Plan, but in each of (i) through (v) above only to the extent stockholder approval is required by Applicable Laws.

(b)     Suspension or Termination. The Board may suspend or terminate the Plan at any time. No Purchase Rights may be granted under the Plan while the Plan is suspended or after it is terminated.

(c)     No Impairment of Rights. Any benefits, privileges, entitlements, and obligations under any outstanding Purchase Rights granted before an amendment, suspension, or termination of the Plan will not be materially impaired by any such amendment, suspension, or termination except (i) with the consent of the person to whom such Purchase Rights were granted, (ii) as necessary to comply with any laws, listing requirements, or governmental regulations (including, without limitation, the provisions of Section 423 of the Code and the regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder relating to Employee Stock Purchase Plans) including without limitation any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued or amended after the date the Plan is adopted by the Board, or (iii) as necessary to obtain or maintain any special tax, listing, or regulatory treatment. To be clear, the Board may amend outstanding Purchase Rights without a Participant’s consent if such amendment is necessary to ensure that the Purchase Right or the 423 Component complies with the requirements of Section 423 of the Code.

(d)     Corrections and Administrative Procedures. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan to the contrary, the Board will be entitled to: (i) permit Contributions in excess of the amount designated by a Participant in order to adjust for mistakes in the Company’s processing of properly completed Contribution elections; (ii) establish reasonable waiting and adjustment periods and/or accounting and crediting procedures to ensure that amounts applied toward the purchase of Common Stock for each Participant properly correspond with amounts withheld from the Participant’s Contributions; (iii) amend any outstanding Purchase Rights or clarify any ambiguities regarding the terms of any Offering to enable the Purchase Rights to qualify under and/or comply with Section 423 of the Code; and (iv) establish other limitations or procedures as the Board determines in its sole discretion advisable that are consistent with the Plan. The actions of the Board pursuant to this paragraph will not be considered to alter or impair any Purchase Rights granted under an Offering as they are part of the initial terms of each Offering and the Purchase Rights granted under each Offering.

13.     Tax Matters.

(a)     Section 409A of the Code. Purchase Rights granted under the 423 Component are intended to be exempt from the application of Section 409A of the Code under U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(5)(ii). Purchase Rights granted under the Non-423 Component to U.S. taxpayers are intended to be exempt from the application

Annex D-7

Table of Contents

of Section 409A of the Code under the short-term deferral exception and any ambiguities will be construed and interpreted in accordance with such intent. Subject to Section 13(b) below, Purchase Rights granted to U.S. taxpayers under the Non-423 Component will be subject to such terms and conditions that will permit such Purchase Rights to satisfy the requirements of the short-term deferral exception available under Section 409A of the Code, including the requirement that the shares subject to a Purchase Right be delivered within the short-term deferral period. Subject to Section 13(b) below, in the case of a Participant who would otherwise be subject to Section 409A of the Code, to the extent the Board determines that a Purchase Right or the exercise, payment, settlement, or deferral thereof is subject to Section 409A of the Code, the Purchase Right will be granted, exercised, paid, settled, or deferred in a manner that will comply with Section 409A of the Code, including U.S. Department of Treasury regulations and other interpretive guidance issued thereunder, including, without limitation, any such regulations or other guidance that may be issued after the adoption of the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company will have no liability to a Participant or any other party if the Purchase Right that is intended to be exempt from or compliant with Section 409A of the Code is not so exempt or compliant or for any action taken by the Board with respect thereto.

(b)     No Guarantee of Tax Treatment. Although the Company may endeavor to (i) qualify a Purchase Right for special tax treatment under the laws of the United States or jurisdictions outside of the United States, or (ii) avoid adverse tax treatment (e.g., under Section 409A of the Code), the Company makes no representation to that effect and expressly disavows any covenant to maintain special or to avoid unfavorable tax treatment, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Plan, including Section 13(a) above. The Company will be unconstrained in its corporate activities without regard to the potential negative tax impact on Participants under the Plan.

14.     Tax Withholding. The Participant will make adequate provision to satisfy the Tax-Related Items withholding obligations, if any, of the Company and/or the applicable Designated Company which arise with respect to Participant’s participation in the Plan or upon the disposition of the shares of the Common Stock. The Company and/or the Designated Company may, but will not be obligated to, withhold from the Participant’s compensation or any other payments due the Participant the amount necessary to meet such withholding obligations, withholding a sufficient whole number of shares of Common Stock issued following exercise having an aggregate value sufficient to pay the Tax-Related Items or withhold from the proceeds of the sale of shares of Common Stock, either through a voluntary sale or a mandatory sale arranged by the Company or any other method of withholding that the Company and/or the Designated Company deems appropriate. The Company and/or the Designated Company will have the right to take such other action as may be necessary in the opinion of the Company or a Designated Company to satisfy withholding and/or reporting obligations for such Tax-Related Items. The Company shall not be required to issue any shares of Common Stock under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.

15.     Effective Date of Plan. The Plan will become effective on the Effective Date. No Purchase Rights will be exercised unless and until the Plan has been approved by the stockholders of the Company, which approval must be within 12 months before or after the date the Plan is adopted (or, if required under Section 12(a) above, amended) by the Board.

16.     Miscellaneous Provisions.

(a)     Proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock pursuant to Purchase Rights will constitute general funds of the Company.

(b)     A Participant will not be deemed to be the holder of, or to have any of the rights of a holder with respect to, shares of Common Stock subject to Purchase Rights unless and until the Participant’s shares of Common Stock acquired on exercise of Purchase Rights are recorded in the books of the Company (or its transfer agent).

(c)     The Plan and Offering do not constitute an employment or service contract. Nothing in the Plan or in the Offering will in any way alter the at-will nature of a Participant’s employment, if applicable, or be deemed to create in any way whatsoever any obligation on the part of any Participant to continue his or her employment or service relationship with the Company, a Related Corporation, or an Affiliate, or on the part of the Company, a Related Corporation, or an Affiliate to continue the employment or service of a Participant.

(d)     The provisions of the Plan will be governed by the laws of the State of Delaware without resort to that state’s conflicts of laws rules. For purposes of litigating any dispute that may arise directly or indirectly from the Plan or any Offering, the parties hereby submit and consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the State of Delaware and agree that any such litigation shall be conducted only in the courts of Delaware or the federal courts of the United States located in Delaware and no other courts.

Annex D-8

Table of Contents

(e)     If any particular provision of the Plan is found to be invalid or otherwise unenforceable, such provision will not affect the other provisions of the Plan, but the Plan will be construed in all respects as if such invalid provision were omitted.

ATTACHMENT A

VESTING SCHEDULE

The shares subject to the Option will vest upon satisfaction of both the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement (as defined below) and the Service-Based Vesting Requirement (as defined below).

a.     Performance-Based Vesting Requirement.    For each of the 10 vesting tranches set forth in the Stock Price Milestone Table below, the performance-based vesting requirement (the “Performance-Based Vesting Requirement”) will only be deemed satisfied upon the Board certifying the achievement, as of any particular date, of both (i) the Stock Price Milestone (as defined below) set forth next to such tranche in the Stock Price Milestone Table below and (ii) the achievement of one of the Operational Milestones (as defined below) specified in the Operational Milestone Table below (such determination on any date, the “Board Certification”). Separate Board Certifications may occur on separate dates with respect to the achievement of a Stock Price Milestone and an Operational Milestone that are required for the vesting of any particular tranche. Once a Stock Price Milestone or an Operational Milestone has been achieved, it is forever deemed achieved (i.e., if total revenue, adjusted EBITDA or price per share (as measured by the below criteria) decline following the satisfaction of a Stock Price Milestone or an Operational Milestone, as applicable, such Stock Price Milestone or Operational Milestone will still be deemed satisfied).

Any Operational Milestone may only satisfy the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement of one tranche of shares subject to the Option, together with a corresponding Stock Price Milestone, provided that more than one Operational Milestone and more than one Stock Price Milestone may be deemed to be satisfied at any given time.2 3 For example, based on the amounts in the tables below if the Board certifies that the Company achieves $1.5 billion of Total Revenue and a stock price of $55 as measured pursuant to the methodology set forth below, the Operational Milestones of $250 million, $750 million and $1.5 billion of Total Revenue will be deemed to be achieved as of such date. However, only two Stock Price Milestones will have been achieved ($32.80 and $49.21) and, therefore, only tranches one and two will vest on such date. However, once the next Stock Price Milestone of $65.61 is achieved and such achievement is certified by the Board, the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for tranche number 3 shall vest because the Board had already certified that a third Operational Milestone had been achieved, but had not yet been used to satisfy a Stock Price Milestone. For the avoidance of doubt, the achievement of more than 10 of the 12 Operational Milestones will not result in any additional vesting or other compensation to the Participant under the Option.

Each tranche of the Option must be satisfied in ascending order starting with tranche number one. For example, based on the amounts in the tables below if the Board certifies that the Company achieves $250 million of Total Revenue and a stock price of $60 as measured pursuant to the methodology set forth below, the Operational Milestone of $250 million of Total Revenue will be deemed to be achieved as of such date, along with two Stock Price Milestones ($32.80 and $49.21). In such an event, because only one Operational Milestone has been met, the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement will be met for only one tranche, and it shall be tranche one and not tranche two since the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for each tranche must be satisfied in ascending order starting with tranche one. However, because the Stock Price Milestone for tranche two will already have been achieved, once the Board certifies that another unused Operational Milestone has been achieved, the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement will be satisfied for tranche two.

____________

2         Amounts in the Stock Price Milestone Table are subject to adjustment based on (i) the outstanding the aggregate number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock immediately following the Closing and (ii) the aggregate number of shares of SRAC Class A common stock underlying the Momentus stock options and warrants that are assumed in connection with the Business Combination immediately following the Closing (the “Applicable Shares”).

3         All examples will be adjusted in the final form of option agreement.

*        “Revenue” means total revenues as reported in the Company’s financial statements on Forms 10-Q or Form 10-K as filed with the SEC for the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters.

**      “Adjusted EBITDA” means net income (or earnings) attributable to the Company’s stockholders before (i) interest expense, (ii) (benefit) provision for income taxes, (iii) depreciation and amortization, and (iv) stock-based compensation, as each such item is reported in the Company’s financial statements on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K as filed with the SEC for the previous four consecutive fiscal quarters.

Upon the consummation of certain acquisitions or split-up, spin-off, or divestiture transactions, each then-unachieved Operational Milestone will be adjusted to offset the impact of such transactions to the extent they could be considered material to the achievement of such Operational Milestones.

In the event that, and as often as, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock is changed by reason of any dividend, subdivision, reclassification, recapitalization, split, combination, exchange or any similar event described in Section 15(a) of the Plan, then the applicable Stock Price Milestone and the number of shares subject to the Option, including with respect to each vesting tranche, and the exercise price per share of the Option will, in each case be equitably adjusted by the Board to reflect such change.

____________

4         Amounts in the Stock Price Milestone Table are subject to adjustment based on the Applicable Shares. The number of option shares and price are based on an assumed $1.512B market value at Closing (calculated as the Applicable Shares * $10/share) and an assumed Applicable Shares of 152.4M shares at Closing (subject to adjustment at Closing); market cap includes net cash.

Annex E-13

Table of Contents

b.     Service-Based Vesting Requirement.    Following satisfaction of the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for a tranche of the Option, 1/8th of the shares subject to such tranche will vest on each quarterly anniversary of the date on which the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement is deemed satisfied, subject to the Participant’s service with the Company through each vesting date (the “Service-Based Vesting Requirement”); provided that, subject to the vesting acceleration provisions below, the Service-Based Vesting Requirement will be deemed satisfied (x) no earlier than the fourth anniversary of the date of grant of the Option (the “Date of Grant”) and (y) no later than the ninth anniversary of the Date of Grant. For example, if the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement for a tranche of the Option is deemed satisfied on the third anniversary of the Date of Grant, then the Service-Based Vesting Requirement for such tranche will be deemed satisfied as to 50% of the shares subject to such tranche on the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant and the remaining 50% of the shares subject to such tranche will vest in four quarterly installments following the fourth anniversary of the Date of Grant.

c.     Acceleration.

i.     Performance-Based Vesting Requirement Acceleration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Change in Control, all of the Operational Milestones will be deemed satisfied as of immediately prior to the closing of the Change in Control and, therefore, thereafter, only the satisfaction of the Stock Price Milestone will be necessary for the related tranche to vest; provided further, that each Stock Price Milestone will be deemed satisfied if the price per share of such Stock Price Milestone is less than or equal to the price per share of Common Stock in such Change in Control, subject to the Release Requirement (as defined in the Notice of Grant). After giving effect to the preceding sentence, any portion of the Option that is unvested as of a Change in Control shall be forfeited for no consideration. In addition, notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Participant is terminated by Company without Cause or the Participant resigns for Good Reason (as defined in the Notice of Grant), 40% of the shares subject to the Option for which the Performance-Based Vesting Requirement has not yet been satisfied, as determined on a tranche-by-tranche basis for each unvested tranche, will remain outstanding and eligible to vest (including upon a Change in Control as described above) until the earliest of (x) five years from such termination without Cause or resignation for Good Reason, (y) the original 10-year term of the Option or (z) such earlier date as may be provided or permitted by the Plan, subject in each case, to the Release Requirement.

ii.     Service-Based Vesting Requirement Acceleration. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event (i) the Participant is terminated by Company without Cause, (ii) the Participant resigns for Good Reason or (iii) a Change in Control, the Service-Based Vesting Requirement will be deemed immediately satisfied, subject in each case to the Release Requirement.

EXECUTION

October 7, 2020

Stable Road Acquisition Corp.

1345 Abbott Kinney Boulevard

Venice, California 90291

RE: Surrender and Potential Forfeiture of Parent Class B Common Stock

Reference is made to that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”), to be dated as of the date hereof, by and among Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Stable Road Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), Project Marvel First Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent, and Project Marvel Second Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of Parent. This letter agreement (this “Letter Agreement”) is being entered into and delivered by Parent, SRC-NI Holdings, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”), and SRAC PIPE Partners LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“SRAC Partners”) in connection with the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement.

In consideration of the foregoing and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, Parent and Sponsor hereby agree as follows:

1.      Sponsor represents and warrants that (i) it holds 4,136,029 of the issued and outstanding shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of Parent (the “Parent Class B Common Stock”) and (ii) SRAC Partners holds 176,471 of the issued and outstanding shares of Parent Class B Common Stock, as of the date of this Letter Agreement. As of the date hereof, there are 4,312,500 shares of Parent Class B Common Stock issued and outstanding.

2.      Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.3 of the Merger Agreement, immediately prior to and conditioned upon the consummation of the Closing, Sponsor shall surrender 1,437,500 shares of Parent Class B Common Stock (the “Sponsor Contingent Closing Shares”) if, and only if, (i) the amount in the Trust Account (for the avoidance of doubt, prior to giving effect to the Parent Stockholder Redemptions and the payment of any Parent Transaction Costs), minus (ii) the aggregate amount of cash proceeds that will be required to satisfy the Parent Stockholder Redemptions (the result of clauses (i) minus (ii), the “Remaining Trust Amount”), is less than $100,000,000, in which event the Sponsor Contingent Closing Shares will be cancelled by Parent for no consideration. For the avoidance of doubt, if the Remaining Trust Amount is equal to or greater than $100,000,000, then the Sponsor Contingent Closing Shares shall not be subject to forfeiture, cancellation or vesting.

3.      Subject to the satisfaction or waiver of each of the conditions to Closing set forth in Sections 8.1 and 8.3 of the Merger Agreement, effective immediately prior to and conditioned upon the consummation of the Closing, Sponsor and SRAC Partners each hereby waive any and all rights they have or will have under Section 4.3(b)(ii) of Parent’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation to receive, with respect to each share of Parent Class B Common Stock held by Sponsor or SRAC Partners, more than one (1) share of Parent Class A Common Stock upon automatic conversion of such shares of Parent Class B Common Stock in accordance with Parent’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation in connection with the consummation of the Transactions. Without limitation of the foregoing, upon the consummation of the Transactions, Sponsor and SRAC Partners each hereby acknowledge and agree that pursuant to Section 4.3(b)(i) of Parent’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, each share of Parent Class B Common Stock held by either Sponsor or SRAC Partners shall automatically convert into one (1) share of Parent Class A Common Stock.

4.      Upon and subject to the Closing, 1,437,500 shares of Parent Class A Common Stock owned by Sponsor (the “Sponsor Earnout Shares”) shall become subject to potential forfeiture upon the terms set forth in Article III of the Merger Agreement, such that such Sponsor Earnout Shares shall be forfeited if, and only if, the applicable vesting condition(s) set forth in Article III of the Merger Agreement are not satisfied

Annex F-1

Table of Contents

“A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR OR RELEASING PARTY DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS OR HER FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE AND THAT, IF KNOWN BY HIM OR HER, WOULD HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS OR HER SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR OR RELEASED PARTY.”

The Company Stockholder, on behalf of itself and each Releasor, understands that Section 1542, or a comparable statute, rule, regulation or order of another jurisdiction, gives such the Company Stockholder the right not to release existing claims of which the Company Stockholder is not aware, unless the Company Stockholder voluntarily chooses to waive this right. Having been so apprised, the Company Stockholder, on behalf of itself and each Releasor, nevertheless hereby voluntarily elects to and does waive the rights described in Section 1542, or such other comparable statute, rule, regulation or order, and elects to assume all risks for claims that exist, existed or may hereafter exist in its favor, known or unknown, suspected or unsuspected, arising out of or related to claims or other matters purported to be released pursuant to this Section 5, in each case, effective at the Closing. The Company Stockholder, on behalf of itself and each Releasor, acknowledges and agrees that the foregoing waiver is an essential and material term of the release provided pursuant to this Section 5 and that, without such waiver, Parent would not have agreed to the terms of this Agreement.

6. Covenants.

(a) Further Assurances. From time to time and without additional consideration, the Company Stockholder shall execute and deliver, or cause to be executed and delivered, such additional transfers, assignments, endorsements, proxies, consents and other instruments, and shall take such further actions as Parent may reasonably request for the purpose of carrying out and furthering the intent of this Agreement. The Company Stockholder further agrees not to commence or participate in, and to take all actions necessary to opt out of any class in any class action with respect to, any action or claim, derivative or otherwise, against Parent, Parent’s Affiliates, the Sponsor, the Company, the Surviving Entity or any of their respective successors and assigns relating to the negotiation, execution or delivery of this Agreement, the Merger Agreement (including the Per Share Company Stock Consideration) or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby and thereby.

(b) Acknowledgment. The Company Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that the Company Stockholder is entering into this Agreement On the Company Stockholder’s own free will and not under any duress or undue influence. THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER has entered into this Agreement freely and without coercion, THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER has been advised by PARENT to consult with counsel of THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER’s choice with regard to the execution of this Agreement and THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER’s covenants hereunder, THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER has had an adequate opportunity to consult with such counsel and either so consulted or freely determined in THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER’s own discretion not to so consult with such counsel, THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER understands that PARENT haS

This Agreement shall be interpreted and construed as having been drafted jointly by THE COMPANY STOCKHOLDER and PARENT and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party hereto by virtue of the authorship of any or all of the provisions of this Agreement.

(c) Consent to Terminate Certain Agreements. The Company Stockholder hereby consents to the termination, contingent upon and automatically effective as of the Closing, of all Contracts set forth on Section 7.18 of the Company Disclosure Letter (other than any indemnification agreements between any D&O Indemnified Party and the Company).

All Section and Schedule references herein are to Sections and Schedules of this Agreement, unless otherwise specified.

(d) Section Headings; Defined Terms. The Section headings contained in this Agreement are exclusively for the purpose of reference, are not part of the agreement of the parties and shall not in any way affect the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement. The defined terms contained in this Agreement are inserted for convenience only and shall not affect in any way the meaning or interpretation of this Agreement.

(e) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed to be an original, but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same agreement. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page to this Agreement by facsimile or e-mail shall be as effective as delivery of a manually executed counterpart of the Agreement. Minor variations in the form of the signature page, including footers from earlier versions of this Agreement or any such other document, will be disregarded in determining a party’s intent or the effectiveness of such signature.

(f) Entire Agreement; No Third Party Beneficiaries. The agreement of the parties that is comprised of this Agreement, the Letter of Transmittal executed by the Company Stockholder and the provisions of the Merger Agreement referenced in Section 4 herein to which the Company Stockholder has expressly agreed to be bound constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties hereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersedes all other prior agreements, and understandings, whether oral or written, relating to the subject matter of this Agreement, and is not intended to confer upon any Person other than the parties hereto any rights or remedies hereunder; provided, however, that the Releasees are express third party beneficiaries of this Agreement and the Company shall be an express third party beneficiary with respect to Section 4 and Section 6(c) hereof. For the avoidance of doubt, this Agreement does not and shall not affect any prior understandings, agreements or representations with respect to any similar subject matter entered into in connection with or as a result of the Company Stockholder’s direct or indirect ownership of any Company Interests or any provision of services to the Company.

(g) Severability.

Upon such determination that any term or other provision is invalid, illegal or incapable of being enforced, the parties hereto shall negotiate in good faith

Annex G-6

Table of Contents

to modify this Agreement so as to effect the original intent of the parties hereto as closely as possible in a mutually acceptable manner in order that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be consummated as originally contemplated to the fullest extent possible.

(h) Binding Effect; Assignment. This Agreement and all of the provisions hereof shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their respective successors and permitted assigns. Subject to Section 4(a), neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations hereunder shall be assigned, directly or indirectly, including by operation of law, by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party hereto. Any purported assignment in violation of this Section 7(h) shall be null and void ab initio.

(i) Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware (regardless of the laws that might otherwise govern under applicable principles of conflicts of laws thereof) as to all matters (including Legal Proceedings related hereto), including matters of validity, construction, effect, performance and remedies.

(j) Consent to Jurisdiction, Etc. Each party hereto hereby and any Person asserting rights as a third party beneficiary may do so only if he, she or it irrevocably agrees that any Legal Proceeding shall be brought only to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware or, if such court declines to exercise jurisdiction, the U.S. District Court for the District of Delaware, and each party hereto hereby consents to the jurisdiction of such courts (and of the appropriate appellate courts therefrom) in any such suit, action or proceeding and irrevocably waives, to the fullest extent permitted by Law, any objection that it may now or hereafter have to the laying of the venue of any such suit, action or proceeding in any such court or that any such suit, action or proceeding that is brought in any such court has been brought in an inconvenient forum. During the period a Legal Proceeding that is filed in accordance with this Section 7(j) is pending before a court, all actions, suits or proceedings with respect to such Legal Proceeding or any other Legal Proceeding, including any counterclaim, cross-claim or interpleader, shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of such court. Each party hereto and any Person asserting rights as a third party beneficiary may do so only if he, she or it hereby waives, and shall not assert as a defense in any Legal Proceeding, that (a) such party is not personally subject to the jurisdiction of the above named courts for any reason, (b) such action, suit or proceeding may not be brought or is not maintainable in such court, (c) such party’s property is exempt or immune from execution, (d) such action, suit or proceeding is brought in an inconvenient forum, or (e) the venue of such action, suit or proceeding is improper. A final judgment in any action, suit or proceeding described in this Section 7(j) following the expiration of any period permitted for appeal and subject to any stay during appeal shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by applicable Laws. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO AND ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY MAY DO SO ONLY IF HE, SHE OR IT IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY ON ANY CLAIMS OR COUNTERCLAIMS ASSERTED IN ANY LEGAL DISPUTE RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY AND FOR ANY COUNTERCLAIM RELATING THERETO. IF THE SUBJECT MATTER OF ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE IS ONE IN WHICH THE WAIVER OF JURY TRIAL IS PROHIBITED, NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL ASSERT IN SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE A NONCOMPULSORY COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY. FURTHERMORE, NO PARTY HERETO NOR ANY PERSON ASSERTING RIGHTS AS A THIRD PARTY BENEFICIARY SHALL SEEK TO CONSOLIDATE ANY SUCH LEGAL DISPUTE WITH A SEPARATE ACTION OR OTHER LEGAL PROCEEDING IN WHICH A JURY TRIAL CANNOT BE WAIVED.

(k) Specific Performance. The Company Stockholder agrees that irreparable damage would occur for which monetary damages, even if available, would not be an adequate remedy in the event that the Company Stockholder does not perform its obligations under the provisions of this Agreement in accordance with its specified terms or otherwise breach such provisions. The Company Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that Parent shall therefore be entitled to an injunction or injunctions, specific performance or other equitable relief to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to enforce specifically the terms and provisions hereof in any action instituted in any court in the United States or in any state or province having jurisdiction over the parties hereto and the matter in addition to any other remedy to which they may be entitled pursuant hereto, and that such explicit rights of specific enforcement are an integral part of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and without such rights, Parent would not have entered into this Agreement. The Company Stockholder agrees that it will not oppose the granting of an injunction, specific performance and other equitable relief on the basis that Parent have an adequate monetary or other remedy at

Annex G-7

Table of Contents

law. The Company Stockholder acknowledges and agrees that if Parent seeks an injunction or injunctions to prevent breaches of this Agreement or to enforce specifically the terms and provisions of this Agreement, Parent shall not be required to provide any bond or other security in connection with any such order or injunction.

(l) No Ownership Interest. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to vest in Parent any direct or indirect ownership or incidence of ownership of or with respect to the Equity Securities of the Company Stockholder. All rights, ownership and economic benefits (but excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any voting rights to the extent described herein) of and relating to the Equity Securities of the Company Stockholder shall remain fully vested in and belong to the Company Stockholder, and Parent shall have no authority to direct the Company Stockholder in the voting or disposition of any of the Stockholder’s Equity Securities, except as otherwise provided herein.

(m) Capacity as a Stockholder. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Company Stockholder signs this Agreement solely in the Company Stockholder’s capacity as a stockholder of the Company, and not in any other capacity (including as an officer or director of the Company) and this Agreement shall not limit or otherwise affect the actions of the Company Stockholder (or any affiliate, employee or designee of the Company Stockholder) in his or her capacity, if applicable, as an officer or director of the Company or any other Person.

FORM OF SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

Stable Road Acquisition Corp.
1345 Abbot Kinney Blvd
Venice, California 90291

Ladies and Gentlemen:

This Subscription Agreement (this “Subscription Agreement”) is being entered into as of the date set forth on the signature page hereto, by and between Stable Road Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SRAC”), and the undersigned subscriber (the “Investor”), in connection with the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Transaction Agreement”), by and among SRAC, Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), Project Marvel First Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of SRAC (“First Merger Sub”) and Project Marvel Second Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned subsidiary of SRAC (“Second Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, among other things, First Merger Sub will merge with and into the Company, with the Company as the surviving corporation of such merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), and immediately thereafter and as part of the same overall transaction, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub surviving such merger as a wholly-owned subsidiary of SRAC, on the terms and subject to the conditions therein (the transactions contemplated by the Transaction Agreement, including the merger, the “Transaction”). In connection with the Transaction, SRAC is seeking commitments from interested investors to purchase, substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction, shares of SRAC’s Class A Common Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Shares”), in a private placement for a purchase price of $10.00 per share. The aggregate purchase price to be paid by the Investor for the subscribed Shares (as set forth on the signature page hereto) is referred to herein as the “Subscription Amount.”

In connection therewith, and in consideration of the foregoing and the mutual representations, warranties and covenants, and subject to the conditions, set forth herein, and intending to be legally bound hereby, each of the Investor and SRAC acknowledges and agrees as follows:

1. Subscription. The Investor hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase from SRAC the number of Shares set forth on the signature page of this Subscription Agreement on the terms and subject to the conditions provided for herein. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that SRAC reserves the right to accept or reject the Investor’s subscription for the Shares for any reason or for no reason, in whole or in part, at any time prior to its acceptance, and the same shall be deemed to be accepted by SRAC only when this Subscription Agreement is signed by a duly authorized person by or on behalf of SRAC.

2. Closing. The closing of the sale of the Shares contemplated hereby (the “Closing”) shall occur on the date of and substantially concurrently with and conditioned upon the closing of the Transaction (such date, the “Closing Date”). At least five (5) business days prior to the anticipated Closing Date, SRAC shall deliver a written notice (the “Closing Notice”) to the Investor, specifying (a) the anticipated Closing Date and (b) wire instructions for the account(s) into which the Investor shall fund the Subscription Amount. No later than two (2) business days prior to the Closing Date, the Investor shall deliver (i) the Subscription Amount by wire transfer of United States dollars in immediately available funds to the account(s) specified by SRAC in the Closing Notice and (ii) any other information that is reasonably requested in the Closing Notice in order for SRAC to issue the Investor’s Shares, including, without limitation, the legal name of the person in whose name such Shares are to be issued and a duly executed Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 or W-8, as applicable. On the Closing Date, SRAC shall deliver to the Investor the number of Shares set forth on the signature page to this Subscription Agreement in book entry form, free and clear of any liens or other restrictions whatsoever (other than those set forth in this Subscription Agreement, arising under any written agreement to which the Investor is a party or arising under state or federal securities laws), in the name of the Investor (or its nominee in accordance with its delivery instructions) by causing such Shares to be registered on SRAC’s share register; provided, however, that SRAC’s obligation to issue the Shares to the Investor is contingent upon SRAC having received the Subscription Amount in full accordance with this Section 2. In the event the closing of the Transaction does not occur within five (5) business days of the Closing Date specified in the Closing Notice, unless otherwise instructed by the Investor, SRAC shall promptly (but not later than one (1) business day thereafter) return the Subscription Amount to the Investor by wire transfer of U.S. dollars in immediately available funds to the account specified by the

Annex H-1

Table of Contents

Investor, and any book entries shall be deemed cancelled. For purposes of this Subscription Agreement, “business day” shall mean a day, other than a Saturday or Sunday, on which commercial banks in New York, New York and Los Angeles, California are open for the general transaction of business.

3. Closing Conditions.

a. The obligations of the parties hereto to consummate the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement is subject to the following conditions:

(ii) all conditions precedent to the closing of the Transaction under the Transaction Agreement shall have been satisfied or waived (as determined by the parties to the Transaction Agreement and other than those conditions under the Transaction Agreement which, by their nature, are to be fulfilled at the closing of the Transaction, including to the extent that any such condition is dependent upon the consummation of the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, but subject to the satisfaction or waiver of such conditions at the closing of the Transaction) and the closing of the Transaction shall occur, in accordance with the terms of the Transaction Agreement, on the Closing Date, substantially concurrently with the Closing.

b. The obligation of SRAC to consummate the issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the conditions that (i) all representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this Subscription Agreement be true and correct in all material respects when made, and be true and correct in all material respects on and as of the Closing Date (unless they specifically speak as of an earlier date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date), and the Investor hereby acknowledges that the consummation of the Closing shall constitute a reaffirmation by the Investor of each of the representations and warranties of the Investor contained in this Subscription Agreement as of the Closing Date; and (ii) all obligations, covenants and agreements of the Investor required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing Date shall have been performed in all material respects.

c. The obligation of the Investor to consummate the purchase of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement shall be subject to the condition that (i) all representations and warranties of SRAC contained in this Subscription Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects when made (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect (as defined herein), which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) and be true and correct in all material respects at and as of the Closing Date (unless they specifically speak as of an earlier date in which case they shall be true and correct in all material respects as of such date) (other than representations and warranties that are qualified as to materiality or Material Adverse Effect, which representations and warranties shall be true in all respects) and SRAC hereby acknowledges that the consummation of the Closing shall constitute a reaffirmation by SRAC of each of the representations and warranties of SRAC contained in this Subscription Agreement as of the Closing Date; (ii) all obligations, covenants and agreements of SRAC required to be performed by it at or prior to the Closing Date shall have been performed in all material respects; (iii) the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the other subscription agreements related to the private placement of the Shares for the issuance of at least an aggregate of 10,000,000 Shares generating proceeds to SRAC of at least $100,000,000 shall close substantially concurrently with the closing of the Transaction; and (iv) no amendment or modification of the Transaction Agreement shall have occurred that materially and adversely affects the Investor’s economic benefits under this Subscription Agreement.

4. Further Assurances. At the Closing, the parties hereto shall execute and deliver such additional documents and take such additional actions as the parties reasonably may deem to be practical and necessary in order to consummate the subscription as contemplated by this Subscription Agreement.

5. SRAC Representations and Warranties. SRAC represents and warrants to the Investor that:

a. SRAC is duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware. SRAC has all power (corporate or otherwise) and authority to own, lease and operate its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted and to enter into, deliver and perform its obligations under this Subscription Agreement.

Table of Contents

          b. As of the Closing Date, the Shares will be duly authorized and, when issued and delivered to the Investor in exchange for the Subscription Amount in accordance with the terms of this Subscription Agreement, the Shares will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and will not have been issued in violation of any preemptive or similar rights created under SRAC’s certificate of incorporation (as amended as of the Closing Date) or under the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

c. This Subscription Agreement and the Transaction Agreement (collectively, the “Transaction Documents”) have been duly authorized, executed and delivered by SRAC and, assuming that the Transaction Documents constitute the valid and binding agreement of the other parties thereto, the Transaction Documents are enforceable against SRAC in accordance with their respective terms, except as may be limited or otherwise affected by (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent conveyance, reorganization, moratorium or other laws relating to or affecting the rights of creditors generally, or (ii) principles of equity, whether considered at law or equity.

d. The execution and delivery of, and the performance of the transactions contemplated by this Subscription Agreement and the other Transaction Documents, including the issuance and sale of the Shares and the compliance by SRAC with all of the provisions of this Subscription Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated herein, will not (i) conflict with or result in a breach or violation of any of the terms or provisions of, or constitute a default under, or result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of the property or assets of SRAC or any of its subsidiaries pursuant to the terms of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, loan agreement, lease, license or other agreement or instrument to which SRAC or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which SRAC or any of its subsidiaries is bound or to which any of the property or assets of SRAC is subject that would reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the business, financial condition or results of operations of SRAC and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole (a “Material Adverse Effect”) or materially affect the validity of the Shares or the legal authority of SRAC to comply in all material respects with the terms of this Subscription Agreement; (ii) result in any violation of the provisions of the organizational documents of SRAC; or (iii) result in any violation of any statute or any judgment, order, rule or regulation of any court or governmental agency or body, domestic or foreign, having jurisdiction over SRAC or any of its properties that would reasonably be expected to have a Material Adverse Effect or materially affect the validity of the Shares or the legal authority of SRAC to comply in all material respects with this Subscription Agreement.

e. As of their respective dates, all reports (the “SEC Reports”) required to be filed by SRAC with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) complied in all material respects with the applicable requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and/or the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and the rules and regulations of the SEC promulgated thereunder, and none of the SEC Reports, when filed, contained any untrue statement of a material fact or omitted to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

f. Except for such matters as have not had and would not be reasonably likely to have, individually or in the aggregate, a Material Adverse Effect, as of the date hereof, there is no (i) action, suit, claim or other proceeding, in each case by or before any governmental authority pending, or, to the knowledge of SRAC, threatened against SRAC or (ii) judgment, decree, injunction, ruling or order of any governmental entity or arbitrator outstanding against SRAC.

g. As of the date of this Subscription Agreement, the authorized capital stock of SRAC consists of (i) 1,000,000 preferred shares of SRAC, par value $0.0001 per share (“Preferred Stock”), of which no shares of Preferred Stock are issued and outstanding; (ii) 100,000,000 Shares, of which 17,795,000 Shares are issued and outstanding; (iii) 10,000,000 shares of Class B Common Stock of SRAC, par value $0.0001 per share (“Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Preferred Stock and the Shares, the “Total SRAC Shares”), of which 4,312,500 shares of Class B Common Stock are issued and outstanding; (iv) 272,500 warrants to purchase one Share (the “Private Placement Warrants”), all of which are outstanding; and (v) 8,625,000 warrants to purchase one Share (the “Public Warrants,” collectively with the Private Placement Warrants, the “Warrants”), all of which are outstanding. All outstanding Shares, Class B Common Stock, Private Placement Warrants and Public Warrants have been duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and are not subject to preemptive rights. Except as set forth above and pursuant to the other subscription agreements, the Transaction Agreement and the other agreements and arrangements referred to therein, as of the date hereof, there are no outstanding options, warrants or other rights to subscribe for, purchase or acquire from SRAC any Shares, Class B Common Stock or other equity interests in SRAC, or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for such equity interests. As of the date hereof, SRAC has no subsidiaries, other than First Merger Sub

Annex H-3

Table of Contents

and Second Merger Sub and does not own, directly or indirectly, interests or investments (whether equity or debt) in any person, whether incorporated or unincorporated. There are no shareholder agreements, voting trusts or other agreements or understandings to which SRAC is a party or by which it is bound relating to the voting of any securities of SRAC, other than (1) as set forth in the SEC Reports and (2) as contemplated by the Transaction Agreement.

h. As of the date hereof, the issued and outstanding Shares are registered pursuant to Section 12(b) of the Exchange Act, and are listed for trading on The Nasdaq Stock Market (“Nasdaq”) under the symbol “SRAC.” There is no suit, action, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the knowledge of SRAC, threatened against SRAC by Nasdaq or the SEC with respect to any intention by such entity to deregister such shares or prohibit or terminate the listing of the Shares on Nasdaq. SRAC has taken no action that is designed to terminate the registration of such shares under the Exchange Act.

6. Investor Representations and Warranties. The Investor represents and warrants to SRAC that:

a. The Investor (i) is a “qualified institutional buyer” (as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act) or an institutional “accredited investor” (within the meaning of Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act), in each case, satisfying the applicable requirements set forth on Schedule A, (ii) is acquiring the Shares only for the Investor’s own account and not for the account of others, or if the Investor is subscribing for the Shares as a fiduciary or agent for one or more investor accounts, the Investor has full investment discretion with respect to each such account, and the full power and authority to make the acknowledgements, representations and agreements herein on behalf of each owner of each such account, and (iii) is not acquiring the Shares with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution thereof in violation of the Securities Act (and shall provide the requested information set forth on Schedule A).

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Shares will be subject to transfer restrictions and, as a result of these transfer restrictions, the Investor may not be able to readily offer, resell, transfer, pledge or otherwise dispose of the Shares and may be required to bear the financial risk of an investment in the Shares for an indefinite period of time. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Shares will not be eligible for offer, resale, transfer, pledge or disposition pursuant to Rule 144 promulgated under the Securities Act until at least one year from the Closing Date. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor has been advised to consult with its legal counsel and tax and accounting advisors prior to making any offer, resale, transfer, pledge or disposition of any of the Shares.

c. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor is purchasing the Shares from SRAC. The Investor further acknowledges that there have been no representations, warranties, covenants and agreements made to the Investor by or on behalf of SRAC, the Company, any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, direct or indirect equityholders, officers, managers, directors, employees, consultants, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing or any other person or entity, expressly or by implication, other than those representations, warranties, covenants and agreements of SRAC expressly set forth in Section 5 of this Subscription Agreement.

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor has received such information as the Investor deems necessary in order to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares, including, with respect to SRAC, the Transaction and the business of the Company and its subsidiaries.

The Investor acknowledges and agrees that the Investor and the Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, have had the full opportunity to ask such questions, receive such answers and obtain such information as the Investor and such Investor’s professional advisor(s), if any, have deemed necessary to make an investment decision with respect to the Shares.

The Investor acknowledges specifically that a possibility of total loss exists. The Investor is able to sustain a complete loss on its investment in the Shares, has no need for liquidity with respect to its investment in the Shares and has no reason to anticipate any change in circumstances, financial or otherwise, which may cause or require any sale or distribution of all or any part of the Shares.

h. In making its decision to purchase the Shares, the Investor has relied solely upon independent investigation made by the Investor. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Investor has not relied on any statements or other information provided by or on behalf of either Placement Agent or any of their respective affiliates or any control persons, officers, directors, employees, partners, agents or representatives of any of the foregoing concerning SRAC, the Company, the Transaction, the Transaction Agreement, this Subscription Agreement or the transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, the Shares or the offer and sale of the Shares.

Section 5311 et seq.), as amended by the USA PATRIOT Act of 2001 and its implementing regulations (collectively, the “BSA/PATRIOT Act”), the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to comply with applicable obligations under the BSA/PATRIOT Act. If the Investor is an entity, the Investor also represents and warrants that it maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure compliance with OFAC-administered sanctions programs, including for the screening of its investors against the OFAC sanctions programs, including the OFAC List. Investor further represents and warrants that, to the extent required by applicable law, the Investor maintains policies and procedures reasonably designed to ensure that the funds held by the Investor and used to purchase the Shares were legally derived.

m. The Investor’s acquisition and holding of the Shares will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), or any other federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that are similar to such provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, “Similar Laws”).

Part 800.244) will acquire a substantial interest in SRAC as a result of the purchase and sale of Shares hereunder such that a declaration to the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States would be mandatory under 31 C.F.R. Part 800.401, and no foreign person will have control (as defined in 31 C.F.R. Part 800.208) over SRAC from and after the Closing as a result of the purchase and sale of Shares hereunder.

          s. The Investor has or has commitments to have and, when required to deliver payment to SRAC pursuant to Section 2 above, will have, sufficient funds to pay the Subscription Amount and consummate the purchase and sale of the Shares pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

t. As of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, the Investor represents that no disqualifying event described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i-viii) of the Securities Act (a “Disqualification Event”) is applicable to the Investor or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties (as defined below), except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. The Investor hereby agrees that it shall notify SRAC promptly in writing in the event a Disqualification Event becomes applicable to the Investor or any of its Rule 506(d) Related Parties at or prior to the Closing, except, if applicable, for a Disqualification Event as to which Rule 506(d)(2)(ii) or (iii) or (d)(3) is applicable. For purposes of this paragraph (t), “Rule 506(d) Related Party” shall mean a person or entity that is a beneficial owner of the Investor’s securities for purposes of Rule 506(d) of the Securities Act.

u. The Investor agrees that, from the date of this Subscription Agreement, none of the Investor nor any person or entity acting on behalf of the Investor or pursuant to any understanding with the Investor will engage in any Short Sales with respect to securities of SRAC prior to the Closing. For the purposes hereof, “Short Sales” shall include, without limitation, all “short sales” as defined in Rule 200 promulgated under Regulation SHO under the Exchange Act, and all types of direct and indirect stock pledges (other than pledges in the ordinary course of business as part of prime brokerage arrangements), forward sale contracts, options, puts, calls, swaps and similar arrangements (including on a total return basis), and sales and other transactions through non-U.S. broker dealers or foreign regulated brokers. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing herein shall prohibit other entities under common management with the Investor that have no knowledge of this Subscription Agreement or of Investor’s participation in this transaction (including the Investor’s controlled affiliates and/or affiliates) from entering into any Short Sales.

7. Registration Rights.

a. In the event that the Shares are not registered in connection with the consummation of the Transaction, SRAC agrees that, within thirty (30) calendar days after the Closing Date, SRAC will file with the SEC (at its sole cost and expense) a registration statement registering the resale of the Shares (the “Registration Statement”), and it shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to have the Registration Statement declared effective as soon as practicable after the filing thereof, but no later than the earlier of (i) the 60th calendar day following the filing date (or the 90th calendar day if the SEC notifies SRAC (orally or in writing) that it will “review” the Registration Statement) and (ii) the 5th business day after the date SRAC is notified (orally or in writing) by the SEC that the Registration Statement will not be “reviewed” or will not be subject to further review (such earlier date, the “Effectiveness Date”); provided, however, that if such date falls on a Saturday, Sunday or other day that the SEC is closed for business, such date shall be extended to the next business day on which the SEC is open for business. SRAC agrees to cause such Registration Statement, or another shelf registration statement that includes the Shares to be sold pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, to remain effective until the earliest of (a) the second anniversary of the Effectiveness Date, (b) the date on which the Investor ceases to hold any Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement, and (c) the first date on which the Investor is able to sell all of its Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement (or shares received in exchange therefor) under Rule 144 of the Securities Act without limitation as to the amount of such securities that may be sold. The Investor agrees to disclose its ownership to SRAC upon request to assist it in making the determination described above. SRAC may amend the Registration Statement so as to convert the Registration Statement to a Registration Statement on Form S-3 at such time after SRAC becomes eligible to use such Form S-3. The Investor acknowledges and agrees that SRAC may suspend the use of any such registration statement if it determines that in order for such registration statement not to contain a material misstatement or omission, an amendment thereto would be needed to include information that would at that time not otherwise be required in a current, quarterly, or annual report under the Exchange Act; provided, that, (i) SRAC shall not so suspend the use of the Registration Statement for a period of more than sixty (60) consecutive days, (ii) SRAC may suspend the use of the Registration Statement hereunder only once in any twelve (12)-month period and (iii) SRAC shall use commercially reasonable efforts to make such Registration Statement available for the sale by the Investors of the Shares as soon as practicable thereafter.

b. If the SEC prevents SRAC from including any or all of the Shares proposed to be registered for resale under the Registration Statement due to limitations on the use of Rule 415 of the Securities Act for the resale of the Shares by the applicable shareholders or otherwise, (i) such Registration Statement shall register for resale such number of Shares which is equal to the maximum number of Shares as is permitted by the SEC and (ii) the number of Shares to be registered for each selling shareholder named in the Registration Statement shall be reduced pro rata among all such

Annex H-7

selling shareholders. In no event shall the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement unless requested by the SEC; provided, that if the SEC requests that the Investor be identified as a statutory underwriter in the Registration Statement, the Investor will have an opportunity to withdraw from the Registration Statement.

c. SRAC’s obligations to include the Shares issued pursuant to this Subscription Agreement for resale in the Registration Statement are contingent upon the Investor furnishing in writing to SRAC such information regarding the Investor, the securities of SRAC held by the Investor and the intended method of disposition of such Shares, which shall be limited to non-underwritten public offerings, as shall be reasonably requested by SRAC to effect the registration of such Shares, and shall execute such documents in connection with such registration as SRAC may reasonably request that are customary of a selling stockholder in similar situations.

d. SRAC shall, notwithstanding any termination of this Subscription Agreement, indemnify, defend and hold harmless Investor (to the extent a seller under the Registration Statement), the officers, directors and agents of Investor, and each person who controls Investor (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against any and all out-of-pocket losses, claims, damages, liabilities, costs (including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees) and expenses (collectively, “Losses”), as incurred, that arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement or any form of prospectus or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus or form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, or (ii) any violation or alleged violation by SRAC of the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder, in connection with the performance of its obligations under this Section 7, except to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue statements, alleged untrue statements, omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Investor furnished in writing to SRAC by Investor expressly for use therein or Investor has omitted a material fact from such information or otherwise violated the Securities Act, Exchange Act or any state securities law or any rule or regulation thereunder; provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 7 shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of SRAC (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed), nor shall SRAC be liable for any Losses to the extent they arise out of or are based upon a violation which occurs (A) in reliance upon and in conformity with written information furnished by Investor, (B) in connection with any failure of such person to deliver or cause to be delivered a prospectus made available by SRAC in a timely manner or (C) in connection with any offers or sales effected by or on behalf of Investor in violation of Section 7(d) hereof. SRAC shall notify Investor promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 7 of which SRAC is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Shares by Investor.

e. Investor shall indemnify and hold harmless SRAC, its directors, officers, agents and employees, and each person who controls SRAC (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act), to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, from and against all Losses, as incurred, (i) arising out of or based upon any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in any Registration Statement, any prospectus included in the Registration Statement, or any form of prospectus, or in any amendment or supplement thereto or in any preliminary prospectus, or (ii) arising out of or relating to any omission or alleged omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein (in the case of any prospectus, or any form of prospectus or supplement thereto, in light of the circumstances under which they were made) not misleading, with respect to (i) and/or (ii), to the extent, but only to the extent, that such untrue or alleged untrue statements or omissions or alleged omissions are based upon information regarding Investor furnished in writing to SRAC by Investor expressly for use therein (and for the avoidance of doubt, not to the extent based upon information regarding any other investor that is party to any of the other subscription agreements related to the private placement of the Shares); provided, however, that the indemnification contained in this Section 7(e) shall not apply to amounts paid in settlement of any Losses if such settlement is effected without the consent of Investor (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed). In no event shall the liability of Investor be greater in amount than the dollar amount of the net proceeds received by Investor upon the sale of the Shares giving rise to such indemnification obligation. Investor shall notify SRAC promptly of the institution, threat or assertion of any proceeding arising from or in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Section 7(e) of which Investor is aware. Such indemnity shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of an indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of the Shares by Investor.

          f. With a view to making available to the Investor the benefits of Rule 144 of the Securities Act that may at any time following the Closing Date permit the Investor to sell its Shares to the public without registration. SRAC agrees, until the second anniversary of the Effectiveness Date, to:

(i) make and keep public information available, as those terms are understood and defined in Rule 144 of the Securities Act;

(ii) file with the SEC in a timely manner all reports and other documents required of SRAC under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act for so long as SRAC remains subject to such requirements and the filing of such reports and other documents is required for the applicable provisions of Rule 144 of the Securities Act; and

(iii) furnish to the Investor so long as it owns its Shares, within two (2) business days following its receipt of a written request therefor from the Investor, (x) a written statement by SRAC, if true, that it has complied with the reporting requirements of Rule 144 of the Securities Act, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act, (y) a copy of the most recent annual or quarterly report of SRAC filed with the SEC and such other reports and documents so filed with the SEC by SRAC and (z) such other information as may be reasonably requested in writing to permit the Investor to sell such securities pursuant to Rule 144 without registration (to the extent readily available and consistent with SRAC’s internal policies and procedures).

8. Termination. This Subscription Agreement shall terminate and be void and of no further force and effect, and all rights and obligations of the parties hereunder shall terminate without any further liability on the part of any party in respect thereof, upon the earlier to occur of (a) such date and time as the Transaction Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms without being consummated, (b) upon the mutual written agreement of each of the parties hereto and the Company to terminate this Subscription Agreement, (c) 30 days after the Outside Date (as defined in the Transaction Agreement), if the Closing has not occurred by such date, or (d) by written notice of the Investor to SRAC in the event the Transaction Agreement is amended, supplemented or otherwise modified after the date hereof in a manner that materially adversely affects the Investor (the termination events described in clauses (a) – (d) above, collectively, the “Termination Events”); provided that nothing herein will relieve any party from liability for any willful breach hereof prior to the time of termination, and each party will be entitled to any remedies at law or in equity to recover losses, liabilities or damages arising from any such willful breach. SRAC shall notify the Investor in writing of the termination of the Transaction Agreement promptly after the termination of such agreement. Upon the occurrence of any Termination Event, this Subscription Agreement shall be void and of no further effect and any monies paid by the Investor to SRAC in connection herewith shall promptly (and in any event within one business day) following the Termination Event be returned to the Investor.

9. Trust Account Waiver. The Investor acknowledges that SRAC is a blank check company with the powers and privileges to effect a merger, asset acquisition, reorganization or similar business combination involving SRAC and one or more businesses or assets. The Investor further acknowledges that, as described in SRAC’s prospectus relating to its initial public offering dated November 7, 2019 (the “Prospectus”) available at www.sec.gov, substantially all of SRAC’s assets consist of the cash proceeds of SRAC’s initial public offering and private placement of its securities, and substantially all of those proceeds have been deposited in a trust account (the “Trust Account”) for the benefit of SRAC, its public shareholders and the underwriters of SRAC’s initial public offering. Except with respect to interest earned on the funds held in the Trust Account that may be released to SRAC to pay its tax obligations, if any, the cash in the Trust Account may be disbursed only for the purposes set forth in the Prospectus. For and in consideration of SRAC entering into this Subscription Agreement, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Investor hereby irrevocably waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claim of any kind it has or may have in the future, in or to any monies held in the Trust Account, and agrees not to seek recourse against the Trust Account, regardless of whether such claim arises as a result of, in connection with or relating in any way to, this Subscription Agreement or any other matter, and regardless of whether such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of liability (the “Released Claims”); provided, that the Released Claims shall not include any claims that the Investor may have solely in the Investor’s capacity as a record or beneficial holder of any Shares other than the Shares purchased by it pursuant to this Subscription Agreement.

No failure or delay of either party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. The rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies that they would otherwise have hereunder.

The Registration Statement filed with the Commission pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall be a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (a “Form S-3 Shelf”) or, if Form S-3 is not then available to the Company, on Form S-1 (a “Form S-1 Shelf”) or such other form of registration statement as is then available to effect a registration for resale of such Registrable Securities, covering such Registrable Securities, and shall contain a Prospectus in such form as to permit any Holder to sell such Registrable Securities pursuant to Rule 415 at any time beginning on the effective date for such Registration Statement. A Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 shall provide for the resale pursuant to any method or combination of methods legally available to, and requested by, the Holders. The Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities. As soon as practicable following the effective date of a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1, but in any event within five (5) business days of such date, the Company shall notify the Holders of the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. When effective, a Registration Statement filed pursuant to this subsection 2.1.1 (including the documents incorporated therein by reference) will comply as to form in all material respects with all applicable requirements of the Securities Act and will not contain an untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading (in the case of any Prospectus contained in such Registration Statement, in the light of the circumstances under which such statement is made).

2.1.2     Form S-3 Shelf. If the Company files a Form S-1 Shelf and thereafter the Company becomes eligible to use Form S-3 for secondary sales, the Company shall use its reasonable best efforts to file a Form S-3 Shelf as promptly as practicable to replace the shelf registration statement that is a Form S-1 Shelf and have the Form S-3 Shelf declared effective as promptly as practicable and to cause such Form S-3 Shelf to remain effective, and to be supplemented and amended to the extent necessary to ensure that such Registration Statement is available or, if not available, that another Registration Statement is available, for the resale of all the Registrable Securities held by the Holders until all such Registrable Securities have ceased to be Registrable Securities.

All requests for a Shelf Underwritten Offering shall be made by giving written notice to the Company (the “Shelf Takedown Notice”). Each Shelf Takedown Notice shall specify the approximate number of Registrable Securities proposed to be sold in the Shelf Underwritten Offering and the expected price range (net of underwriting discounts and commissions) of such Shelf Underwritten Offering. Except with respect to a Block Trade requested pursuant to Section 2.5, within two (2) business days after receipt of any Shelf Takedown Notice, the Company shall give written notice of such requested Shelf Underwritten Offering to all other Holders of Registrable Securities (the “Company Shelf Takedown Notice”) and, subject to the provisions of Section 2.2.4, shall include in such Shelf Underwritten Offering all Registrable Securities with respect to which the Company has received written requests for inclusion therein, within four (4) days after sending the Company Shelf Takedown Notice. The Company shall enter into an underwriting agreement in a form as is customary in Underwritten Offerings of securities by the Company with the managing Underwriter or Underwriters selected by the Holders after consultation with the Company and shall take all such other reasonable actions as are requested by the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in order to expedite or facilitate the disposition of such Registrable Securities. In connection with any Shelf Underwritten Offering contemplated by this subsection 2.1.3, subject to Section 3.3 and Article IV, the underwriting agreement into which each Holder and the Company shall enter shall contain such representations, covenants, indemnities and other rights and obligations of the Company and the selling stockholders as are customary in underwritten offerings of securities by the Company.

2.1.4     Holder Information Required for Participation in Shelf Registration. At least ten (10) business days prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Article II, the Company shall use reasonable efforts to notify each Holder in writing (which may be by email) of the information reasonably necessary about the Holder to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything else in this Agreement, the Company shall not be obligated to include such Holder’s Registrable Securities to the extent the Company has not received such information, and received any other reasonably requested agreements or certificates, on or prior to the fifth (5th) business day prior to the first anticipated filing date of a Registration Statement pursuant to this Article II.

2.2     Demand Registration.

2.2.1     Request for Registration.

The Company shall, within ten (10) days of the Company’s receipt of the Demand Registration, notify, in writing, all other Holders of Registrable Securities of such demand, and each Holder of Registrable Securities who thereafter wishes to include all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration (each such Holder that includes all or a portion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Registration, a “Requesting Holder”) shall so notify the Company, in writing, within five (5) days after the receipt by the Holder of the notice from the Company.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Company shall not be required to give effect to a Demand Registration from a Demanding Holder if the Company has registered Registrable Securities pursuant to a Demand Registration from such Demanding Holder in the preceding one hundred and eighty (180) days, or (ii) the Company’s obligations with respect to any Demand Registration shall be deemed satisfied so long as the Registration Statement filed pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 includes all of such Demanding Holder’s Registrable Securities and is effective.

2.2.2     Effective Registration. Notwithstanding the provisions of subsection 2.2.1 above or any other part of this Agreement, a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration shall not count as a Registration unless and until (i) the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration has been declared effective by the Commission and (ii) the Company has complied with all of its obligations under this Agreement with respect thereto; provided, further, that if, after such Registration Statement has been declared effective, an offering of Registrable Securities in a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration is subsequently interfered with by any stop order or injunction of the Commission, federal or state court or any other governmental agency, the Registration Statement with respect to such Registration shall be deemed not to have been declared effective, unless and until, (i) such stop order or injunction is removed, rescinded or otherwise terminated, and (ii) a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Demand Registration thereafter affirmatively elect to continue with such Registration and accordingly notify the Company in writing, but in no event later than five (5) days, of such election; and provided, further, that the Company shall not be obligated or required to file another Registration Statement until the Registration Statement that has been previously filed with respect to a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration becomes effective or is subsequently terminated.

2.2.3     Underwritten Offering. Subject to the provisions of subsection 2.2.4, if a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders so advise the Company as part of their Demand Registration that the offering of the Registrable Securities pursuant to such Demand Registration shall be in the form of an Underwritten Offering, then the right of such Demanding Holder or Requesting Holder (if any) to include its Registrable Securities in such Registration shall be conditioned upon such Holder’s participation in such Underwritten Offering and the inclusion of such Holder’s Registrable Securities in such Underwritten Offering to the extent provided herein. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.2.3 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating the Demand Registration, which Underwriter(s) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

2.2.4     Reduction of Underwritten Offering. If the managing Underwriter or Underwriters in an Underwritten Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration, in good faith, advises the Company, the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) in writing that the dollar amount or number of Registrable Securities that the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) desire to sell, taken together with all other Class A Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell and the Class A Common Stock, if any, as to which a Registration has been requested pursuant to separate written contractual piggy-back registration rights held by any other stockholders who desire to sell, exceeds the maximum dollar amount or maximum number of equity securities that can be sold in the Underwritten Offering without adversely affecting the proposed offering price, the timing, the distribution method, or the probability of success of such offering (such maximum dollar amount or maximum number of such securities, as applicable, the “Maximum Number of Securities”), then the Company shall include in such Underwritten Offering, as follows: (i) first, the Registrable Securities of the Demanding Holders and the Requesting Holders (if any) (in each case pro rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that such Demanding Holder and Requesting Holder (if any) has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that such Demanding Holders and Requesting Holders have requested be included in such Underwritten Registration (such proportion is referred to herein as “Pro Rata”)) that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (ii) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (i), the Class A Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (iii) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (i) and (ii), the Class A Common Stock or other equity securities of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register in a Registration pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons and that can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.3     Piggyback Registration.

2.3.1     Piggyback Rights. If the Company proposes to file a Registration Statement under the Securities Act with respect to an offering of equity securities, or securities or other obligations exercisable or exchangeable for, or convertible into, equity securities, for its own account or for the account of stockholders of the Company (or by the Company and by the stockholders of the Company including, without limitation, pursuant to subsection 2.1.1 or 2.1.2 hereof), other than a Registration Statement (or any registered offering with respect thereto) (i) filed in connection with any employee stock option or other benefit plan, (ii) for an exchange offer or offering of securities solely to the Company’s existing stockholders, (iii) for an offering of debt that is convertible into equity securities of the Company, (iv) for a dividend reinvestment plan or (v) a Block Trade, then the Company shall give written notice of such proposed filing to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities as soon as practicable but not less than ten (10) days before the anticipated filing date of such Registration Statement, which notice shall (A) describe the amount and type of securities to be included in such offering, the intended method(s) of distribution and the name of the proposed managing Underwriter or Underwriters, if any, in such offering, and (B) offer to all of the Holders of Registrable Securities the opportunity to register the sale of such number of Registrable Securities as such Holders may request in writing within five (5) days after receipt of such written notice (such Registration a “Piggyback Registration”). The Company shall, in good faith, cause such Registrable Securities to be included in such Piggyback Registration and shall use its best efforts to cause the managing Underwriter or Underwriters of a proposed Underwritten Offering to permit the Registrable Securities requested by the Holders pursuant to this subsection 2.3.1 to be included in a Piggyback Registration on the same terms and conditions as any similar securities of the Company included in such Registration and to permit the sale or other disposition of such Registrable Securities in accordance with the intended method(s) of distribution thereof. All such Holders proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through an Underwritten Offering under this subsection 2.3.1 shall enter into an underwriting agreement in customary form with the Underwriter(s) selected for such Underwritten Offering by the Company.

(a)     If the Registration is undertaken for the Company’s account, the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Class A Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.3.1 hereof, Pro Rata, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Class A Common Stock, if any, as to which Registration has been requested pursuant to written contractual piggyback registration rights of other stockholders of the Company, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities;

Annex I-8

Table of Contents

(b)     If the Registration is pursuant to a request by persons or entities other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, then the Company shall include in any such Registration (A) first, the Class A Common Stock or other equity securities, if any, of such requesting persons or entities, other than the Holders of Registrable Securities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (B) second, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clause (A), the Registrable Securities of Holders exercising their rights to register their Registrable Securities pursuant to subsection 2.3.1, Pro Rata based on the respective number of Registrable Securities that each Holder has requested be included in such Underwritten Registration and the aggregate number of Registrable Securities that the Holders have requested to be included in such Underwritten Registration, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; (C) third, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A) and (B), the Class A Common Stock or other equity securities that the Company desires to sell, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities; and (D) fourth, to the extent that the Maximum Number of Securities has not been reached under the foregoing clauses (A), (B) and (C), the Class A Common Stock or other equity securities for the account of other persons or entities that the Company is obligated to register pursuant to separate written contractual arrangements with such persons or entities, which can be sold without exceeding the Maximum Number of Securities.

2.3.3     Piggyback Registration Withdrawal. Any Holder of Registrable Securities shall have the right to withdraw from a Piggyback Registration for any or no reason whatsoever upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of his, her or its intention to withdraw from such Piggyback Registration prior to the effectiveness of the Registration Statement filed with the Commission with respect to such Piggyback Registration (or in the case of an Underwritten Registration pursuant to Rule 415, at least five (5) business days prior to the time of pricing of the applicable offering). The Company (whether on its own good faith determination or as the result of a request for withdrawal by persons pursuant to separate written contractual obligations) may withdraw a Registration Statement filed with the Commission in connection with a Piggyback Registration at any time prior to the effectiveness of such Registration Statement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with the Piggyback Registration prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.3.3.

2.3.4     Unlimited Piggyback Registration Rights. For purposes of clarity, any Registration effected pursuant to Section 2.3 hereof shall not be counted as a Registration pursuant to a Demand Registration effected under Section 2.2 hereof or a Shelf Underwritten Offering effected under subsection 2.1.3.

2.4     Restrictions on Registration Rights. If (A) during the period starting with the date sixty (60) days prior to the Company’s good faith estimate of the date of the filing of, and ending on a date one hundred and twenty (120) days after the effective date of, a Company initiated Registration and provided that the Company has delivered written notice to the Holders prior to receipt of a Demand Registration pursuant to subsection 2.2.1 and it continues to actively employ, in good faith, all reasonable efforts to cause the applicable Registration Statement to become effective; (B) the Holders have requested an Underwritten Registration and the Company and the Holders are unable to obtain the commitment of an Underwriter or Underwriters to firmly underwrite the offer; or (C) in the good faith judgment of the Board such Registration would be seriously detrimental to the Company and the Board concludes as a result that it is essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement at such time, then in each case the Company shall furnish to such Holders a certificate signed by the Chairman of the Board stating that in the good faith judgment of the Board it would be seriously detrimental to the Company for such Registration Statement to be filed in the near future and that it is therefore essential to defer the filing of such Registration Statement. In such event, the Company shall have the right to defer such filing for a period of not more than sixty (60) days; provided, however, that the Company shall not defer its obligation in this manner more than once in any twelve (12)-month period.

2.5     Block Trades.

2.5.1     Notwithstanding any other provision of this Article II, but subject to Sections 2.4 and 3.4, at any time and from time to time when an effective Form S-3 Shelf is on file with the Commission, if one or more Demanding Holders desire to effect a Block Trade with a total offering price reasonably expected to exceed, in the aggregate, either (x) $15,000,000 or (y) all remaining Registrable Securities held by such Demanding Holder(s), but in no event less than $10,000,000, then such Demanding Holder(s) shall provide written notice to the Company at least five (5) business days prior to the date such Block Trade will commence. As expeditiously as possible, the Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to facilitate such Block Trade. The Demanding Holders shall

use reasonable best efforts to work with the Company and the Underwriter(s) (including by disclosing the maximum number of Registrable Securities proposed to be the subject of such Block Trade) prior to making such request in order to facilitate preparation of the Registration Statement, Prospectus and other offering documentation related to the Block Trade and any related due diligence and comfort procedures.

2.5.2     Prior to the filing of the applicable “red herring” prospectus or prospectus supplement used in connection with a Block Trade, a majority-in-interest of the Demanding Holders initiating such Block Trade shall have the right to withdraw from such Block Trade upon written notification to the Company and the Underwriter or Underwriters (if any) of their intention to withdraw from such Block Trade. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Company shall be responsible for the Registration Expenses incurred in connection with a Block Trade prior to its withdrawal under this subsection 2.5.2.

2.5.3     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, Section 2.3 shall not apply to a Block Trade initiated by a Demanding Holder pursuant to this Agreement.

2.5.4     The Demanding Holder(s) in a Block Trade shall have the right to select the Underwriter(s) for such Block Trade (which shall consist of one or more reputable nationally recognized investment banks).

3.1.16     otherwise, in good faith, cooperate reasonably with, and take such customary actions as may reasonably be requested by the Holders, in connection with such Registration.

The Company further covenants that it shall take such further action as any Holder may reasonably request, all to the extent required from time to time to enable such Holder to sell shares of the Class A Common Stock held by such Holder without registration under the Securities Act within the limitation of the exemptions provided by Rule 144, including providing any legal opinions.

3.6     Transfer Restrictions.

3.6.1     Except with respect to a Transfer to a Permitted Transferee, during the applicable Lock-Up Periods, no Existing Holder shall, directly or indirectly, offer, sell, contract to sell, pledge, grant any option to purchase, make any short sale or otherwise dispose of or distribute (“Transfer”) any (i) shares of Class A Common Stock or any other shares of the Company’s capital stock, (ii) options or warrants to purchase any shares of Class A Common Stock or

Annex I-12

Table of Contents

any other shares of the Company’s capital stock or (iii) securities convertible into, exercisable for, exchangeable for or that represent the right to receive shares of Class A Common Stock or any other shares of the Company’s capital stock, in each case, whether now owned or hereinafter acquired, that are owned directly by such Existing Holder (including securities held as a custodian) or with respect to which such Existing Holder has beneficial ownership within the rules and regulations of the SEC (collectively, the “Restricted Shares”), or publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge, grant, disposition or transfer of the Restricted Shares. The foregoing restriction is expressly agreed to preclude each Existing Holder from engaging in any hedging or other transaction which is designed to or which reasonably could be expected to lead to or result in a sale or disposition of the Restricted Shares even if such Restricted Shares would be disposed of by someone other than such Existing Holder. Such prohibited hedging or other transactions include any short sale or any purchase, sale or grant of any right (including any put or call option) with respect to any of the Restricted Shares of the applicable Existing Holder or with respect to any security that includes, relates to, or derives any significant part of its value from such Restricted Shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to SRAC PIPE Investors LLC, only the [176,471] Founder Shares held by SRAC PIPE Investors LLC shall be Restricted Shares, and this Section 3.6 shall not apply to any other shares of Class A Common Stock held by such entity.

3.6.2     Each Existing Holder hereby represents and warrants that it now has and, except as contemplated by this subsection 3.6.2 for the duration of the applicable Lock-Up Period, will have good and marketable title to its Restricted Shares, free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, and claims that could impact the ability of such Existing Holder to comply with the foregoing restrictions. Each Existing Holder agrees and consents to the entry of stop transfer instructions with the Company’s transfer agent against the transfer of any Restricted Shares during the applicable Lock-Up Period, except in compliance with the foregoing restrictions.

3.6.3     In connection with any Underwritten Offering (other than a Block Trade), the Company and each Holder proposing to distribute their Registrable Securities through such Underwritten Offering will agree (with respect to the Registrable Securities held by such Holder) to be bound by the underwriting agreement’s lock-up restrictions (which must apply in like manner to all such Holders) that are agreed to by (a) the Company, if a majority of the shares being sold in such Underwritten Offering are being sold for its account, and (b) Holders holding a majority of the shares being sold by all Holders, if a majority of the shares being sold in such Underwritten Offering are being sold by the Holders, provided that, in no event shall any lock-up restriction in accordance with this subsection 3.6.3 exceed a period of forty-five (45) days from the date of the final Prospectus for any such Underwritten Offering, except with respect to the first Underwritten Offering following the closing of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, if the managing Underwriter or Underwriters, in good faith, advise the Company in writing that a lock-up restriction of a period of forty-five (45) or fewer days would have a material adverse impact on such Underwritten Offering, then such lock-up restrictions shall be for the number of days such managing Underwriter or Underwriters so advise, not to exceed a period of ninety (90) days from the date of the final Prospectus for any such Underwritten Offering.

Article IV

4.1.2     In connection with any Registration Statement in which a Holder of Registrable Securities is participating, such Holder shall furnish to the Company in writing such information and affidavits as the Company reasonably requests for use in connection with any such Registration Statement or Prospectus and, to the extent permitted by law, shall indemnify the Company, its directors and officers and agents and each person who controls the Company (within the meaning of the Securities Act) against any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses (including without limitation reasonable attorneys’ fees) resulting from any untrue statement of material fact contained in the Registration Statement, Prospectus or preliminary Prospectus or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto or any omission of a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading, but only to the extent that such untrue statement or omission is contained in any information or affidavit so furnished in writing by such Holder expressly for use therein; provided, however, that the obligation to indemnify shall be several, not joint and several, among such Holders of Registrable Securities, and the liability of each such Holder of Registrable Securities shall be in proportion to and limited to the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities in such offering giving rise to such liability. The Holders of Registrable Securities shall indemnify the Underwriters, their officers, directors and each person who controls such Underwriters (within the meaning of the Securities Act) to the same extent as provided in the foregoing with respect to indemnification of the Company.

4.1.3     Any person entitled to indemnification herein shall (i) give prompt written notice to the indemnifying party of any claim with respect to which it seeks indemnification (provided that the failure to give prompt notice shall not impair any person’s right to indemnification hereunder to the extent such failure has not materially prejudiced the indemnifying party) and (ii) unless in such indemnified party’s reasonable judgment a conflict of interest between such indemnified and indemnifying parties may exist with respect to such claim, permit such indemnifying party to assume the defense of such claim with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party. If such defense is assumed, the indemnifying party shall not be subject to any liability for any settlement made by the indemnified party without its consent (but such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld). An indemnifying party who is not entitled to, or elects not to, assume the defense of a claim shall not be obligated to pay the fees and expenses of more than one counsel (plus local counsel) for all parties indemnified by such indemnifying party with respect to such claim, unless in the reasonable judgment of any indemnified party a conflict of interest may exist between such indemnified party and any other of such indemnified parties with respect to such claim. No indemnifying party shall, without the consent of the indemnified party, consent to the entry of any judgment or enter into any settlement which cannot be settled in all respects by the payment of money (and such money is so paid by the indemnifying party pursuant to the terms of such settlement) or which settlement does not include as an unconditional term thereof the giving by the claimant or plaintiff to such indemnified party of a release from all liability in respect to such claim or litigation.

4.1.4     The indemnification provided for under this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect regardless of any investigation made by or on behalf of the indemnified party or any officer, director or controlling person of such indemnified party and shall survive the transfer of securities. The Company and each Holder of Registrable Securities participating in an offering also agrees to make such provisions as are reasonably requested by any indemnified party for contribution to such party in the event the Company’s or such Holder’s indemnification is unavailable for any reason.

4.1.5     If the indemnification provided under Section 4.1 hereof from the indemnifying party is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless an indemnified party in respect of any losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses referred to herein, then the indemnifying party, in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party, shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the indemnified party as a result of such losses, claims, damages, liabilities and expenses in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the indemnifying party and the indemnified party, as well as any other relevant equitable considerations. The relative fault of the indemnifying party and indemnified party shall be determined by reference to, among other things, whether any action in question, including any untrue or alleged untrue statement of a material fact or omission or alleged omission to state a material fact, was made by, or relates to information supplied by, such indemnifying party or indemnified party, and the indemnifying party’s and indemnified party’s relative intent, knowledge, access to information and opportunity to correct or prevent such action and the benefits received by the such indemnifying party or indemnified party; provided, however, that the liability of any Holder under this subsection 4.1.5 shall be limited to the amount of the net proceeds received by such Holder from the sale of Registrable Securities in such offering giving rise to such liability. The amount paid or payable by a party as a result of the losses or other liabilities referred to above shall be deemed to include, subject to the limitations set forth in subsections 4.1.1, 4.1.2 and 4.1.3 above, any legal or other fees, charges or expenses reasonably incurred

by such party in connection with any investigation or proceeding. The parties hereto agree that it would not be just and equitable if contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 were determined by Pro Rata allocation or by any other method of allocation, which does not take account of the equitable considerations referred to in this subsection 4.1.5. No person guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution pursuant to this subsection 4.1.5 from any person who was not guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation.

5.7     Term.

PART II. INFORMATION NOT REQUIRED IN PROSPECTUS

Item 20.     Indemnification of Directors and Officers

The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that its directors, officers, employees and agents are entitled to be indemnified by the Registrant to the fullest extent permitted by Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”). Section 145 of the DGCL concerning indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents is set forth below.

Section 145. Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents; insurance.

(a)     A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative (other than an action by or in the right of the corporation) by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with such action, suit or proceeding if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the person’s conduct was unlawful. The termination of any action, suit or proceeding by judgment, order, settlement, conviction, or upon a plea of nolo contendere or its equivalent, shall not, of itself, create a presumption that the person did not act in good faith and in a manner which the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had reasonable cause to believe that the person’s conduct was unlawful.

(b)    A corporation shall have power to indemnify any person who was or is a party or is threatened to be made a party to any threatened, pending or completed action or suit by or in the right of the corporation to procure a judgment in its favor by reason of the fact that the person is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the defense or settlement of such action or suit if the person acted in good faith and in a manner the person reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the corporation and except that no indemnification shall be made in respect of any claim, issue or matter as to which such person shall have been adjudged to be liable to the corporation unless and only to the extent that the Court of Chancery or the court in which such action or suit was brought shall determine upon application that, despite the adjudication of liability but in view of all the circumstances of the case, such person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity for such expenses which the Court of Chancery or such other court shall deem proper.

(c)     To the extent that a present or former director or officer of a corporation has been successful on the merits or otherwise in defense of any action, suit or proceeding referred to in subsections (a) and (b) of this section, or in defense of any claim, issue or matter therein, such person shall be indemnified against expenses (including attorneys’ fees) actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection therewith.

(d)    Any indemnification under subsections (a) and (b) of this section (unless ordered by a court) shall be made by the corporation only as authorized in the specific case upon a determination that indemnification of the present or former director, officer, employee or agent is proper in the circumstances because the person has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in subsections (a) and (b) of this section. Such determination shall be made, with respect to a person who is a director or officer at the time of such determination, (1) by a majority vote of the directors who are not parties to such action, suit or proceeding, even though less than a quorum, or (2) by a committee of such directors designated by majority vote of such directors, even though less than a quorum, or (3) if there are no such directors, or if such directors so direct, by independent legal counsel in a written opinion, or (4) by the stockholders.

II-1

Table of Contents

(e)     Expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an officer or director in defending any civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding may be paid by the corporation in advance of the final disposition of such action, suit or proceeding upon receipt of an undertaking by or on behalf of such director or officer to repay such amount if it shall ultimately be determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified by the corporation as authorized in this section. Such expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by former officers and directors or other employees and agents may be so paid upon such terms and conditions, if any, as the corporation deems appropriate.

(f)     The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, the other subsections of this section shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification or advancement of expenses may be entitled under any bylaw, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise, both as to action in such person’s official capacity and as to action in another capacity while holding such office. A right to indemnification or to advancement of expenses arising under a provision of the certificate of incorporation or a bylaw shall not be eliminated or impaired by an amendment to such provision after the occurrence of the act or omission that is the subject of the civil, criminal, administrative or investigative action, suit or proceeding for which indemnification or advancement of expenses is sought, unless the provision in effect at the time of such act or omission explicitly authorizes such elimination or impairment after such action or omission has occurred.

(g)    A corporation shall have power to purchase and maintain insurance on behalf of any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any liability asserted against such person and incurred by such person in any such capacity, or arising out of such person’s status as such, whether or not the corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such liability under this section.

(h)    For purposes of this section, references to “the corporation” shall include, in addition to the resulting corporation, any constituent corporation (including any constituent of a constituent) absorbed in a consolidation or merger which, if its separate existence had continued, would have had power and authority to indemnify its directors, officers, and employees or agents, so that any person who is or was a director, officer, employee or agent of such constituent corporation, or is or was serving at the request of such constituent corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, shall stand in the same position under this section with respect to the resulting or surviving corporation as such person would have with respect to such constituent corporation if its separate existence had continued.

(i)     For purposes of this section, references to “other enterprises” shall include employee benefit plans; references to “fines” shall include any excise taxes assessed on a person with respect to any employee benefit plan; and references to “serving at the request of the corporation” shall include any service as a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation which imposes duties on, or involves services by, such director, officer, employee or agent with respect to an employee benefit plan, its participants or beneficiaries; and a person who acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in the interest of the participants and beneficiaries of an employee benefit plan shall be deemed to have acted in a manner “not opposed to the best interests of the corporation” as referred to in this section.

(j)     The indemnification and advancement of expenses provided by, or granted pursuant to, this section shall, unless otherwise provided when authorized or ratified, continue as to a person who has ceased to be a director, officer, employee or agent and shall inure to the benefit of the heirs, executors and administrators of such a person.

(k)    The Court of Chancery is hereby vested with exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine all actions for advancement of expenses or indemnification brought under this section or under any by law, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. The Court of Chancery may summarily determine a corporation’s obligation to advance expenses (including attorneys’ fees).

II-2

Table of Contents

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to the Registrant’s directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to the court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

In accordance with Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL, the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, provides that no director shall be personally liable to the Registrant or any of its stockholders for monetary damages resulting from breaches of their fiduciary duty as directors, except to the extent such limitation on or exemption from liability is not permitted under the DGCL. The effect of this provision on the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation is to eliminate the Registrant’s rights and those of the stockholders (through stockholders’ derivative suits on the Registrant’s behalf) to recover monetary damages against a director for breach of the fiduciary duty of care as a director, including breaches resulting from negligent or grossly negligent behavior, except, as restricted by Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL. However, this provision does not limit or eliminate the Registrant’s rights or the rights of any stockholder to seek non-monetary relief, such as an injunction or rescission, in the event of a breach of a director’s duty of care.

If the DGCL is amended to authorize corporate action further eliminating or limiting the liability of directors, then, in accordance with the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the liability of the Registrant’s directors to it or its stockholders will be eliminated or limited to the fullest extent authorized by the DGCL, as so amended. Any repeal or amendment of provisions of the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation limiting or eliminating the liability of directors, whether by its stockholders or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits the Registrant to further limit or eliminate the liability of directors on a retroactive basis.

The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation provides that it will, to the fullest extent authorized or permitted by applicable law, indemnify its current and former officers and directors, as well as those persons who, while directors or officers of its corporation, are or were serving as directors, officers, employees or agents of another entity, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to an employee benefit plan, in connection with any threatened, pending or completed proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative or investigative, against all expense, liability and loss (including, without limitation, attorney’s fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by any such person in connection with any such proceeding.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, a person eligible for indemnification pursuant to the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation will be indemnified by the Registrant in connection with a proceeding initiated by such person only if such proceeding was authorized by the Registrant’s board of directors, except for proceedings to enforce rights to indemnification.

The right to indemnification which is conferred by the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation is a contract right that includes the right to be paid by the Registrant the expenses incurred in defending or otherwise participating in any proceeding referenced above in advance of its final disposition, provided, however, that if the DGCL requires, an advancement of expenses incurred by the Registrant’s officer or director (solely in the capacity as an officer or director of its corporation) will be made only upon delivery to the Registrant of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such officer or director, to repay all amounts so advanced if it is ultimately determined that such person is not entitled to be indemnified for such expenses under the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation or otherwise.

The rights to indemnification and advancement of expenses will not be deemed exclusive of any other rights which any person covered by the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation may have or hereafter acquire under law, the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, the Registrant’s bylaws, an agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise.

Any repeal or amendment of provisions of the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation affecting indemnification rights, whether by the Registrant’s stockholders or by changes in law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such

II-3

Table of Contents

amendment or change in law permits the Registrant to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis, and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing at the time of such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision. The Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation permits it, to the extent and in the manner authorized or permitted by law, to indemnify and to advance expenses to persons other that those specifically covered by the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation.

The Registrant’s bylaws include provisions relating to the advancement of expenses and indemnification rights consistent with those set forth in the Registrant’s amended and restated certificate of incorporation. In addition, the Registrant’s bylaws provide for a right of indemnity to bring a suit in the event a claim for indemnification or advancement of expenses is not paid in full by the Registrant within a specified period of time. The Registrant’s bylaws also permit it to purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect the Registrant and/or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Registrant’s corporation or another entity, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Registrant would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

Any repeal or amendment of provisions of the Registrant’s bylaws affecting indemnification rights, whether by the Registrant’s board of directors, stockholders or by changes in applicable law, or the adoption of any other provisions inconsistent therewith, will (unless otherwise required by law) be prospective only, except to the extent such amendment or change in law permits the Registrant to provide broader indemnification rights on a retroactive basis, and will not in any way diminish or adversely affect any right or protection existing thereunder with respect to any act or omission occurring prior to such repeal or amendment or adoption of such inconsistent provision.

The Registrant has entered into indemnification agreements with each of its officers and directors. These agreements require the Registrant to indemnify these individuals to the fullest extent permitted under Delaware law against liabilities that may arise by reason of their service to the Registrant, and to advance expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

Item 22.     Undertakings

The undersigned Registrant hereby undertakes:

(1)    To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement:

(i)     To include any prospectus required by section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii)    To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of this Registration Statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in this Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in this Registration Statement or any material change to such information in this Registration Statement.

(2)    That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(3)    To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(4)    That, for the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A, shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(5)    That, for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this Registration Statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)     Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)    Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii)   The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and (iv) Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

II-6

Table of Contents

(6)    That, prior to any public reoffering of the securities registered hereunder through use of a prospectus which is a part of this Registration Statement, by any person or party who is deemed to be an underwriter within the meaning of Rule 145(c), the Registrant undertakes that such reoffering prospectus will contain the information called for by the applicable registration form with respect to reofferings by persons who may be deemed underwriters, in addition to the information called for by the other items of the applicable form.

(7)    That every prospectus: (i) that is filed pursuant to the immediately preceding paragraph, or (ii) that purports to meet the requirements of Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933 and is used in connection with an offering of securities subject to Rule 415, will be filed as a part of an amendment to the registration statement and will not be used until such amendment is effective, and that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(8)    To respond to requests for information that is incorporated by reference into the prospectus pursuant to Item 4, 10(b), 11 or 13 of this Form S-4, within one business day of receipt of such request, and to send the incorporated documents by first class mail or other equally prompt means. This includes information contained in documents filed subsequent to the effective date of this Registration Statement through the date of responding to the request.

(9)    To supply by means of a post-effective amendment all information concerning this transaction, and the company being acquired involved therein, that was not the subject of and included in this Registration Statement when it became effective.

(10)  Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the Registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

AMENDED AND RESTATED BYLAWS

 

As adopted on __________, 2021
(Effective as of ________, 2021)

 

ARTICLE I: STOCKHOLDERS

 

Section 1.1: Annual Meetings. An annual meeting of stockholders shall be held for the election of directors at such date and time as the Board of Directors (the “Board”) of Momentus Inc. (the “Corporation”) shall each year fix. The meeting may be held either at a place, within or without the State of Delaware as permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”), or by means of remote communication as the Board in its sole discretion may determine. Any proper business may be transacted at the annual meeting.

 

Section 1.2: Special Meetings. Special meetings of stockholders for any purpose or purposes shall be called in the manner set forth in the Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Corporation (as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the “Certificate of Incorporation”). The special meeting may be held either at a place, within or without the State of Delaware, or by means of remote communication as the Board in its sole discretion may determine. Business transacted at any special meeting of stockholders shall be limited to matters relating to the purpose or purposes stated in the notice of the meeting.

 

Section 1.3: Notice of Meetings. Notice of all meetings of stockholders shall be given in writing or by electronic transmission in the manner provided by applicable law (including, without limitation, as set forth in Section 7.1.1 of these Bylaws) stating the date, time and place, if any, of the meeting, the means of remote communication, if any, by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such meeting, and the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting. In the case of a special meeting, such notice shall also set forth the purpose or purposes for which the meeting is called. Unless otherwise required by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, notice of any meeting of stockholders shall be given not less than ten (10), nor more than sixty (60), days before the date of the meeting to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at such meeting.

 

Section 1.4: Adjournments. The chairperson of the meeting shall have the power to adjourn the meeting to another time, date and place (if any). Any meeting of stockholders, annual or special, may be adjourned from time to time, and notice need not be given of any such adjourned meeting if the time, date and place (if any) thereof and the means of remote communication (if any) by which stockholders and proxy holders may be deemed to be present in person and vote at such adjourned meeting are announced at the meeting at which the adjournment is taken; provided, however, that if the adjournment is for more than thirty (30) days, a notice of the adjourned meeting shall be given to each stockholder of record entitled to vote at the meeting. At the adjourned meeting the Corporation may transact any business that might have been transacted at the original meeting. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the Board may postpone, reschedule or cancel any previously scheduled special or annual meeting of the stockholders before it is to be held, regardless of whether any notice or public disclosure with respect to any such meeting has been sent or made pursuant to Section 1.3 hereof or otherwise, in which case notice shall be provided to the stockholders of the new date, time and place, if any, of the meeting as provided in Section 1.3 above.

Section 1.5: Quorum. Except as otherwise provided by applicable law, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, at each meeting of stockholders the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at the meeting, present in person or represented by proxy, shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business; provided, however, that where a separate vote by a class or classes or series of stock is required by applicable law or the Certificate of Incorporation, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of such class or classes or series of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote on such matter, present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting, shall constitute a quorum entitled to take action with respect to the vote on such matter. If a quorum shall fail to attend any meeting, the chairperson of the meeting or, if directed to be voted on by the chairperson of the meeting, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares entitled to vote who are present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting may adjourn the meeting. Shares of the Corporation’s stock belonging to the Corporation (or to another corporation, if a majority of the shares entitled to vote in the election of directors of such other corporation are held, directly or indirectly, by the Corporation), shall neither be entitled to vote nor be counted for quorum purposes; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not limit the right of the Corporation or any other corporation to vote any shares of the Corporation’s stock held by it in a fiduciary capacity and to count such shares for purposes of determining a quorum. A quorum, once established at a meeting, shall not be broken by the withdrawal of enough votes to leave less than a quorum.

 

Section 1.6: Organization. Meetings of stockholders shall be presided over by (a) such person as the Board may designate, or (b) in such person’s absence, the Chairperson of the Board, or (c) in such person’s absence, the Lead Independent Director, or, (d) in such person’s absence, the Chief Executive Officer of the Corporation, or (e) in such person’s absence, the President of the Corporation, or (f) in such person’s absence, by a Vice President. Such person shall be chairperson of the meeting and, subject to Section 1.10 of these Bylaws, shall determine the order of business and the procedure at the meeting, including such regulation of the manner of voting and the conduct of discussion as seems to such person to be in order. The Secretary of the Corporation shall act as secretary of the meeting, but in such person’s absence the chairperson of the meeting may appoint any person to act as secretary of the meeting.

 

Section 1.7: Voting; Proxies. Each stockholder of record entitled to vote at a meeting of stockholders may authorize another person or persons to act for such stockholder by proxy. Such a proxy may be prepared, transmitted and delivered in any manner permitted by applicable law. Except as may be required in the Certificate of Incorporation, directors shall be elected by a plurality of the votes of the shares present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and entitled to vote on the election of directors. Unless otherwise provided by applicable law, rule or regulation applicable to the Corporation or its securities, the rules or regulations of any stock exchange applicable to the Corporation, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, every matter other than the election of directors shall be decided by the affirmative vote of the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock entitled to vote on such matter that are present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting and are voted for or against the matter (or if there are two or more classes or series of stock entitled to vote as separate classes, then in the case of each class or series, the holders of a majority of the voting power of the shares of stock of that class or series present in person or represented by proxy at the meeting voting for or against such matter).

Section 1.8: Fixing Date for Determination of Stockholders of Record. In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at any meeting of stockholders or any adjournment thereof, the Board may fix a record date, which record date shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board, and which record date shall, unless otherwise required by law, not be more than sixty (60), nor less than ten (10), days before the date of such meeting. If no record date is fixed by the Board, the record date for determining stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall be at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which notice is given, or, if notice is waived, at the close of business on the day next preceding the day on which the meeting is held. A determination of stockholders of record entitled to notice of or to vote at a meeting of stockholders shall apply to any adjournment of the meeting; provided, however, that the Board may fix a new record date for determination of stockholders entitled to notice of or to vote at the adjourned meeting.

 

In order that the Corporation may determine the stockholders entitled to receive payment of any dividend or other distribution or allotment of any rights, or entitled to exercise any rights in respect of any change, conversion or exchange of stock or for the purpose of any other lawful action, the Board may fix, in advance, a record date, which shall not precede the date upon which the resolution fixing the record date is adopted by the Board and which shall not be more than sixty (60) days prior to such action. If no such record date is fixed by the Board, then the record date for determining stockholders for any such purpose shall be at the close of business on the day on which the Board adopts the resolution relating thereto.

 

Section 1.9:   List of Stockholders Entitled to Vote. The Secretary shall prepare, at least ten (10) days before every meeting of stockholders, a complete list of stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting (provided, however, if the record date for determining the stockholders entitled to vote is less than ten (10) days before the date of the meeting, the list shall reflect the stockholders entitled to vote as of the tenth (10th) day before the meeting date), arranged in alphabetical order and showing the address of each stockholder and the number of shares registered in the name of each stockholder. Such list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder, for any purpose germane to the meeting, for a period of at least ten (10) days prior to the meeting, (a) on a reasonably accessible electronic network as permitted by applicable law (provided, that the information required to gain access to the list is provided with the notice of the meeting), or (b) during ordinary business hours, at the principal place of business of the Corporation. If the meeting is held at a location where stockholders may attend in person, the list shall also be produced and kept at the time and place of the meeting during the whole time thereof and may be inspected by any stockholder who is present at the meeting. If the meeting is held solely by means of remote communication, then the list shall be open to the examination of any stockholder during the whole time of the meeting on a reasonably accessible electronic network, and the information required to access the list shall be provided with the notice of the meeting. Except as otherwise provided by law, the list shall presumptively determine the identity of the stockholders entitled to vote at the meeting and the number of shares held by each of them.

 

Section 1.10:  Inspectors of Elections. 

 

1.10.1 Applicability. Unless otherwise required by the Certificate of Incorporation or by the DGCL, the following provisions of this Section 1.10 shall apply only if and when the Corporation has a class of voting stock that is: (a) listed on a national securities exchange; (b) authorized for quotation on an interdealer quotation system of a registered national securities association; or (c) held of record by more than two thousand (2,000) stockholders. In all other cases, observance of the provisions of this Section 1.10 shall be optional, and at the discretion of the Board.

 

3

 

 

1.10.2 Appointment. The Corporation shall, in advance of any meeting of stockholders, appoint one or more inspectors of election to act at the meeting and make a written report thereof. The Corporation may designate one or more persons as alternate inspectors to replace any inspector who fails to act. If no inspector or alternate is able to act at a meeting of stockholders, the person presiding at the meeting shall appoint one or more inspectors to act at the meeting.

 

1.10.3 Inspector’s Oath. Each inspector of election, before entering upon the discharge of such inspector’s duties, shall take and sign an oath faithfully to execute the duties of inspector with strict impartiality and according to the best of such inspector’s ability.

 

1.10.4 Duties of Inspectors. At a meeting of stockholders, the inspectors of election shall (a) ascertain the number of shares outstanding and the voting power of each share, (b) determine the shares represented at a meeting and the validity of proxies and ballots, (c) count all votes and ballots, (d) determine and retain for a reasonable period of time a record of the disposition of any challenges made to any determination by the inspectors, and (e) certify their determination of the number of shares represented at the meeting, and their count of all votes and ballots. The inspectors may appoint or retain other persons or entities to assist the inspectors in the performance of the duties of the inspectors.

 

1.10.5 Opening and Closing of Polls. The date and time of the opening and the closing of the polls for each matter upon which the stockholders will vote at a meeting shall be announced by the chairperson of the meeting at the meeting. No ballot, proxies or votes, nor any revocations thereof or changes thereto, shall be accepted by the inspectors after the closing of the polls unless the Court of Chancery of the State of Delaware, upon application by a stockholder, shall determine otherwise.

 

1.10.6 Determinations. In determining the validity and counting of proxies and ballots, the inspectors shall be limited to an examination of the proxies, any envelopes submitted with those proxies, any information provided in connection with proxies pursuant to Section 211(a)(2)b.(i) of the DGCL, or in accordance with Sections 211(e) or 212(c)(2) of the DGCL, ballots and the regular books and records of the Corporation, except that the inspectors may consider other reliable information for the limited purpose of reconciling proxies and ballots submitted by or on behalf of banks, brokers, their nominees or similar persons which represent more votes than the holder of a proxy is authorized by the record owner to cast or more votes than the stockholder holds of record. If the inspectors consider other reliable information for the limited purpose permitted herein, the inspectors at the time they make their certification of their determinations pursuant to this Section 1.10 shall specify the precise information considered by them, including the person or persons from whom they obtained the information, when the information was obtained, the means by which the information was obtained and the basis for the inspectors’ belief that such information is accurate and reliable.

Section 1.11:  Notice of Stockholder Business; Nominations.

 

1.11.1 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

 

(a) Nominations of persons for election to the Board and the proposal of other business to be considered by the stockholders may be made at an annual meeting of stockholders only: (i) pursuant to the Corporation’s notice of such meeting (or any supplement thereto), (ii) by or at the direction of the Board or any committee thereof or (iii) by any stockholder of the Corporation who was a stockholder of record at the time of giving of the notice provided for in this Section 1.11 (the “Record Stockholder”), who is entitled to vote at such meeting and who complies with the notice and other procedures set forth in this Section 1.11 in all applicable respects. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing clause (iii) shall be the exclusive means for a stockholder to make nominations or propose business (other than business included in the Corporation’s proxy materials pursuant to Rule 14a-8 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (such act, and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, the “Exchange Act”)), at an annual meeting of stockholders, and such stockholder must fully comply with the notice and other procedures set forth in this Section 1.11 to make such nominations or propose business before an annual meeting.

 

(b) For nominations or other business to be properly brought before an annual meeting by a Record Stockholder pursuant to Section 1.11.1(a) of these Bylaws:

 

(i) the Record Stockholder must have given timely notice thereof in writing to the Secretary of the Corporation and provide any updates or supplements to such notice at the times and in the forms required by this Section 1.11;

 

(ii) such other business (other than the nomination of persons for election to the Board) must otherwise be a proper matter for stockholder action;

 

(iii) if the Proposing Person (as defined below) has provided the Corporation with a Solicitation Notice (as defined below), such Proposing Person must, in the case of a proposal other than the nomination of persons for election to the Board, have delivered a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of at least the percentage of the Corporation’s voting shares required under applicable law to carry any such proposal, or, in the case of a nomination or nominations, have delivered a proxy statement and form of proxy to holders of a percentage of the Corporation’s voting shares reasonably believed by such Proposing Person to be sufficient to elect the nominee or nominees proposed to be nominated by such Record Stockholder, and must, in either case, have included in such materials the Solicitation Notice; and

 

(iv) if no Solicitation Notice relating thereto has been timely provided pursuant to this Section 1.11, the Proposing Person proposing such business or nomination must not have solicited a number of proxies sufficient to have required the delivery of such a Solicitation Notice under this Section 1.11.

 

To be timely, a Record Stockholder’s notice must be delivered to the Secretary at the principal executive offices of the Corporation not later than the close of business on the ninetieth (90th) day nor earlier than the close of business on the one hundred and twentieth (120th) day prior to the first anniversary of the preceding year’s annual meeting); provided, however, that in the event that no annual meeting was held during the preceding year or the date of the annual meeting is more than thirty (30) days before, or more than sixty (60) days after, such anniversary date, notice by the Record Stockholder to be timely must be so delivered (A) no earlier than the close of business on the one hundred and twentieth (120th) day prior to such annual meeting and (B) no later than the close of business on the later of the ninetieth (90th) day prior to such annual meeting or the close of business on the tenth (10th) day following the day on which Public Announcement (as defined below) of the date of such meeting is first made by the Corporation. In no event shall an adjournment or postponement of an annual meeting for which notice has been given commence a new time period (or extend any time period) for providing the Record Stockholder’s notice. Such Record Stockholder’s notice shall set forth:

 

5

 

 

(X) as to each person whom the Record Stockholder proposes to nominate for election or reelection as a director:

 

(i) the name, age, business address and residence address of such person;

 

(ii) the principal occupation or employment of such nominee;

Each person who was or is made a party to, or is threatened to be made a party to, or is involved in any threatened, pending or completed action, suit or proceeding, whether civil, criminal, administrative, legislative or any other type whatsoever (a “Proceeding”), by reason of the fact that such person (or a person of whom such person is the legal representative), is or was a director or officer of the Corporation or, while serving as a director or officer of the Corporation, is or was serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another corporation, or of a partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including service with respect to employee benefit plans (for purposes of this Article VI, an “Indemnitee”), shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Corporation to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL as the same exists or may hereafter be amended (but, in the case of any such amendment, only to the extent that such amendment permits the Corporation to provide broader indemnification rights than such law permitted the Corporation to provide prior to such amendment), against all expenses, liability and loss (including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, ERISA excise taxes and penalties and amounts paid or to be paid in settlement) reasonably incurred or suffered by such Indemnitee in connection therewith, provided such Indemnitee acted in good faith and in a manner that the Indemnitee reasonably believed to be in or not opposed to the best interests of the Corporation, and, with respect to any criminal action or Proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the Indemnitee’s conduct was unlawful. Such indemnification shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director or officer of the Corporation and shall inure to the benefit of such Indemnitees’ heirs, executors and administrators. Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 6.5 of these Bylaws, the Corporation shall indemnify any such Indemnitee seeking indemnity in connection with a Proceeding (or part thereof) initiated by such Indemnitee only if such Proceeding (or part thereof) was authorized by the Board or such indemnification is authorized by an agreement approved by the Board.

 

Section 6.2: Advance of Expenses. Except as otherwise provided in a written indemnification contract between the Corporation and an Indemnitee, the Corporation shall pay all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) incurred by an Indemnitee in defending any Proceeding in advance of its final disposition; provided, however, that if the DGCL then so requires, the advancement of such expenses shall be made only upon delivery to the Corporation of an undertaking, by or on behalf of such Indemnitee, to repay such amounts if it shall ultimately be determined that such Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified under this Article VI or otherwise.

 

Section 6.3: Non-Exclusivity of Rights. The rights conferred on any person in this Article VI shall not be exclusive of any other right that such person may have or hereafter acquire under any statute, provision of the Certificate of Incorporation, Bylaws, agreement, vote or consent of stockholders or disinterested directors, or otherwise. Additionally, nothing in this Article VI shall limit the ability of the Corporation, in its discretion, to indemnify or advance expenses to persons whom the Corporation is not obligated to indemnify or advance expenses pursuant to this Article VI.

 

Section 6.4: Indemnification Contracts. The Board is authorized to cause the Corporation to enter into indemnification contracts with any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation, or any person serving at the request of the Corporation as a director, officer, employee, agent or trustee of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise, including employee benefit plans, providing indemnification or advancement rights to such person. Such rights may be greater than those provided in this Article VI.

Section 6.5: Right of Indemnitee to Bring Suit. The following shall apply to the extent not in conflict with any indemnification contract provided for in Section 6.4 of these Bylaws.

 

6.5.1 Right to Bring Suit. If a claim under Section 6.1 or 6.2 of these Bylaws is not paid in full by the Corporation within sixty (60) days after a written claim has been received by the Corporation, except in the case of a claim for an advancement of expenses, in which case the applicable period shall be twenty (20) days, the Indemnitee may at any time thereafter bring suit against the Corporation to recover the unpaid amount of the claim. If successful in whole or in part in any such suit, or in a suit brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the Indemnitee shall be entitled to be paid, to the fullest extent permitted by law, the expense of prosecuting or defending such suit. In any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification hereunder (but not in a suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to an advancement of expenses) it shall be a defense that the Indemnitee has not met any applicable standard of conduct which makes it permissible under the DGCL (or other applicable law) for the Corporation to indemnify the Indemnitee for the amount claimed.

 

6.5.2 Effect of Determination. Neither the absence of a determination prior to the commencement of such suit that indemnification of the Indemnitee is proper in the circumstances because the Indemnitee has met the applicable standard of conduct set forth in applicable law, nor an actual determination that the Indemnitee has not met such applicable standard of conduct, shall create a presumption that the Indemnitee has not met the applicable standard of conduct or, in the case of such a suit brought by the Indemnitee, be a defense to such suit.

 

6.5.3 Burden of Proof. In any suit brought by the Indemnitee to enforce a right to indemnification or to an advancement of expenses hereunder, or brought by the Corporation to recover an advancement of expenses pursuant to the terms of an undertaking, the burden of proving that the Indemnitee is not entitled to be indemnified, or to such advancement of expenses, under this Article VI, or otherwise, shall be on the Corporation.

 

Section 6.6: Nature of Rights. The rights conferred upon Indemnitees in this Article VI shall be contract rights and such rights shall continue as to an Indemnitee who has ceased to be a director, officer or trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Indemnitee’s heirs, executors and administrators. Any amendment, repeal or modification of any provision of this Article VI that adversely affects any right of an Indemnitee or an Indemnitee’s successors shall be prospective only, and shall not adversely affect any right or protection conferred on a person pursuant to this Article VI with respect to any Proceeding involving any occurrence or alleged occurrence of any action or omission to act that took place prior to such amendment, repeal or modification.

 

Section 6.7: Insurance. The Corporation may purchase and maintain insurance, at its expense, to protect itself and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Corporation or another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise against any expense, liability or loss, whether or not the Corporation would have the power to indemnify such person against such expense, liability or loss under the DGCL.

ARTICLE VII: NOTICES

 

Section 7.1: Notice. 

 

7.1.1 Form and Delivery. Except as otherwise specifically required in these Bylaws (including, without limitation, Section 7.1.2 of these Bylaws) or by applicable law, all notices required to be given pursuant to these Bylaws shall be in writing and may (a) in every instance in connection with any delivery to a member of the Board, be effectively given by hand delivery (including use of a delivery service), by depositing such notice in the mail, postage prepaid, or by sending such notice by overnight express courier, facsimile, electronic mail or other form of electronic transmission and (b) be effectively delivered to a stockholder when given by hand delivery, by depositing such notice in the mail, postage prepaid or, if specifically consented to by the stockholder as described in Section 7.1.2 of these Bylaws by sending such notice by facsimile, electronic mail or other form of electronic transmission. Any such notice shall be addressed to the person to whom notice is to be given at such person’s address as it appears on the records of the Corporation. The notice shall be deemed given: (a) in the case of hand delivery, when received by the person to whom notice is to be given or by any person accepting such notice on behalf of such person; (b) in the case of delivery by mail, upon deposit in the mail; (c) in the case of delivery by overnight express courier, when dispatched; and (d) in the case of delivery via facsimile, electronic mail or other form of electronic transmission, at the time provided in Section 7.1.2 of these Bylaws.

 

7.1.2 Electronic Transmission. Without limiting the manner by which notice otherwise may be given effectively to stockholders, any notice to stockholders given by the Corporation under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation, or these Bylaws shall be effective if given by a form of electronic transmission consented to by the stockholder to whom the notice is given in accordance with Section 232 of the DGCL. Any such consent shall be revocable by the stockholder by written notice to the Corporation. Any such consent shall be deemed revoked if (a) the Corporation is unable to deliver by electronic transmission two consecutive notices given by the Corporation in accordance with such consent and (b) such inability becomes known to the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary of the Corporation or to the transfer agent, or other person responsible for the giving of notice; provided, however, that the inadvertent failure to treat such inability as a revocation shall not invalidate any meeting or other action. Notice given pursuant to this Section 7.1.2 shall be deemed given: (i) if by facsimile telecommunication, when directed to a number at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice; (ii) if by electronic mail, when directed to an electronic mail address at which the stockholder has consented to receive notice; (iii) if by a posting on an electronic network together with separate notice to the stockholder of such specific posting, upon the later of such posting and the giving of such separate notice; and (iv) if by any other form of electronic transmission, when directed to the stockholder.

 

7.1.3 Affidavit of Giving Notice. An affidavit of the Secretary or an Assistant Secretary or of the transfer agent or other agent of the Corporation that the notice has been given in writing or by a form of electronic transmission shall, in the absence of fraud, be prima facie evidence of the facts stated therein.

 

Section 7.2: Waiver of Notice. Whenever notice is required to be given under any provision of the DGCL, the Certificate of Incorporation or these Bylaws, a written waiver of notice, signed by the person entitled to notice, or waiver by electronic transmission by such person, whether before or after the time stated therein, shall be deemed equivalent to notice. Attendance of a person at a meeting shall constitute a waiver of notice of such meeting, except when the person attends a meeting for the express purpose of objecting at the beginning of the meeting to the transaction of any business because the meeting is not lawfully called or convened. Neither the business to be transacted at, nor the purpose of, any regular or special meeting of the stockholders, directors or members of a committee of directors need be specified in any waiver of notice.

ARTICLE VIII: INTERESTED DIRECTORS

 

Section 8.1: Interested Directors. No contract or transaction between the Corporation and one or more of its members of the Board or officers, or between the Corporation and any other corporation, partnership, association or other organization in which one or more of its directors or officers are members of the board of directors or officers, or have a financial interest, shall be void or voidable solely for this reason, or solely because the director or officer is present at or participates in the meeting of the Board or committee thereof that authorizes the contract or transaction, or solely because such director’s or officer’s votes are counted for such purpose, if: (a) the material facts as to such director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the Board or the committee, and the Board or committee in good faith authorizes the contract or transaction by the affirmative votes of a majority of the disinterested directors, even though the disinterested directors be less than a quorum; (b) the material facts as to such director’s or officer’s relationship or interest and as to the contract or transaction are disclosed or are known to the stockholders entitled to vote thereon, and the contract or transaction is specifically approved in good faith by vote of the stockholders; or (c) the contract or transaction is fair as to the Corporation as of the time it is authorized, approved or ratified by the Board, a committee thereof, or the stockholders.

 

Section 8.2: Quorum. Interested directors may be counted in determining the presence of a quorum at a meeting of the Board or of a committee which authorizes the contract or transaction.

 

ARTICLE IX: MISCELLANEOUS

 

Section 9.1: Fiscal Year. The fiscal year of the Corporation shall be determined by resolution of the Board.

 

Section 9.2: Seal. The Board may provide for a corporate seal, which may have the name of the Corporation inscribed thereon and shall otherwise be in such form as may be approved from time to time by the Board.

 

Section 9.3: Form of Records. Any records maintained by the Corporation in the regular course of its business, including its stock ledger, books of account and minute books, may be kept on or by means of, or be in the form of any other information storage device or method, electronic or otherwise, provided, that the records so kept can be converted into clearly legible paper form within a reasonable time. The Corporation shall so convert any records so kept upon the request of any person entitled to inspect such records pursuant to any provision of the DGCL.

 

Section 9.4: Reliance Upon Books and Records. A member of the Board, or a member of any committee designated by the Board shall, in the performance of such person’s duties, be fully protected in relying in good faith upon the books and records of the Corporation and upon such information, opinions, reports or statements presented to the Corporation by any of the Corporation’s officers or employees, or committees of the Board, or by any other person as to matters the member reasonably believes are within such other person’s professional or expert competence and who has been selected with reasonable care by or on behalf of the Corporation.

 

20

 

 

Section 9.5: Certificate of Incorporation Governs. In the event of any conflict between the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation and Bylaws, the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation shall govern.

 

Section 9.6: Severability. If any provision of these Bylaws shall be held to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable or in conflict with the provisions of the Certificate of Incorporation, then such provision shall nonetheless be enforced to the maximum extent possible consistent with such holding and the remaining provisions of these Bylaws (including without limitation, all portions of any section of these Bylaws containing any such provision held to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable or in conflict with the Certificate of Incorporation, that are not themselves invalid, illegal, unenforceable or in conflict with the Certificate of Incorporation) shall remain in full force and effect.

 

Section 9.7: Time Periods. In applying any provision of these Bylaws which requires that an act be done or not be done a specified number of days prior to an event or that an act be done during a period of a specified number of days prior to an event, calendar days shall be used, the day of the doing of the act shall be excluded, and the day of the event shall be included.

 

ARTICLE X: AMENDMENT

 

Notwithstanding any other provision of these Bylaws, any alteration, amendment or repeal of these Bylaws, and any adoption of new Bylaws, shall require the approval of the Board or the stockholders of the Corporation as expressly provided in the Certificate of Incorporation.

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

We have acted as special legal counsel to Stable Road Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-4, initially filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on November 2, 2020, as amended and supplemented through the date hereof, pursuant to the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) (such Registration Statement, as amended or supplemented, is hereafter referred to as the “Registration Statement”), relating to the Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated October 7, 2020 (as it may be amended, supplemented or otherwise modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among the Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Momentus”), the Company, Project Marvel First Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“First Merger Sub”), and Project Marvel Second Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (“Second Merger Sub”), pursuant to which First Merger Sub will merge with and into Momentus, with Momentus being the surviving corporation of such merger, and immediately thereafter, the surviving corporation will merge with and into Second Merger Sub, with Second Merger Sub being the surviving company of such merger (such mergers, together with the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, the “Business Combination”).

 

The aggregate merger consideration payable to the holders of Momentus outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity interests (including convertible securities) will be paid in shares of newly issued Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the “Class A common stock”) (or securities exercisable for Class A common stock) having a value equal to $1,131,000,000, minus Momentus’ indebtedness as of the closing of the Mergers (the “Closing”), plus the amount of Momentus’ cash and cash equivalents as of the Closing, plus the aggregate exercise price of all Momentus stock options and warrants outstanding as of immediately prior to the Closing. The Class A common stock issued (or reserved for issuance upon exercise of options or warrants) in connection with the Mergers will be based on a deemed value of $10.00 per share.

For purposes of this opinion, we have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity to the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the authenticity of the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies.

Subject to the assumptions, qualifications, exclusions and other limitations which are identified in this opinion, we advise you that upon (i) the effectiveness of the Business Combination, (ii) the adoption of the Bylaws by the board of directors of the Company, (iii) the filing of the Certificate of Incorporation with the Delaware Secretary of State, (iv) in the case of stock options and warrants, the issuance of shares of Class A common stock in accordance with the terms of the award agreement, warrant agreement and/or equity plan, as applicable, and (v) the effectiveness of the Registration Statement under the Act, the shares of Class A common stock to be issued in connection with the Business Combination in exchange for Momentus’ outstanding shares of capital stock and other equity interests will be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable.

 

In addition, in rendering the foregoing opinions we have assumed that:

 

(a) the Company (i) is duly incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing, (ii) has requisite legal status and legal capacity under the laws of the State of Delaware and (iii) has complied and will comply with all aspects of the laws of the State of Delaware in connection with the transactions contemplated by, and the performance of its obligations under, the Merger Agreement;

 

(b) the Company has the corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform all its obligations under the Merger Agreement;

 

(c) neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Merger Agreement nor the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder: (i) constitutes or will constitute a violation of, or a default under, any lease, indenture, instrument or other agreement to which the Company or its property is subject, (ii) contravenes or will contravene any order or decree of any governmental authority to which the Company or its property is subject, or (iii) violates or will violate any law, rule or regulation to which the Company or its property is subject (except that we do not make the assumption set forth in this clause (iii) with respect to the laws of the State of New York or the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”));

 

(d) neither the execution and delivery by the Company of the Merger Agreement nor the performance by the Company of its obligations thereunder requires or will require the consent, approval, licensing or authorization of, or any filing, recording or registration with, any governmental authority under any law, rule or regulation of any jurisdiction; and

 

(e) prior to effecting the Business Combination and prior to the issuance of securities by the Company, the stockholders of the Company will have approved, among other things, the Business Combination.

Our opinions expressed above are subject to the qualifications that we express no opinion as to the applicability of, compliance with, or effect of (i) any bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer, fraudulent conveyance, moratorium or other similar law or judicially developed doctrine in this area (such as substantive consolidation or equitable subordination) affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, (ii) general principles of equity (regardless of whether enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law), (iii) an implied covenant of good faith and fair dealing, (iv) public policy considerations which may limit the rights of parties to obtain certain remedies, and (v) any laws except the laws of the State of New York and the DGCL. We advise you that issues addressed by this letter may be governed in whole or in part by other laws, but we express no opinion as to whether any relevant difference exists between the laws upon which our opinions are based and any other laws which may actually govern. We do not find it necessary for the purposes of this opinion, and accordingly we do not purport to cover herein, the application of the securities or “Blue Sky” laws of the various states to the issuance of the Securities.

 

This opinion is limited to the specific issues addressed herein, and no opinion may be inferred or implied beyond that expressly stated herein.

We are U.S. tax counsel to Stable Road Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“SRAC”), in connection with the preparation and filing of the registration statement on Form S-4 on the date hereof (the “Registration Statement”) with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”), under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), by SRAC.

 

Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the same meanings attributed to such terms in the Registration Statement.

 

You have requested our opinion concerning the discussion set forth in the section entitled “Certain United States Federal Income Tax Considerations” in the Registration Statement. In providing this opinion, we have assumed (without any independent investigation or review thereof) that:

This opinion is based on current provisions of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the “Code”), the United States Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder, and the interpretation of the Code and such regulations by the courts and the Internal Revenue Service, as they are in effect and exist at the date of this opinion. It should be noted that statutes, regulations, judicial decisions and administrative interpretations are subject to change at any time and, in some circumstances, with retroactive effect. A material change that is made after the date hereof in any of the foregoing bases for our opinion, or any inaccuracy in the facts or assumptions on which we have relied, could adversely affect our conclusion. We assume no responsibility to inform you of any such change or inaccuracy that may occur or come to our attention. No opinion is expressed as to any transactions or any matter other than those specifically covered by this opinion.

1. Grant. The Company hereby grants to the individual (the “Participant”) named in the Notice of Restricted Stock Unit Grant (the “Notice of Grant”) an Award of Restricted Stock Units under the Momentus Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”), subject to all of the terms and conditions in the Notice of Grant, this Restricted Stock Unit Agreement (the “Award Agreement”) and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference.

3. Vesting Schedule. The Restricted Stock Units awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. [Restricted Stock Units scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs.] Service Provider status for purposes of this Award will end on the day that Participant is no longer actively providing services as an Employee, Director, or Independent Contractor and will not be extended by any notice period or “garden leave” that may be required contractually or under Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator (or any delegate) shall have the sole and absolute discretion to determine when Participant is no longer providing active service for purposes of Service Provider status and participation in the Plan.

4. Administrator Discretion. Notwithstanding anything in the Plan or this Award Agreement to the contrary, if the vesting of the balance, or some lesser portion of the balance, of the Restricted Stock Units is accelerated in connection with Participant’s termination as a Service Provider (provided that such termination is a “separation from service” within the meaning of Code Section 409A, as determined by the Company), other than due to death, and if (x) Participant is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Code Section 409A at the time of such termination as a Service Provider and (y) the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will result in the imposition of additional tax under Code Section 409A if paid to Participant on or within the six (6) month period following Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, then the payment of such accelerated Restricted Stock Units will not be made until the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Participant’s termination as a Service Provider, unless the Participant dies following his or her termination as a Service Provider, in which case, the Restricted Stock Units will be settled in Shares to the Participant’s estate as soon as practicable following his or her death. It is the intent of this Award Agreement that it and all payments and benefits hereunder be exempt from, or comply with, the requirements of Code Section 409A so that none of the Restricted Stock Units provided under this Award Agreement or Shares issuable thereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Code Section 409A, and any ambiguities herein will be interpreted to be so exempt or so comply. Each payment payable under this Award Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-2(b)(2). For purposes of this Award Agreement, “Code Section 409A” means Section 409A of the Code, and any final U.S. Treasury Regulations and U.S. Internal Revenue Service guidance thereunder, as each may be amended from time to time.

 

5. Forfeiture upon Termination of Status as a Service Provider. Except as otherwise provided in the Notice of Grant, any Restricted Stock Units that have not vested will be forfeited and will return to the Plan on the date that is thirty (30) days following the termination of Participant’s status as a Service Provider.

 

6. Death of Participant. Any distribution or delivery to be made to Participant under this Award Agreement will, if Participant is then deceased, be made to Participant’s designated beneficiary, if so allowed by the Administrator in its sole discretion, or if no beneficiary survives Participant, the administrator or executor of Participant’s estate. Any such transferee must furnish the Company with (a) written notice of his or her status as transferee, and (b) evidence satisfactory to the Company to establish the validity of the transfer and compliance with any Applicable Laws or regulations pertaining to said transfer.

 

7. Withholding of Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all applicable national, local, or other tax or social contribution, withholding, required deductions, or other payments, if any, that arise upon the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the holding or subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of dividends, if any, or otherwise in connection with the Restricted Stock Units or the Shares (“Tax-Related Items”), Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by Participant is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed any amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. Participant further acknowledges and agrees that Participant is solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required in relation to the Restricted Stock Units or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the specific obligation of the Company, an Affiliate or Employer pursuant to Applicable Laws) such as but not limited to personal income tax returns or reporting statements in relation to the grant, vesting or payment of the Restricted Stock Units, the holding of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of any dividends. Participant further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units, including the grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired under the Plan, and the receipt of dividends, if any; and (b) do not commit to and are under no obligation to structure the terms of the Restricted Stock Units or any aspect of the Restricted Stock Units to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items, or achieve any particular tax result. Participant also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying Share or Restricted Stock Unit valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax-Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax-Related Items that may be required of Participant under Applicable Laws. Further, if Participant has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Award Agreement, no certificate representing the Shares will be issued to Participant, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Administrator) will have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items which the Company determines must be withheld with respect to such Shares.

As a condition to the grant and vesting of the Restricted Stock Units and as set forth in Section 16 of the Plan, Participant hereby agrees to make adequate provision for the satisfaction of (and will indemnify the Company and any Affiliate for) any Tax-Related Items. In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company and/or the Employer or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following: (i) by receipt of a cash payment from Participant; (ii) by withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company or the Employer; (iii) withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to Participant upon payment of the vested Restricted Stock Units (provided that amounts withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Company’s minimum tax withholding obligations); (iv) by withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon payment of the vested Restricted Stock Units through a voluntary sale or a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization), or (v) by any other arrangement approved by the Committee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, Participant’s obligations with respect to all Tax-Related Items shall be satisfied by the Company withholding Shares that otherwise would be issued to Participant upon payment of the vested Restricted Stock Units; provided that amounts withheld shall not exceed the amount necessary to satisfy the Company’s minimum tax withholding obligations. Any Shares withheld pursuant to this Section 7 shall be valued based on the Fair Market Value as of the date the withholding obligations are satisfied. Furthermore, Participant agrees to pay the Company, any Affiliate or Employer any Tax-Related Items that cannot be satisfied by the foregoing methods.

 

8. Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares deliverable hereunder unless and until such Shares will have been issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). After such issuance, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares, but prior to such issuance, Participant will not have any rights to dividends and/or distributions on such Shares.

 

9. No Guarantee of Continued Service or Grants. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF THE RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF SHALL OCCUR ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE EMPLOYER OR CONTRACTING ENTITY (AS APPLICABLE) AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THIS AWARD OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE EMPLOYER OR THE COMPANY (OR ANY AFFILIATE) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE, SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAWS.

 

-3-

 

 

Participant also acknowledges and agrees that: (a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time; (b) the grant of Restricted Stock Units is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Restricted Stock Units, or benefits in lieu of Restricted Stock Units even if Restricted Stock Units have been granted repeatedly in the past; (c) all decisions with respect to future awards of Restricted Stock Units, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company; (d) Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary; (e) the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units are extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the Company or the Employer, and that are outside the scope of Participant’s employment contract, if any; (f) the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation; (g) the Restricted Stock Units and the Shares subject to the Restricted Stock Units are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, or end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or the Employer, subject to Applicable Laws.

 

10. Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Award Agreement will be addressed to the Company, in care of its Secretary at Momentus Inc., 3050 Kenneth Street, Santa Clara, California 95054, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.

 

11. Grant is Not Transferable. Except to the limited extent provided in Section 6, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby may not be transferred, assigned, pledged or hypothecated in any way (whether by operation of Applicable Laws or otherwise) and may not be subject to sale under execution, attachment or similar process. Upon any attempt to transfer, assign, pledge, hypothecate or otherwise dispose of this grant, or any right or privilege conferred hereby, or upon any attempted sale under any execution, attachment or similar process, this grant and the rights and privileges conferred hereby immediately will become null and void.

 

12. Binding Agreement. Subject to the limitation on the transferability of this grant contained herein, this Award Agreement will be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the heirs, legatees, legal representatives, successors and assigns of the parties hereto.

 

13. Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock and Imposition of Other Requirements. If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration, qualification or compliance of the Shares upon or with any securities exchange or under any Applicable Laws, the tax code and related regulations or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the issuance of Shares to Participant (or his or her estate) hereunder, such issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, compliance, consent or approval will have been completed, effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. Where the Company determines that the delivery of any Shares will violate any state, federal or foreign securities or exchange laws or other Applicable Laws, the Company will defer delivery until the earliest date at which the Company reasonably anticipates that the delivery of Shares will no longer cause such violation. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any Applicable Laws or securities exchange and to obtain any such consent or approval of any such governmental authority or securities exchange. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any Shares pursuant to the Restricted Stock Units at any time if the issuance of Shares violates or is not in compliance with any Applicable Laws.

 

-4-

 

 

Furthermore, the Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Restricted Stock Units and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with any Applicable Laws or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Furthermore, Participant understands that the Applicable Laws of the country in which he or she is resident at the time of grant or vesting of the Restricted Stock Units or the holding or disposition of Shares (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor or other matters) may restrict or prevent the issuance of Shares or may subject Participant to additional procedural or regulatory requirements he or she is solely responsible for and will have to independently fulfill in relation to the Restricted Stock Units or the Shares. [Notwithstanding any provision herein, the Restricted Stock Units and any Shares shall be subject to any special terms and conditions or disclosures as set forth in any addendum for Participant’s country (the “Country-Specific Addendum,” which forms part this Award Agreement)]. Participant also understands and agrees that if he or she works, resides, moves to, or otherwise is or becomes subject to Applicable Laws or company policies of another jurisdiction at any time, certain country-specific notices, disclaimers and/or terms and conditions may apply to him or her as from the date of grant, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

 

14. Lock-Up Agreement. If so requested by the Company in connection with a transaction pursuant to which the securities of the Company will be exchanged for securities of a company (or any successor or parent thereof) registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including, without limitation, through a transaction with a publicly-listed blank check company then registered under the Securities Act (a “SPAC Transaction”), Participant hereby agrees (i) not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and whenever acquired without the prior written consent of the Company for a period of 180 days from the date of the consummation of the transaction in which the securities of the Company became a Listed Security (as defined below), and (ii) to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing. For purposes of this Section, “Listed Security” means any security of the Company that is listed or approved for listing on a national securities exchange (including, without limitation, pursuant to a SPAC Transaction) or designated or approved for designation as a national market system security on an interdealer quotation system by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (or any successor thereto).

All actions taken, and all interpretations and determinations made, by the Administrator in good faith will be final and binding upon Participant, the Company and all other interested persons. No member of the Administrator will be personally liable for any action, determination or interpretation made in good faith with respect to the Plan or this Award Agreement.

2020 EQUITY INCENTIVE PLAN

 

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

 

1. Grant of Option. The Company hereby grants to the individual (the “Participant”) named in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice of Grant”) an option (the “Option”) under the Momentus Inc. 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Plan”) to purchase the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Grant, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice of Grant (the “Exercise Price”), subject to all of the terms and conditions set forth in the Notice of Grant, this Stock Option Agreement (the “Award Agreement”) and the Plan, which is incorporated herein by reference. [If there is a conflict between the terms and conditions of the Plan and the terms and conditions of this Award Agreement, the terms and conditions of the Plan will prevail.]

 

If designated in the Notice of Grant as an Incentive Stock Option (“ISO”), this Option is intended to qualify as an ISO to the maximum extent permitted under Section 422 of the U.S. Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”). However, if this Option is intended to be an ISO, to the extent that it exceeds the USD $100,000 rule of Code Section 422(d) it will be treated as a Nonstatutory Stock Option (“NSO”). Further, if for any reason this Option (or portion thereof) will not qualify as an ISO, then, to the extent of such non-qualification, such Option (or portion thereof) shall be regarded as a NSO granted under the Plan. In no event will the Administrator, the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary or any of their respective employees or directors have any liability to Participant (or any other person) due to the failure of the Option to qualify for any reason as an ISO.

 

2. Vesting Schedule. Except as provided in Section 3, the Option awarded by this Award Agreement will vest in accordance with the vesting provisions set forth in the Notice of Grant. Options scheduled to vest on a certain date or upon the occurrence of a certain condition will not vest in accordance with any of the provisions of this Award Agreement, unless Participant will have been continuously a Service Provider from the Date of Grant until the date such vesting occurs. Service Provider status for purposes of this Award will end on the day that Participant is no longer actively providing services as an Employee, Director, or Independent Contractor and will not be extended by any notice period or “garden leave” that may be required contractually or under any Applicable Laws. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Administrator (or any delegate) shall have the sole and absolute discretion to determine when Participant is no longer providing active service for purposes of Service Provider status and participation in the Plan.

 

3. Exercise of Option.

 

(a) Right to Exercise. This Option may be exercised only within the term set forth in the Notice of Grant and may be exercised during such term only in accordance with the Plan and the terms of this Award Agreement.

 

(b) Method of Exercise. This Option is exercisable by delivery of an exercise notice, in the form attached as Exhibit A (the “Exercise Notice”) or in a manner and pursuant to such procedures as the Administrator may determine, which will state the election to exercise the Option, the number of Shares in respect of which the Option is being exercised (the “Exercised Shares”), and such other representations and agreements as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. The Exercise Notice will be completed by Participant and delivered to the Company. The Exercise Notice will be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price as to all Exercised Shares together with any Tax-Related Items (as defined below) required to be withheld, paid or provided pursuant to any Applicable Laws. This Option will be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of such fully executed Exercise Notice accompanied by such aggregate Exercise Price and any other requirements or restrictions that may be imposed by the Company to comply with Applicable Laws or facilitate administration of the Plan. Notwithstanding the above, Participant understands that the Applicable Laws of the country in which Participant is residing or working at the time of grant, vesting, and/or exercise of this Option (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor or other matters) may restrict or prevent exercise of this Option, and neither the Company nor any Parent or Subsidiary assumes any liability in relation to this Option in such case.

 

-1-

 

  

4. Method of Payment. Payment of the aggregate Exercise Price will be by any of the following, or a combination thereof, at the election of Participant unless otherwise specified by the Company in its sole discretion:

 

(a) cash (U.S. dollars); or

 

(b) check (denominated in U.S. dollars)[; or

 

(c) consideration received by the Company under a formal cashless exercise program adopted by the Company in connection with the Plan][; or

 

(d) if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, Participant may direct the Company to withhold Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option to pay the aggregate Exercise Price.]

 

Participant understands and agrees that, unless otherwise permitted by the Company, any cross-border remittance made to exercise this Option or transfer proceeds received upon the sale of Shares must be made through a locally authorized financial institution or registered foreign exchange agency and may require the Participant to provide such entity with certain information regarding the transaction.

 

5. Tax Obligations.

 

(a) Withholding of Taxes. Regardless of any action the Company or Participant’s employer (the “Employer”) takes with respect to any or all applicable national, local, or other tax or social contribution, withholding, required deductions, or other payments, if any, that arise upon the grant, vesting, or exercise of this Option, the holding or subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of dividends, if any, or otherwise in connection with this Option or the Shares (“Tax-Related Items”), Participant acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items legally due by Participant is and remains Participant’s responsibility and may exceed any amount actually withheld by the Company or the Employer. Participant further acknowledges and agrees that Participant is solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required in relation to this Option or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the specific obligation of the Company, an Affiliate or Employer pursuant to Applicable Laws) such as but not limited to personal income tax returns or reporting statements in relation to the grant, vesting or exercise of this Option, the holding of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of any dividends. Participant further acknowledges that the Company and the Employer (a) make no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items in connection with any aspect of the Option, including the grant, vesting, or exercise of the Option, the subsequent sale of Shares acquired under the Plan and the receipt of dividends, if any; and (b) does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms of the Option or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate Participant’s liability for Tax-Related Items, or achieve any particular tax result. Participant also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying Share or Option valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax-Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax-Related Items that may be required of Participant under Applicable Laws. Further, if Participant has become subject to tax in more than one jurisdiction between the date of grant and the date of any relevant taxable event, Participant acknowledges that the Company and/or the Employer (or former employer, as applicable) may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

(b) Satisfaction of Tax-Related Items. As a condition to the grant, vesting and exercise of this Option and as set forth in Section 16 of the Plan, Participant hereby agrees to make adequate provision for the satisfaction of (and will indemnify the Company and any Affiliate for) any Tax-Related Items. No payment will be made to Participant (or his or her estate or beneficiary) related to an Option, and no Shares will be issued pursuant to an Option, unless and until satisfactory arrangements (as determined by the Company) have been made by Participant with respect to the payment of any Tax-Related Items obligations of the Company and/or any Parent, Subsidiary, or Employer with respect to the grant, vesting or exercise of the Option. [In this regard, Participant authorizes the Company and/or any Affiliate or Employer, or their respective agents, at their discretion, to satisfy the obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items by one or a combination of the following:

 

(i) withholding from Participant’s wages or other cash compensation paid to Participant by the Company or the Employer[; or

 

(ii) withholding from proceeds of the sale of Shares acquired upon exercise of the Option, either through a voluntary sale or through a mandatory sale arranged by the Company (on Participant’s behalf pursuant to this authorization)][; or

 

(iii) withholding in Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option].]

 

[Notwithstanding the foregoing, if Participant is subject to Section 16 of the Exchange Act, Participant may direct the Company to withhold Shares to be issued upon exercise of the Option to satisfy Participant’s obligations with regard to all Tax-Related Items.]

 

If the obligation for Tax-Related Items is satisfied by withholding Shares, the Participant is deemed to have been issued the full number of Shares purchased for tax purposes, notwithstanding that a number of Shares is held back solely for the purpose of paying the Tax-Related Items due as a result of the Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant shall pay to the Company or a Parent, Subsidiary, or Employer any amount of Tax-Related Items that the Company may be required to withhold, pay or otherwise provide for as a result of Participant’s participation in the Plan that cannot be satisfied by one or more of the means previously described in this Section 5. Participant acknowledges and agrees that the Company may refuse to honor the exercise and refuse to issue or deliver the Shares or the proceeds of the sale of Shares if Participant fails to comply with his or her obligations in connection with the Tax-Related Items.

 

-3-

 

 

(c) Notice of Disqualifying Disposition of ISO Shares. If the Option granted to Participant herein is an ISO, and if Participant sells or otherwise disposes of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to the ISO on or before the later of (i) the date two (2) years after the Date of Grant, or (ii) the date one (1) year after the date of exercise, Participant will immediately notify the Company in writing of such disposition.

 

(d) Code Section 409A (Applicable Only to Participants Subject to U.S. Taxes). Under Code Section 409A, an option that is granted with a per Share exercise price that is determined by the Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) to be less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant (a “Discount Option”) may be considered “deferred compensation.” A Discount Option may result in (i) income recognition by Participant prior to the exercise of the option, (ii) an additional twenty percent (20%) federal income tax, and (iii) potential penalty and interest charges. The Discount Option may also result in additional state income, penalty and interest charges to the Participant. Participant acknowledges that the Company cannot and has not guaranteed that the IRS will agree that the per Share exercise price of this Option equals or exceeds the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant in a later examination. Participant agrees that if the IRS determines that the Option was granted with a per Share exercise price that was less than the Fair Market Value of a Share on the date of grant, Participant will be solely responsible for Participant’s costs related to such a determination.

 

6. Rights as Stockholder. Neither Participant nor any person claiming under or through Participant will have any of the rights or privileges of a stockholder of the Company in respect of any Shares unless and until such Shares will have been issued (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company). After such issuance, Participant will have all the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to voting such Shares and receipt of dividends and distributions on such Shares, but prior to such issuance, Participant will not have any rights to dividends and/or distributions on such Shares.

 

7. No Guarantee of Continued Service or Grants. PARTICIPANT ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THE VESTING OF SHARES PURSUANT TO THE VESTING SCHEDULE HEREOF SHALL OCCUR ONLY BY CONTINUING AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT THE WILL OF THE EMPLOYER OR CONTRACTING ENTITY (AS APPLICABLE) AND NOT THROUGH THE ACT OF BEING HIRED, BEING GRANTED THE OPTION OR ACQUIRING SHARES HEREUNDER. PARTICIPANT FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGES AND AGREES THAT THIS AWARD AGREEMENT, THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREUNDER AND THE VESTING SCHEDULE SET FORTH HEREIN DO NOT CONSTITUTE AN EXPRESS OR IMPLIED PROMISE OF CONTINUED ENGAGEMENT AS A SERVICE PROVIDER FOR THE VESTING PERIOD, FOR ANY PERIOD, OR AT ALL, AND WILL NOT INTERFERE IN ANY WAY WITH PARTICIPANT’S RIGHT OR THE RIGHT OF THE EMPLOYER OR THE COMPANY (OR ANY AFFILIATE) TO TERMINATE PARTICIPANT’S RELATIONSHIP AS A SERVICE PROVIDER AT ANY TIME, WITH OR WITHOUT CAUSE (SUBJECT TO APPLICABLE LAWS).

 

8. Nature of Grant. In accepting the Option, Participant acknowledges, understands and agrees that:

 

(a) the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, it is discretionary in nature and it may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time;

 

(b) the grant of the Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Options, or benefits in lieu of Options even if Options have been granted repeatedly in the past;

 

-4-

 

 

(c) all decisions with respect to future awards of Options, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company;

 

(d) Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary;

 

(e) the Option and the Shares subject to the Option are extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the Company or the Employer, and that are outside the scope of Participant’s employment contract, if any;

 

(f) the Option and the Shares subject to the Option are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation;

 

(g) the Option and the Shares subject to the Option are not part of normal or expected compensation or salary for any purposes, including, but not limited to, calculating any severance, resignation, termination, redundancy, dismissal, or end of service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement or welfare benefits or similar payments and in no event should be considered as compensation for, or relating in any way to, past services for the Company or the Employer, subject to Applicable Laws;

 

(h) the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty; further, if Participant exercises the Option and obtains Shares, the value of the Shares acquired upon exercise may increase or decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price;

 

(i) Participant also understands that neither the Company nor any Affiliate is responsible for any foreign exchange fluctuation between local currency and the United States Dollar or the selection by the Company or any Affiliate in its sole discretion of an applicable foreign currency exchange rate that may affect the value of the Option (or the calculation of income or Tax-Related Items thereunder);

 

(j) in consideration of the grant of the Option, no claim or entitlement to compensation or damages shall arise from forfeiture of the Option resulting from termination of employment by the Employer (for any reason whatsoever and whether or not in breach of Applicable Laws, including, without limitation, applicable local labor laws), and Participant irrevocably releases the Employer from any such claim that may arise; if, notwithstanding the foregoing, any such claim is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to have arisen, Participant shall be deemed irrevocably to have waived his or her entitlement to pursue such claim; and

 

(k) the Option and the benefits under the Plan, if any, will not automatically transfer to another company in the case of a merger, take-over or transfer of liability.

 

9. No Advice Regarding Grant. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan, or Participant’s acquisition or sale of the underlying Shares. Participant is hereby advised to consult with his or her own personal tax, legal and financial advisors regarding Participant’s participation in the Plan before taking any action related to the Plan.

10. Data Privacy. Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s Personal Data (as described below) by and among, as applicable, the Company, any Affiliate or third parties as may be selected by the Company for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands that refusal or withdrawal of consent will affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan; without providing consent, Participant will not be able to participate in the Plan or realize benefits (if any) from the Option.

 

Participant understands that the Company and any Affiliate, or designated third parties may hold personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company or any Affiliate details of all Options or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Personal Data”). Participant understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any Affiliate or third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the United States, Participant’s country (if different than the United States), or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country. In particular, the Company may transfer Personal Data to the broker or stock plan administrator assisting with the Plan, to its legal counsel and tax/accounting advisor, and to the Affiliate or entity that is Participant’s employer and its payroll provider.

 

Participant should also refer to any data privacy policy implemented by the Company (which will be available to Participant separately and may be updated from time to time) for more information regarding the collection, use, storage, and transfer of Participant’s Personal Data.

 

11. Address for Notices. Any notice to be given to the Company under the terms of this Award Agreement will be addressed to the Company, in care of its Secretary at Momentus Inc., 3050 Kenneth Street, Santa Clara, California 95054, or at such other address as the Company may hereafter designate in writing.

14. Additional Conditions to Issuance of Stock. If at any time the Company will determine, in its discretion, that the listing, registration, qualification or compliance of the Shares upon or with any securities exchange or under any Applicable Laws, the tax code and related regulations or the consent or approval of any governmental regulatory authority is necessary or desirable as a condition to the grant or vesting of the Option or purchase by, or issuance of Shares to, Participant (or his or her estate) hereunder, such purchase or issuance will not occur unless and until such listing, registration, qualification, compliance, consent or approval will have been completed, effected or obtained free of any conditions not acceptable to the Company. The Company will make all reasonable efforts to meet the requirements of any Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for purposes of the Tax-Related Items, the Exercised Shares will be considered transferred to Participant on the date the Option is exercised with respect to such Exercised Shares. The Company shall not be obligated to issue any Shares pursuant to this Option at any time if the issuance of Shares, or the exercise of an Option by Participant, violates or is not in compliance with any Applicable Laws.

15. Lock-Up Agreement. If so requested by the Company in connection with a transaction pursuant to which the securities of the Company will be exchanged for securities of a company (or any successor or parent thereof) registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), including, without limitation, through a transaction with a publicly-listed blank check company then registered under the Securities Act (a “SPAC Transaction”), Participant hereby agrees (i) not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however and whenever acquired without the prior written consent of the Company for a period of 180 days from the date of the consummation of the transaction in which the securities of the Company became a Listed Security (as defined below), and (ii) to execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing.

20. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan, on the Option and on any Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with any Applicable Laws or facilitate the administration of the Plan, and to require Participant to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Furthermore, Participant understands that the Applicable Laws of the country in which he or she is resident at the time of grant, vesting, and/or exercise of this Option or the holding or disposition of Shares (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor or other matters) may restrict or prevent exercise of this Option or may subject Participant to additional procedural or regulatory requirements he or she is solely responsible for and will have to independently fulfill in relation to this Option or the Shares. [Notwithstanding any provision herein, this Option and any Exercised Shares shall be subject to any special terms and conditions or disclosures as set forth in any addendum for Participant’s country (the “Country-Specific Addendum,” which forms part this Award Agreement).] Participant also understands and agrees that if he or she works, resides, moves to, or otherwise is or becomes subject to Applicable Laws or company policies of another jurisdiction at any time, certain country-specific notices, disclaimers and/or terms and conditions may apply to him or her as from the date of grant, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

 

21. Captions. Captions provided herein are for convenience only and are not to serve as a basis for interpretation or construction of this Award Agreement.

 

22. Agreement Severable. If any provision in this Award Agreement will be held invalid or unenforceable, such provision will be severable from, and such invalidity or unenforceability will not be construed to have any effect on, the remaining provisions of this Award Agreement.

Space Apprentices Enterprise Inc. 2018 Stock Plan

 

SECTION 1. ESTABLISHMENT AND PURPOSE.

 

The purpose of this Plan is to attract, incentivize and retain Employees, Outside Directors and Consultants through the grant of Awards. The Plan provides for the direct award or sale of Shares, the grant of Options to purchase Shares and the grant of Restricted Stock Units to acquire Shares. Options granted under the Plan may be ISOs intended to qualify under Code Section 422 or NSOs which are not intended to so qualify.

 

Capitalized terms are defined in Section 12.

 

SECTION 2. ADMINISTRATION.

 

(a) Committees of the Board of Directors. The Plan may be administered by one or more Committees. Each Committee shall consist, as required by applicable law, of one or more members of the Board of Directors who have been appointed by the Board of Directors. Each Committee shall have such authority and be responsible for such functions as the Board of Directors has assigned to it. If no Committee has been appointed, the entire Board of Directors shall administer the Plan. Any reference to the Board of Directors in the Plan or an Award Agreement shall be construed as a reference to the Committee (if any) to whom the Board of Directors has assigned a particular function.

 

(b) Authority of the Board of Directors. Subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Board of Directors shall have full authority and discretion to take any actions it deems necessary or advisable for the administration of the Plan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Plan, with respect to the terms and conditions of awards granted to Participants outside the United States, the Board of Directors may vary from the provisions of the Plan to the extent it determines it necessary and appropriate to do so; provided that it may not vary from those Plan terms requiring stockholder approval pursuant to Section 11(d) below. All decisions, interpretations and other actions of the Board of Directors shall be final and binding on all Participants and all persons deriving their rights from a Participant.

SECTION 3. ELIGIBILITY.

 

(a) General Rule. Employees, Outside Directors and Consultants shall be eligible for the grant of Awards under the Plan.1 However, only Employees shall be eligible for the grant of ISOs.

 

(b) TenPercent Stockholders. A person who owns more than 10% of the total combined voting power of all classes of outstanding stock of the Company, its Parent or any of its Subsidiaries shall not be eligible for the grant of an ISO unless (i) the Exercise Price is at least 110% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant and (ii) such ISO by its terms is not exercisable after the expiration of five years from the Date of Grant. For purposes of this Subsection (b), in determining stock ownership, the attribution rules of Code Section 424(d) shall be applied.

 

SECTION 4. STOCK SUBJECT TO PLAN.

 

(a) Basic Limitation. Not more than Shares may be issued under the Plan, subject to Subsection (b) below and Section 9(a).2 All of these Shares may be issued upon the exercise of ISOs. The Company, during the term of the Plan, shall at all times reserve and keep available sufficient Shares to satisfy the requirements of the Plan. Shares offered under the Plan may be authorized but unissued Shares or treasury Shares.

 

(b) Additional Shares. In the event that Shares previously issued under the Plan are forfeited to or repurchased by the Company due to failure to vest, such Shares shall be added to the number of Shares then available for issuance under the Plan. In the event that Shares that otherwise would have been issuable under the Plan are withheld by the Company in payment of the Purchase Price, Exercise Price or withholding taxes, such Shares shall remain available for issuance under the Plan. In the event that an outstanding Option, Restricted Stock Unit or other right for any reason expires or is canceled, the Shares allocable to the unexercised or unsettled portion of such Option, Restricted Stock Unit or other right shall remain available for issuance under the Plan. To the extent an Award is settled in cash, the cash settlement shall not reduce the number of Shares remaining available for issuance under the Plan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the case of ISOs, this Subsection (b) shall be subject to any limitations imposed under Section 422 of the Code and the treasury regulations thereunder.

  

 

 

1 Note that special considerations apply if the Company proposes to grant awards to an Employee or Consultant of a Parent company.
2 Please refer to Exhibit A for a schedule of the initial share reserve and any subsequent increases in the reserve.

SECTION 5. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF AWARDS OR SALES.

 

(a) Stock Grant or Purchase Agreement. Each award of Shares under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Grant Agreement between the Grantee and the Company. Each sale of Shares under the Plan (other than upon exercise of an Option) shall be evidenced by a Stock Purchase Agreement between the Purchaser and the Company. Such award or sale shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions which are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Board of Directors deems appropriate for inclusion in a Stock Grant Agreement or Stock Purchase Agreement. The provisions of the various Stock Grant Agreements and Stock Purchase Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

 

(b) Duration of Offers and Nontransferability of Rights. Any right to purchase Shares under the Plan (other than an Option) shall automatically expire if not exercised by the Purchaser within 30 days (or such other period as may be specified in the Award Agreement) after the grant of such right was communicated to the Purchaser by the Company. Such right is not transferable and may be exercised only by the Purchaser to whom such right was granted.

 

(c) Purchase Price. The Board of Directors shall determine the Purchase Price of Shares to be offered under the Plan at its sole discretion. The Purchase Price shall be payable in a form described in Section 8.

 

SECTION 6. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF OPTIONS.

 

(a) Stock Option Agreement. Each grant of an Option under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Stock Option Agreement between the Optionee and the Company. The Option shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions that are not inconsistent with the Plan and that the Board of Directors deems appropriate for inclusion in a Stock Option Agreement. The provisions of the various Stock Option Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

 

(b) Number of Shares. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the number of Shares that are subject to the Option and shall provide for the adjustment of such number in accordance with Section 9. The Stock Option Agreement shall also specify whether the Option is an ISO or an NSO.

 

3

 

 

(c) Exercise Price.

 

(i) General. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the Exercise Price, which shall be payable in a form described in Section 8. Subject to the remaining provisions of this Subsection (c), the Exercise Price shall be determined by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion.

 

(ii) ISOs. The Exercise Price of an ISO shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant, and a higher percentage may be required by Section 3(b). This Subsection (c)(ii) shall not apply to an ISO granted pursuant to an assumption of, or substitution for, another incentive stock option in a manner that complies with Code Section 424(a).

 

(iii) NSOs. Except as specifically set forth in this Subsection (c)(iii), the Exercise Price of an NSO shall not be less than 100% of the Fair Market Value of a Share on the Date of Grant. This Subsection (c)(iii) shall not apply to an NSO granted to a person who is not a U.S. taxpayer on the Date of Grant or to an NSO that is intended either to be exempt from Code Section 409A as a “short-term deferral” or to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A. In addition, this Subsection (c)(iii) shall not apply to an NSO granted pursuant to an assumption of, or substitution for, another stock option in a manner that complies with Code Section 409A.

 

(d) Vesting and Exercisability. Each Stock Option Agreement shall specify the date when all or any installment of the Option is to become vested and exercisable. No Option shall be exercisable unless the Optionee (i) has delivered an executed copy of the Stock Option Agreement to the Company or

(ii) otherwise agrees to be bound by the terms of the Stock Option Agreement. The Board of Directors shall determine the vesting and exercisability provisions of the Stock Option Agreement at its sole discretion.

 

(e) Basic Term. The Stock Option Agreement shall specify the term of the Option. The term shall not exceed 10 years from the Date of Grant, and in the case of an ISO, a shorter term may be required by Section 3(b). Subject to the preceding sentence, the Board of Directors at its sole discretion shall determine when an Option is to expire.

 

4

 

 

(f) Termination of Service (Except by Death).

 

If an Optionee’s Service terminates for any reason other than the Optionee’s death, then the Optionee’s Options shall expire on the earliest of the following dates:

 

(i) The expiration date determined pursuant to Subsection (e) above;

 

(ii) The date three months after the termination of the Optionee’s Service for any reason other than Disability, or such earlier or later date as the Board of Directors may determine (but in no event earlier than 30 days after the termination of the Optionee’s Service); or

 

(iii) The date six months after the termination of the Optionee’s Service by reason of Disability, or such later date as the Board of Directors may determine.

 

The Optionee may exercise all or part of the Optionee’s Options at any time before the expiration of such Options under the preceding sentence, but only to the extent that such Options had become exercisable before the Optionee’s Service terminated (or became exercisable as a result of the termination) and the underlying Shares had vested before the Optionee’s Service terminated (or vested as a result of the termination). In the event that the Optionee dies after the termination of the Optionee’s Service but before the expiration of the Optionee’s Options, all or part of such Options may be exercised (prior to expiration) by the executors or administrators of the Optionee’s estate or by any person who has acquired such Options directly from the Optionee by beneficiary designation, bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that such Options had become exercisable before the Optionee’s Service terminated (or became exercisable as a result of the termination) and the underlying Shares had vested before the Optionee’s Service terminated (or vested as a result of the termination). In no event will an Option, or the Shares underlying an Option, become vested and/or exercisable after termination of the Optionee’s Service unless the Board of Directors takes affirmative action or unless expressly provided in a written agreement between the Company and the Optionee.

 

(g) Leaves of Absence. For purposes of Subsection (f) above, Service shall be deemed to continue while the Optionee is on a bona fide leave of absence approved by the Company in writing.

 

(h) Death of Optionee. If an Optionee dies while the Optionee is in Service, then the Optionee’s Options shall expire on the earlier of the following dates:

 

(i) The expiration date determined pursuant to Subsection (e) above; or

  

(ii) The date 12 months after the Optionee’s death, or such earlier or later date as the Board of Directors may determine (but in no event earlier than six months after the Optionee’s death).

 

5

 

 

All or part of the Optionee’s Options may be exercised at any time before the expiration of such Options under the preceding sentence by the executors or administrators of the Optionee’s estate or by any person who has acquired such Options directly from the Optionee by beneficiary designation, bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that such Options had become exercisable before the Optionee’s death (or became exercisable as a result of the death) and the underlying Shares had vested before the Optionee’s death (or vested as a result of the Optionee’s death). In no event will an Option, or the Shares underlying an Option, become vested and/or exercisable after the Optionee’s death unless the Board of Directors takes affirmative action or unless expressly provided in a written agreement between the Company and the Optionee.

 

(i) Restrictions on Transfer of Options. An Option shall be transferable by the Optionee only by (i) a beneficiary designation, (ii) a will or (iii) the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided in the next sentence. If the Board of Directors so provides, in a Stock Option Agreement or otherwise, an NSO may be transferable to the extent permitted by Rule 701 under the Securities Act. An ISO may be exercised during the lifetime of the Optionee only by the Optionee or by the Optionee’s guardian or legal representative.

 

(j) No Rights as a Stockholder. An Optionee, or a transferee of an Optionee, shall have no rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares covered by the Optionee’s Option until such person submits a notice of exercise, pays the Exercise Price and satisfies all applicable withholding taxes pursuant to the terms of such Option.

 

(k) Modification, Extension and Assumption of Options. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Board of Directors may modify, reprice, extend or assume outstanding Options or may accept the cancellation of outstanding options (whether granted by the Company or another issuer) in return for the grant of new Options or a different type of award for the same or a different number of Shares and at the same or a different Exercise Price (if applicable). The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of an Option shall, without the consent of the Optionee, impair the Optionee’s rights or increase the Optionee’s obligations under such Option; provided, however, that a modification of an Option that is otherwise favorable to the Optionee (for example, providing the Optionee with additional time to exercise the Option after termination of employment or providing for additional forms of payment) but causes the Option to lose its tax-favored status (for example, as an ISO) shall not require the consent of the Optionee.

 

6

 

 

(l) Company’s Right to Cancel Certain Options. Any other provision of the Plan or a Stock Option Agreement notwithstanding, the Company shall have the right at any time to cancel an Option that was not granted in compliance with Rule 701 under the Securities Act. Prior to canceling such Option, the Company shall give the Optionee not less than 30 days’ notice in writing. If the Company elects to cancel such Option, it shall deliver to the Optionee consideration with an aggregate value equal to the excess of (i) the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Option as of the time of the cancellation over (ii) the Exercise Price of such Option. The consideration may be delivered in the form of cash or cash equivalents, in the form of Shares, or a combination of both. If the consideration would be a negative amount, such Option may be cancelled without the delivery of any consideration.

 

SECTION 7. TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF RESTRICTED STOCK UNITS

 

(a) Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. Each grant of Restricted Stock Units under the Plan shall be evidenced by a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement between the recipient and the Company. Such Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to all applicable terms and conditions of the Plan and may be subject to any other terms and conditions that are not inconsistent with the Plan and which the Board of Directors deems appropriate for inclusion in a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. The provisions of the various Restricted Stock Unit Agreements entered into under the Plan need not be identical.

 

(b) Payment for Restricted Stock Units. No cash consideration shall be required of the recipient in connection with the grant of Restricted Stock Units.

 

(c) Vesting Conditions. Each Restricted Stock Unit Agreement shall specify the vesting requirements applicable to the Restricted Stock Units subject thereto, which the Board of Directors shall determine in its sole discretion.

 

(d) Forfeiture. Unless a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement provides otherwise, upon termination of the recipient’s Service and upon such other times specified in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement, any unvested Restricted Stock Units shall be forfeited to the Company.

 

(e) Voting and Dividend Rights. The holders of Restricted Stock Units shall have no voting rights. Prior to settlement or forfeiture, any Restricted Stock Unit granted under the Plan may, at the discretion of the Board of Directors, carry with it a right to dividend equivalents. Such right entitles the holder to be credited with an amount equal to all cash dividends paid on one Share while the Restricted Stock Unit is outstanding. Dividend equivalents may be converted into additional Restricted Stock Units. Settlement of dividend equivalents may be made in the form of cash, in the form of Shares, or in a combination of both. Prior to distribution, any dividend equivalents that are not paid shall be subject to the same conditions and restrictions as the Restricted Stock Units to which they attach.

 

7

 

 

(f) Form and Time of Settlement of Restricted Stock Units. Settlement of vested Restricted Stock Units may be made in the form of (i) cash, (ii) Shares or (iii) any combination of both, as determined by the Board of Directors. The actual number of Restricted Stock Units eligible for settlement may be larger or smaller than the number included in the original award, based on predetermined performance factors. Vested Restricted Stock Units shall be settled in such manner and at such time(s) as specified in the Restricted Stock Unit Agreement. Until Restricted Stock Units are settled, the number of Shares represented by such Restricted Stock Units shall be subject to adjustment pursuant to Section 9.

 

(g) Death of Recipient. Any Restricted Stock Units that become distributable after the Participant’s death shall be distributed to the Participant’s estate or to any person who has acquired such Restricted Stock Units directly from the recipient by beneficiary designation, bequest or inheritance.

 

(h) Creditors’ Rights. A holder of Restricted Stock Units shall have no rights other than those of a general creditor of the Company. Restricted Stock Units represent an unfunded and unsecured obligation of the Company, subject to the terms and conditions of the applicable Restricted Stock Unit Agreement.

 

(i) Modification, Extension and Assumption of Restricted Stock Units. Within the limitations of the Plan, the Board of Directors may modify, extend or assume outstanding restricted stock units (whether granted by the Company or a different issuer). The foregoing notwithstanding, no modification of a Restricted Stock Unit shall, without the consent of the Participant, impair the Participant’s rights or increase the Participant’s obligations under such Restricted Stock Unit.

 

(j) Restrictions on Transfer of Restricted Stock Units. A Restricted Stock Unit shall be transferable by the Participant only by (i) a beneficiary designation, (ii) a will or (iii) the laws of descent and distribution, except as provided in the next sentence. In addition, if the Board of Directors so provides, in a Restricted Stock Unit Agreement or otherwise, a Restricted Stock Unit shall also be transferable to the extent permitted by Rule 701 under the Securities Act.

 

8

 

 

SECTION 8. PAYMENT FOR SHARES.

 

(a) General Rule. The entire Purchase Price or Exercise Price of Shares issued under the Plan shall be payable in cash or cash equivalents at the time when such Shares are purchased, except as otherwise provided in this Section 8. In addition, the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may also permit payment through any of the methods described in (b) through (g) below.

 

(b) Services Rendered. Shares may be awarded under the Plan in consideration of services rendered to the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary prior to the award.

 

(c) Promissory Note. All or a portion of the Purchase Price or Exercise Price (as the case may be) of Shares issued under the Plan may be paid with a promissory note. The Shares shall be pledged as security for payment of the principal amount of the promissory note and interest thereon. The interest rate payable under the terms of the promissory note shall not be less than the minimum rate (if any) required to avoid the imputation of additional interest under the Code. Subject to the foregoing, the Board of Directors in its sole discretion shall specify the term, interest rate, recourse, amortization requirements (if any) and other provisions of such note.

 

(d) Surrender of Stock. All or any part of the Exercise Price may be paid by surrendering, or attesting to the ownership of, Shares that are already owned by the Optionee. Such Shares shall be surrendered to the Company in good form for transfer and shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date when the Option is exercised.

 

(e) Cashless Exercise. All or part of the Exercise Price and any withholding taxes may be paid pursuant to a cashless exercise arrangement (whether through a securities broker or otherwise) established by the Company whereby Shares subject to an Option are sold and all or part of the sale proceeds are delivered to the Company.

 

9

 

 

(f) Net Exercise. An Option may permit exercise through a “net exercise” arrangement pursuant to which the Company will reduce the number of Shares issued upon exercise by the largest whole number of Shares having an aggregate Fair Market Value (determined by the Board of Directors as of the exercise date) that does not exceed the aggregate Exercise Price or the sum of the aggregate Exercise Price and any withholding taxes (with the Company accepting from the Optionee payment of cash or cash equivalents to satisfy any remaining balance of the aggregate Exercise Price and, if applicable, any additional withholding taxes not satisfied through such reduction in Shares); provided that to the extent Shares subject to an Option are withheld in this manner, the number of Shares subject to the Option following the net exercise will be reduced by the sum of the number of Shares withheld and the number of Shares delivered to the Optionee as a result of the exercise.

  

(g) Other Forms of Payment. To the extent that an Award Agreement so provides, the Purchase Price or Exercise Price of Shares issued under the Plan may be paid in any other form permitted by the Delaware General Corporation Law, as amended.

 

SECTION 9. ADJUSTMENT OF SHARES.

 

(a) General. In the event of a subdivision of the outstanding Stock, a declaration of a dividend payable in Shares, a combination or consolidation of the outstanding Stock into a lesser number of Shares, a reclassification, or any other increase or decrease in the number of issued shares of Stock effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, proportionate adjustments shall automatically be made, as applicable, in each of (i) the number and kind of Shares available under Section 4, (ii) the number and kind of Shares covered by each outstanding Option, Award of Restricted Stock Units and any outstanding and unexercised right to purchase Shares that has not yet expired pursuant to Section 5(b), (iii) the Exercise Price under each outstanding Option and the Purchase Price applicable to any unexercised stock purchase right described in clause (ii) above, and (iv) any repurchase price that applies to Shares granted under the Plan pursuant to the terms of a Company repurchase right under the applicable Award Agreement. In the event of a declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than Shares in an amount that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value of the Stock, a recapitalization, a spin-off, or a similar occurrence, the Board of Directors at its sole discretion may make appropriate adjustments in one or more of the items listed in clauses (i) through (iv) above; provided, however, that the Board of Directors shall in any event make such adjustments as may be required by Section 25102(o) of the California Corporations Code to the extent the Company is relying on the exemption afforded thereunder with respect to an Award. No fractional Shares shall be issued under the Plan as a result of an adjustment under this Section 9(a), although the Board of Directors in its sole discretion may make a cash payment in lieu of fractional Shares.

 

10

 

 

(b) Corporate Transactions. In the event that the Company is a party to a merger or consolidation, or in the event of a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s stock or assets, all Shares acquired under the Plan and all Awards outstanding on the effective date of the transaction shall be treated in the manner described in the definitive transaction agreement (or, in the event the transaction does not entail a definitive agreement to which the Company is party, in the manner determined by the Board of Directors in its capacity as administrator of the Plan, with such determination having final and binding effect on all parties), which agreement or determination need not treat all Awards (or all portions of an Award) in an identical manner. The treatment specified in the transaction agreement or as determined by the Board of Directors may include (without limitation) one or more of the following with respect to each outstanding Award:

 

(i) The Company, the surviving corporation or a parent thereof may continue or assume the Award or substitute a comparable award for the Award (including, but not limited to, an award to acquire the same consideration paid to the holders of Shares in the transaction). For avoidance of doubt, a comparable award need not be the same type of award as the Award for which it is substituted, and, in the case of an Option, need not have the same tax-status (e.g., an NSO may be substituted for an ISO).

 

(ii) The cancellation of the Award and a payment to the Participant with respect to each Share subject to the portion of the Award that is vested as of the transaction date equal to the excess of (A) the value, as determined by the Board of Directors in its absolute discretion, of the property (including cash) received by the holder of a share of Stock as a result of the transaction, over (if applicable) (B) the per-Share Exercise Price of the Award (such excess, the “Spread”). Such payment shall be made in the form of cash, cash equivalents, or securities of the surviving corporation or its parent having a value equal to the Spread. In addition, any escrow, indemnification, holdback, earn-out or similar provisions in the transaction agreement may apply to such payment to the same extent and in the same manner as such provisions apply to the holders of Stock. Receipt of the payment described in this Subsection (b)(ii) may be conditioned upon the Participant acknowledging such escrow, indemnification, holdback, earn-out or other provisions on a form prescribed by the Company. If the Spread applicable to an Award is zero or a negative number, then the Award may be cancelled without making a payment to the Participant.

 

(iii) Even if the Spread applicable to an Option is a positive number, the Option may be cancelled without the payment of any consideration; provided that the Optionee shall be notified of such treatment and given an opportunity to exercise the Option (to the extent the Option is vested or becomes vested as of the effective date of the transaction) during a period of not less than five (5) business days preceding the effective date of the transaction, unless (A) a shorter period is required to permit a timely closing of the transaction and (B) such shorter period still offers the Optionee a reasonable opportunity to exercise the Option.

 

(iv) In the case of an Option: (A) suspension of the Optionee’s right to exercise the Option during a limited period of time preceding the closing of the transaction if such suspension is administratively necessary to facilitate the closing of the transaction and/or (B) termination of any right the Optionee has to exercise the Option prior to vesting in the Shares subject to the Option (i.e., “early exercise”), such that following the closing of the transaction the Option may only be exercised to the extent it is vested.

 

11

 

 

For the avoidance of doubt, the Board of Directors has discretion to accelerate, in whole or part, the vesting and exercisability of an Award in connection with a corporate transaction covered by this Section 9(b).

 

(c) Dissolution or Liquidation. To the extent not previously exercised or settled, Options, Restricted Stock Units and other rights to purchase Shares shall terminate immediately prior to the liquidation or dissolution of the Company.

 

(d) Reservation of Rights. Except as provided in Section 7(e) or this Section 9, a Participant shall have no rights by reason of (i) any subdivision or consolidation of shares of stock of any class, (ii) the payment of any dividend or (iii) any other increase or decrease in the number of shares of stock of any class. Any issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall not affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or Exercise Price of Shares subject to an Award. The grant of an Award pursuant to the Plan shall not affect in any way the right or power of the Company to make adjustments, reclassifications, reorganizations or changes of its capital or business structure, to merge or consolidate or to dissolve, liquidate, sell or transfer all or any part of its business or assets.

 

SECTION 10. MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS.

 

(a) Securities Law Requirements. Shares shall not be issued under the Plan unless, in the opinion of counsel acceptable to the Board of Directors, the issuance and delivery of such Shares complies with (or is exempt from) all applicable requirements of law, including (without limitation) the Securities Act, the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, state securities laws and regulations, and the regulations of any stock exchange or other securities market on which the Company’s securities may then be traded. The Company shall not be liable for a failure to issue Shares as a result of such requirements. Without limiting the foregoing, the Company may suspend the exercise of some or all outstanding Options for a period of up to 60 days in order to facilitate compliance with Securities Act Rule 701(e).

 

12

 

 

(b) No Retention Rights. Nothing in the Plan or in any right or Award granted under the Plan shall confer upon the Participant any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining the Participant) or of the Participant, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his or her Service at any time and for any reason, with or without cause.

 

(c) Treatment as Compensation. Any compensation that an individual earns or is deemed to earn under this Plan shall not be considered a part of his or her compensation for purposes of calculating contributions, accruals or benefits under any other plan or program that is maintained or funded by the Company, a Parent or a Subsidiary.

 

(d) Governing Law. The Plan and all awards, sales and grants under the Plan shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware (except its choice-of-law provisions), as such laws are applied to contracts entered into and performed in such State.

 

(e) Conditions and Restrictions on Shares. Shares issued under the Plan shall be subject to such forfeiture conditions, rights of repurchase, rights of first refusal, other transfer restrictions and such other terms and conditions as the Board of Directors may determine. Such conditions and restrictions shall be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement and shall apply in addition to any restrictions that may apply to holders of Shares generally. In addition, Shares issued under the Plan shall be subject to conditions and restrictions imposed either by applicable law or by Company policy, as adopted from time to time, designed to ensure compliance with applicable law or laws with which the Company determines in its sole discretion to comply including in order to maintain any statutory, regulatory or tax advantage, which (for avoidance of doubt) need not be set forth in the applicable Award Agreement.

 

(f) Tax Matters.

 

(i) As a condition to the award, grant, issuance, vesting, purchase, exercise, settlement or transfer of any Award, or Shares issued pursuant to any Award, granted under this Plan, the Participant shall make such arrangements as the Board of Directors may require or permit for the satisfaction of any federal, state, local or foreign withholding tax obligations that may arise in connection with such event.

 

13

 

 

(ii) Unless otherwise expressly set forth in an Award Agreement, it is intended that Awards shall be exempt from Code Section 409A, and any ambiguity in the terms of an Award Agreement and the Plan shall be interpreted consistently with this intent. To the extent an Award is not exempt from Code Section 409A (any such award, a “409A Award”), any ambiguity in the terms of such Award and the Plan shall be interpreted in a manner that to the maximum extent permissible supports the Award’s compliance with the requirements of that statute. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary permitted under the Plan, in no event shall a modification of an Award not already subject to Code Section 409A, or any subsequent action taken with respect to such Award, be given effect if such modification or action would cause the Award to become subject to Code Section 409A unless the parties explicitly acknowledge and consent to the modification or action as one having that effect. A 409A Award shall be subject to such additional rules and requirements as specified by the Board of Directors from time to time in order for it to comply with the requirements of Code Section 409A. In this regard, if any amount under a 409A Award is payable upon a “separation from service” to an individual who is considered a “specified employee” (as each term is defined under Code Section 409A), then no such payment shall be made prior to the date that is the earlier of (i) six months and one day after the Participant’s separation from service or (ii) the Participant’s death, but only to the extent such delay is necessary to prevent such payment from being subject to Section 409A(a)(1). In addition, if a transaction subject to Section 9(b) constitutes a payment event with respect to any 409A Award, then the transaction with respect to such award must also constitute a “change in control event” as defined in Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-3(i)(5) to the extent required by Code Section 409A.

 

(iii) Neither the Company nor any member of the Board of Directors shall have any liability to a Participant in the event an Award held by the Participant fails to achieve its intended characterization under applicable tax law.

 

SECTION 11. DURATION AND AMENDMENTS; STOCKHOLDER APPROVAL.

 

(a) Term of the Plan. The Plan, as set forth herein, shall become effective on the date of its adoption by the Board of Directors, subject to approval of the Company’s stockholders under Subsection (d) below. The Plan shall terminate automatically 10 years after the later of (i) the date when the Board of Directors adopted the Plan or (ii) the date when the Board of Directors approved the most recent increase in the number of Shares reserved under Section 4 that was also approved by the Company’s stockholders.

(c) Effect of Amendment or Termination. No Shares shall be issued or sold and no Award granted under the Plan after the termination thereof, except upon exercise or settlement of an Award granted under the Plan prior to such termination. Except as expressly provided in Section 6(k) above, the termination of the Plan, or any amendment thereof, shall not affect any Share previously issued or any Award previously granted under the Plan.

 

(d) Stockholder Approval. To the extent required by applicable law, the Plan will be subject to approval of the Company’s stockholders within 12 months of its adoption date. An amendment of the Plan will be subject to the approval of the Company’s stockholders only to the extent required by applicable laws, regulations or rules.

On the terms and conditions set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, this Agreement and the Plan, the Company has granted to the Optionee on the Date of Grant the option to purchase at the Exercise Price the number of Shares set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant. The Exercise Price is agreed to be at least 100% of the Fair Market Value per Share on the Date of Grant (110% of Fair Market Value if this option is designated as an ISO in the Notice of Stock Option Grant and Section 3(b) of the Plan applies). This option is intended to be an ISO or an NSO, as provided in the Notice of Stock Option Grant.

 

(b) $100,000 Limitation. Even if this option is designated as an ISO in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, it shall be deemed to be an NSO to the extent (and only to the extent) required by the $100,000 annual limitation under Section 422(d) of the Code.

 

(c) Stock Plan and Defined Terms. This option is granted pursuant to the Plan, a copy of which the Optionee acknowledges having received. The provisions of the Plan are incorporated into this Agreement by this reference. Except as otherwise defined in this Agreement (including without limitation Section 15 hereof), capitalized terms shall have the meaning ascribed to such terms in the Plan.

 

SECTION 2. Right To Exercise.

SECTION 4. Exercise Procedures.

 

(a) Notice of Exercise. The Optionee or the Optionee’s representative may exercise this option by: (i) signing and delivering written notice (on a form prescribed by the Company) to the Company pursuant to Section 13(c) specifying the election to exercise this option, the number of Shares for which it is being exercised and the form of payment, (ii) if requested by the Company, executing and delivering such stockholders agreements as apply to the holders of the Company’s preferred stock (including, without limitation, any right of first refusal and co-sale agreement and/or voting agreement of the Company) and (iii) delivering payment, in a form permissible under Section 5, for the full amount of the Purchase Price (together with any applicable withholding taxes under Subsection (b)). In the event that this option is being exercised by the representative of the Optionee, the notice shall be accompanied by proof (satisfactory to the Company) of the representative’s right to exercise this option.

 

(b) Withholding Taxes. In the event that the Company determines that it is required to withhold any tax (including without limitation any income tax, social insurance contributions, payroll tax, payment on account or other tax-related items arising in connection with the Optionee’s participation in the Plan and legally applicable to the Optionee (the “Tax-Related Items”)) as a result of the grant, vesting or exercise of this option, or as a result of the transfer of shares acquired upon exercise of this option, the Optionee, as a condition of this option, shall make arrangements satisfactory to the Company to enable it to satisfy all Tax-Related Items. The Optionee acknowledges that the responsibility for all Tax-Related Items is the Optionee’s and may exceed the amount actually withheld by the Company (or its affiliate or agent).

 

(c) Issuance of Shares. After satisfying all requirements for exercise of this option, the Company shall cause to be issued one or more certificates evidencing, or electronic notation representing, the Shares for which this option has been exercised. Such Shares shall be registered (i) in the name of the person exercising this option, (ii) in the names of such person and his or her spouse as community property or as joint tenants with the right of survivorship or (iii) with the Company’s consent, in the name of a revocable trust. Until the issuance of the Shares has been entered into the books and records of the Company or a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company, no right to vote, receive dividends or any other right as a stockholder will exist with respect to such Shares. The Company shall cause any certificates evidencing such Shares to be delivered to or upon the order of the person exercising this option.

 

SECTION 5. Payment For Stock.

 

(a) Cash. All or part of the Purchase Price may be paid in cash or cash equivalents or pursuant to a form of electronic funds transfer acceptable to the Company.

 

(b) Surrender of Stock. At the discretion of the Board of Directors, all or any part of the Purchase Price may be paid by surrendering, or attesting to the ownership of, Shares that are already owned by the Optionee. Such Shares shall be surrendered to the Company in good form for transfer and shall be valued at their Fair Market Value as of the date when this option is exercised.

 

2

 

 

(c) Cashless Exercise. All or part of the Purchase Price and any withholding taxes may be paid by the delivery (on a form prescribed by the Company) of an irrevocable direction to a securities broker approved by the Company to sell Shares and to deliver all or part of the sales proceeds to the Company. However, payment pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be permitted only if (i) Stock then is publicly traded and (ii) such payment does not violate applicable law. At the discretion of the Board of Directors, all or part of the Purchase Price and any withholding taxes may be paid pursuant to another cashless exercise arrangement established by the Company.

 

SECTION 6. Term And Expiration.

 

(a) Basic Term. This option shall in any event expire on the expiration date set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, which date is 10 years after the Date of Grant (five years after the Date of Grant if this option is designated as an ISO in the Notice of Stock Option Grant and Section 3(b) of the Plan applies).

 

(b) Termination of Service (Except by Death). If the Optionee’s Service terminates for any reason other than death, then this option shall expire on the earliest of the following occasions:

 

  (i) The expiration date determined pursuant to Subsection (a) above;

 

(ii) The date three months after the termination of the Optionee’s Service for any reason other than Disability; or

 

(iii) The date six months after the termination of the Optionee’s Service by reason of Disability.

 

The Optionee may exercise all or part of this option at any time before its expiration under the preceding sentence, but only to the extent that this option had become vested and exercisable before the Optionee’s Service terminated or becomes vested and exercisable as a result of such termination. In the event that the Optionee dies after termination of Service but before the expiration of this option, all or part of this option may be exercised (prior to expiration) by the executors or administrators of the Optionee’s estate or by any person who has acquired this option directly from the Optionee by beneficiary designation, bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that this option had become vested and exercisable before the Optionee’s Service terminated or becomes vested and exercisable as a result of such termination. Once this option (or portion thereof) has terminated, the Optionee shall have no further rights with respect to the option (or portion thereof) or to the underlying Shares.

 

(c) Death of the Optionee. If the Optionee dies while in Service, then this option shall expire on the earlier of the following dates:

 

(i) The expiration date determined pursuant to Subsection (a) above; or

 

(ii) The date 12 months after the Optionee’s death.

 

3

 

 

All or part of this option may be exercised at any time before its expiration under the preceding sentence by the executors or administrators of the Optionee’s estate or by any person who has acquired this option directly from the Optionee by beneficiary designation, bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent that this option had become vested and exercisable before the Optionee’s death or becomes vested and exercisable as a result of the Optionee’s death. Once this option (or portion thereof) has terminated, the Optionee shall have no further rights with respect to the option (or portion thereof) or to the underlying Shares.

 

(d) Additional Vesting After Termination of Service. The period of time beginning on the date that the Optionee’s Service terminates or the date that the Optionee dies while in Service and ending on the earliest of the occasions determined pursuant to Subsections (b) or (c) above, as applicable, is referred to as the “post-termination exercise period”. To the extent this option is not fully vested and exercisable on the date the Optionee’s Service terminates or the date that the Optionee dies while in Service, the Board of Directors may, during the post-termination exercise period, take action to cause this option to become vested and exercisable (in whole or in part). In no event will this option become vested or exercisable after termination of the Optionee’s Service or death unless the Board of Directors takes affirmative action pursuant to the preceding sentence or unless expressly provided in a written agreement between the Company and the Optionee. In this regard, any provision of this Agreement or another agreement that provides for vesting upon an event (including, without limitation, a change in control) will be deemed to require Service through the occurrence of such event unless the agreement clearly provides otherwise.

 

(e) Extension of Post-Termination Exercise Periods. Following the date on which the Company’s Stock is first listed for trading on an established securities market, if during any part of the exercise period described in Subsections (b)(ii) or (iii) or Subsection (c)(ii) above the exercise of this option would be prohibited solely because the issuance of Shares upon such exercise would violate the registration requirements under the Securities Act or a similar provision of other applicable law, then instead of terminating at the end of such prescribed period, the then-vested portion of this option will instead remain outstanding and not expire until the earlier of (i) the expiration date determined pursuant to Section 6(a) above or (ii) the date on which the then-vested portion of this option has been exercisable without violation of applicable law for the aggregate period (which need not be consecutive) after termination of the Optionee’s Service specified in the applicable Subsection above.

 

(f) Part-Time Employment and Leaves of Absence. If the Optionee commences working on a part-time basis, then the Company may adjust the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant. If the Optionee goes on a leave of absence, then, to the extent permitted by applicable law, the Company may adjust or suspend the vesting schedule set forth in the Notice of Stock Option Grant. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, Service shall be deemed to continue for any purpose under this Agreement while the Optionee is on a bona fide leave of absence approved by the Company in writing. Service shall be deemed to terminate when such leave ends, unless the Optionee immediately returns to active work when such leave ends.

 

4

 

 

(g) Notice Concerning ISO Treatment. Even if this option is designated as an ISO in the Notice of Stock Option Grant, it ceases to qualify for favorable tax treatment as an ISO to the extent that it is exercised:

 

(i) More than three months after the date when the Optionee ceases to be an Employee for any reason other than death or permanent and total disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code);

 

(ii) More than 12 months after the date when the Optionee ceases to be an Employee by reason of permanent and total disability (as defined in Section 22(e)(3) of the Code); or

 

(iii) More than three months after the date when the Optionee has been on a leave of absence for three months, unless the Optionee’s reemployment rights following such leave were guaranteed by statute or by contract.

 

SECTION 7. Right Of First Refusal.

 

(a) Right of First Refusal. In the event that the Optionee proposes to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer to a third party any Shares acquired under this Agreement, or any interest in such Shares, the Company shall have the Right of First Refusal with respect to all (and not less than all) of such Shares. If the Optionee desires to transfer Shares acquired under this Agreement, the Optionee shall give a written Transfer Notice to the Company describing fully the proposed transfer, including the number of Shares proposed to be transferred, the proposed transfer price, the name and address of the proposed Transferee and proof satisfactory to the Company that the proposed sale or transfer will not violate any applicable federal, State or foreign securities laws. The Transfer Notice shall be signed both by the Optionee and by the proposed Transferee and must constitute a binding commitment of both parties to the transfer of the Shares. The Company shall have the right to purchase all, and not less than all, of the Shares on the terms of the proposal described in the Transfer Notice (subject, however, to any change in such terms permitted under Subsection (b) below) by delivery of a notice of exercise of the Right of First Refusal within 30 days after the date when the Transfer Notice was received by the Company.

 

(b) Transfer of Shares. If the Company fails to exercise its Right of First Refusal within 30 days after the date when it received the Transfer Notice, the Optionee may, not later than 90 days following receipt of the Transfer Notice by the Company, conclude a transfer of the Shares subject to the Transfer Notice on the terms and conditions no less favorable to the Optionee than those described in the Transfer Notice, provided that any such sale is made in compliance with applicable federal, State and foreign securities laws and not in violation of any other contractual restrictions to which the Optionee is bound. Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions less favorable than those described in the Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer by the Optionee, shall again be subject to the Right of First Refusal and shall require compliance with the procedure described in Subsection (a) above. If the Company exercises its Right of First Refusal, the parties shall consummate the sale of the Shares on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice within 60 days after the date when the Company received the Transfer Notice (or within such longer period as may have been specified in the Transfer Notice); provided, however, that in the event the Transfer Notice provided that payment for the Shares was to be made in a form other than cash or cash equivalents paid at the time of transfer, the Company shall have the option of paying for the Shares with cash or cash equivalents equal to the present value of the consideration described in the Transfer Notice.

 

5

 

 

(c) Additional or Exchanged Securities and Property. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company, a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s stock or assets, any other corporate reorganization, a stock split, the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than stock, a spin-off, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding securities, any securities or other property (including cash or cash equivalents) that are by reason of such transaction exchanged for, or distributed with respect to, any Shares subject to this Section 7 shall immediately be subject to the Right of First Refusal. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the exchange or distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number and/or class of the Shares subject to this Section 7.

 

(d) Termination of Right of First Refusal. Any other provision of this Section 7 notwithstanding, in the event that the Stock is readily tradable on an established securities market when the Optionee desires to transfer Shares, the Company shall have no Right of First Refusal, and the Optionee shall have no obligation to comply with the procedures prescribed by Subsections (a) and (b) above.

 

(e) Permitted Transfers. This Section 7 shall not apply to (i) a transfer by beneficiary designation, will or intestate succession or (ii) a transfer to one or more members of the Optionee’s Immediate Family or to a trust or other entity established by the Optionee solely for the benefit of the Optionee and/or one or more members of the Optionee’s Immediate Family, provided in either case that the Transferee agrees in writing on a form prescribed by the Company to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement. If the Optionee transfers any Shares acquired under this Agreement, either under this Subsection (e) or after the Company has failed to exercise the Right of First Refusal, then this Agreement shall apply to the Transferee to the same extent as to the Optionee.

 

(f) Termination of Rights as Stockholder. If the Company makes available, at the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this Agreement, the consideration for the Shares to be purchased in accordance with this Section 7, then after such time the person from whom such Shares are to be purchased shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such Shares (other than the right to receive payment of such consideration in accordance with this Agreement). Such Shares shall be deemed to have been purchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof, whether or not any certificate(s) therefor have been delivered as required by this Agreement.

 

(g) Assignment of Right of First Refusal. The Board of Directors may freely assign the Company’s Right of First Refusal, in whole or in part. Any person who accepts an assignment of the Right of First Refusal from the Company shall be entitled to and assume all of the Company’s rights and obligations under this Section 7.

 

6

 

 

SECTION 8. Legality Of Initial Issuance.

 

No Shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this option unless and until the Company has determined that:

 

(a) It and the Optionee have taken any actions required to register the Shares under the Securities Act or to perfect an exemption from the registration requirements thereof;

 

(b) Any applicable listing requirement of any stock exchange or other securities market on which Stock is listed has been satisfied; and

 

(c) Any other applicable provision of federal, State or foreign law has been satisfied.

 

SECTION 9. No Registration Rights.

 

The Company may, but shall not be obligated to, register or qualify the sale of Shares under the Securities Act or any other applicable law. The Company shall not be obligated to take any affirmative action in order to cause the sale of Shares under this Agreement to comply with any law.

 

SECTION 10. Restrictions On Transfer Of Shares.

 

(a) General Restrictions. Unless the Stock is readily tradeable on an established securities market, the transfer of any of the Shares acquired pursuant to this Agreement (or any interest therein) shall, at the Company’s request, be conditioned upon (i) effecting such transfer pursuant to a form of stock transfer agreement prescribed by the Company and (ii) payment of a transfer fee not to exceed $5,000.

 

(b) Securities Law Restrictions. Regardless of whether the offer and sale of Shares under the Plan have been registered under the Securities Act or have been registered or qualified under the securities laws of any State or other relevant jurisdiction, the Company at its discretion may impose restrictions upon the sale, pledge or other transfer of such Shares (including the placement of appropriate legends on the stock certificates (or electronic equivalent) or the imposition of stop-transfer instructions) and may refuse (or may be required to refuse) to transfer Shares acquired hereunder (or Shares proposed to be transferred in a subsequent transfer) if, in the judgment of the Company, such restrictions, legends or refusal are necessary or appropriate to achieve compliance with the Securities Act or other relevant securities or other laws, including without limitation under Regulation S of the Securities Act or pursuant to another available exemption from registration.

 

7

 

 

(c) Market Stand-Off. In connection with any underwritten public offering by the Company of its equity securities pursuant to an effective registration statement filed under the Securities Act, including the Company’s initial public offering, the Optionee or a Transferee shall not directly or indirectly sell, make any short sale of, loan, hypothecate, pledge, offer, grant or sell any option or other contract for the purchase of, purchase any option or other contract for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of or transfer, or agree to engage in any of the foregoing transactions with respect to, any Shares acquired under this Agreement without the prior written consent of the Company or its managing underwriter. Such restriction (the “Market Stand-Off”) shall be in effect for such period of time following the date of the final prospectus for the offering as may be requested by the Company or such underwriter. In no event, however, shall such period exceed 180 days plus such additional period as may reasonably be requested by the Company or such underwriter to accommodate regulatory restrictions on (i) the publication or other distribution of research reports or (ii) analyst recommendations and opinions, including (without limitation) the restrictions set forth in Rule 2711(f)(4) of the National Association of Securities Dealers and Rule 472(f)(4) of the New York Stock Exchange, as amended, or any similar successor rules. The Market Stand-Off shall in any event terminate two years after the date of the Company’s initial public offering. In the event of the declaration of a stock dividend, a spin-off, a stock split, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding securities without receipt of consideration, any new, substituted or additional securities which are by reason of such transaction distributed with respect to any Shares subject to the Market Stand-Off, or into which such Shares thereby become convertible, shall immediately be subject to the Market Stand-Off. In order to enforce the Market Stand-Off, the Company may impose stop-transfer instructions with respect to the Shares acquired under this Agreement until the end of the applicable stand-off period. The Company’s underwriters shall be beneficiaries of the agreement set forth in this Subsection (b). This Subsection (b) shall not apply to Shares registered in the public offering under the Securities Act.

 

(d) Investment Intent at Grant. The Optionee represents and agrees that the Shares to be acquired upon exercising this option will be acquired for investment, and not with a view to the sale or distribution thereof.

 

(e) Investment Intent at Exercise. In the event that the sale of Shares under the Plan is not registered under the Securities Act but an exemption is available that requires an investment representation or other representation, the Optionee shall represent and agree at the time of exercise that the Shares being acquired upon exercising this option are being acquired for investment, and not with a view to the sale or distribution thereof, and shall make such other representations as are deemed necessary or appropriate by the Company and its counsel, including (if applicable because the Company is relying on Regulation S under the Securities Act) that as of the date of exercise the Optionee is (i) not a U.S. Person; (ii) not acquiring the Shares on behalf, or for the account or benefit, of a U.S. Person; and (iii) is not exercising the option in the United States.

 

(f) Legends. Any certificates (or electronic equivalent) evidencing Shares purchased under this Agreement shall bear the following legend:

 

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY (AND ANY INTEREST THEREIN) MAY NOT BE SOLD, ASSIGNED, TRANSFERRED, ENCUMBERED OR IN ANY MANNER DISPOSED OF, EXCEPT IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS OF THE STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT PURSUANT TO WHICH SUCH SHARES WERE ACQUIRED. SUCH AGREEMENT GRANTS TO THE COMPANY CERTAIN RIGHTS OF FIRST REFUSAL UPON AN ATTEMPTED TRANSFER OF THE SHARES. IN ADDITION, THE SHARES ARE SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS ON TRANSFER AS SET FORTH IN SUCH STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT. THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY WILL UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FURNISH A COPY OF SUCH STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT TO THE HOLDER HEREOF WITHOUT CHARGE.”

 

8

 

 

Any certificates (or electronic equivalent) evidencing Shares purchased under this Agreement in an unregistered transaction shall bear the following legend (and such other restrictive legends as are required or deemed advisable under the provisions of any applicable law):

 

“THE SHARES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE “ACT”) OR ANY SECURITIES LAWS OF ANY U.S. STATE, AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, REOFFERED, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION THEREOF UNDER SUCH ACT OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL, SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY AND ITS COUNSEL, THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED. IN THE ABSENCE OF REGISTRATION OR THE AVAILABILITY (CONFIRMED BY OPINION OF COUNSEL) OF AN ALTERNATIVE EXEMPTION FROM REGISTRATION UNDER THE ACT (INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION IN ACCORDANCE WITH REGULATION S UNDER THE ACT), THESE SHARES MAY NOT BE SOLD, REOFFERED, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED, ENCUMBERED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED OR DISPOSED OF. HEDGING TRANSACTIONS INVOLVING THESE SHARES MAY NOT BE CONDUCTED UNLESS IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE ACT.”

 

(g) Removal of Legends. If, in the opinion of the Company and its counsel, any legend placed on a stock certificate representing Shares sold under this Agreement is no longer required, the holder of such certificate shall be entitled to exchange such certificate for a certificate representing the same number of Shares but without such legend.

 

(h) Administration. Any determination by the Company and its counsel in connection with any of the matters set forth in this Section 10 shall be conclusive and binding on the Optionee and all other persons.

 

SECTION 11. Drag Along Right.

 

(a) Required Actions. If the Requisite Parties approve a Sale of the Company, then Optionee hereby agrees with respect to all Shares which the Optionee own(s) or over which the Optionee otherwise exercises voting or dispositive authority:

 

(i) if such Sale of the Company requires stockholder approval under the Certificate, the Bylaws of the Company or any law, rule or regulation applicable to the Company, to vote (in person, by proxy or by action by written consent, as applicable) such Shares in favor of such Sale of the Company (it being understood that, within five (5) days after the delivery of a proxy or consent solicitation statement (or similar document requesting the consent or approval of stockholders) in respect of any Sale of the Company, the Stockholder shall duly execute and deliver a proxy or consent, as the case may be, in favor of such Sale of the Company);

 

9

 

 

(ii) if such transaction is a Stock Sale, to sell the same proportion of shares of capital stock of the Company beneficially held by the Optionee as is being sold by the Selling Holders to the person to whom the Selling Holders propose to sell their Shares;

 

(iii) to refrain from exercising any dissenters’ rights or rights of appraisal under applicable law at any time with respect to such Sale of the Company;

 

(iv) if the consideration for such Shares pursuant to the Sale of the Company includes any securities, accept in lieu thereof an amount of cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Company) of such securities to the extent reasonably necessary (as determined in good faith by the Company) to comply with applicable federal and state securities laws;

 

(v) if the Selling Holders appoint a stockholder representative (the “Stockholder Representative”) for matters affecting the stockholders of the Company under the applicable definitive transaction agreements, to consent to (i) the appointment of such Stockholder Representative, (ii) the establishment of any applicable escrow, expense or similar fund in connection with any indemnification or similar obligations, and (iii) the payment of such Stockholder’s pro rata portion (from the applicable escrow or expense fund or otherwise) of any and all reasonable fees and expenses to such Stockholder Representative in connection with such Stockholder Representative’s services and duties in connection with such Sale of the Company and its related service as the representative of the Stockholders;

 

(vi) to agree to make representations and warranties and to agree to indemnity and other liability obligations in connection with the Sale of the Company on terms and conditions that, taken as a whole, are no less favorable to Optionee than to other holders of Class A Common Stock of the Company; and

 

(vii) to execute and deliver all related documentation and take such other action in support of the Sale of the Company, as reasonably requested by the Company, including a written consent, release and/or joinder, and to not take any action inconsistent with the Sale of the Company.

 

(b) Exceptions. Notwithstanding the foregoing, an Optionee will not be required to comply with Subsection (a) above in connection with any Sale of the Company unless (i) each holder of each class or series of the Company’s stock will receive the same form of consideration for their shares of such class or series as is received by other holders in respect of their shares of such same class or series of stock and (ii) each holder of Class A Common Stock will receive the same amount of consideration per share of Class A Common Stock as is received by other holders in respect of their shares of Class A Common Stock, subject, in each case, to any “rollover” or similar arrangements provided in the definitive documents relating to such Sale of the Company. If the consideration to be paid in exchange for the Shares pursuant to such Sale of the Company includes any securities and due receipt thereof by the Optionee would require under applicable law (x) the registration or qualification of such securities or of any person as a broker or dealer or agent with respect to such securities; or (y) the provision to any Optionee of any information other than such information as a prudent issuer would generally furnish in an offering made solely to “accredited investors” as defined in Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act, the Company may cause to be paid to any such Optionee in lieu thereof, against surrender of the Shares which would have otherwise been sold by such Optionee, an amount in cash equal to the fair value (as determined in good faith by the Company’s Board of Directors or the Requisite Parties, as applicable) of the securities which such Optionee would otherwise receive as of the date of the issuance of such securities in exchange for the Shares.

In the event of any transaction described in Section 9(a) of the Plan, the terms of this option (including, without limitation, the number and kind of Shares subject to this option and the Exercise Price) shall be adjusted as set forth in Section 9(a) of the Plan. In the event that the Company is a party to a merger or consolidation or in the event of a sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s stock or assets, this option shall be subject to the treatment provided by the Board of Directors in its sole discretion, as provided in Section 9(b) of the Plan.

 

SECTION 13. Miscellaneous Provisions.

 

(a) Rights as a Stockholder. Neither the Optionee nor the Optionee’s representative shall have any rights as a stockholder with respect to any Shares subject to this option until the Optionee or the Optionee’s representative becomes entitled to receive such Shares by filing a notice of exercise and paying the Purchase Price pursuant to Sections 4 and 5.

 

(b) No Retention Rights. Nothing in this option or in the Plan shall confer upon the Optionee any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining the Optionee) or of the Optionee, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his or her Service at any time and for any reason, with or without cause.

 

(c) Notice. Any notice required by the terms of this Agreement shall be given in writing. It shall be deemed effective upon (i) personal delivery, (ii) deposit with the United States Postal Service, by registered or certified mail, with postage and fees prepaid, (iii) deposit with Federal Express Corporation, with shipping charges prepaid or (iv) deposit with any internationally recognized express mail courier service, with shipping charges prepaid. Notice shall be addressed to the Company at its principal executive office and to the Optionee at the address that he or she most recently provided to the Company in accordance with this Subsection (c). In addition, to the extent required or permitted pursuant to rules established by the Company from time to time, notices may be delivered electronically.

 

(d) Modifications and Waivers. No provision of this Agreement shall be modified, waived or discharged unless the modification, waiver or discharge is agreed to in writing and signed by the Optionee and by an authorized officer of the Company (other than the Optionee); provided, however, that a modification that is otherwise favorable to the Optionee (for example, providing the Optionee with additional time to exercise this option after termination of employment or providing for additional forms of payment) but causes this option to lose its tax-favored status (for example, as an ISO) shall not require the consent of the Optionee. No waiver by either party of any breach of, or of compliance with, any condition or provision of this Agreement by the other party shall be considered a waiver of any other condition or provision or of the same condition or provision at another time.

 

11

 

 

(e) Entire Agreement. The Notice of Stock Option Grant, this Agreement and the Plan constitute the entire contract between the parties hereto with regard to the subject matter hereof. They supersede any other agreements, representations or understandings (whether oral or written and whether express or implied) that relate to the subject matter hereof.

 

(f) Choice of Law. This Agreement shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Delaware, as such laws are applied to contracts entered into and performed in such State.

 

(g) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Agreement shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of this Agreement.

 

(h) Binding Effect on Transferees, Heirs, Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall be binding upon Optionee’s permitted transferees, heirs, successors and assigns; provided that for any such transfer to be deemed effective, the transferee shall agree on a form prescribed by the Company to be bound by the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including the restrictions on transfer in Section 10 and the drag along right in Section 11. The Company shall not record any transfer of Shares on its books or issue a new certificate representing any such Shares unless and until such transferee shall have complied with the terms of this Subsection (h).

 

SECTION 14. Acknowledgements Of The Optionee.

 

In addition to the other terms, conditions and restrictions imposed on this option and the Shares issuable under this option pursuant to this Agreement and the Plan, the Optionee expressly acknowledges being subject to Sections 7 (Right of First Refusal), 8 (Legality of Initial Issuance), 10 (Restrictions on Transfer of Shares, including without limitation the Market Stand-Off) and 11 (Drag Along Right), as well as the following provisions:

 

(a) Tax Consequences. The Optionee agrees that the Company does not have a duty to design or administer the Plan or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes the Optionee’s tax liabilities. The Optionee shall not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors, officers or employees related to tax liabilities arising from this option or the Optionee’s other compensation. In particular, any Optionee subject to U.S. taxation acknowledges that this option is exempt from Section 409A of the Code only if the Exercise Price is at least equal to the Fair Market Value per Share on the Date of Grant. Since Shares are not traded on an established securities market, the determination of their Fair Market Value is made by the Board of Directors or by an independent valuation firm retained by the Company. The Optionee acknowledges that there is no guarantee in either case that the Internal Revenue Service will agree with the valuation, and the Optionee shall not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors, officers or employees in the event that the Internal Revenue Service asserts that the valuation was too low. In addition, if this option is designated as an ISO, the Optionee acknowledges that there is no guarantee that the option in fact qualifies for incentive stock option treatment or that it will continue to qualify for incentive stock option treatment at the time of exercise. In this regard, the Optionee acknowledges that the Company may take actions that will cause the option to cease to be eligible for incentive stock option treatment and that such actions do not require the Optionee’s consent.

 

12

 

 

(b) Electronic Delivery of Documents. The Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the Company may, in its sole discretion, deliver all documents relating to the Company, the Plan or this option and all other documents that the Company is required to deliver to its security holders (including, without limitation, disclosures that may be required by the Securities and Exchange Commission) by email or other means of electronic transmission (including by posting them on a website maintained by the Company or a third party under contract with the Company). The Optionee acknowledges that he or she may incur costs in connection with any such delivery by means of electronic transmission, including the cost of accessing the internet and printing fees, and that an interruption of internet access may interfere with his or her ability to access the documents.

 

(c) No Notice of Expiration Date. The Optionee agrees that the Company and its officers, employees, attorneys and agents do not have any obligation to notify him or her prior to the expiration of this option pursuant to Section 6, regardless of whether this option will expire at the end of its full term or on an earlier date related to the termination of the Optionee’s Service. The Optionee further agrees that he or she has the sole responsibility for monitoring the expiration of this option and for exercising this option, if at all, before it expires. This Subsection (c) shall supersede any contrary representation that may have been made, orally or in writing, by the Company or by an officer, employee, attorney or agent of the Company.

 

(d) Waiver of Statutory Information Rights. The Optionee acknowledges and agrees that, upon exercise of this option and until the first sale of the Company’s Stock to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed under the Securities Act, he or she shall waive, and shall be deemed to have waived, any rights the Optionee would otherwise have under Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (or under similar rights pursuant to any other applicable law) to inspect for any purpose and to make copies and extracts from the Company’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders and its other books and records or the books and records of any subsidiary of the Company (the “Inspection Rights”). The Optionee acknowledges and understands that, but for the waiver made herein, the Optionee would be entitled, upon compliance with the procedures set forth in Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, to Inspection Rights pursuant thereto, and further acknowledges and agrees that the waiver set forth herein is a knowing and voluntary waiver of such rights, that the Optionee has received sufficient consideration for such waiver and that the Company would not be willing to provide the benefits to the Optionee hereunder without the benefit of such waiver from the Optionee. This waiver applies only in the Optionee’s capacity as a stockholder and does not affect any other inspection rights the Optionee may have pursuant to any written agreement with the Company.

 

13

 

 

(e) Plan Discretionary. The Optionee understands and acknowledges that (i) the Plan is entirely discretionary, (ii) the Company and the Optionee’s employer have reserved the right to amend, suspend or terminate the Plan at any time, (iii) the grant of an option does not in any way create any contractual or other right to receive additional grants of options (or benefits in lieu of options) at any time or in any amount and (iv) all determinations with respect to any additional grants, including (without limitation) the times when options will be granted, the number of Shares offered, the Exercise Price and the vesting schedule, will be at the sole discretion of the Company.

 

(f) Termination of Service. The Optionee understands and acknowledges that participation in the Plan ceases upon termination of his or her Service for any reason, except as may explicitly be provided otherwise in the Plan or this Agreement.

 

(g) Extraordinary Compensation. The value of this option shall be an extraordinary item of compensation outside the scope of the Optionee’s employment contract, if any, and shall not be considered a part of his or her normal or expected compensation for purposes of calculating severance, resignation, redundancy or end-of-service payments, bonuses, long-service awards, pension or retirement benefits or similar payments.

 

(h) Authorization to Disclose. The Optionee hereby authorizes and directs the Optionee’s employer to disclose to the Company or any Subsidiary any information regarding the Optionee’s employment, the nature and amount of the Optionee’s compensation and the fact and conditions of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan, as the Optionee’s employer deems necessary or appropriate to facilitate the administration of the Plan.

 

(i) Personal Data Authorization. The Optionee consents to the collection, use and transfer of personal data as described in this Subsection (i). The Optionee understands and acknowledges that the Company, the Optionee’s employer and the Company’s other Subsidiaries hold certain personal information regarding the Optionee for the purpose of managing and administering the Plan, including (without limitation) the Optionee’s name, home address, telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number, salary, nationality, job title, any Shares or directorships held in the Company and details of all options or any other entitlements to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in the Optionee’s favor (the “Data”). The Optionee further understands and acknowledges that the Company and/or its Subsidiaries will transfer Data among themselves as necessary for the purpose of implementation, administration and management of the Optionee’s participation in the Plan and that the Company and/or any Subsidiary may each further transfer Data to any third party assisting the Company in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan. The Optionee understands and acknowledges that the recipients of Data may be located in the United States or elsewhere. The Optionee authorizes such recipients to receive, possess, use, retain and transfer Data, in electronic or other form, for the purpose of administering the Optionee’s participation in the Plan, including a transfer to any broker or other third party with whom the Optionee elects to deposit Shares acquired under the Plan of such Data as may be required for the administration of the Plan and/or the subsequent holding of Shares on the Optionee’s behalf. The Optionee may, at any time, view the Data, require any necessary modifications of Data or withdraw the consents set forth in this Subsection (i) by contacting the Company in writing.

Representations And Acknowledgements Of The Optionee;

 

1. I represent and warrant to the Company that I am acquiring and will hold the Purchased Shares for investment for my account only, and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” of the Purchased Shares within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

 

2. I understand that my purchase of the Purchased Shares has not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom and that the Purchased Shares must be held indefinitely, unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or I obtain an opinion of counsel (in form and substance satisfactory to the Company and its counsel) that registration is not required.

 

3. I acknowledge that the Company is under no obligation to register the Purchased Shares or any sale or transfer thereof.

 

4. I am aware of Rule 144 under the Securities Act, which permits limited public resales of securities acquired in a non-public offering, subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. These conditions may include (without limitation) that certain current public information about the issuer be available, that the resale occur only after a holding period required by Rule 144 has been satisfied, that the sale occur through an unsolicited “broker’s transaction” and that the amount of securities being sold during any three-month period not exceed specified limitations. I understand that the conditions for resale set forth in Rule 144 have not been satisfied as of the date set forth below, and that the Company is not required to take action to satisfy any conditions applicable to it.

 

5. I will not sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of the Purchased Shares in violation of the Securities Act, the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, or the rules promulgated thereunder, including Rule 144 under the Securities Act.

 

6. I acknowledge that I have received and had access to such information as I consider necessary or appropriate for deciding whether to invest in the Purchased Shares and that I had an opportunity to ask questions and receive answers from the Company regarding the terms and conditions of the issuance of the Purchased Shares.

 

2

 

 

7. I am aware that my investment in the Company is a speculative investment that has limited liquidity and is subject to the risk of complete loss. I am able, without impairing my financial condition, to hold the Purchased Shares for an indefinite period and to suffer a complete loss of my investment in the Purchased Shares.

 

8. I acknowledge that the Purchased Shares remain subject to the Company’s right of first refusal, the drag-along right and the market stand-off (sometimes referred to as the “lock-up”), all in accordance with the applicable Notice of Stock Option Grant and Stock Option Agreement. I acknowledge that any transfer of the Purchased Shares may be subject to a transfer fee and must be effected on the Company’s form of stock transfer agreement, as further described in the Stock Option Agreement.

 

9. I acknowledge that I am acquiring the Purchased Shares subject to all other terms of the Notice of Stock Option Grant and Stock Option Agreement.

 

10. I acknowledge that I have received a copy of the Company’s explanation of the forms of ownership available for my Purchased Shares. I acknowledge that the Company has encouraged me to consult my own adviser to determine the form of ownership that is appropriate for me. In the event that I choose to transfer my Purchased Shares to a trust, I agree to sign a Stock Transfer Agreement on a form prescribed by the Company. In the event that I choose to transfer my Purchased Shares to a trust that does not satisfy the requirements described in the attached explanation (i.e., a trust that is not an eligible revocable trust), I also acknowledge that the transfer will be treated as a “disposition” for tax purposes. As a result, the favorable ISO tax treatment will be unavailable and other unfavorable tax consequences may occur.

 

11. I acknowledge that I have received a copy of the Company’s explanation of the federal income tax consequences of an option exercise. I acknowledge that the Company has encouraged me to consult my own adviser to determine the tax consequences of acquiring the Purchased Shares at this time.

 

12. I agree that the Company does not have a duty to design or administer the 2018 Stock Plan or its other compensation programs in a manner that minimizes my tax liabilities. I will not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors, officers or employees related to tax liabilities arising from my options or my other compensation. In particular, I acknowledge that my options are exempt from section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code only if the exercise price per share is at least equal to the fair market value per share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the time the option was granted by the Company’s Board of Directors. Since shares of the Company’s Class A Common Stock are not traded on an established securities market, the determination of their fair market value was made by the Company’s Board of Directors or by an independent valuation firm retained by the Company. I acknowledge that there is no guarantee in either case that the Internal Revenue Service will agree with the valuation, and I will not make any claim against the Company or its Board of Directors, officers or employees in the event that the Internal Revenue Service asserts that the valuation was too low.

 

13. I agree to seek the consent of my spouse to the extent required by the Company to enforce the foregoing.

 

14. I consent, with respect to all shares of capital stock of the Company held by me, to receive any notice given by the Company under its certificate of incorporation or bylaws, as the same may be amended and/or restated from time to time, the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware (the “General Corporation Law”) or otherwise, by electronic transmission pursuant to Section 232 of the General Corporation Law at the email address set forth above. I further acknowledge and agree that the Company may rely upon any expressions of my consent to proposed corporate actions received

 

from the email address provided above. I hereby agree to notify the Company of any change to my email address set forth above, and further agree that the provision of such notice shall constitute my consent to receive notice and to provide my expression of consent as provided herein at such address. In the event that the Company is unable to deliver notice to me at the e-mail address set forth above, I shall, within five (5) days after a request by the Company, provide the Company with a valid e-mail address to which I consent to receive notice and to provide expressions of consent as provided herein.

Explanation Of Forms Of Stock Ownership

 

Purpose Of This Explanation

 

The purpose of this explanation is to provide you with a brief summary of the forms of legal ownership available for the shares that you are purchasing (the “Purchased Shares”). For a number of reasons, this explanation is no substitute for personal legal advice:

 

To make the explanation short and readable, only the highlights are covered. Some legal rules are not addressed, even though they may be important in particular cases.

 

While the summary attempts to deal with the most common situations, your own situation may well be different from the norm.

 

The law may change, and the Company is not responsible for updating this summary.

 

The form in which you own your shares may have a substantial impact on the estate tax treatment that applies to those shares when you die or the income tax treatment that applies when your survivors sell the shares after your death.

 

For These Reasons, The Company Strongly Encourages You To Consult Your Own Adviser Before Exercising Your Option And Before Making A Decision About The Form Of Ownership For Your Shares.

 

Overview

 

The Notice of Stock Option Exercise offers five forms of taking title to the Purchased Shares:

 

In your name only,

 

In your name and the name of your spouse as community property,

 

In your name and the name of your spouse as community property with the right of survivorship,

 

In your name and the name of your spouse as joint tenants with the right of survivorship, or

 

In the name of an eligible revocable trust.

 

Title in the Purchased Shares depends upon (a) your marital status, (b) the marital property laws of your state of residence and (c) any agreement with your spouse altering the existing marital property laws of your state of residence. If you are not married, you generally will take title in your name alone. If you are married, title depends upon the marital property laws of your state of residence. In general, states are classified either as “community property” states or as “common-law property” states. (But individual state law may vary within these classifications.)

 

1

 

 

Community Property And Joint Tenancy

 

Community property states include California, Texas, Washington, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, Idaho, Louisiana and Wisconsin. In a community property state, property acquired during marriage by either spouse is presumed to be one-half owned by each spouse. All other property is classified as the separate property of the spouse who acquires the property. While either spouse has equal management and control over the community property and may sell, spend or encumber all community property, neither spouse may gift community property or partition his/her one-half interest without the consent of the other spouse. Upon divorce, all community property is divided equally among the spouses and each spouse is entitled to retain all of his/her separate property. Upon the death of a spouse, one-half of the community property (and all of the decedent spouse’s separate property) will pass to the decedent spouse’s heirs. The other one-half of the community property remains the property of the surviving spouse.

 

Other states are common-law property states. In a common-law property state, each spouse is generally deemed to own whatever he/she earns or acquires.

 

A married couple may elect to alter the marital property rules by mutually agreeing to take title to property in other forms. For example, a couple residing in a community property state may generally enter into an agreement and transform what otherwise would be community property into the separate property of the spouse who earns or acquires the property.

 

In addition, many community property and common-law property states allow married couples to take joint title in property acquired during marriage. For example, California allows a married couple to take title in a joint tenancy with the right of survivorship. In a joint tenancy, each spouse owns a one-half interest in the property as separate property. This means that each spouse may transfer or sell his/her one-half interest in the property while he/she is alive. However, unlike traditional separate property, a spouse cannot transfer his/her one-half interest to heirs at death. Instead, the surviving spouse automatically receives the decedent spouse’s one-half interest and becomes the full owner of the property. (This is called the “right of survivorship.”) Both spouses must consent to taking property in a joint tenancy in lieu of having the community property laws apply.

 

California also allows a married couple to take title in the shares as community property with the right of survivorship. This means that the shares are treated like community property while both spouses are alive. However, if one spouse dies, then the other spouse automatically receives the decedent spouse’s one-half interest and becomes the full owner of the shares. In other words, the decedent spouse’s will or trust does not control the disposition of the shares.

 

If you have the Purchased Shares issued in a form other than those described above, then the transfer will be treated as a “disposition” for tax purposes. This means that the effect, for tax purposes, will be the same as selling the Purchased Shares. Please refer to the attached tax summary for additional information.

 

2

 

 

Trusts

 

A transfer to a trust generally should not be treated as a “disposition” of the Purchased Shares for tax purposes if the trust satisfies each of the following conditions:

 

You are the sole grantor of the trust,

 

You are the sole trustee, or you and your spouse are the sole co-trustees,

 

The trustee or trustees are not required to distribute the income of the trust to any person other than you and/or your spouse while you are alive, and

 

The trust permits you to revoke all or part of the trust and to have the trust’s assets returned to you, without the consent of any other person (including your spouse).

 

If you have the Purchased Shares issued to a trust that does not meet these requirements, then the transfer will be treated as a “disposition” for tax purposes. This means that the effect, for tax purposes, will be the same as selling the Purchased Shares. Please refer to the attached tax summary for additional information.

 

If you have the Purchased Shares issued to any trust, you will be required to sign a Stock Transfer Agreement in your capacity as trustee. Under the Stock Transfer Agreement, the Purchased Shares remain subject to the Company’s right of first refusal in accordance with the applicable Notice of Stock Option Grant and Stock Option Agreement.

 

The Company Will Not Check To Determine Whether The Form Of Ownership That You Elect In Your Notice Of Stock Option Exercise Is Appropriate. You Should Consult Your Own Advisers On This Subject. If An Inappropriate Election Is Made, The Form Of Ownership May Not Withstand Legal Scrutiny Or May Have Adverse Tax Consequences.

Explanation Of U.s. Federal Income Tax Consequences

(Current as of January 2018)

 

Purpose Of This Explanation

 

The purpose of this explanation is to provide you with a brief summary of the tax consequences of exercising your option. For a number of reasons, this explanation is no substitute for personal tax advice:

 

To make the explanation short and readable, only the highlights are covered. Some tax rules are not addressed, even though they may be important in particular cases.

 

While the summary attempts to deal with the most common situations, your own tax situation may well be different from the norm.

 

State and foreign income taxes are not addressed at all, even though they could have a significant impact on your tax planning. Likewise, federal gift and estate taxes and state inheritance taxes are not discussed.

 

Tax planning involving incentive stock options is exceedingly complex, in part because of the possible application of the alternative minimum tax.

 

This explanation assumes that your option is not subject to section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code. However, the Company cannot be certain that section 409A is inapplicable to your option. (Please refer to the last segment of this summary for more information about section 409A.)

 

The tax rules change often, and the Company is not responsible for updating this summary. (Please refer to the date at the top of this page.)

 

For These Reasons, The Company Strongly Encourages You To Consult Your Own Tax Adviser Before Exercising Your Option.

 

Exercise Of Nso

 

If you are exercising an NSO, you generally will be taxed at the time of exercise. You will recognize ordinary income in an amount equal to the excess of (a) the fair market value of the Purchased Shares on the date of exercise over (b) the exercise price you are paying. If you are an employee or former employee of the Company, this amount is subject to withholding for income and payroll taxes. Your tax basis in the Purchased Shares (to calculate capital gain when you sell the shares) is equal to the sum of the exercise price you paid for the Purchased Shares plus any additional amount you recognized as income on the exercise date.

 

1

 

 

Disposition Of NSO Shares

 

When you dispose of the Purchased Shares, you will recognize a capital gain equal to the excess of (a) the sale proceeds over (b) your tax basis in the Purchased Shares. If the sale proceeds are less than your tax basis, you will recognize a capital loss. The capital gain or loss will be long-term if you held the Purchased Shares for more than 12 months. The holding period starts when you exercise your NSO. In general, the maximum marginal federal income tax rate on long-term capital gains is 20% under current law, but lower long-term capital gain rates may apply to certain taxpayers.

 

Effective January 1, 2013, as a result of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, an additional Medicare contribution tax is imposed at a rate of 3.8% on the “net investment income” of individuals with adjusted gross incomes in excess of $200,000 ($250,000 in the case of a joint return, and $125,000 in the case of a married taxpayer filing separately). “Net investment income” includes income from interest, dividends, and capital gains, reduced by the deductions properly allocated to such income.

 

Depending on the level of your adjusted gross income, the additional Medicare contribution tax may be imposed on any short-term and long-term capital gain income and can increase your marginal tax rate.

 

Limit On ISO Treatment

 

The Notice of Stock Option Grant indicates whether your option is a nonstatutory stock option (NSO) or an incentive stock option (ISO). The favorable tax treatment for ISOs is limited, regardless of what the Notice of Stock Option Grant indicates. Of the options that become exercisable in any calendar year, only options covering the first $100,000 of stock are eligible for ISO treatment. The excess over $100,000 automatically receives NSO treatment. For this purpose, stock is valued at the time of grant. This means that the value is generally equal to the exercise price.

 

For example, assume that you hold an option to buy 60,000 shares for $8 per share. Assume further that the entire option becomes exercisable in four equal annual installments. Only the first 50,000 shares qualify for ISO treatment. (12,500 times $8 equals $100,000.) The remaining 10,000 shares will be treated as if they had been acquired by exercising an NSO. This is true regardless of when the option is actually exercised; what matters is when it first could have been exercised.

 

Exercise Of ISO And ISO Holding Periods

 

If you are exercising an ISO, you will not be taxed under the regular tax rules until you dispose of the Purchased Shares.1 (The alternative minimum tax rules are described below.) The tax treatment at the time of disposition depends on how long you hold the shares. You will satisfy the ISO holding periods if you hold the Purchased Shares until the later of the following dates:

 

More than two years after the ISO was granted, and

 

More than one year after the ISO is exercised.

 

 

 

1 Generally, a “disposition” of shares purchased under an ISO encompasses any transfer of legal title, such as a transfer by sale, exchange or gift. It generally does not include a transfer to your spouse, a transfer into joint ownership with right of survivorship (if you remain one of the joint owners), a pledge, a transfer by bequest or inheritance, or certain tax-free exchanges permitted under the Internal Revenue Code. A transfer to a trust is a “disposition” unless the trust is an eligible revocable trust, as described in the attached explanation.

 

2

 

 

Disposition Of ISO Shares

 

If you dispose of the Purchased Shares after satisfying both of the ISO holding periods, then you will recognize only a long-term capital gain at the time of disposition. The amount of the capital gain is equal to the excess of (a) the sale proceeds over (b) the exercise price. In general, the maximum marginal federal income tax rate on long-term capital gains is 20% under current law, but lower long-term capital gain rates may apply to certain taxpayers.

 

Effective January 1, 2013, as a result of the Health Care and Education Reconciliation Act of 2010, an additional Medicare contribution tax is imposed at a rate of 3.8% on the “net investment income” of individuals with adjusted gross incomes in excess of $200,000 ($250,000 in the case of a joint return, and $125,000 in the case of a married taxpayer filing separately). “Net investment income” includes income from interest, dividends, and capital gains, reduced by the deductions properly allocated to such income.

 

If you dispose of the Purchased Shares before either or both of the ISO holding periods are met, then you will recognize ordinary income at the time of disposition. The amount of ordinary income will be equal to the excess of (a) the fair market value of the Purchased Shares on the date of exercise over (b) the exercise price. But if the disposition is an arm’s length sale to an unrelated party, the amount of ordinary income will not exceed the total gain from the sale. Under current IRS rules, the ordinary income amount will not be subject to withholding for income or payroll taxes.

 

Your tax basis in the Purchased Shares will be equal to the sum of the exercise price you paid for the Purchased Shares plus any additional amount you recognized as ordinary income. Any gain in excess of your basis will be taxed as a capital gain—either long-term or short-term, depending on how long you held the Purchased Shares after the date of exercise.

 

Summary Of Alternative Minimum Tax

 

The alternative minimum tax (AMT) must be paid to the extent that it exceeds your regular federal income tax for the year. For 2018, the first $191,500 ($95,750 for a married taxpayer filing a separate return) of your alternative minimum taxable income for the year over the allowable exemption amount (see below) is subject to alternative minimum taxation at the rate of 26%. The balance of your alternative minimum taxable income is subject to alternative minimum taxation at the rate of 28%. The dollar thresholds dividing the 26% and 28% rates are indexed for inflation in future years. Your alternative minimum tax base is equal to your alternative minimum taxable income (AMTI) minus your exemption amount.

 

Alternative Minimum Taxable Income. Your AMTI is equal to your regular taxable income, subject to certain adjustments and increased by items of tax preference. Among the many adjustments made in computing AMTI are the following:

 

  State and local income and property taxes are not allowed as a deduction.

 

3

 

  

  Certain interest and other deductions are not allowed.

 

  When an ISO is exercised, the spread is added to income for AMT purposes. (See discussion below.)

 

Exemption Amount. Before AMT is calculated, AMTI is reduced by the exemption amount. Under current law, the exemption amount is as follows:

 

Year:   Joint Returns:     Single Returns:     Separate Returns:  
20182   $ 109,400     $ 70,300     $ 54,700  

 

The allowable exemption amount is reduced by $0.25 for each $1.00 by which alternative minimum taxable income for the year exceeds the following amounts:

 

Year:   Joint Returns:     Single Returns:     Separate Returns:  
20183   $ 1,000,000     $ 500,000     $ 500,000  

 

This means, for example, in 2018, the $109,400 exemption amount is phased out completely for married individuals filing joint returns when their alternative minimum taxable income reaches $1,437,600 [($109,400 ÷ $0.25) + $1,000,000].

 

Application Of AMT When ISO Is Exercised

 

As noted above, when an ISO is exercised, the spread is included in AMTI at the time of exercise.

 

A special rule applies if you dispose of the Purchased Shares in the same year in which you exercised the ISO. If the amount you realize on the sale is less than the value of the stock at the time of exercise, then the amount includible in AMTI on account of the ISO exercise is limited to the gain realized on the sale.4

 

 

 

 2 Amounts are indexed for inflation in future years.

 

3 Amounts are indexed for inflation in future years.

 

4 This is similar to the rule that applies under the regular tax system in the event of a disqualifying disposition of ISO stock. The amount of ordinary income that must be recognized in that case generally does not exceed the amount of the gain realized in the disposition.

 

4

 

 

To the extent that your AMT is attributable to the spread on exercising an ISO (and certain other items), you may be able to apply the AMT that you paid as a credit against your income tax liability in future years. But the rules on calculating the available tax credits were amended frequently in recent years and have become extraordinarily complex. On this issue in particular, you must consult your own tax adviser.

 

When Purchased Shares are sold, your basis for purposes of computing the capital gain or loss under the AMT system is increased by the option spread that exists at the time of exercise. Again, an ISO is treated under the AMT system much like an NSO is treated under the regular tax system. But your basis in the ISO shares for purposes of computing gain or loss under the regular tax system does not reflect any AMT that you pay on the spread at exercise. Therefore, if you pay AMT in the year of the ISO exercise and regular income tax in the year of selling the Purchased Shares, you could pay tax twice on the same gain (except to the extent that you can use the AMT credit described above).

 

Section 409a Of The Internal Revenue Code

 

The preceding summary assumes that section 409A of the Internal Revenue Code does not apply to your option. In general, your option is exempt from section 409A if the exercise price per share is at least equal to the fair market value per share of the Company’s Class A Common Stock at the time the option was granted by the Board of Directors. Since shares of Class A Common Stock are not traded on an established securities market, the determination of their fair market value generally is made by the Board of Directors or by an independent appraisal firm retained by the Company. In either case, there is no guarantee that the Internal Revenue Service will agree with the valuation.

 

If your option were found to be subject to section 409A, then you would be required to recognize ordinary income as early as the year in which the option (or portion thereof) vests. This amount would also be subject to a 20% federal tax in addition to the federal income tax at your usual marginal rate for ordinary income. Additional state income taxes may apply in some states.

2018 STOCK PLAN

 

RESTRICTED STOCK AGREEMENT

 

This Restricted Stock Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of _________ by and between Space Apprentices Enterprise Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ________(“Participant”) pursuant to the Company’s 2018 Stock Plan (the “Plan”), which is attached to and made a part of this Agreement. Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, capitalized terms used in this Agreement shall have the meaning given to them in the Plan.

 

1. Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Company hereby grants to Participant ______ shares of the Company’s Common Stock (the “Shares”) as consideration of services rendered by Participant to the Company. As used elsewhere herein, the term “Shares” refers to all of the Shares purchased hereunder and all securities received in connection with the Shares pursuant to stock dividends or splits, all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property to which Participant is entitled by reason of Participant’s ownership of the Shares. Shares that have not yet vested as of a given time pursuant to the vesting schedule in Section 2 below are referred to herein as “Unvested Shares”.

 

2. Vesting Schedule. _______ of the Shares shall initially be subject to vesting. The Unvested Shares shall vest in accordance with the Vesting Schedule set forth in the Notice of Restricted Stock Award; provided, however, that such vesting shall immediately cease as of the Termination Date. Fractional shares shall be rounded to the nearest whole share.

 

3. Limitations on Transfer. In addition to any other limitation on transfer created by the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 12 of the Plan or by Applicable Laws, Participant shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares except to the extent permitted by, and in compliance with the provisions below and Applicable Laws.

 

(a) Forfeiture Upon Termination of Participant’s Continuous Service Status. Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, in the event of any voluntary or involuntary termination of Participant’s Continuous Service Status prior to vesting pursuant to the Vesting Schedule set forth in Section 2 above for any reason (including death or Disability), with or without Cause, the then Unvested Shares will thereupon be forfeited and automatically transferred to and reacquired by the Company at no cost to the Company (the “Unvested Share Forfeiture”) upon the date of such termination (the “Termination Date”) and Participant will have no further rights or interests with respect to such Unvested Shares.

(b) Transfer Restrictions; Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Participant or any transferee of Participant (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company shall have the right to approve such transfer, in its sole and absolute discretion. If the Holder would like to transfer any Shares, the Holder must provide the Company or its assignee(s) with a right of first refusal to purchase the Shares on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3(b) (the “Right of First Refusal”), which the Company may either (1) exercise its Right of First Refusal and purchase the Shares as forth in this Section 3(b), (2) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal and permit the transfer of the Shares to the Proposed Transferee (as defined below), or (3) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal and reject any transfer of the Shares.

 

(i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (A) the Holder’s intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (B) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (C) the number of Shares to be transferred to each Proposed Transferee; (D) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer, including (without limitation) the purchase price for such Shares (the “Transfer Purchase Price”); and (E) the Holder’s offer to the Company or its assignee(s) to purchase the Shares at the Transfer Purchase Price and upon the same terms (or terms as similar as reasonably possible).

 

(ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) may, by giving written notice to the Holder, elect to reject the proposed transfer, in full or in part, or elect to purchase any or all of the Shares proposed to be transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the Transfer Purchase Price, provided that if the Transfer Purchase Price consists of no legal consideration (as, for example, in the case of a transfer by gift), the purchase price will be the fair market value of the Shares as determined in good faith by the Company. If the Transfer Purchase Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Company in good faith.

 

(iii) Payment. Payment of the Transfer Purchase Price shall be made, at the election of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness or by any combination thereof within 60 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times mutually agreed to by the Company (or its assignee(s)) and the Holder.

 

(iv) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If any of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are both (A) not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(b) and (B) approved by the Company to be transferred, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer any unpurchased Shares to the Proposed Transferee at the Transfer Purchase Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date of the Notice and provided further that any such sale or other transfer is effected in accordance with Applicable Laws and any other applicable transfer restrictions, including the transfer restrictions set forth in Plan, and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the provisions of this Section 3 and the waiver of statutory information rights in Section 10 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. The Company, in consultation with its legal counsel, may require the Holder to provide an opinion of counsel evidencing compliance with Applicable Laws. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again have the right to approve such transfer and be offered the Right of First Refusal.

(v) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(b) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Holder’s lifetime or on Holder’s death by will or intestacy to Holder’s Immediate Family or to a trust for the benefit of Holder or Holder’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 3(b). “Immediate Family” as used in this Agreement shall mean lineal descendant or antecedent, spouse (or spouse’s antecedents), father, mother, brother or sister (or their descendants), stepchild (or their antecedents or descendants), aunt or uncle (or their antecedents or descendants), brother-in-law or sister-in-law (or their antecedents or descendants) and shall include adoptive relationships, or any person sharing Holder’s household (other than a tenant or an employee). In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of this Section 3 and Section 10, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3.

 

(c) Company’s Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In the event of any transfer by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(b)(v) above) of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have the right to purchase any or all of the Shares transferred at the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of transfer (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion). Upon such a transfer, the Holder shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of 30 days following receipt by the Company of written notice from the Holder.

 

(d) Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any holder or holders of capital stock of the Company or other persons or organizations.

 

(e) Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the provisions of this Agreement and the Plan, including, without limitation, Sections 3 and 10 of this Agreement and Section 12 of the Plan and, insofar as applicable, the forfeiture provision in Section 3(a) above. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied.

 

(f) Termination of Rights. The transfer restrictions set forth in Section 3(b) above and Section 12 of the Plan, the Right of First Refusal granted the Company by Section 3(b) above and the right to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 3(c) above shall terminate upon (i) the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement relating solely to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to a business combination or an employee incentive or benefit plan) or (ii) any transfer or conversion of Shares made pursuant to a statutory merger or statutory consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or corporations if the common stock of the surviving corporation or any direct or indirect parent corporation thereof is registered under the Exchange Act. Upon termination of such transfer restrictions, the Company will remove any stop-transfer notices referred to in Section 7(b) below and related to the restrictions in this Section 3 and a new stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, notice of issuance, for the Shares not repurchased or forfeited shall be issued, on request, without the legend referred to in Section 7(a)(ii) below.

(g) Lock-Up Agreement. If so requested by the Company or the underwriters in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Participant shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however or whenever acquired (except for those being registered) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for 180 days from the effective date of the registration statement, plus such additional period, to the extent required by FINRA rules, up to a maximum of 216 days from the effective date of the registration statement, and Participant shall execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of such offering.

 

4. Escrow of Unvested Shares. For purposes of facilitating the enforcement of the provisions of Section 3 above, Participant agrees to deliver a Stock Power in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A executed by Participant and by Participant’s spouse (if required for transfer), in blank, and such stock certificate(s), if any, to the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, to hold such Shares (and stock certificate(s), if any) and Stock Power in escrow and to take all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or releases as are required in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Participant hereby acknowledges that the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, is so appointed as the escrow holder with the foregoing authorities as a material inducement to make this Agreement and that said appointment is coupled with an interest and is accordingly irrevocable. Participant agrees that said escrow holder shall not be liable to any party hereof (or to any other party). The escrow holder may rely upon any letter, notice or other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may resign at any time. Participant agrees that if the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, resigns as escrow holder for any or no reason, the Board shall have the power to appoint a successor to serve as escrow holder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement

 

5. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the receipt of the Shares, Participant represents to the Company the following:

 

(a) Participant is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Participant is receiving the Shares for investment for Participant’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Participant does not have any present intention to transfer the Shares to any other person or entity.

 

4

 

 

(b) Participant understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Participant’s investment intent as expressed herein.

 

(c) Participant further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Participant further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the securities.

 

(d) Participant is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Participant understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things, that the Company be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section 5(d), Participant acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 5(e) below.

 

(e) Participant further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

 

(f) Participant represents that Participant is not subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act (attached hereto as Annex I).

 

(g) Participant understands that Participant may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Participant’s receipt or disposition of the Shares. Participant represents that Participant has consulted any tax consultants Participant deems advisable in connection with the receipt or disposition of the Shares and that Participant is not relying on the Company for any tax advice.

 

6. Voting Provisions. As a condition precedent to entering into this Agreement, at the request of the Company, Participant shall become a party to any voting agreement to which the Company is a party at the time of Participant’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, as such voting agreement may be thereafter amended from time to time (the “Voting Agreement”), by executing an adoption agreement or counterpart signature page agreeing to be bound by and subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement and to vote the Shares in the capacity of a “Common Holder” and a “Stockholder,” as such terms may be defined in the Voting Agreement.

7. Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.

 

(a) Legends. Any stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, notice of issuance, for the Shares shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by the Company or applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws):

 

(i) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”

 

(ii) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE COMPANY AND THE STOCKHOLDER, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH AND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY AT NO CHARGE.”

 

(iii) “THE TRANSFER OF SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN IS SUBJECT TO RESTRICTIONS REQUIRING APPROVAL OF THE COMPANY PURSUANT TO AND IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE COMPANY’S STOCK PLAN, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT REGISTER OR OTHERWISE RECOGNIZE OR GIVE EFFECT TO ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER OF SHARES OF STOCK THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE COMPANY’S STOCK PLAN.”

 

(iv) Any legend required by the Voting Agreement, as applicable.

 

(b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Participant agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

 

(c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

 

(d) Required Notices. Participant acknowledges that the Shares are issued and shall be held subject to all the provisions of this Section 7, the Certificate of Incorporation and the Bylaws of the Company and any amendments thereto, copies of which are on file at the principal office of the Company. A statement of all of the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions granted to or imposed upon the respective classes and/or series of shares of stock of the Company and upon the holders thereof may be obtained by any stockholder upon request and without charge, at the principal office of the Company, and the Company will furnish any stockholder, upon request and without charge, a copy of such statement. Participant acknowledges that the provisions of this Section 7 shall constitute the notices required by Sections 151(f) and 202(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law and the Participant hereby expressly waives the requirement of Section 151(f) of the Delaware General Corporation Law that it receive the written notice provided for in Sections 151(f) and 202(a) of the Delaware General Corporation Law within a reasonable time after the issuance of the Shares.

8. No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever any right with respect to continuation of an employment or consulting relationship with the Company (any parent, subsidiary or affiliate), nor shall it interfere in any way with such employee’s or consultant’s right or the Company’s (parent’s, subsidiary’s or affiliate’s) right to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without Cause.

 

9. Section 83(b) Election. Participant understands that Section 83(a) of the Code taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount paid, if any, for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, “restriction” means the right of the Company to receive the Shares pursuant to the forfeiture provision set forth in Section 3(a) above, insofar as applicable. Participant understands that Participant may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are granted, rather than when and as such shares vest, by filing an election under Section 83(b) (an “83(b) Election”) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the date of grant of the Shares. Even if the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time of the execution of this Agreement equals the amount paid for the Shares, the election must be made to avoid income under Section 83(a) in the future. Participant understands that failure to file such an election in a timely manner may result in adverse tax consequences for Participant. Participant further understands that an additional copy of such election form should be filed with Participant’s federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls. Participant acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States federal income taxation with respect to grant of the Shares hereunder, does not purport to be complete, and is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purposes of avoiding taxpayer penalties. Participant further acknowledges that the Company has directed Participant to seek independent advice regarding the applicable provisions of the Code, the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which Participant may reside, and the tax consequences of Participant’s death, and Participant has consulted, and has been fully advised by, Participant’s own tax advisor regarding such tax laws and tax consequences or has knowingly chosen not to consult such a tax advisor. Participant further acknowledges that neither the Company nor any subsidiary or representative of the Company has made any warranty or representation to Participant with respect to the tax consequences of Participant’s receipt of the Shares or of the making or failure to make an 83(b) Election.

 

Unless Participant executes and delivers to the Company with this executed Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and Statement of Decision Regarding Section 83(b) Election attached hereto as Exhibit B indicating that Participant has decided not to make an election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code, Participant’s execution of this Agreement indicates that Participant has decided to make an 83(b) Election and Participant agrees to furnish to the Company a copy of a manually executed form entitled “Election Under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986,” attached hereto as Exhibit C. PARTICIPANT (AND NOT THE COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR ANY OTHER PERSON) SHALL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROPRIATELY FILING SUCH FORM WITH THE IRS, EVEN IF PARTICIPANT REQUESTS THE COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR ANY OTHER PERSON MAKE THIS FILING ON PARTICIPANT’S BEHALF.

10. Waiver of Statutory Information Rights. Participant acknowledges and understands that, but for the waiver made herein, Participant would be entitled, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, to inspect for any proper purpose, and to make copies and extracts from, the Company’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records, and the books and records of subsidiaries of the Company, if any, under the circumstances and in the manner provided in Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (any and all such rights, and any and all such other rights of Participant as may be provided for in Section 220, the “Inspection Rights”). In light of the foregoing, until the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Participant hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives the Inspection Rights, whether such Inspection Rights would be exercised or pursued directly or indirectly pursuant to Section 220 or otherwise, and covenants and agrees never to directly or indirectly commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute, assign, transfer, or cause to be commenced any claim, action, cause of action, or other proceeding to pursue or exercise the Inspection Rights. The foregoing waiver applies to the Inspection Rights of Participant in Participant’s capacity as a stockholder and shall not affect any rights of a director, in his or her capacity as such, under Section 220. The foregoing waiver shall not apply to any contractual inspection rights of Participant under any written agreement with the Company.

(f) Severability. If one or more provisions of this Agreement are held to be unenforceable under Applicable Laws, the parties agree to renegotiate such provision in good faith. In the event that the parties cannot reach a mutually agreeable and enforceable replacement for such provision, then (i) such provision shall be excluded from this Agreement, (ii) the balance of the Agreement shall be interpreted as if such provision were so excluded and (iii) the balance of the Agreement shall be enforceable in accordance with its terms.

 

(g) Construction. This Agreement is the result of negotiations between and has been reviewed by each of the parties hereto and their respective counsel, if any; accordingly, this Agreement shall be deemed to be the product of all of the parties hereto, and no ambiguity shall be construed in favor of or against any one of the parties hereto.

 

(h) Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be deemed an original, and all of which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

(j) Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right to impose other requirements on Participant’s participation in the Plan and on any Award or Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with Applicable Law or facilitate the administration of the Plan. Participant agrees to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Furthermore, Participant acknowledges that the laws of the country in which Participant is working at the time of grant of this Agreement, the purchase, vesting or sale of Shares received pursuant to this Agreement (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor, or other matters) may subject Participant to additional procedural or regulatory requirements that Participant is and will be solely responsible for and must fulfill.

 

(k) No Acquired Rights. In accepting the Award, Participant acknowledges that the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of the Award is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Awards or benefits in lieu of Awards, even if Awards have been granted repeatedly in the past, and all decisions with respect to future grants of Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company. In addition, Participant’s participation in the Plan is voluntary, and the Award and the Shares subject to the Award are extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate and are outside the scope of Participant’s employment contract, if any. The Award and the Shares subject to the Award are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation and are not part of normal or expected salary or compensation for any purpose, including but not limited to calculating severance payments, if any, upon termination.

 

(l) Data Privacy. Participant hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, in electronic or other form, of Participant’s personal data (as described below) by and among, as applicable, the Company and any Subsdiary or Affiliate for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing Participant’s participation in the Plan. Participant understands that refusal or withdrawal of consent may affect Participant’s ability to participate in the Plan or to realize benefits from the Award.

 

Participant understands that the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate may hold certain personal information about Participant, including, but not limited to, Participant’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, details of all Awards or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Participant’s favor (“Personal Data”). Participant understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the United States, Participant’s country, or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Participant’s country.

 

(m) California Corporate Securities Law. THE SALE OF THE SECURITIES WHICH ARE THE SUBJECT OF THIS AGREEMENT HAS NOT BEEN QUALIFIED WITH THE COMMISSIONER OF CORPORATIONS OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA AND THE ISSUANCE OF THE SECURITIES OR THE PAYMENT OR RECEIPT OF ANY PART OF THE CONSIDERATION THEREFOR PRIOR TO THE QUALIFICATION IS UNLAWFUL, UNLESS THE SALE OF SECURITIES IS EXEMPT FROM QUALIFICATION BY SECTION 25100, 25102 OR 25105 OF THE CALIFORNIA CORPORATIONS CODE.

4. Administration of the Plan.

(b) Committee Composition. If a Committee has been appointed pursuant to this Section 4, such Committee shall continue to serve in its designated capacity until otherwise directed by the Board.

(iv) to approve the form(s) of agreement(s) and other related documents used under the Plan;

 

(v) to determine the terms and conditions, not inconsistent with the terms of the Plan, of any Award granted hereunder, which terms and conditions include but are not limited to the exercise or purchase price, the time or times when Awards may vest and/or be exercised (which may be based on performance criteria), the circumstances (if any) when vesting will be accelerated or forfeiture restrictions will be waived, and any restriction or limitation regarding any Award, Optioned Stock, or Restricted Stock;

 

(vi) to amend any outstanding Award or agreement related to any Optioned Stock or Restricted Stock, including any amendment adjusting vesting (e.g., in connection with a change in the terms or conditions under which such person is providing services to the Company), provided that no amendment shall be made that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant without his or her consent;

 

(vii) to determine whether and under what circumstances an Option may be settled in cash under Section 7(c)(iii) below instead of Class A Common Stock;

 

(viii) subject to Applicable Laws, to implement an Option Exchange Program and establish the terms and conditions of such Option Exchange Program without consent of the holders of capital stock of the Company, provided that no amendment or adjustment to an Option that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant shall be made without his or her consent;

 

(ix) to approve addenda pursuant to Section 18 below or to grant Awards to, or to modify the terms of, any outstanding Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement or any agreement related to any Optioned Stock or Restricted Stock held by Participants who are foreign nationals or employed outside of the United States with such terms and conditions as the Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom which deviate from the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan to the extent necessary or appropriate to accommodate such differences; and

 

(x) to construe and interpret the terms of the Plan, any Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement, and any agreement related to any Optioned Stock or Restricted Stock, which constructions, interpretations and decisions shall be final and binding on all Participants.

(d) Indemnification. To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Laws, each member of the Committee (including officers of the Company, if applicable), or of the Board, as applicable, shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Company against and from (i) any loss, cost, liability, or expense that may be imposed upon or reasonably incurred by him or her in connection with or resulting from any claim, action, suit, or proceeding to which he or she may be a party or in which he or she may be involved by reason of any action taken or failure to act under the Plan or pursuant to the terms and conditions of any Award except for actions taken in bad faith or failures to act in good faith, and (ii) any and all amounts paid by him or her in settlement thereof, with the Company’s approval, or paid by him or her in satisfaction of any judgment in any such claim, action, suit, or proceeding against him or her, provided that such member shall give the Company an opportunity, at its own expense, to handle and defend any such claim, action, suit or proceeding before he or she undertakes to handle and defend it on his or her own behalf. The foregoing right of indemnification shall not be exclusive of any other rights of indemnification to which such persons may be entitled under the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation or Bylaws, by contract, as a matter of law, or otherwise, or under any other power that the Company may have to indemnify or hold harmless each such person.

 

5. Eligibility.

For purposes of this Section 5(c), incentive stock options shall be taken into account in the order in which they were granted, and the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to an incentive stock option shall be determined as of the date of the grant of such option.

 

(d) No Employment Rights. Neither the Plan nor any Award shall confer upon any Employee or Consultant any right with respect to continuation of an employment or consulting relationship with the Company (any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate), nor shall it interfere in any way with such Employee’s or Consultant’s right or the Company’s (Parent’s, Subsidiary’s or Affiliate’s) right to terminate his or her employment or consulting relationship at any time, with or without cause.

 

6. Term of Plan. The Plan shall become effective upon its adoption by the Board and shall continue in effect for a term of 10 years unless sooner terminated under Section 14 below.

(b) Option Exercise Price and Consideration.

 

(i) Exercise Price. The per Share exercise price for the Shares to be issued pursuant to the exercise of an Option shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator and set forth in the Option Agreement, but shall be subject to the following:

 

(1) In the case of an Incentive Stock Option

 

a. granted to an Employee who at the time of grant is a Ten Percent Holder, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 110% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant;

 

b. granted to any other Employee, the per Share exercise price shall be no less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant;

 

(2) Except as provided in subsection (3) below, in the case of a Nonstatutory Stock Option the per Share exercise price shall be such price as is determined by the Administrator, provided that, if the per Share exercise price is less than 100% of the Fair Market Value on the date of grant, it shall otherwise comply with all Applicable Laws, including Section 409A of the Code; and

 

(3) Notwithstanding the foregoing, Options may be granted with a per Share exercise price other than as required above pursuant to a merger or other corporate transaction.

 

(ii) Permissible Consideration. The consideration to be paid for the Shares to be issued upon exercise of an Option, including the method of payment, shall be determined by the Administrator (and, in the case of an Incentive Stock Option and to the extent required by Applicable Laws, shall be determined at the time of grant) and may consist entirely of (1) cash; (2) check; (3)  to the extent permitted under, and in accordance with, Applicable Laws, delivery of a promissory note with such recourse, interest, security and redemption provisions as the Administrator determines to be appropriate (subject to the provisions of Section 152 of the Delaware General Corporation Law); (4) cancellation of indebtedness; (5) other previously owned Shares that have a Fair Market Value on the date of surrender equal to the aggregate exercise price of the Shares as to which the Option is exercised; (6) a Cashless Exercise; (7) such other consideration and method of payment permitted under Applicable Laws; or (8) any combination of the foregoing methods of payment. In making its determination as to the type of consideration to accept, the Administrator shall consider if acceptance of such consideration may be reasonably expected to benefit the Company and the Administrator may, in its sole discretion, refuse to accept a particular form of consideration at the time of any Option exercise.

 

-9-

 

 

(c) Exercise of Option.

 

(i) General.

 

(1) Exercisability. Any Option granted hereunder shall be exercisable at such times and under such conditions as determined by the Administrator, consistent with the terms of the Plan and reflected in the Option Agreement, including vesting requirements and/or performance criteria with respect to the Company, and Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, and/or the Optionee.

 

(2) Leave of Absence. The Administrator shall have the discretion to determine at any time whether and to what extent the vesting of Options shall be tolled during any leave of absence; provided, however, that in the absence of such determination, vesting of Options shall continue during any paid leave and shall be tolled during any unpaid leave (unless otherwise required by Applicable Laws). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of military leave, vesting shall toll during any unpaid portion of such leave, provided that, upon an Optionee’s returning from military leave (under conditions that would entitle him or her to protection upon such return under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, as amended), he or she shall be given vesting credit with respect to Options to the same extent as would have applied had the Optionee continued to provide services to the Company (or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, if applicable) throughout the leave on the same terms as he or she was providing services immediately prior to such leave.

 

(3) Minimum Exercise Requirements. An Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a Share. The Administrator may require that an Option be exercised as to a minimum number of Shares, provided that such requirement shall not prevent an Optionee from exercising the full number of Shares as to which the Option is then exercisable.

 

(4) Procedures for and Results of Exercise. An Option shall be deemed exercised when written notice of such exercise has been received by the Company in accordance with the terms of the Option Agreement by the person entitled to exercise the Option and the Company has received full payment for the Shares with respect to which the Option is exercised and has paid, or made arrangements to satisfy, any applicable taxes, withholding, required deductions or other required payments in accordance with Section 9 below. The exercise of an Option shall result in a decrease in the number of Shares that thereafter may be available, both for purposes of the Plan and for sale under the Option, by the number of Shares as to which the Option is exercised.

 

(5) Rights as Holder of Capital Stock. Until the issuance of the Shares (as evidenced by the appropriate entry on the books of the Company or of a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company), no right to vote or receive dividends or any other rights as a holder of capital stock shall exist with respect to the Optioned Stock, notwithstanding the exercise of the Option. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the stock is issued, except as provided in Section 10 below.

 

(ii) Termination of Continuous Service Status. The Administrator shall establish and set forth in the applicable Option Agreement the terms and conditions upon which an Option shall remain exercisable, if at all, following termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status, which provisions may be waived or modified by the Administrator at any time. To the extent that an Option Agreement does not specify the terms and conditions upon which an Option shall terminate upon termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status, the following provisions shall apply:

 

(1) General Provisions. If the Optionee (or other person entitled to exercise the Option) does not exercise the Option to the extent so entitled within the time specified below, the Option shall terminate and the Optioned Stock underlying the unexercised portion of the Option shall revert to the Plan. In no event may any Option be exercised after the expiration of the Option term as set forth in the Option Agreement (and subject to this Section 7).

 

-10-

 

 

(2) Termination other than Upon Disability or Death or for Cause. In the event of termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status other than under the circumstances set forth in the subsections (3) through (5) below, such Optionee may exercise any outstanding Option at any time within 3 months following such termination to the extent the Optionee is vested in the Optioned Stock.

 

(3) Disability of Optionee. In the event of termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status as a result of his or her Disability, such Optionee may exercise any outstanding Option at any time within 12 months following such termination to the extent the Optionee is vested in the Optioned Stock.

 

(4) Death of Optionee. In the event of the death of an Optionee during the period of Continuous Service Status since the date of grant of any outstanding Option, or within 3 months following termination of the Optionee’s Continuous Service Status, the Option may be exercised by any beneficiaries designated in accordance with Section 16 below, or if there are no such beneficiaries, by the Optionee’s estate, or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, at any time within 12 months following the date the Optionee’s Continuous Service Status terminated, but only to the extent the Optionee is vested in the Optioned Stock.

 

(5) Termination for Cause. In the event of termination of an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status for Cause, any outstanding Option (including any vested portion thereof) held by such Optionee shall immediately terminate in its entirety upon first notification to the Optionee of termination of the Optionee’s Continuous Service Status for Cause. If an Optionee’s Continuous Service Status is suspended pending an investigation of whether the Optionee’s Continuous Service Status will be terminated for Cause, all the Optionee’s rights under any Option, including the right to exercise the Option, shall be suspended during the investigation period. Nothing in this Section 7(c)(ii)(5) shall in any way limit the Company’s right to purchase unvested Shares issued upon exercise of an Option as set forth in the applicable Option Agreement.

 

(iii) Buyout Provisions. The Administrator may at any time offer to buy out for a payment in cash or Shares an Option previously granted under the Plan based on such terms and conditions as the Administrator shall establish and communicate to the Optionee at the time that such offer is made.

 

-11-

 

 

8. Restricted Stock.

 

(a) Rights to Purchase. When a right to purchase or receive Restricted Stock is granted under the Plan, the Company shall advise the recipient in writing of the terms, conditions and restrictions related to the offer, including the number of Shares that such person shall be entitled to purchase, the price to be paid, if any (which shall be as determined by the Administrator, subject to Applicable Laws, including any applicable securities laws), and the time within which such person must accept such offer. The permissible consideration for Restricted Stock shall be determined by the Administrator and shall be the same as is set forth in Section 7(b)(ii) above with respect to exercise of Options. The offer to purchase Shares shall be accepted by execution of a Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement in the form determined by the Administrator.

 

(b) Repurchase Option.

 

(i) General. Unless the Administrator determines otherwise, the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall grant the Company a repurchase option exercisable upon the voluntary or involuntary termination of the Participant’s Continuous Service Status for any reason (including death or Disability) at a purchase price for Shares equal to the original purchase price paid by the purchaser to the Company for such Shares and may be paid by cancellation of any indebtedness of the purchaser to the Company. The repurchase option shall lapse at such rate as the Administrator may determine.

 

(ii) Leave of Absence. The Administrator shall have the discretion to determine at any time whether and to what extent the lapsing of Company repurchase rights shall be tolled during any leave of absence; provided, however, that in the absence of such determination, such lapsing shall continue during any paid leave and shall be tolled during any unpaid leave (unless otherwise required by Applicable Laws). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of military leave, the lapsing of Company repurchase rights shall toll during any unpaid portion of such leave, provided that, upon a Participant’s returning from military leave (under conditions that would entitle him or her to protection upon such return under the Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act of 1994, as amended), he or she shall be given vesting credit with respect to Shares purchased pursuant to the Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement to the same extent as would have applied had the Participant continued to provide services to the Company (or any Parent, Subsidiary or Affiliate, if applicable) throughout the leave on the same terms as he or she was providing services immediately prior to such leave.

 

(c) Other Provisions. The Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement shall contain such other terms, provisions and conditions not inconsistent with the Plan as may be determined by the Administrator in its sole discretion. In addition, the provisions of Restricted Stock Purchase Agreements need not be the same with respect to each Participant.

 

(d) Rights as a Holder of Capital Stock. Once the Restricted Stock is purchased, the Participant shall have the rights equivalent to those of a holder of capital stock, and shall be a record holder when his or her purchase and the issuance of the Shares is entered upon the records of the duly authorized transfer agent of the Company. No adjustment will be made for a dividend or other right for which the record date is prior to the date the Restricted Stock is purchased, except as provided in Section 10 below.

 

-12-

 

 

9. Taxes.

 

(a) As a condition of the grant, vesting and exercise of an Award, the Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death or a permitted transferee, the person holding or exercising the Award) shall make such arrangements as the Administrator may require for the satisfaction of any applicable U.S. federal, state, local or foreign tax, withholding, and any other required deductions or payments that may arise in connection with such Award. The Company shall not be required to issue any Shares under the Plan until such obligations are satisfied.

 

(b) The Administrator may, to the extent permitted under Applicable Laws, permit a Participant (or in the case of the Participant’s death or a permitted transferee, the person holding or exercising the Award) to satisfy all or part of his or her tax, withholding, or any other required deductions or payments by Cashless Exercise or by surrendering Shares (either directly or by stock attestation) that he or she previously acquired; provided that, unless specifically permitted by the Company, any such Cashless Exercise must be an approved broker-assisted Cashless Exercise or the Shares withheld in the Cashless Exercise must be limited to avoid financial accounting charges under applicable accounting guidance and any such surrendered Shares must have been previously held for any minimum duration required to avoid financial accounting charges under applicable accounting guidance. Any payment of taxes by surrendering Shares to the Company may be subject to restrictions, including, but not limited to, any restrictions required by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission.

 

10. Adjustments Upon Changes in Capitalization, Merger or Certain Other Transactions.

 

(a) Changes in Capitalization. Subject to any action required under Applicable Laws by the holders of capital stock of the Company, (i) the numbers and class of Shares or other stock or securities: (x) available for future Awards under Section 3 above and (y) covered by each outstanding Award, (ii) the exercise price per Share of each such outstanding Option, and (iii) any repurchase price per Share applicable to Shares issued pursuant to any Award, shall be automatically proportionately adjusted in the event of a stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, combination, consolidation, reclassification of the Shares or subdivision of the Shares. In the event of any increase or decrease in the number of issued Shares effected without receipt of consideration by the Company, a declaration of an extraordinary dividend with respect to the Shares payable in a form other than Shares in an amount that has a material effect on the Fair Market Value, a recapitalization (including a recapitalization through a large nonrecurring cash dividend), a rights offering, a reorganization, merger, a spin-off, split-up, change in corporate structure or a similar occurrence, the Administrator shall make appropriate adjustments, in its discretion, in one or more of (i) the numbers and class of Shares or other stock or securities: (x) available for future Awards under Section 3 above and (y) covered by each outstanding Award, (ii) the exercise price per Share of each outstanding Option and (iii) any repurchase price per Share applicable to Shares issued pursuant to any Award, and any such adjustment by the Administrator shall be made in the Administrator’s sole and absolute discretion and shall be final, binding and conclusive. Except as expressly provided herein, no issuance by the Company of shares of stock of any class, or securities convertible into shares of stock of any class, shall affect, and no adjustment by reason thereof shall be made with respect to, the number or price of Shares subject to an Award. If, by reason of a transaction described in this Section 10(a) or an adjustment pursuant to this Section 10(a), a Participant’s Award agreement or agreement related to any Optioned Stock or Restricted Stock covers additional or different shares of stock or securities, then such additional or different shares, and the Award agreement or agreement related to the Optioned Stock or Restricted Stock in respect thereof, shall be subject to all of the terms, conditions and restrictions which were applicable to the Award, Optioned Stock and Restricted Stock prior to such adjustment.

 

-13-

 

 

(b) Dissolution or Liquidation. In the event of the dissolution or liquidation of the Company, each Award will terminate immediately prior to the consummation of such action, unless otherwise determined by the Administrator.

 

(c) Corporate Transactions. In the event of (i) a transfer of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets, (ii) a merger, consolidation or other capital reorganization or business combination transaction of the Company with or into another corporation, entity or person, or (iii) the consummation of a transaction, or series of related transactions, in which any “person” (as such term is used in Sections 13(d) and 14(d) of the Exchange Act) becomes the “beneficial owner” (as defined in Rule 13d-3 of the Exchange Act), directly or indirectly, of more than 50% of the Company’s then outstanding capital stock (a “Corporate Transaction”), each outstanding Award (vested or unvested) will be treated as the Administrator determines, which determination may be made without the consent of any Participant and need not treat all outstanding Awards (or portion thereof) in an identical manner. Such determination, without the consent of any Participant, may provide (without limitation) for one or more of the following in the event of a Corporate Transaction: (A) the continuation of such outstanding Awards by the Company (if the Company is the surviving corporation); (B) the assumption of such outstanding Awards by the surviving corporation or its parent; (C) the substitution by the surviving corporation or its parent of new options or equity awards for such Awards; (D) the cancellation of such Awards in exchange for a payment to the Participants equal to the excess of (1) the Fair Market Value of the Shares subject to such Awards as of the closing date of such Corporate Transaction over (2) the exercise price or purchase price paid or to be paid for the Shares subject to the Awards; or (E) the cancellation of any outstanding Options or an outstanding right to purchase Restricted Stock, in either case, for no consideration. Notwithstanding anything under this Plan, any Award agreement or otherwise, any escrow, holdback, earn-out or similar provisions agreed to pursuant to, or in connection with, a Corporate Transaction shall, unless otherwise determined by the Board, apply to any payment or other right a Participant may be entitled to under this Plan, if any, to the same extent and in the same manner as such provisions apply generally to the holders of the Company’s Class A Common Stock with respect to the Corporate Transaction, but only to the extent permitted by Applicable Law, including (without limitation), Section 409A of the Code.

 

-14-

 

 

11. Non-Transferability of Awards.

 

(a) General. Except as set forth in this Section 11, Awards (or any rights of such Awards) may not be sold, pledged, encumbered, assigned, hypothecated, or disposed of or otherwise transferred in any manner other than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution. The designation of a beneficiary by a Participant will not constitute a transfer. An Option may be exercised, during the lifetime of the holder of the Option, only by such holder or a transferee permitted by this Section 11.

 

(b) Limited Transferability Rights. Notwithstanding anything else in this Section 11, the Administrator may in its sole discretion provide that any Nonstatutory Stock Options may be transferred by instrument to an inter vivos or testamentary trust in which the Options are to be passed to beneficiaries upon the death of the trustor (settlor) or by gift to Family Members. Further, beginning with (i) the period when the Company begins to rely on the exemption described in Rule 12h-1(f)(1) promulgated under the Exchange Act, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, and (ii) ending on the earlier of (A) the date when the Company ceases to rely on such exemption, as determined by the Board in its sole discretion, or (B) the date when the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act, an Option, or prior to exercise, the Shares subject to the Option, may not be pledged, hypothecated or otherwise transferred or disposed of, in any manner, including by entering into any short position, any “put equivalent position” or any “call equivalent position” (as defined in Rule 16a-1(h) and Rule 16a-1(b) of the Exchange Act, respectively), other than to (i) persons who are Family Members through gifts or domestic relations orders, or (ii) to an executor or guardian of the Participant upon the death or disability of the Participant. Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, the Board, in its sole discretion, may permit transfers of Nonstatutory Stock Options to the Company or in connection with a Change of Control or other acquisition transactions involving the Company to the extent permitted by Rule 12h-1(f).

 

12. Non-Transferability of Stock Underlying Awards.

 

(a) General. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no Participant or other stockholder shall Transfer (as such term is defined below) any Shares (or any rights of or interests in such Shares) acquired pursuant to any Award (including, without limitation, Shares acquired upon exercise of an Option) to any person or entity unless such Transfer is approved by the Company prior to such Transfer, which approval may be granted or withheld in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion. “Transfer” shall mean, with respect to any security, the direct or indirect assignment, sale, transfer, tender, pledge, hypothecation, or the grant, creation or suffrage of a lien or encumbrance in or upon, or the gift, placement in trust, or the Constructive Sale (as such term is defined below) or other disposition of such security (including transfer by testamentary or intestate succession, merger or otherwise by operation of law) or any right, title or interest therein (including, but not limited to, any right or power to vote to which the holder thereof may be entitled, whether such right or power is granted by proxy or otherwise), or the record or beneficial ownership thereof, the offer to make such a sale, transfer, Constructive Sale or other disposition, and each agreement, arrangement or understanding, whether or not in writing, to effect any of the foregoing. “Constructive Sale” shall mean, with respect to any security, a short sale with respect to such security, entering into or acquiring an offsetting derivative contract with respect to such security, entering into or acquiring a futures or forward contract to deliver such security, or entering into any other hedging or other derivative transaction that has the effect of materially changing the economic benefits and risks of ownership. Any purported Transfer effected in violation of this Section 12 shall be null and void and shall have no force or effect and the Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of the Plan or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

 

-15-

 

 

(b) Approval Process. Any Participant or stockholder seeking the approval of the Company to Transfer some or all of its Shares shall give written notice thereof to the Secretary of the Company that shall include: (1) the name of the stockholder; (2) the proposed transferee; (3) the number of shares of the Transfer of which approval is thereby requested; and (4) the purchase price, if any, of the shares proposed for Transfer. The Company may require the Participant to supplement its notice with such additional information as the Company may request or as may otherwise be required by the applicable Option Agreement, Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement or other applicable written agreement. In addition such request for Transfer shall be subject to such right of first refusal, transfer provisions and any other terms and conditions as may be set forth in the applicable Option Agreement, Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement or other applicable written agreement.

 

13. Time of Granting Awards. The date of grant of an Award shall, for all purposes, be the date on which the Administrator makes the determination granting such Award, or such other date as is determined by the Administrator.

 

14. Amendment and Termination of the Plan. The Board may at any time amend or terminate the Plan, but no amendment or termination shall be made that would materially and adversely affect the rights of any Participant under any outstanding Award, without his or her consent. In addition, to the extent necessary and desirable to comply with Applicable Laws, the Company shall obtain the approval of holders of capital stock with respect to any Plan amendment in such a manner and to such a degree as required.

 

15. Conditions Upon Issuance of Shares. Notwithstanding any other provision of the Plan or any agreement entered into by the Company pursuant to the Plan, the Company shall not be obligated, and shall have no liability for failure, to issue or deliver any Shares under the Plan unless such issuance or delivery would comply with Applicable Laws, with such compliance determined by the Company in consultation with its legal counsel. As a condition to the exercise of any Option or purchase of any Restricted Stock, the Company may require the person exercising the Option or purchasing the Restricted Stock to represent and warrant at the time of any such exercise or purchase that the Shares are being purchased only for investment and without any present intention to sell or distribute such Shares if, in the opinion of counsel for the Company, such a representation is advisable or required by Applicable Laws. Shares issued upon exercise of Options or purchase of Restricted Stock prior to the date, if ever, on which the Class A Common Stock becomes a Listed Security shall be subject to a right of first refusal in favor of the Company pursuant to which the Participant will be required to offer Shares to the Company before selling or transferring them to any third party on such terms and subject to such conditions as is reflected in the applicable Option Agreement or Restricted Stock Purchase Agreement.

 

-16-

 

 

16. Beneficiaries. If permitted by the Company, a Participant may designate one or more beneficiaries with respect to an Award by timely filing the prescribed form with the Company. A beneficiary designation may be changed by filing the prescribed form with the Company at any time before the Participant’s death. Except as otherwise provided in an Award agreement, if no beneficiary was designated or if no designated beneficiary survives the Participant, then after a Participant’s death any vested Award(s) shall be transferred or distributed to the Participant’s estate or to any person who has the right to acquire the Award by bequest or inheritance.

 

17. Approval of Holders of Capital Stock. If required by Applicable Laws, continuance of the Plan shall be subject to approval by the holders of capital stock of the Company within 12 months before or after the date the Plan is adopted or, to the extent required by Applicable Laws, any date the Plan is amended. Such approval shall be obtained in the manner and to the degree required under Applicable Laws.

 

18. Addenda. The Administrator may approve such addenda to the Plan as it may consider necessary or appropriate for the purpose of granting Awards to Employees or Consultants, which Awards may contain such terms and conditions as the Administrator deems necessary or appropriate to accommodate differences in local law, tax policy or custom, which may deviate from the terms and conditions set forth in this Plan. The terms of any such addenda shall supersede the terms of the Plan to the extent necessary to accommodate such differences but shall not otherwise affect the terms of the Plan as in effect for any other purpose.

 

19. Information to Holders of Options. In the event the Company is relying on the exemption provided by Rule 12h-1(f) under the Exchange Act, the Company shall provide the information described in Rule 701(e)(3), (4) and (5) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, to all holders of Options in accordance with the requirements thereunder until such time as the Company becomes subject to the reporting requirements of Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act. The Company may request that holders of Options agree to keep the information to be provided pursuant to this Section confidential. If the holder does not agree to keep the information to be provided pursuant to this Section confidential, then the Company will not be required to provide the information unless otherwise required pursuant to Rule 12h-1(f)(1) of the Exchange Act.

Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan

 

STOCK OPTION AGREEMENT

 

1. Grant of Option. Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), hereby grants to the person (“Optionee”) named in the Notice of Stock Option Grant (the “Notice”), an option (the “Option”) to purchase the total number of shares of Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) set forth in the Notice, at the exercise price per Share set forth in the Notice (the “Exercise Price”) subject to the terms, definitions and provisions of the Momentus Inc. Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) adopted by the Company, which is incorporated in this Stock Option Agreement (this “Agreement”) by reference. Unless otherwise defined in this Agreement, the terms used in this Agreement or the Notice shall have the meanings defined in the Plan.

 

2. Designation of Option. This Option is intended to be an Incentive Stock Option as defined in Section 422 of the Code only to the extent so designated in the Notice, and to the extent it is not so designated or to the extent this Option does not qualify as an Incentive Stock Option, it is intended to be a Nonstatutory Stock Option.

 

Notwithstanding the above, if designated as an Incentive Stock Option, in the event that the Shares subject to this Option (and all other incentive stock options granted to Optionee by the Company or any Parent or Subsidiary, including under other plans) that first become exercisable in any calendar year have an aggregate fair market value (determined for each Share as of the date of grant of the option covering such Share) in excess of USD$100,000, the Shares in excess of USD$100,000 shall be treated as subject to a nonstatutory stock option, in accordance with Section 5(c) of the Plan.

 

3. Exercise of Option. This Option shall be exercisable during its term in accordance with the Vesting/Exercise Schedule set out in the Notice, with the provisions of Section 7(c) of the Plan, and as follows:

 

(a) Right to Exercise.

 

(i) This Option may not be exercised for a fraction of a share.

 

(ii) In the event of Optionee’s death, Disability or other termination of Continuous Service Status, the exercisability of this Option is governed by Section 5 below, subject to the limitations contained in this Section 3.

 

(iii) In no event may this Option be exercised after the Expiration Date set forth in the Notice.

 

-1-

 

 

(b) Method of Exercise.

 

(i) This Option shall be exercisable by execution and delivery of the Exercise Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A or of any other form of written notice approved for such purpose by the Company which shall state Optionee’s election to exercise this Option, the number of Shares in respect of which this Option is being exercised, and such other representations and agreements as to the holder’s investment intent with respect to such Shares as may be required by the Company pursuant to the provisions of the Plan. Such written notice shall be signed by Optionee and shall be delivered to the Company by such means as are determined by the Company in its discretion to constitute adequate delivery. The written notice shall be accompanied by payment of the aggregate Exercise Price for the purchased Shares.

 

(ii) As a condition to the grant, vesting and exercise of this Option and as further set forth in Section 9 of the Plan, Optionee hereby agrees to make adequate provision for the satisfaction of (and will indemnify the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate for) any applicable taxes or tax withholdings, social contributions, required deductions, or other payments, if any (“Tax-Related Items”), which arise upon the grant, vesting or exercise of this Option, ownership or disposition of Shares, receipt of dividends, if any, or otherwise in connection with this Option or the Shares, whether by withholding, direct payment to the Company, or otherwise as determined by the Company in its sole discretion. Regardless of any action the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate takes with respect to any or all applicable Tax-Related Items, Optionee acknowledges and agrees that the ultimate liability for all Tax-Related Items is and remains Optionee’s responsibility and may exceed any amount actually withheld by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate. Optionee further acknowledges and agrees that Optionee is solely responsible for filing all relevant documentation that may be required in relation to this Option or any Tax-Related Items (other than filings or documentation that is the specific obligation of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate pursuant to Applicable Laws), such as but not limited to personal income tax returns or reporting statements in relation to the grant, vesting or exercise of this Option, the holding of Shares or any bank or brokerage account, the subsequent sale of Shares, and the receipt of any dividends. Optionee further acknowledges that the Company makes no representations or undertakings regarding the treatment of any Tax-Related Items and does not commit to and is under no obligation to structure the terms or any aspect of the Option to reduce or eliminate Optionee’s liability for Tax-Related Items or achieve any particular tax result. Optionee also understands that Applicable Laws may require varying Share or option valuation methods for purposes of calculating Tax-Related Items, and the Company assumes no responsibility or liability in relation to any such valuation or for any calculation or reporting of income or Tax-Related Items that may be required of Optionee under Applicable Laws. Further, if Optionee has become subject to Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction, Optionee acknowledges that the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate may be required to withhold or account for Tax-Related Items in more than one jurisdiction.

 

-2-

 

 

(iii) The Company is not obligated, and will have no liability for failure, to issue or deliver any Shares upon exercise of this Option unless such issuance or delivery would comply with the Applicable Laws, with such compliance determined by the Company in consultation with its legal counsel. Furthermore, Optionee understands that the Applicable Laws of the country in which Optionee is residing or working at the time of grant, vesting, and/or exercise of this Option (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor or other matters) may restrict or prevent exercise of this Option. This Option may not be exercised until such time as the Plan has been approved by the holders of capital stock of the Company, or if the issuance of such Shares upon such exercise or the method of payment of consideration for such Shares would constitute a violation of any Applicable Laws, including any applicable U.S. federal or state securities laws or any other law or regulation, including any rule under Part 221 of Title 12 of the Code of Federal Regulations as promulgated by the Federal Reserve Board. As a condition to the exercise of this Option, the Company may require Optionee to make any representation and warranty to the Company as may be required by the Applicable Laws. Assuming such compliance, for income tax purposes the Shares shall be considered transferred to Optionee on the date on which this Option is exercised with respect to such Shares, subject to Applicable Laws.

 

(iv) Subject to compliance with Applicable Laws, this Option shall be deemed to be exercised upon receipt by the Company of the appropriate written notice of exercise accompanied by the Exercise Price and the satisfaction of any applicable obligations described in Section 3(b)(ii) above.

 

4. Method of Payment. Unless otherwise specified by the Company in its sole discretion to comply with Applicable Laws or facilitate the administration of the Plan, payment of the Exercise Price shall be by cash or check or, following the initial public offering of the Company’s Common Stock, by Cashless Exercise pursuant to which the Optionee delivers an irrevocable direction to a securities broker (on a form prescribed by the Company and according to a procedure established by the Company).

 

Optionee understands and agrees that, if required by the Company or Applicable Laws, any cross-border cash remittance made to exercise this Option or transfer proceeds received upon the sale of Shares must be made through a locally authorized financial institution or registered foreign exchange agency and may require Optionee to provide to such entity certain information regarding the transaction. Moreover, Optionee understands and agrees that the future value of the underlying Shares is unknown and cannot be predicted with certainty and may decrease in value, even below the Exercise Price. Optionee understands that neither the Company nor any Subsidiary or Affiliate is responsible for any foreign exchange fluctuation between local currency and the United States Dollar or the selection by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate in its sole discretion of an applicable foreign currency exchange rate that may affect the value of the Option (or the calculation of income or Tax-Related Items thereunder).

 

-3-

 

 

5. Termination of Relationship. Following the date of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status for any reason (the “Termination Date”), Optionee may exercise this Option only as set forth in the Notice and this Section 5. If Optionee does not exercise this Option within the Termination Period set forth in the Notice or the termination periods set forth below, this Option shall terminate in its entirety. In no event may any Option be exercised after the Expiration Date of this Option as set forth in the Notice. For the avoidance of doubt and for purposes of this Option only, termination of Continuous Service Status and the Termination Date will be deemed to occur as of the date Optionee is no longer actively providing services as an Employee or Consultant (except, in certain circumstances, to the extent Optionee is on a Company-approved leave of absence and subject to any Company policy or Applicable Laws regarding such leaves) and will not be extended by any notice period or “garden leave” that may be required contractually or under Applicable Laws, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

 

(a) General Termination. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status other than as a result of Optionee’s Disability or death or Optionee’s termination for Cause, Optionee may, to the extent Optionee is vested in the Optioned Stock, exercise this Option during the Termination Period set forth in the Notice.

 

(b) Termination upon Disability of Optionee. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status as a result of Optionee’s Disability, Optionee may, but only within 12 month(s) following the Termination Date, exercise this Option to the extent Optionee is vested in the Optioned Stock.

 

(c) Death of Optionee. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status as a result of Optionee’s death, or in the event of Optionee’s death within 3 month(s) following Optionee’s Termination Date, this Option may be exercised at any time within 12 month(s) following the Termination Date, or if later, 12 month(s) following the date of death by any beneficiaries designated in accordance with Section 16 of the Plan or, if there are no such beneficiaries, by the Optionee’s estate, or by a person who acquired the right to exercise the Option by bequest or inheritance, but only to the extent Optionee is vested in the Optioned Stock.

 

(d) Termination for Cause. In the event of termination of Optionee’s Continuous Service Status for Cause, this Option (including any vested portion thereof) shall immediately terminate in its entirety upon first notification to Optionee of such termination for Cause. If Optionee’s Continuous Service Status is suspended pending an investigation of whether Optionee’s Continuous Service Status will be terminated for Cause, all Optionee’s rights under this Option, including the right to exercise this Option, shall be suspended during the investigation period.

 

6. Non-Transferability of Option. This Option may not be transferred in any manner otherwise than by will or by the laws of descent or distribution and may be exercised during the lifetime of Optionee only by him or her. The terms of this Option shall be binding upon the executors, administrators, heirs, successors and assigns of Optionee.

 

-4-

 

 

7. Lock-Up Agreement. If so requested by the Company or the underwriters in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Optionee shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however or whenever acquired (except for those being registered) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for 180 days from the effective date of the registration statement, and Optionee shall execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of such offering.

 

8. Effect of Agreement. Optionee acknowledges receipt of a copy of the Plan and represents that he or she is familiar with the terms and provisions thereof (and has had an opportunity to consult counsel regarding the Option terms), and hereby accepts this Option and agrees to be bound by its contractual terms as set forth herein and in the Plan. Optionee hereby agrees to accept as binding, conclusive and final all decisions and interpretations of the Administrator regarding any questions relating to this Option. In the event of a conflict between the terms and provisions of the Plan and the terms and provisions of the Notice and this Agreement, the Plan terms and provisions shall prevail.

 

9. Imposition of Other Requirements. The Company reserves the right, without Optionee’s consent, to cancel or forfeit outstanding grants or impose other requirements on Optionee’s participation in the Plan, on this Option and the Shares subject to this Option and on any other Award or Shares acquired under the Plan, to the extent the Company determines it is necessary or advisable in order to comply with Applicable Laws or facilitate the administration of the Plan. Optionee agrees to sign any additional agreements or undertakings that may be necessary to accomplish the foregoing. Furthermore, Optionee acknowledges that the Applicable Laws of the country in which Optionee is residing or working at the time of grant, holding, vesting, and exercise of the Option or the holding or sale of Shares received pursuant to the Option (including any rules or regulations governing securities, foreign exchange, tax, labor, or other matters) may subject Optionee to additional procedural or regulatory requirements that Optionee is and will be solely responsible for and must fulfill. If applicable, such requirements may be outlined in but are not limited to the Country-Specific Addendum (the “Addendum”) attached hereto, which forms part of this Agreement. Notwithstanding any provision herein, Optionee’s participation in the Plan shall be subject to any applicable special terms and conditions or disclosures as set forth in the Addendum. The Optionee also understands and agrees that if the Optionee works, resides, moves to, or otherwise is or becomes subject to Applicable Laws or Company policies of another jurisdiction at any time, certain country-specific notices, disclaimers and/or terms and conditions may apply to him as from the date of grant, unless otherwise determined by the Company in its sole discretion.

 

10. Electronic Delivery and Translation. The Company may, in its sole discretion, decide to deliver any documents related to Optionee’s current or future participation in the Plan, this Option, the Shares subject to this Option, any other Company Securities or any other Company-related documents, by electronic means. By accepting this Option, whether electronically or otherwise, Optionee hereby (i) consents to receive such documents by electronic means, (ii) consents to the use of electronic signatures, and (iii) if applicable, agrees to participate in the Plan and/or receive any such documents through an on-line or electronic system established and maintained by the Company or a third party designated by the Company, including but not limited to the use of electronic signatures or click-through electronic acceptance of terms and conditions. To the extent Optionee has been provided with a copy of this Agreement, the Plan, or any other documents relating to this Option in a language other than English, the English language documents will prevail in case of any ambiguities or divergences as a result of translation.

 

-5-

 

 

11. No Acquired Rights or Employment Rights. In accepting the Option, Optionee acknowledges that the Plan is established voluntarily by the Company, is discretionary in nature, and may be modified, amended, suspended or terminated by the Company at any time. The grant of the Option is voluntary and occasional and does not create any contractual or other right to receive future grants of Options, other Awards or benefits in lieu of Options, even if Options have been granted repeatedly in the past, and all decisions with respect to future grants of Options or other Awards, if any, will be at the sole discretion of the Company. In addition, Optionee’s participation in the Plan is voluntary, and the Option and the Shares subject to the Option are extraordinary items that do not constitute regular compensation for services rendered to the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate and are outside the scope of Optionee’s employment contract, if any. The Option and the Shares subject to the Option are not intended to replace any pension rights or compensation and are not part of normal or expected salary or compensation for any purpose, including but not limited to calculating severance payments, if any, upon termination.

 

Nothing contained in this Agreement is intended to constitute or create a contract of employment, nor shall it constitute or create the right to remain associated with or in the employ of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate for any particular period of time. This Agreement shall not interfere in any way with the right of the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate to terminate Optionee’s employment or service at any time, subject to Applicable Laws.

 

12. Data Privacy. Optionee hereby explicitly and unambiguously consents to the collection, use and transfer, whether in electronic or other form, of Optionee’s Personal Data (as described below) by and among, as applicable, the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties as may be selected by the Company for the exclusive purpose of implementing, administering, and managing Optionee’s participation in the Plan. Optionee understands that refusal or withdrawal of consent will affect Optionee’s ability to participate in the Plan; without providing consent, Optionee will not be able to participate in the Plan or realize benefits (if any) from the Option.

 

Optionee understands that the Company and any Subsidiary or Affiliate or designated third parties may hold personal information about Optionee, including, but not limited to, Optionee’s name, home address and telephone number, date of birth, social insurance number or other identification number, salary, nationality, job title, any shares of stock or directorships held in the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, details of all Options or any other entitlement to Shares awarded, canceled, exercised, vested, unvested or outstanding in Optionee’s favor (“Personal Data”). Optionee understands that Personal Data may be transferred to any Subsidiary or Affiliate or third parties assisting in the implementation, administration and management of the Plan, that these recipients may be located in the United States, Optionee’s country, or elsewhere, and that the recipient’s country may have different data privacy laws and protections than Optionee’s country. In particular, the Company may transfer Personal Data to the broker or stock plan administrator assisting with the Plan, to its legal counsel and tax/accounting advisor, and to the Subsidiary or Affiliate that is your employer and its payroll provider.

13. Miscellaneous.

Country-Specific Addendum

 

This Addendum includes additional country-specific notices, disclaimers, and/or terms and conditions that apply to individuals who are working or residing in the countries listed below and that may be material to Optionee’s participation in the Plan. Such notices, disclaimers, and/or terms and conditions may also apply, as from the date of grant, if the Optionee moves to or otherwise is or becomes subject to the Applicable Laws or Company policies of the country listed. However, because foreign exchange regulations and other local laws are subject to frequent change, Optionee is advised to seek advice from his or her own personal legal and tax advisor prior to accepting or exercising an Option or holding or selling Shares acquired under the Plan. The Company is not providing any tax, legal or financial advice, nor is the Company making any recommendations regarding Optionee’s acceptance of the Option or participation in the Plan. Unless otherwise noted below, capitalized terms shall have the same meaning assigned to them under the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant and the Stock Option Agreement. This Addendum forms part of the Stock Option Agreement and should be read in conjunction with the Stock Option Agreement and the Plan.

 

Securities Law Notice: Unless otherwise noted, neither the Company nor the Shares are registered with any local stock exchange or under the control of any local securities regulator outside the United States. The Stock Option Agreement (of which this Addendum is a part), the Notice of Stock Option Grant, the Plan, and any other communications or materials that you may receive regarding participation in the Plan do not constitute advertising or an offering of securities outside the United States, and the issuance of securities described in any Plan-related documents is not intended for public offering or circulation in your jurisdiction.

 

Singapore:

 

Securities Law Notice

 

This offer and the Shares to be issued hereunder shall be made available through this platform/facility and are offered to Optionee in reliance on the exemption under section 272A (1) of the Securities and Futures Act (Chapter 289) of Singapore (the “SFA”). These offers are not made in or accompanied by a prospectus that is registered by the Monetary Authority of Singapore (the “Authority”). Apart from being subjected to the general resale restriction under Section 257 of the SFA, any and all Shares to be issued hereunder shall therefore not be subsequently sold to any person in Singapore, unless the offer resulting in such subsequent sale is made in compliance with Subdivisions (2) and (3) of Part XIII Division (1), in reliance on subsection (8)(c) or any other exemption under any provision of Subdivision (4) of Part XIII Division (1) (other than herein this subsection), or where at least 6 months have elapsed from the date the securities were acquired under the initial offer, in reliance on the exemption herein under this subsection.

 

Exit Tax / Deemed Exercise Rule. If Optionee is deemed by the Singapore tax authorities to have received Options in relation to Optionee’s employment in Singapore, notwithstanding the fact that Optionee is not employed by the Company or any Subsidiary or Affiliate, if prior to the exercise of the Options, Optionee is (1) a permanent resident of Singapore and leaves Singapore permanently or is transferred out of Singapore; or (2) neither a Singapore citizen nor permanent resident and either ceases employment in Singapore or leaves Singapore for any period exceeding 3 months, Optionee will likely be taxed on the Options on a “deemed exercise” basis, even if the Options have not yet vested. Optionee should discuss the tax treatment with his or her personal tax advisor.

Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan

 

EXERCISE AGREEMENT

 

This Exercise Agreement (this “Agreement”) is made as of _______________, by and between Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and ____________________ (“Purchaser”). To the extent any capitalized terms used in this Agreement are not defined, they shall have the meaning ascribed to them in the Company’s Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan (the “Plan”) and the Option Agreement (as defined below).

 

1. Exercise of Option. Subject to the terms and conditions hereof, Purchaser hereby elects to exercise his or her option to purchase _____________ shares of the Class A Common Stock (the “Shares”) of the Company under and pursuant to the Plan, the Notice of Stock Option Grant and the Stock Option Agreement granted __________ (the “Option Agreement”). The purchase price for the Shares shall be USD$__________ per Share for a total purchase price of USD$___________. The term “Shares” refers to the purchased Shares and all securities received in connection with the Shares pursuant to stock dividends or splits, all securities received in replacement of the Shares in a recapitalization, merger, reorganization, exchange or the like, and all new, substituted or additional securities or other property to which Purchaser is entitled by reason of Purchaser’s ownership of the Shares.

 

2. Time and Place of Exercise. The purchase and sale of the Shares under this Agreement shall occur at the principal office of the Company simultaneously with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the payment of the aggregate exercise price by any method listed in Section 4 of the Option Agreement, and the satisfaction of any applicable tax, withholding, required deductions or other payments, all in accordance with the provisions of Section 3(b) of the Option Agreement. The Company shall issue the Shares to Purchaser by entering such Shares in Purchaser’s name as of such date in the books and records of the Company or, if applicable, a duly authorized transfer agent of the Company, against payment of the exercise price therefor by Purchaser. The Company will deliver to Purchaser a stock certificate or, upon request in the case of uncertificated securities, a notice of issuance, for the Shares as soon as practicable following such date.

3. Limitations on Transfer. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares purchased under this Agreement are subject to (i) the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 12 of the Plan, (ii) the terms and conditions that apply to the Company’s Class A Common Stock, as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, as may be in effect at the time of any proposed transfer (the “Bylaw Provisions”), and (iii) any other limitation or restriction on transfer created by Applicable Laws. Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares except to the extent permitted by, and in compliance with, Section 12 of the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions, Applicable Laws, and the provisions below.

 

(a) Transfer Restrictions; Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or any transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company shall first, to the extent the Company’s approval is required by the Plan or any applicable Bylaw Provisions, have the right to approve such sale or transfer, in full or in part, and shall then have the right to purchase all or any part of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred, in each case, in its sole and absolute discretion (the “Right of First Refusal”). If the Holder would like to sell or transfer any Shares, the Holder must provide the Company or its assignee(s) with a Notice (as defined below) requesting approval to sell or transfer the Shares and offering the Company or its assignee(s) a Right of First Refusal on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3(a). The Company may either (1) exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and purchase such Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a), (2) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and permit the transfer of such Shares to the Proposed Transferee (as defined below) in full or in part or (3) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and, to the extent the Company’s approval is required by the Plan or any applicable Bylaw Provisions, decline the request to sell or transfer the Shares in full or in part.

 

(i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (A) the Holder’s intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (B) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (C) the number of Shares to be sold or transferred to each Proposed Transferee; (D) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer, including (without limitation) the purchase price for such Shares (the “Purchase Price”); and (E) the Holder’s offer to the Company or its assignee(s) to purchase the Shares at the Purchase Price and upon the same terms (or terms that are no less favorable to the Company).

 

(ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) shall deliver a written notice to the Holder indicating whether the Company and/or its assignee(s) elect to permit or reject the proposed sale or transfer, in full or in part, and/or elect to accept or decline the offer to purchase any or all of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the Purchase Price, provided that if the Purchase Price consists of no legal consideration (as, for example, in the case of a transfer by gift), the purchase price will be the fair market value of the Shares as determined in good faith by the Company. If the Purchase Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Company in good faith.

 

(iii) Payment. Payment of the Purchase Price shall be made, at the election of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness, or by any combination thereof within 60 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

(iv) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If any of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be sold or transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are both (A) not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(a) and (B) approved by the Company to be sold or transferred, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer any such Shares to the applicable Proposed Transferee at the Purchase Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date of the Notice; provided that any such sale or other transfer is also effected in accordance with the Bylaw Provisions, the transfer restrictions set forth in the Plan and any Applicable Laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including this Section 3 and the waiver of statutory information rights in Section 8 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. The Company, in consultation with its legal counsel, may require the Holder to provide an opinion of counsel evidencing compliance with Applicable Laws. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again have the right to approve such transfer and be offered the Right of First Refusal.

 

(v) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(a) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Holder’s lifetime or on Holder’s death by will or intestacy to Holder’s Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of Holder or Holder’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 3(a). “Immediate Family” as used herein shall mean lineal descendant or antecedent, spouse (or spouse’s antecedents), father, mother, brother or sister (or their descendants), stepchild (or their antecedents or descendants), aunt or uncle (or their antecedents or descendants), brother-in-law or sister-in-law (or their antecedents or descendants) and shall include adoptive relationships, or any person sharing Holder’s household (other than a tenant or an employee). In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions and the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including this Section 3 and Section 8, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3, the Plan, and the Bylaw Provisions.

 

(b) Company’s Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In the event of any transfer by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(a)(v) above) of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have an option to purchase any or all of the Shares transferred at the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of transfer (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion). Upon such a transfer, the Holder shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of 30 days following receipt by the Company of written notice from the Holder.

 

(c) Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any holder or holders of capital stock of the Company or other persons or organizations.

 

-3-

 

 

(d) Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions, the provisions of the Option Agreement and this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 3 and 8 of this Agreement, Section 7 of the Option Agreement and Section 12 of the Plan. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied.

 

(e) Termination of Rights. The transfer restrictions set forth in Section  3(a) above and Section 12 of the Plan, the Right of First Refusal granted the Company by Section 3(a) above and the right to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 3(b) above shall terminate upon (i) the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) (other than a registration statement relating solely to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to a business combination or an employee incentive or benefit plan) or (ii) any transfer or conversion of Shares made pursuant to a statutory merger or statutory consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or corporations if the common stock of the surviving corporation or any direct or indirect parent corporation thereof is registered under the Exchange Act. Upon termination of such transfer restrictions, the Company will remove any stop-transfer notices referred to in Section 6(b) below and related to the restrictions in this Section 3 and a new stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, notice of issuance, for the Shares not repurchased shall be issued, on request, without the legend referred to in Section 6(a)(ii) below and delivered to Holder.

 

(f) Lock-Up Agreement. The lock-up provisions set forth in Section 7 of the Option Agreement shall apply to the Shares issued upon exercise of the Option hereunder and Purchaser reaffirms Purchaser’s obligations set forth therein.

 

4. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

 

(a) Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for investment for Purchaser’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Purchaser does not have any present intention to transfer the Shares to any other person or entity.

 

(b) Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein.

 

(c) Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the securities.

 

-4-

 

 

(d) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Purchaser understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things, that the Company be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section 4(d), Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 4(e) below.

 

(e) Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

 

(f) Purchaser represents that Purchaser is not subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act. Purchaser also agrees to notify the Company if Purchaser becomes subject to such disqualifications after the date hereof.

 

(g) Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Purchaser’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice.

 

5. Voting Provisions. As a condition precedent to entering into this Agreement, at the request of the Company, Purchaser shall become a party to any voting agreement to which the Company is a party at the time of Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, as such voting agreement may be thereafter amended from time to time (the “Voting Agreement”), by executing an adoption agreement or counterpart signature page agreeing to be bound by and subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement and to vote the Shares in the capacity of a “Common Holder” and a “Stockholder,” as such terms may be defined in the Voting Agreement.

 

6. Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.

 

(a) Legends. Any stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, any notice of issuance, for the Shares shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by the Company or applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws):

 

(i) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”

 

-5-

 

 

(ii) “THE SECURITIES referenced herein MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE Company AND THE stockholder, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH AND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE SECRETARY OF THE Company at no charge.

 

(iii) THE TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES referenced herein IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE COMPANY’S Stock PLAN, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT REGISTER OR OTHERWISE RECOGNIZE OR GIVE EFFECT TO ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER OF SECURITIES THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.”

 

(iv) Any legend required by the Voting Agreement, as applicable.

 

(b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

 

(c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

 

7. No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, to terminate Purchaser’s employment or consulting relationship, for any reason, with or without cause.

 

8. Waiver of Statutory Information Rights. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that, but for the waiver made herein, Purchaser would be entitled, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, to inspect for any proper purpose, and to make copies and extracts from, the Company’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records, and the books and records of subsidiaries of the Company, if any, under the circumstances and in the manner provided in Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (any and all such rights, and any and all such other rights of Purchaser as may be provided for in Section 220, the “Inspection Rights”). In light of the foregoing, until the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Purchaser hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives the Inspection Rights, whether such Inspection Rights would be exercised or pursued directly or indirectly pursuant to Section 220 or otherwise, and covenants and agrees never to directly or indirectly commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute, assign, transfer, or cause to be commenced any claim, action, cause of action, or other proceeding to pursue or exercise the Inspection Rights. The foregoing waiver applies to the Inspection Rights of Purchaser in Purchaser’s capacity as a stockholder and shall not affect any rights of a director, in his or her capacity as such, under Section 220. The foregoing waiver shall not apply to any contractual inspection rights of Purchaser under any written agreement with the Company.

2. Consideration. Payment of the Aggregate Purchase Price shall be made by any method permitted by the Company and authorized under the Plan. In addition, Purchaser shall satisfy any applicable tax, withholding obligations, required deductions or other payments, all in accordance with the Plan.

3. Limitations on Transfer. Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Shares purchased under this Agreement are subject to (i) the transfer restrictions set forth in Section 12 of the Plan, (ii) the terms and conditions that apply to the Company’s Class A Common Stock, as set forth in the Company’s Bylaws, as may be in effect at the time of any proposed transfer (the “Bylaw Provisions”), and (iii) any other limitation or restriction on transfer created by Applicable Laws. In addition to the foregoing limitations on transfer, Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares while the Shares are subject to the Company’s Repurchase Option (as defined below). After any Shares have been released from such Repurchase Option, Purchaser shall not assign, encumber or dispose of any interest in the Shares except to the extent permitted by, and in compliance with, Section 12 of the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions, Applicable Laws, and the provisions below.

 

(a) Repurchase Option; Vesting.

 

(i) In the event of the voluntary or involuntary termination of Purchaser’s Continuous Service Status for any reason (including, without limitation, resignation, death or Disability), with or without cause, the Company shall upon the date of such termination (the “Termination Date”) have an irrevocable, exclusive option (the “Repurchase Option”) for a period of 3 months from such date to repurchase all or any portion of the Unvested Shares (as defined below) held by Purchaser as of the Termination Date at the original purchase price per Share (adjusted for any stock splits, stock dividends and the like) specified in Section 1. As used in this Agreement, “Unvested Shares” means Shares, if any, that have not yet been released from the Repurchase Option.

 

(ii) Unless the Company notifies Purchaser within 3 months from the Termination Date that it does not intend to exercise its Repurchase Option with respect to some or all of the Unvested Shares, the Repurchase Option shall be deemed automatically exercised by the Company as of the end of such 3-month period following such Termination Date, provided that the Company may notify Purchaser that it is exercising its Repurchase Option as of a date prior to the end of such 3-month period. Unless Purchaser is otherwise notified by the Company pursuant to the preceding sentence that the Company does not intend to exercise its Repurchase Option as to some or all of the Unvested Shares to which it applies at the time of termination, execution of this Agreement by Purchaser constitutes written notice to Purchaser of the Company’s intention to exercise its Repurchase Option with respect to all Unvested Shares to which such Repurchase Option applies. The Company, at its choice, may satisfy its payment obligation to Purchaser with respect to exercise of the Repurchase Option by either (A) delivering a check to Purchaser in the amount of the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, or (B) in the event Purchaser is indebted to the Company, canceling an amount of such indebtedness equal to the purchase price for the Unvested Shares being repurchased, or (C) by a combination of (A) and (B) so that the combined payment and cancellation of indebtedness equals such purchase price. In the event of any deemed automatic exercise of the Repurchase Option pursuant to this Section 3(a)(iii) in which Purchaser is indebted to the Company, such indebtedness equal to the purchase price of the Unvested Shares being repurchased shall be deemed automatically canceled as of the end of the 3-month period following the Termination Date unless the Company otherwise satisfies its payment obligations. As a result of any repurchase of Unvested Shares pursuant to this Section 3(a), the Company shall become the legal and beneficial owner of the Unvested Shares being repurchased and shall have all rights and interest therein or related thereto, and the Company shall have the right to transfer to its own name the number of Unvested Shares being repurchased by the Company, without further action by Purchaser.

 

(iii) 100% of the Shares shall initially be subject to the Repurchase Option (the “Vesting Shares”). __________ of the Vesting Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option on __________, and an additional __________ of the Vesting Shares shall be released from the Repurchase Option on the ____ day of each month thereafter (and if there is no corresponding day, the last day of the month), until all Vesting Shares are released from the Repurchase Option; provided, however, that such scheduled releases from the Repurchase Option shall immediately cease as of the Termination Date. Fractional shares shall be rounded down to the nearest whole share.

(b) Transfer Restrictions; Right of First Refusal. Before any Shares held by Purchaser or any transferee of Purchaser (either being sometimes referred to herein as the “Holder”) may be sold or otherwise transferred (including transfer by gift or operation of law), the Company shall first, to the extent the Company’s approval is required by the Plan or any applicable Bylaw Provisions, have the right to approve such sale or transfer, in full or in part, and shall then have the right to purchase all or any part of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred, in each case, in its sole and absolute discretion (the “Right of First Refusal”). If the Holder would like to sell or transfer any Shares, the Holder must provide the Company or its assignee(s) with a Notice (as defined below) requesting approval to sell or transfer the Shares and offering the Company or its assignee(s) a Right of First Refusal on the same terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3(b). The Company may either (1) exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and purchase such Shares pursuant to this Section 3(b), (2) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and permit the transfer of such Shares to the Proposed Transferee (as defined below) in full or in part or (3) decline to exercise its Right of First Refusal in full or in part and, to the extent the Company’s approval is required by the Plan or any applicable Bylaw Provisions, decline the request to sell or transfer the Shares in full or in part.

 

(i) Notice of Proposed Transfer. The Holder of the Shares shall deliver to the Company a written notice (the “Notice”) stating: (A) the Holder’s intention to sell or otherwise transfer such Shares; (B) the name of each proposed purchaser or other transferee (“Proposed Transferee”); (C) the number of Shares to be sold or transferred to each Proposed Transferee; (D) the terms and conditions of each proposed sale or transfer, including (without limitation) the purchase price for such Shares (the “Transfer Purchase Price”); and (E) the Holder’s offer to the Company or its assignee(s) to purchase the Shares at the Transfer Purchase Price and upon the same terms (or terms that are no less favorable to the Company).

 

(ii) Exercise of Right of First Refusal. At any time within 30 days after receipt of the Notice, the Company and/or its assignee(s) shall deliver a written notice to the Holder indicating whether the Company and/or its assignee(s) elect to permit or reject the proposed sale or transfer, in full or in part, and/or elect to accept or decline the offer to purchase any or all of the Shares proposed to be sold or transferred to any one or more of the Proposed Transferees, at the Transfer Purchase Price, provided that if the Transfer Purchase Price consists of no legal consideration (as, for example, in the case of a transfer by gift), the purchase price will be the fair market value of the Shares as determined in good faith by the Company. If the Transfer Purchase Price includes consideration other than cash, the cash equivalent value of the non-cash consideration shall be determined by the Company in good faith.

 

(iii) Payment. Payment of the Transfer Purchase Price shall be made, at the election of the Company or its assignee(s), in cash (by check), by cancellation of all or a portion of any outstanding indebtedness, or by any combination thereof within 60 days after receipt of the Notice or in the manner and at the times set forth in the Notice.

(iv) Holder’s Right to Transfer. If any of the Shares proposed in the Notice to be sold or transferred to a given Proposed Transferee are both (A) not purchased by the Company and/or its assignee(s) as provided in this Section 3(b) and (B) approved by the Company to be sold or transferred, then the Holder may sell or otherwise transfer any such Shares to the applicable Proposed Transferee at the Transfer Purchase Price or at a higher price, provided that such sale or other transfer is consummated within 120 days after the date of the Notice; provided that any such sale or other transfer is also effected in accordance with the Bylaw Provisions, the transfer restrictions set forth in the Plan and any Applicable Laws and the Proposed Transferee agrees in writing that the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions and the provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 3 and the waiver of statutory information rights in Section 10 shall continue to apply to the Shares in the hands of such Proposed Transferee. The Company, in consultation with its legal counsel, may require the Holder to provide an opinion of counsel evidencing compliance with Applicable Laws. If the Shares described in the Notice are not transferred to the Proposed Transferee within such period, or if the Holder proposes to change the price or other terms to make them more favorable to the Proposed Transferee, a new Notice shall be given to the Company, and the Company and/or its assignees shall again have the right to approve such transfer and be offered the Right of First Refusal.

 

(v) Exception for Certain Family Transfers. Anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3(b) notwithstanding, the transfer of any or all of the Shares during Holder’s lifetime or on Holder’s death by will or intestacy to Holder’s Immediate Family or a trust for the benefit of Holder or Holder’s Immediate Family shall be exempt from the provisions of this Section 3(b). “Immediate Family” as used herein shall mean lineal descendant or antecedent, spouse (or spouse’s antecedents), father, mother, brother or sister (or their descendants), stepchild (or their antecedents or descendants), aunt or uncle (or their antecedents or descendants), brother-in-law or sister-in-law (or their antecedents or descendants) and shall include adoptive relationships, or any person sharing Holder’s household (other than a tenant or an employee). In such case, the transferee or other recipient shall receive and hold the Shares so transferred subject to the provisions of the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions and the provisions of this Agreement, including this Section 3 and Section 10, and there shall be no further transfer of such Shares except in accordance with the terms of this Section 3, the Plan, and the Bylaw Provisions.

 

(c) Company’s Right to Purchase upon Involuntary Transfer. In the event of any transfer by operation of law or other involuntary transfer (including death or divorce, but excluding a transfer to Immediate Family as set forth in Section 3(b)(v) above) of all or a portion of the Shares by the record holder thereof, the Company shall have an option to purchase any or all of the Shares transferred at the Fair Market Value of the Shares on the date of transfer (as determined by the Company in its sole discretion). Upon such a transfer, the Holder shall promptly notify the Secretary of the Company of such transfer. The right to purchase such Shares shall be provided to the Company for a period of 30 days following receipt by the Company of written notice from the Holder.

 

(d) Assignment. The right of the Company to purchase any part of the Shares may be assigned in whole or in part to any holder or holders of capital stock of the Company or other persons or organizations.

 

-4-

 

 

(e) Restrictions Binding on Transferees. All transferees of Shares or any interest therein will receive and hold such Shares or interest subject to the Plan, the Bylaw Provisions and the provisions of this Agreement, including, without limitation, Sections 3 and 10 of this Agreement and Section 12 of the Plan, including, insofar as applicable, the Repurchase Option. In the event of any purchase by the Company hereunder where the Shares or interest are held by a transferee, the transferee shall be obligated, if requested by the Company, to transfer the Shares or interest to Purchaser for consideration equal to the amount to be paid by the Company hereunder. In the event the Repurchase Option is deemed exercised by the Company pursuant to Section 3(a)(ii) hereof, the Company may deem any transferee to have transferred the Shares or interest to Purchaser prior to their purchase by the Company, and payment of the purchase price by the Company to such transferee shall be deemed to satisfy Purchaser’s obligation to pay such transferee for such Shares or interest, and also to satisfy the Company’s obligation to pay Purchaser for such Shares or interest. Any sale or transfer of the Shares shall be void unless the provisions of this Agreement are satisfied.

 

(f) Termination of Rights. The transfer restrictions set forth in Section 3(b) above and Section 12 of the Plan, the Right of First Refusal granted the Company by Section 3(b) above and the right to repurchase the Shares in the event of an involuntary transfer granted the Company by Section 3(c) above shall terminate upon (i) the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act (other than a registration statement relating solely to the issuance of Common Stock pursuant to a business combination or an employee incentive or benefit plan) or (ii) any transfer or conversion of Shares made pursuant to a statutory merger or statutory consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation or corporations if the common stock of the surviving corporation or any direct or indirect parent corporation thereof is registered under the Exchange Act.

 

(g) Lock-Up Agreement. If so requested by the Company or the underwriters in connection with the initial public offering of the Company’s securities registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Purchaser shall not sell, make any short sale of, loan, grant any option for the purchase of, or otherwise dispose of any securities of the Company however or whenever acquired (except for those being registered) without the prior written consent of the Company or such underwriters, as the case may be, for 180 days from the effective date of the registration statement, and Purchaser shall execute an agreement reflecting the foregoing as may be requested by the underwriters at the time of such offering.

 

4. Escrow of Unvested Shares. For purposes of facilitating the enforcement of the provisions of Section 3 above, Purchaser agrees to deliver a Stock Power in the form attached to this Agreement as Exhibit A executed by Purchaser and by Purchaser’s spouse (if required for transfer), in blank, and such stock certificate(s), if any, to the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, to hold such Shares (and stock certificate(s), if any) and Stock Power in escrow and to take all such actions and to effectuate all such transfers and/or releases as are required in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Purchaser hereby acknowledges that the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, is so appointed as the escrow holder with the foregoing authorities as a material inducement to make this Agreement and that said appointment is coupled with an interest and is accordingly irrevocable. Purchaser agrees that said escrow holder shall not be liable to any party hereof (or to any other party). The escrow holder may rely upon any letter, notice or other document executed by any signature purported to be genuine and may resign at any time. Purchaser agrees that if the Secretary of the Company, or the Secretary’s designee, resigns as escrow holder for any or no reason, the Board of Directors of the Company shall have the power to appoint a successor to serve as escrow holder pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

5. Investment and Taxation Representations. In connection with the purchase of the Shares, Purchaser represents to the Company the following:

 

(a) Purchaser is aware of the Company’s business affairs and financial condition and has acquired sufficient information about the Company to reach an informed and knowledgeable decision to acquire the Shares. Purchaser is purchasing the Shares for investment for Purchaser’s own account only and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any “distribution” thereof within the meaning of the Securities Act or under any applicable provision of state law. Purchaser does not have any present intention to transfer the Shares to any other person or entity.

 

(b) Purchaser understands that the Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act by reason of a specific exemption therefrom, which exemption depends upon, among other things, the bona fide nature of Purchaser’s investment intent as expressed herein.

 

(c) Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the securities must be held indefinitely unless they are subsequently registered under the Securities Act or an exemption from such registration is available. Purchaser further acknowledges and understands that the Company is under no obligation to register the securities.

 

(d) Purchaser is familiar with the provisions of Rule 144, promulgated under the Securities Act, which, in substance, permits limited public resale of “restricted securities” acquired, directly or indirectly, from the issuer of the securities (or from an affiliate of such issuer), in a non-public offering subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions. Purchaser understands that the Company provides no assurances as to whether he or she will be able to resell any or all of the Shares pursuant to Rule 144, which rule requires, among other things, that the Company be subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, that resales of securities take place only after the holder of the Shares has held the Shares for certain specified time periods, and under certain circumstances, that resales of securities be limited in volume and take place only pursuant to brokered transactions. Notwithstanding this Section 5(d), Purchaser acknowledges and agrees to the restrictions set forth in Section 5(e) below.

 

(e) Purchaser further understands that in the event all of the applicable requirements of Rule 144 are not satisfied, registration under the Securities Act, compliance with Regulation A, or some other registration exemption will be required; and that, notwithstanding the fact that Rule 144 is not exclusive, the Staff of the Securities and Exchange Commission has expressed its opinion that persons proposing to sell private placement securities other than in a registered offering and otherwise than pursuant to Rule 144 will have a substantial burden of proof in establishing that an exemption from registration is available for such offers or sales, and that such persons and their respective brokers who participate in such transactions do so at their own risk.

 

-6-

 

 

(f) Purchaser represents that Purchaser is not subject to any of the “Bad Actor” disqualifications described in Rule 506(d)(1)(i) to (viii) under the Securities Act. Purchaser also agrees to notify the Company if Purchaser becomes subject to such disqualifications after the date hereof.

 

(g) Purchaser understands that Purchaser may suffer adverse tax consequences as a result of Purchaser’s purchase or disposition of the Shares. Purchaser represents that Purchaser has consulted any tax consultants Purchaser deems advisable in connection with the purchase or disposition of the Shares and that Purchaser is not relying on the Company for any tax advice.

 

6. Voting Provisions. As a condition precedent to entering into this Agreement, at the request of the Company, Purchaser shall become a party to any voting agreement to which the Company is a party at the time of Purchaser’s execution and delivery of this Agreement, as such voting agreement may be thereafter amended from time to time (the “Voting Agreement”), by executing an adoption agreement or counterpart signature page agreeing to be bound by and subject to the terms of the Voting Agreement and to vote the Shares in the capacity of a “Common Holder” and a “Stockholder,” as such terms may be defined in the Voting Agreement.

 

7. Restrictive Legends and Stop-Transfer Orders.

 

(a) Legends. Any stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, any notice of issuance, for the Shares, shall bear the following legends (as well as any legends required by the Company or applicable state and federal corporate and securities laws):

 

(i) “THE SECURITIES REFERENCED HEREIN HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AND HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND NOT WITH A VIEW TO, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE SALE OR DISTRIBUTION THEREOF. NO SUCH SALE OR DISTRIBUTION MAY BE EFFECTED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT RELATED THERETO OR AN OPINION OF COUNSEL IN A FORM SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY THAT SUCH REGISTRATION IS NOT REQUIRED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933.”

 

(ii) “THE SECURITIES referenced herein MAY BE TRANSFERRED ONLY IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE TERMS OF AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE Company AND THE stockholder, A COPY OF WHICH IS ON FILE WITH AND MAY BE OBTAINED FROM THE SECRETARY OF THE Company at no charge.

 

(iii) “THE TRANSFER OF THE SECURITIES referenced herein IS SUBJECT TO CERTAIN TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS SET FORTH IN THE COMPANY’S Stock PLAN, COPIES OF WHICH MAY BE OBTAINED UPON WRITTEN REQUEST TO THE COMPANY AT ITS PRINCIPAL PLACE OF BUSINESS. THE COMPANY SHALL NOT REGISTER OR OTHERWISE RECOGNIZE OR GIVE EFFECT TO ANY PURPORTED TRANSFER OF SECURITIES THAT DOES NOT COMPLY WITH SUCH TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS.

 

(iv) Any legend required by the Voting Agreement, as applicable.

 

-7-

 

 

(b) Stop-Transfer Notices. Purchaser agrees that, in order to ensure compliance with the restrictions referred to herein, the Company may issue appropriate “stop transfer” instructions to its transfer agent, if any, and that, if the Company transfers its own securities, it may make appropriate notations to the same effect in its own records.

 

(c) Refusal to Transfer. The Company shall not be required (i) to transfer on its books any Shares that have been sold or otherwise transferred in violation of any of the provisions of this Agreement or the Plan or (ii) to treat as owner of such Shares or to accord the right to vote or pay dividends to any purchaser or other transferee to whom such Shares shall have been so transferred.

 

(d) Legend and Notice Removal. When all of the following events have occurred, the Shares then held by Purchaser will no longer be subject to the legend specified in Section 7(a)(ii) and the Company will remove any stop-transfer notices associated with the transfer restrictions imposed by this Agreement:

 

(i) the termination of the Right of First Refusal;

 

(ii) the expiration or exercise in full of the Repurchase Option;

 

(iii) the expiration or termination of the lock-up provisions of Section 3(g) (and of any agreement entered pursuant to Section 3(g)); and

 

(iv) the termination of the waiver of statutory information rights set forth in Section 10.

 

After such time and upon Purchaser’s request, a new stock certificate or, in the case of uncertificated securities, notice of issuance, for the remaining Shares, shall be issued without the legend specified in Section 7(a)(ii) and delivered to Purchaser.

 

8. No Employment Rights. Nothing in this Agreement shall affect in any manner whatsoever the right or power of the Company, or a parent, subsidiary or affiliate of the Company, to terminate Purchaser’s employment or consulting relationship, for any reason, with or without cause.

 

-8-

 

 

9. Section 83(b) Election. Purchaser understands that Section 83(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), taxes as ordinary income the difference between the amount paid for the Shares and the Fair Market Value of the Shares as of the date any restrictions on the Shares lapse. In this context, “restriction” means the right of the Company to buy back the Shares pursuant to the Repurchase Option set forth in Section 3(a) above of this Agreement. Purchaser understands that Purchaser may elect to be taxed at the time the Shares are purchased, rather than when and as the Repurchase Option expires, by filing an election under Section 83(b) (an “83(b) Election”) of the Code with the Internal Revenue Service within 30 days from the date of purchase. Even if the Fair Market Value of the Shares at the time of the execution of this Agreement equals the amount paid for the Shares, the election must be made to avoid income under Section 83(a) in the future. Purchaser understands that failure to file such an election in a timely manner may result in adverse tax consequences for Purchaser. Purchaser further understands that an additional copy of such election form should be filed with Purchaser’s federal income tax return for the calendar year in which the date of this Agreement falls. Purchaser acknowledges that the foregoing is only a summary of the effect of United States federal income taxation with respect to purchase of the Shares hereunder, does not purport to be complete, and is not intended or written to be used, and cannot be used, for the purposes of avoiding taxpayer penalties. Purchaser further acknowledges that the Company has directed Purchaser to seek independent advice regarding the applicable provisions of the Code, the income tax laws of any municipality, state or foreign country in which Purchaser may reside, and the tax consequences of Purchaser’s death, and Purchaser has consulted, and has been fully advised by, Purchaser’s own tax advisor regarding such tax laws and tax consequences or has knowingly chosen not to consult such a tax advisor. Purchaser further acknowledges that neither the Company nor any subsidiary or representative of the Company has made any warranty or representation to Purchaser with respect to the tax consequences of Purchaser’s purchase of the Shares or of the making or failure to make an 83(b) Election. PURCHASER (AND NOT THE COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR ANY OTHER PERSON) SHALL BE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR APPROPRIATELY FILING SUCH FORM WITH THE IRS, EVEN IF PURCHASER REQUESTS THE COMPANY, ITS AGENTS OR ANY OTHER PERSON MAKE THIS FILING ON PURCHASER’S BEHALF.

 

Purchaser agrees that Purchaser will execute and deliver to the Company with this executed Agreement a copy of the Acknowledgment and Statement of Decision Regarding Section 83(b) Election (the “Acknowledgment”), attached hereto as Exhibit B and, if Purchaser decides to make an 83(b) Election, a copy of the 83(b) Election, attached hereto as Exhibit C.

 

10. Waiver of Statutory Information Rights. Purchaser acknowledges and understands that, but for the waiver made herein, Purchaser would be entitled, upon written demand under oath stating the purpose thereof, to inspect for any proper purpose, and to make copies and extracts from, the Company’s stock ledger, a list of its stockholders, and its other books and records, and the books and records of subsidiaries of the Company, if any, under the circumstances and in the manner provided in Section 220 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (any and all such rights, and any and all such other rights of Purchaser as may be provided for in Section 220, the “Inspection Rights”). In light of the foregoing, until the first sale of Common Stock of the Company to the general public pursuant to a registration statement filed with and declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, Purchaser hereby unconditionally and irrevocably waives the Inspection Rights, whether such Inspection Rights would be exercised or pursued directly or indirectly pursuant to Section 220 or otherwise, and covenants and agrees never to directly or indirectly commence, voluntarily aid in any way, prosecute, assign, transfer, or cause to be commenced any claim, action, cause of action, or other proceeding to pursue or exercise the Inspection Rights. The foregoing waiver applies to the Inspection Rights of Purchaser in Purchaser’s capacity as a stockholder and shall not affect any rights of a director, in his or her capacity as such, under Section 220. The foregoing waiver shall not apply to any contractual inspection rights of Purchaser under any written agreement with the Company.

Re: EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT

 

Dear Mikhail:

 

This Employment Agreement (the “Agreement”) between you (referred to hereinafter as the “Executive”) and Momentus Inc. (the “Company”), a Delaware corporation, sets forth the terms and conditions that shall govern Executive’s employment with the Company (referred to hereinafter as “Employment” or the “Employment Period”) and post-Employment, effective as of immediately after the Closing of the Transactions (as those terms are defined in the Merger Agreement) (the “Effective Date”).

 

1. Duties and Scope of Employment.

 

(a) At-Will Employment. Executive’s Employment with the Company is for no specified period and constitutes “at will” employment. Except as otherwise set forth herein, Executive is free to terminate Employment at any time, with or without advance notice, and for any reason or for no reason. Similarly, the Company is free to terminate Executive’s Employment at any time, with or without advance notice, and with or without Cause (as defined below). Furthermore, although terms and conditions of Executive’s Employment with the Company may change over time, nothing shall change the at-will nature of Executive’s Employment.

 

(b) Position and Responsibilities. During the Employment Period, the Company agrees to employ Executive in the position of Chief Executive Officer. Executive will report to the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) or to such other Person as the Board subsequently may determine (Executive’s “Supervisor). Executive will be working out of the Company’s office in Santa Clara, California. Executive will perform the duties and have the responsibilities and authority customarily performed and held by an employee in Executive’s position or as otherwise may be assigned or delegated to Executive by Executive’s Supervisor.

 

(c) Obligations to the Company. During the Employment Period, Executive shall perform Executive’s duties faithfully and to the best of Executive’s ability and will devote Executive’s full business efforts and time to the Company. During the Employment Period, without the prior written approval of Executive’s Supervisor, Executive shall not render services in any capacity to any other Person and shall not act as a sole proprietor, advisor or partner of any other Person or own more than five percent (5%) of the stock of any other corporation with the exception of (i) of Unfurl Inc., a Delaware corporation (dba as Abound Kitchen Inc.), and (ii) Datum Planes Inc., a Delaware corporation; provided that Executive’s activities and involvement with (i) or (ii) do not individually or in the aggregate interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties under this Agreement or create a potential business or fiduciary conflict. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Executive may serve on civic or charitable boards or committees, deliver lectures, fulfill speaking engagements, teach at educational institutions, or manage personal investments without advance written consent of Executive’s Supervisor; provided that such activities do not individually or in the aggregate interfere with the performance of Executive’s duties under this Agreement or create a potential business or fiduciary conflict. Executive shall comply with the Company’s policies and rules, as they may be in effect from time to time during Executive’s Employment.

 

 

 

(d) No Conflicting Obligations. Executive represents and warrants to the Company that Executive is under no obligations or commitments, whether contractual or otherwise, that are inconsistent with Executive’s obligations under this Agreement or that would otherwise prohibit Executive from performing Executive’s duties with the Company. In connection with Executive’s Employment, Executive shall not use or disclose any trade secrets or other proprietary information or intellectual property in which Executive or any other Person has any right, title or interest and Executive’s Employment will not infringe or violate the rights of any other Person. Executive represents and warrants to the Company that Executive has returned all property and confidential information belonging to any prior employer.

 

2. Cash and Incentive Compensation.

 

(a) Base Salary. The Company shall pay Executive, as compensation for Executive’s services, a base salary at a gross annual rate of $180,000, less all required tax withholdings and other applicable deductions, in accordance with the Company’s standard payroll procedures. The annual compensation specified in this Section 2(a), together with any modifications in such compensation that the Company may make from time to time, is referred to in this Agreement as the “Base Salary.” Executive’s Base Salary will be subject to review and adjustments that will be made based upon the Company’s normal performance review practices by the Board or the Compensation Committee of the Board (the “Committee”). Notwithstanding the forgoing, during the first ten years after the Closing, the Base Salary will not be increased above: (i) 50% of the median base salary of the chief executive officers in a peer group comprised of at least 12 broadly-similar publicly-traded companies that are agreed upon by Executive and the Committee, or if no such peer group is determined, (ii) the average salary of the then three most highly paid employees of the Company excluding the Executive following the Closing of the Transactions. Effective as of the date of any change to Executive’s Base Salary, the Base Salary as so changed shall be considered the new Base Salary for all purposes of this Agreement.

 

(b) Cash Incentive Bonus. Executive will be eligible to be considered for an annual cash incentive bonus (the “Cash Bonus”) each calendar year during the Employment Period based upon the achievement of certain objective or subjective criteria (collectively, the “Performance Goals”). In compliance with all relevant legal requirements and based on Executive’s level within the Company, the Performance Goals for Executive’s Cash Bonus for a particular year will be established by, and in the sole discretion of, the Board or the Committee. The initial target amount for any such Cash Bonus will be up to 50% of Executive’s Base Salary (the “Target Bonus Percentage”), less all required tax withholdings and other applicable deductions. The determinations of the Board or the Committee, as applicable, with respect to such Cash Bonus or the Target Bonus Percentage shall be final and binding. Executive’s Target Bonus Percentage for any subsequent year may be adjusted up or down, as determined in the sole discretion of the Board or the Committee. Executive shall not earn a Cash Bonus unless Executive is employed by the Company on the date when such Cash Bonus is actually paid by the Company.

 

(c) Equity Awards.

 

(i) CEO Option Grant. Subject to the approval of the Board and stockholders of the Company, Executive will be granted a non-statutory stock option to purchase that number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock equal to 12.5% of the sum of: (i) the outstanding shares of the Company immediately following the Closing of the Transactions (giving effect to the redemptions of the Company’s public shares) and (ii) the aggregate number of shares of Company Class A Common Stock underlying the outstanding Momentus options and warrants assumed by the Company in the Transactions (the “CEO Option Grant“). The CEO Option Grant will have an exercise price equal to the fair market value of the Company’s Class A Common Stock on the date of its grant. Payment of the exercise price of the CEO Option Grant can be made by Executive using a same-day sale or equivalent immaculate/net option exercise procedure and Executive can immediately sell any shares necessary to cover any tax or withholding obligations related to the exercise of the CEO Option Grant. Executive, however, will be required to hold any shares of stock received pursuant to the exercise of the CEO Option Grant (other than those shares used to pay the exercise price and tax and withholding obligations) until the earlier to occur of (i) 2 years from the date of exercise and (ii) 9 years from the date of the CEO Option Grant. The CEO Option Grant will be subject to the other terms and conditions, including the vesting schedule, provided in the CEO Option Grant stock option agreement attached hereto as Attachment A (the “CEO Stock Option Agreement”) and the Company’s 2020 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Plan”). Although subject to the provisions of the Equity Plan, the CEO Option Grant will be granted outside of the Equity Plan.

(ii) Eligibility for Future Equity Awards. During the first ten years after the Closing, Executive will not be eligible for future equity awards from the Company until the Performance-Based Vesting Requirements (i.e. both the Stock Price Milestone and the Operational Milestone) for at least seventy-five percent (75%) of the shares subject to the CEO Option Grant have been satisfied by Board Certification (as such capitalized terms are defined in the CEO Stock Option Agreement).

 

3. Employee Benefits. During the Employment Period, Executive shall be eligible to (a) receive paid time off (“PTO”) in accordance with the Company’s PTO policy, as it may be amended from time to time and (b) participate in the employee benefit plans maintained by the Company and generally available to similarly situated employees of the Company, subject in each case to the generally applicable terms and conditions of the plan or policy in question and to the determinations of any Person or committee administering such employee benefit plan or policy. The Company reserves the right to cancel or change the employee benefit plans, policies and programs it offers to its employees at any time.

The Accrued Benefits described in clauses (i) and (ii) of the preceding sentence shall be paid within thirty (30) days after the date of termination of Executive’s Employment (or such earlier date as may be required by applicable law) and the Accrued Benefits described in clause (iii) of the preceding sentence shall be paid in accordance with the terms of the governing plan, policy or arrangement.

 

6. Termination Benefits.

 

(a) Involuntary Termination. If (i) the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or successor of the Company) terminates Executive’s Employment with the Company for a reason other than (A) Cause, (B) Executive becoming Disabled or (C) Executive’s death; or (ii) if Executive resigns from Employment with the Company for Good Reason (as defined below) ((i) or (ii) each, an “Involuntary Termination”), then, subject to Section 7 (other than with respect to the Accrued Benefits), Executive will be entitled to the following:

(ii) Severance Payment. In exchange for Executive timely signing and not revoking the Release (as defined below) in accordance with the terms therein and in this Agreement, Executive will receive semi-monthly continuing payments of severance pay at a rate equal to Executive’s Base Salary, as then in effect, for three (3) months, less all required tax withholdings and other applicable deductions, which will be paid in accordance with the Company’s regular payroll procedures commencing on the Release Deadline (as defined in Section 7(a)); provided that the first payment shall include any amounts that would have been paid to Executive if payment had commenced on the date of Executive’s Involuntary Termination.

 

(iii) Prior Year Cash Bonus. In the event Executive’s Employment is Involuntarily Terminated in any fiscal year prior to the date the Cash Bonus for the immediately preceding year has been paid, Executive will receive the Cash Bonus for such prior year, the amount of which will be determined in accordance with Section 2(b).

 

(iv) Current Year Pro-Rated Cash Bonus. Executive will receive a pro-rated Cash Bonus for the fiscal year in which Executive’s Involuntary Termination occurs equal to (x) the Cash Bonus that Executive would have received based on actual performance for such fiscal year if Executive had remained in Employment by Company for the entire fiscal year in accordance with Section 2(b) multiplied by (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of days Executive was in Employment with the Company during the fiscal year including the termination date and the denominator of which is 365 (the “Pro-Rated Bonus”). The Pro-Rated Bonus, if any, shall be paid at the same time annual bonuses are paid by the Company to other executives of the Company for the fiscal year in which Executive’s Involuntary Termination occurs, but no later than March 15th of the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive terminated Employment.

 

(v) Equity. Any options granted to Executive under the Space Apprentices Enterprise Inc. 2018 Stock Plan and Momentus' Amended and Restated 2018 Stock Plan shall vest and become exercisable in full effective as of the date of Executive’s Involuntary Termination.

(c) Timing of Payments. Subject to any specific timing provisions in Section 6(a) or 6(b), or the provisions of Section 7, payment of the severance and benefits hereunder shall be made or commence to be made as soon as practicable following Executive’s termination of Employment.

 

-4-

 

 

(d) Exclusive Remedy. In the event of a termination of Executive’s Employment with the Company (or any parent, subsidiary or successor of the Company), the provisions of this Section 6 are intended to be and are exclusive and in lieu of any other rights or remedies to which Executive or the Company may otherwise be entitled, whether at law, tort or contract, in equity, or under this Agreement (other than the payment of accrued but unpaid wages, as required by law, and any unreimbursed reimbursable expenses). Executive will be entitled to no other severance, benefits, compensation or other payments or rights upon a termination of Employment, including, without limitation, any severance payments and/or benefits provided in the Employment Agreement, other than those benefits expressly set forth in Section 6 of this Agreement or pursuant to written equity award agreements with the Company.

 

(e) No Duty to Mitigate. Executive will not be required to mitigate the amount of any payment contemplated by this Agreement, nor will any earnings that Executive may receive from any other source reduce any such payment.

 

7. Conditions to Receipt of Severance.

 

(a) Release of Claims Agreement. The receipt of any severance payments or benefits pursuant to Section 6 of this Agreement is subject to Executive signing and not revoking a separation agreement and release of claims in a form attached hereto as Attachment B (the “Release”), which must become effective no later than the sixtieth (60th) day following Executive’s termination of Employment (the “Release Deadline”), and if not, Executive will forfeit any right to severance payments or benefits under this Agreement. To become effective, the Release must be timely executed by Executive and any revocation periods (as required by statute, regulation, or otherwise) must have expired without Executive having revoked the Release. In addition, in no event will severance payments or benefits be paid or provided until the Release actually becomes effective. If the termination of Employment occurs at a time during the calendar year where the Release Deadline could occur in the calendar year following the calendar year in which Executive’s termination of Employment occurs, then any severance payments or benefits under this Agreement that would be considered Deferred Payments (as defined in Section 7(c)(i)) will be paid on the first payroll date to occur during the calendar year following the calendar year in which such termination occurs, or such later time as required by (i) the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit as set forth in Section 6, (ii) the date the Release becomes effective, or (iii) Section 7(c)(ii); provided that the first payment shall include all amounts that would have been paid to Executive if payment had commenced on the date of Executive’s termination of Employment.

 

(b) Confidentiality Agreement. Executive’s receipt of any payments or benefits under Section 6 will be subject to Executive continuing to comply with the terms of the Confidentiality Agreement (as defined in Section 12 below).

 

(c) Section 409A.

 

(i) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, no severance pay or benefits to be paid or provided to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that, when considered together with any other severance payments or separation benefits, are considered deferred compensation not exempt under Section 409A (together, the “Deferred Payments”) will be paid or otherwise provided until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. And for purposes of this Agreement, any reference to “termination of Employment,” “termination” or any similar term shall be construed to mean a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A. Similarly, no severance payable to Executive, if any, pursuant to this Agreement that otherwise would be exempt from Section 409A pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.409A-1(b)(9) will be payable until Executive has a “separation from service” within the meaning of Section 409A.

 

-5-

 

 

(ii) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Executive is a “specified employee” within the meaning of Section 409A at the time of Executive’s termination of Employment (other than due to death), then the Deferred Payments, if any, that are payable within the first six (6) months following Executive’s separation from service, will become payable on the first payroll date that occurs on or after the date six (6) months and one (1) day following the date of Executive’s separation from service. All subsequent Deferred Payments, if any, will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, if Executive dies following Executive’s separation from service, but prior to the six (6) month anniversary of the separation from service, then any payments delayed in accordance with this paragraph will be payable in a lump sum as soon as administratively practicable after the date of Executive’s death and all other Deferred Payments will be payable in accordance with the payment schedule applicable to each payment or benefit. Each payment, installment and benefit payable under this Agreement is intended to constitute a separate payment for purposes of Section 1.409A-2(b)(2) of the Treasury Regulations.

 

(iii) Without limitation, any amount paid under this Agreement that satisfies the requirements of the “short-term deferral” rule set forth in Section 1.409A-1(b)(4) of the Treasury Regulations is not intended to constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above.

 

(iv) Without limitation, any amount paid under this Agreement that qualifies as a payment made as a result of an involuntary separation from service pursuant to Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations that does not exceed the Section 409A Limit is not intended to constitute Deferred Payments for purposes of clause (i) above. Any payment intended to qualify under this exemption must be made within the allowable time period specified in Section 1.409A-1(b)(9)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations.

 

(v) To the extent that reimbursements or in-kind benefits under this Agreement constitute non-exempt “nonqualified deferred compensation” for purposes of Section 409A, (1) all reimbursements hereunder shall be made on or prior to the last day of the calendar year following the calendar year in which the expense was incurred by Executive, (2) any right to reimbursement or in-kind benefits shall not be subject to liquidation or exchange for another benefit, and (3) the amount of expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits provided in any calendar year shall not in any way affect the expenses eligible for reimbursement or in-kind benefits to be provided, in any other calendar year.

 

(vi) The payments and benefits provided under Sections 6(a) and 6(b) are intended to be exempt from or comply with the requirements of Section 409A so that none of the severance payments and benefits to be provided hereunder will be subject to the additional tax imposed under Section 409A, and any ambiguities or ambiguous terms herein will be interpreted to be exempt or so comply. The Company and Executive agree to work together in good faith to consider amendments to this Agreement and to take such reasonable actions that are necessary, appropriate or desirable to avoid imposition of any additional tax or income recognition prior to actual payment to Executive under Section 409A.

 

8. Restrictive Covenants. In addition to Executive’s obligations under the Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement executed by Executive on October 7, 2020 (the “RCA”), during the period commencing on the date of this Agreement and continuing until the second anniversary of the date when Executive’s Employment terminated for any reason, Executive shall not directly or indirectly, personally or through others:

 

(a) Non-Solicitation of Customers. Solicit, recruit or attempt to solicit or recruit (on Executive’s own behalf or on behalf of any other Person) the business of any customer of the Company or any of the Company’s affiliates on whom Executive called or with whom Executive became acquainted during Executive’s Employment. Executive represents that Executive is (i) familiar with the foregoing covenant not to solicit, and (ii) fully aware of Executive’s obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the reasonableness of the length of time, scope and geographic coverage of these covenants.

 

-6-

 

 

(b) Non-Disparagement. Make any remarks disparaging the conduct or character of the Company, any of the Company’s affiliates, any of the Company’s or any Company affiliates’ current or former employees, officers, directors, successors or assigns. Likewise, the Company will direct the members of its Board and its executive officers not to make any remarks disparaging the Executive’s conduct or character. Neither the Company nor the Executive, however, shall be prevented from disclosing information, or otherwise responding or testifying truthfully, in either case, to the extent required by a lawfully issued subpoena, a duly issued court order or other legal process.

 

To the extent there is a conflict between the provisions in the RCA and the covenants in this Agreement, the more restrictive provision imposed on Executive between the RCA and this Agreement shall control.

 

9. Definition of Terms. The following terms referred to in this Agreement will have the following meanings:

 

(a) Cause. “Cause” means: (i) Executive’s material breach of any term or provision of this Agreement, and such breach is not cured by Executive within thirty (30) days following the provision of written notice to Executive by the Company specifying the nature of such breach; or (ii) the Company’s determination, in good faith, following discussions with Executive providing Executive a reasonable opportunity to explain the underlying facts and circumstances, that Executive has engaged in any of the following actions (provided that the notice of termination shall specify the facts and circumstances giving rise to the termination): (A) Executive has misappropriated, stolen or embezzled funds or property from the Company, or (B) Executive has been convicted of a felony or entered a felony plea of "nolo contendre" which, in the reasonable opinion of the Company, brings Executive into disrepute or is likely to cause material harm to the Company's business, customer or supplier relations, financial condition or prospects.

 

(b) Change in Control. “Change in Control” shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the Equity Plan but, for purposes of clarity, shall exclude the consummation of the Transactions described in the Merger Agreement.

 

(c) Code. “Code” means the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended.

 

(d) Disability. “Disability” or “Disabled” means that Executive is unable to engage in any substantial gainful activity by reason of any medically determinable physical or mental impairment which can be expected to result in death or which has lasted, or can be expected to last, for a continuous period of not less than one (1) year.

 

(e) Good Reason. “Good Reason” means the Executive’s resignation due to the occurrence of any of the following conditions which occurs without Executive’s written consent, provided that the requirements regarding advance notice and an opportunity to cure set forth below are satisfied: (i) a reduction of Executive’s then current base salary by 10% or more unless such reduction is part of a generalized salary reduction affecting similarly situated employees; (2) a change in the Executive’s position with the Company that materially reduces his duties, level of authority or operating responsibility, provided that a mere change in title following a Change in Control to a position that is substantially similar to the position held prior to the Change in Control with respect to the operations of the Company shall not, by itself, constitute a material reduction of the Executive’s duties, level of authority or operating responsibility; (3) the Company conditions the Executive’s continued service with the Company on the Executive’s being transferred to a site of employment that would increase the Executive’s one-way commute by more than 50 miles from the Executive’s then-principal residence, or (4) a material breach by the Company of this Agreement. For the Executive to resign for Good Reason, he must provide written notice to the Company of the existence of the Good Reason condition within 30 days of the initial existence of such Good Reason condition. Upon receipt of such notice, the Company will have 30 days during which it may remedy the Good Reason condition and not be required to provide for the severance benefits described herein as a result of such proposed resignation.

This arbitration agreement does not apply to any claims that have been expressly excluded from arbitration by a governing law not preempted by the Federal Arbitration Act and does not restrict or preclude Executive from communicating with, filing an administrative charge or claim with, or providing testimony to any governmental entity about any actual or potential violation of law or obtaining relief through a government agency process. The parties hereto agree that claims shall be resolved on an individual basis only, and not on a class, collective, or representative basis on behalf of other employees to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law (“Class Waiver”). Any claim that all or part of the Class Waiver is invalid, unenforceable, or unconscionable may be determined only by a court. In no case may class, collective or representative claims proceed in arbitration on behalf of other employees.

 

The parties agree that the arbitration shall be conducted by a single neutral arbitrator through JAMS in accordance with JAMS Employment Arbitration Rules and Procedures (available at www.jamsadr.com/rules-employment-arbitration). Except as to the Class Waiver, the arbitrator shall determine arbitrability. The Company will bear all JAMS arbitration fees and administrative costs in excess of the amount of administrative fees and costs that Executive otherwise would have been required to pay if the claims were litigated in court.

Claims will be governed by their applicable statute of limitations and failure to demand arbitration within the prescribed time period shall bar the claims as provided by law. The decision or award of the arbitrator shall be final and binding upon the parties. This arbitration agreement is enforceable under and governed by the Federal Arbitration Act. In the event that any portion of this arbitration agreement is held to be invalid or unenforceable, any such provision shall be severed, and the remainder of this arbitration agreement will be given full force and effect. By signing the offer letter, Executive acknowledges and agrees that Executive has read this arbitration agreement carefully, are bound by it and are WAIVING ANY RIGHT TO HAVE A TRIAL BEFORE A COURT OR JURY OF ANY AND ALL CLAIMS SUBJECT TO ARBITRATION UNDER THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT.

EXECUTION

 

NON-COMPETITION, NON-SOLICITATION AND
CONFIDENTIALITY AGREEMENT

 

October 7, 2020

 

This Non-Competition, Non-Solicitation and Confidentiality Agreement (this “Agreement”) is entered into as of the date set forth above, by and between Stable Road Acquisition Corp., a Delaware corporation (“Parent”), and Mikhail Kokorich (the “Restricted Party”) and shall become effective, if at all, as of the Closing. Capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Merger Agreement (as defined below).

 

RECITALS

 

WHEREAS, Parent and Momentus Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), have entered into that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of the date hereof (as amended, supplemented or modified from time to time, the “Merger Agreement”), by and among Parent, the Company, Project Marvel First Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a direct, wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent (“First Merger Sub”), and Project Marvel Second Merger Sub, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company and a direct, wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent (“Second Merger Sub”), pursuant to which First Merger Sub shall merge with and into the Company (the “First Merger”), with the Company being the surviving corporation of the First Merger (the “Surviving Corporation”), and immediately following the First Merger, as part of the same overall transaction as the First Merger, the Surviving Corporation will merge with and into Second Merger Sub (the “Second Merger” and, together with the First Merger, the “Mergers”) with Second Merger Sub being the surviving company of the Second Merger (the “Surviving Entity”), and as a result of which the Surviving Entity will become a wholly-owned Subsidiary of Parent, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement;

 

WHEREAS, the Company carries on the Business;

 

WHEREAS, the Restricted Party has access to Confidential Information regarding the Business;

 

WHEREAS, as a condition to the execution of the Merger Agreement and the consummation of the Mergers, Parent has required the execution of this Agreement on the date hereof by the parties hereto to provide for certain restrictions on the Restricted Party, provided such restrictions shall only be effective upon the Closing;

 

WHEREAS, upon consummation of the Mergers pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, the Restricted Party will be the recipient, either directly (under the terms of the Merger Agreement) or indirectly (as an equityholder or officer of the Surviving Entity) of substantial consideration, and will enjoy substantial other benefits, from the consummation of the Mergers and, in consideration thereof, the Restricted Party is agreeing to limit the Restricted Party’s ability to compete with the Company, the Surviving Entity, and its and their successors and assigns as described herein; and

 

 

 

 

WHEREAS, the Restricted Party acknowledges that the agreements and covenants provided by the Restricted Party in this Agreement are essential to protect the value of the Business to Parent (including the goodwill associated with the Business), and such covenants and agreements contained herein are a material inducement to Parent’s, First Merger Sub’s and Second Merger Sub’s agreement to enter into the Merger Agreement and to agree to consummate the Mergers pursuant to the Merger Agreement and neither Parent, First Merger Sub nor Second Merger Sub would have executed the Merger Agreement without such covenants and agreements.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties agree as follows:

 

1. Nondisclosure. The Restricted Party acknowledges that the Confidential Information is the property of the Company (and, following the Effective Time, the Surviving Entity). The Restricted Party shall, and shall cause his or her Affiliates and its and their respective officers, directors, managers, employees, attorneys, agents, advisors and other representatives to, maintain all Confidential Information in strict confidence and secrecy, and shall not, directly or indirectly, (a) use or exploit any Confidential Information for any purpose, (b) disclose any Confidential Information to any Person other than Parent or its Affiliates or (c) assist any other Person in engaging in any of the foregoing, except in performance of the Restricted Party’s services for or on behalf of the Surviving Entity, including, in particular, carrying out the Restricted Party’s duties as an employee of the Surviving Entity (provided, however, that the mere fact that the Restricted Party may in the future, after termination of employment with the Surviving Entity become an employee of another Person shall not create an automatic presumption that the Restricted Party has in fact violated the restriction in this Section 1), or to the extent otherwise (i) necessary to comply with the express terms of, or assert the Restricted Party’s rights under, any written agreement between the Restricted Party and Parent or any of its Affiliates entered into in connection with the Merger Agreement or after the Closing Date or (ii) explicitly requested in writing by Parent. Nothing in this Agreement reduces any obligation of the Restricted Party to, or cause his or her Affiliates to, comply with Laws relating to trade secrets, confidential information and unfair competition. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement, the Restricted Party understands that under the Federal Defend Trade Secrets Act of 2016 (specifically, 18 USC §1833), the Restricted Party shall not be held criminally or civilly liable under any federal or state trade secret law for the disclosure of a trade secret that: (a) is made (i) in confidence to a federal, state, or local government official, either directly or indirectly, or to an attorney, and (ii) solely for the purpose of reporting or investigating a suspected violation of Law; or (b) is made in a complaint or other document filed in a lawsuit or other proceeding, if such filing is made under seal.

 

2. Legal Obligation to Disclose. If the Restricted Party or any of the Restricted Party’s Affiliates is required (by oral or written question or request for information or documents in legal proceedings, interrogatories, subpoena, civil investigation demand or similar process, collectively, a “Legal Process” or by Law) to disclose any Confidential Information at any time after the Closing, then such disclosing Person shall, to the extent permitted under Law, provide Parent with prompt written notice of such requirement to enable Parent (and use reasonable best efforts to cooperate with Parent at Parent’s sole cost and expense) (a) to seek an appropriate protective order or other remedy and/or (b) to waive compliance, in whole or in part, with the terms of this Agreement. If, in the absence of a protective order or the receipt of a waiver under this Agreement, the disclosing Person is nonetheless compelled to disclose such Confidential Information in connection with a Legal Process or as required by Law, then the disclosing Person may disclose such Confidential Information in connection with such Legal Process or as required by Law. The disclosing Person shall not be liable under or in breach of this Agreement for a disclosure in connection with such Legal Process or as required by Law that is made in accordance with this Section 2; provided, however, that if such disclosure was caused or resulted from a previous disclosure by the disclosing Person in violation of this Agreement, then the other terms and provisions of this Agreement shall continue in full force and effect and shall be enforceable by Parent as to such disclosure or disclosures made in violation of this Agreement that resulted in the compelled disclosure.

 

2

 

 

3. Non-Solicitation; Non-Hire; Non-Disparagement. During the Restrictive Period, the Restricted Party shall not directly or indirectly, through another Person (a) solicit or induce or attempt to induce any Person who is an employee, independent contractor or consultant of the Company as of the Closing Date (collectively, “Covered Persons”) to leave the employ of the Surviving Entity or (to the extent limiting the future services such Covered Person has historically provided to the Company, as a consultant, agent, independent contractor, or otherwise) to leave the service of the Surviving Entity, or in any way interfere with the relationship between the Surviving Entity and any such Covered Person, (b) hire or attempt to hire any Covered Person as an employee, independent contractor or consultant or (c) slander, defame or recklessly or intentionally disparage the Surviving Entity or Parent with the intent to cause material harm to the Surviving Entity or Parent or their respective past or present investors, officers, directors, employees or Affiliates in relation to the Business of the Company or the Transactions and the agreements contemplated thereby. The provisions set forth in Section 3(a) shall not prohibit the Restricted Party or any of his or her Affiliates from (i) making any general public solicitation for employees not directed or targeted at any Covered Person, or (ii) soliciting for hire any Covered Person whose employment with the Company is terminated or otherwise ceases so long as no Covered Person is hired (or was solicited prior to such termination or cessation of employment) in violation of this Section 3.

 

4. Non-Competition. The Restricted Party acknowledges and agrees that (a) the Business of the Company and its Subsidiaries is conducted throughout the Geographic Region, (b) the Company’s reputation and goodwill are an integral part of its Business success throughout the Geographic Region, (c) the Restricted Party is familiar with certain of the Company’s trade secrets and with other Confidential Information, (d) the Restricted Party’s services and/or relationships are of special, unique and extraordinary value to the Company, and (e) Parent and its Affiliates would be irreparably damaged if the Restricted Party or any of his Affiliates were to provide services or to otherwise participate in the operations or business of any Person engaged in the Business and that any material competition could result in a significant loss of goodwill by Parent in respect of the Business. The Restricted Party further acknowledges and agrees that (i) the covenants and agreements set forth in this Section 4 were a material inducement to Parent to enter into this Agreement and for Parent, First Merger Sub and Second Merger Sub to enter into the Merger Agreement and to perform their respective obligations hereunder and thereunder, (ii) Parent and its Affiliates would not obtain the benefit of the bargain set forth in the Merger Agreement as specifically negotiated by the parties thereto if the Restricted Party or any of his Affiliates breached the provisions of this Section 4, (iii) the covenants set forth Section 3 and this Section 4 are being made by the Restricted Party in connection with the direct and/or indirect sale by the Restricted Party of Company Interests pursuant to the Merger Agreement and not directly or indirectly in connection with the Restricted Party’s employment or other relationship with the Company and, (iv) the character, duration and scope of this Agreement are reasonable in light of the circumstances as they exist on the date upon which this Agreement is executed, including the Restricted Party’s economic interest in the Mergers and the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement. Therefore, in further consideration of the amounts to be paid pursuant to the Merger Agreement and to protect the goodwill of the Business of the Company sold in connection therewith, and as a condition to Parent’s, First Merger Sub’s and Second Merger Sub’s willingness to enter into the Merger Agreement and Parent’s willingness to enter into this Agreement, as applicable, the Restricted Party shall not, and shall cause and direct his Affiliates not to, during the period beginning at the Closing and ending on the date of the expiration of the Restrictive Period, directly or indirectly or (x) own any interest in, manage, control, consult with, render services for, or be employed by, any Person that engages or participates in any manner, in the Business within any Geographic Region. Nothing herein shall prohibit the Restricted Party or any of his or her Affiliates from being a passive owner of not more than 5% of any class of stock of a corporation, which class of stock is publicly traded, so long as neither the Restricted Party nor any of its Affiliates has any active participation in the business of such corporation.

5. Enforcement.

 

(a) If at the time of enforcement of Section 1, Section 2, Section 3 or Section 4, a court of competent jurisdiction holds that the restrictions stated therein are unreasonable under circumstances then existing, including by reason of its extending for too great a period of time or over too great a geographical area or by reason of its being too extensive in any other respect, the parties hereto agree that the maximum period, scope or geographical area enforceable under such circumstances shall be substituted for the stated period, scope or area and that the court of competent jurisdiction shall be allowed to revise the restrictions contained therein to cover the maximum period, scope and area permitted by Law. The existence of any claim or cause of action by the Restricted Party or any of his or her Affiliates against Parent, First Merger Sub, Second Merger Sub, the Company or the Surviving Entity shall not constitute and shall not be asserted as a defense to the enforcement by Parent or any of its Affiliates of this Agreement. The parties hereto agree that Parent and its Affiliates would suffer irreparable harm from a breach of Section 1, Section 2 , Section 3 or Section 4 by the Restricted Party and that money damages would not be an adequate remedy for any such breach of this Agreement. Therefore, in the event of a breach or threatened breach of this Agreement, Parent and its Affiliates and their successors or assigns, in addition to other rights and remedies existing in their favor, shall be entitled to specific performance and/or injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction in order to enforce, or prevent any violations of, the provisions hereof (without posting a bond or other security). In addition, in the event of an alleged breach or violation by the Restricted Party of Section 3 or Section 4, the Restrictive Period will be tolled until such breach or violation has been duly cured. The Restricted Party acknowledges and agrees that due to the proprietary nature of the Business, the restrictions contained in this Agreement are reasonable (including as to duration, geographical area and scope) and are necessary to ensure the preservation, protection and continuity of the Business, trade secrets and goodwill of the Company and that the Restricted Party has reviewed the provisions of this Agreement with his or her legal counsel.

 

(b) The Restricted Party acknowledges that (i) the enforcement of any covenants set forth in this Agreement against the Restricted Party would not impose any undue burden upon the Restricted Party and (ii) none of the covenants set forth in this Agreement are unreasonable as to duration or scope.

6. Miscellaneous.

 

(a) Effectiveness. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, this Agreement will become effective upon, and only upon, the Closing. If the Closing does not occur or the Merger Agreement is validly terminated for any reason, this Agreement shall automatically become null and void ab initio with no further action required on the part of either party.

 

(b) Notices. All notices and other communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed given: (i) on the date established by the sender as having been delivered personally; (ii) one Business Day after being sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier guaranteeing overnight delivery; (iii) upon transmission, if sent by email (provided no “bounceback” or notice of non-delivery is received); or (iv) on the fifth Business Day after the date mailed, by certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid.

(d) Waiver. No failure or delay of either party in exercising any right or remedy hereunder shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any such right or power, or any abandonment or discontinuance of steps to enforce such right or power, or any course of conduct, preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or power. A waiver of right or remedy on any one occasion shall not be construed as a bar to or waiver of any such right or remedy on any other occasion. Except as otherwise provided herein, the rights and remedies of the parties hereunder are cumulative and are not exclusive of any rights or remedies, which they would otherwise have hereunder. Any agreement on the part of either party hereto to any such waiver shall be valid only if set forth in a written instrument executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer on behalf of such party.

 

(e) Assignment. Neither this Agreement nor any of the rights, interests or obligations under this Agreement may be assigned or delegated, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, by any party hereto without the prior written consent of the other party, and any such assignment without such prior written consent shall be null and void; provided, that

 

(i) Parent may, without the written consent of the Restricted Party, assign, in whole or in part, its rights and obligations pursuant to this Agreement to one or more of its Affiliates;

 

(ii) Parent and the Surviving Entity may, without the written consent of the Restricted Party, each assign their rights under this Agreement for collateral security purposes to any lender providing financing to Parent or the Surviving Entity, or any of their Affiliates and any such lender may exercise all of the rights and remedies of such assignor, as applicable, hereunder and thereunder; and

 

(iii) Parent and the Surviving Entity may, without the written consent of the Restricted Party, each assign their rights under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to any subsequent purchaser of Parent or the Surviving Entity and its Subsidiaries or any material portion of their assets (whether such sale is structured as a sale of stock, a sale of assets, a merger, or otherwise).

 

(f) Third-Party Beneficiaries. This Agreement shall be binding upon and inure solely to the benefit of each of the parties and their respective successors and assigns, and nothing in this Agreement, express or implied, is intended to or shall confer upon any other Person any legal or equitable right, benefit or remedy of any nature under or by reason of this Agreement.

 

(g) Severability. Whenever possible, each provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under Law, but if any provision or portion of any provision of this Agreement is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable in any respect under any Law or rule in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability shall not affect any other provision or portion of any provision in such jurisdiction, and this Agreement shall be reformed, construed and enforced in such jurisdiction as if such invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision or portion of any provision had never been contained herein.

 

6

 

 

(h) Entire Agreement. This Agreement and the Merger Agreement, and the other documents and instruments referred to herein and therein, constitute the entire agreement and understanding among the parties and supersedes all other prior agreements and undertakings, both written and oral, among the parties, or any of them, with respect to the subject matter hereof; provided, that nothing herein shall modify, amend, supersede or waive any rights under any existing or future non- disclosure, non-solicitation, non-hire, non-competition, non-disparagement, confidentiality, invention assignment, work product, work-for-hire, intellectual property protection or assignment or other restrictive covenant or similar obligations between the Restricted Party and the Company.

 

(i) Counterparts; Electronic Delivery. This Agreement and any amendments hereto may be executed in one or more counterparts, each of which shall be an original. Any such counterpart, to the extent delivered by means of a facsimile machine or electronic mail (any such delivery, an “Electronic Delivery”), shall be treated in all manner and respects as an original executed counterpart and shall be considered to have the same binding legal effect as if it were the original signed version thereof delivered in person. At the request of any party hereto, each other party hereto or thereto shall re-execute the original form of this Agreement and deliver such form to all other parties. No party hereto shall raise the use of Electronic Delivery to deliver a signature or the fact that any signature or agreement or instrument was transmitted or communicated through the use of Electronic Delivery as a defense to the formation of a contract, and each such party forever waives any such defense, except to the extent such defense relates to lack of authenticity.

 

(j) Governing Law. This Agreement, the rights of the parties hereunder and all Legal Proceedings arising in whole or in part under or in connection herewith (whether sounding in contract, tort or equity), will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the domestic substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws or any statute of limitations of any other jurisdiction.

 

(k) Consent to Jurisdiction. Each of the parties hereto, by execution hereof, hereby (i) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court located in the State of Delaware and the state courts of the State of Delaware for the purpose of any Legal Proceeding among any of the parties hereto relating to or arising in whole or in part under or in connection with this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, any Transaction Agreement or the Transactions, (ii) waives to the extent not prohibited by applicable Law, and agrees not to assert, by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise, in any such Legal Proceeding, any claim that it is not subject personally to the jurisdiction of the above-named courts, that its property is exempt or immune from attachment or execution, that any such Legal Proceeding brought in one of the above-named courts should be dismissed on grounds of forum non conveniens, should be transferred or removed to any court other than one of the above-named courts, or should be stayed by reason of the pendency of some other Legal Proceeding in any other court other than one of the above- named courts or that this Agreement, the Merger Agreement, any Transaction Agreement or the Transactions, or the subject matter hereof or thereof may not be enforced in or by such court and (iii) agrees not to commence any such Legal Proceeding other than before one of the above-named courts.

(l) Waiver of Jury Trial. EACH OF THE PARTIES HERETO IRREVOCABLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL OF ANY CLAIM OR CAUSE OF ACTION BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS AGREEMENT OR ANY DEALINGS BETWEEN THE PARTIES RELATING TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT. THE PARTIES ALSO WAIVE ANY BOND OR SURETY OR SECURITY UPON SUCH BOND WHICH MIGHT, BUT FOR THIS WAIVER, BE REQUIRED OF ANY OF THE OTHER PARTIES. THE SCOPE OF THIS WAIVER IS INTENDED TO BE ALL-ENCOMPASSING OF ANY AND ALL DISPUTES THAT MAY BE FILED IN ANY COURT AND THAT RELATE TO THE SUBJECT MATTER OF THIS AGREEMENT, INCLUDING CONTRACT CLAIMS, TORT CLAIMS, BREACH OF DUTY CLAIMS, AND ALL OTHER COMMON LAW AND STATUTORY CLAIMS.

THIS WAIVER IS IRREVOCABLE, MEANING THAT IT MAY NOT BE MODIFIED EITHER ORALLY OR IN WRITING, AND THE WAIVER SHALL APPLY TO ANY SUBSEQUENT AMENDMENTS, RENEWALS, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THIS AGREEMENT OR TO ANY OTHER DOCUMENTS OR AGREEMENTS RELATING TO THE TRANSACTION COMPLETED HEREBY. IN THE EVENT OF LITIGATION, THIS AGREEMENT MAY BE FILED AS A WRITTEN CONSENT TO A TRIAL BY THE COURT.

 

(m) No Presumption Against Drafting Party. The parties hereto have participated jointly in the negotiation and drafting of this Agreement. In the event of an ambiguity or question of intent or interpretation arises, this Agreement shall be construed as if drafted jointly by the parties hereto, and no presumption or burden of proof shall arise favoring or disfavoring any party by virtue of the authorship of any of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

(n) Further Assurances. Each party hereto covenants that at any time, and from time to time, after the date hereof, it will execute such additional instruments and take such actions as may be reasonably requested by the other party to confirm, perfect or otherwise carry out the intent and purposes of this Agreement.

 

(o) Interpretation. When a reference is made in this Agreement to a Section, such reference shall be to a Section of this Agreement unless otherwise indicated.

WHEREAS, pursuant to an Exchange Agreement by and between the Company and the Purchaser, dated on or about the date hereof, 80% of the Original Purchased Shares, 40,000,000 Shares, were reconstituted into shares of the Company’s Class B Common Stock (the “Class B Purchased Shares”) and 20% of the Original Purchased Shares, 10,000,000 Shares, were reconstituted into shares of the Company’s FF Preferred Stock (the “FF Preferred Purchased Shares” and together with the Class B Purchased Shares, the “Purchased Shares”); and

 

WHEREAS, in order to induce the Company to enter into a sale of shares of its Preferred Stock to certain investors, the Purchaser hereby agrees to the imposition of contractual restrictions with respect to the Class B Purchased Shares, and the Purchaser and the Company hereby agree that this Agreement shall govern the right of the Company to repurchase the Class B Purchased Shares in certain circumstances;

 

WHEREAS, the FF Preferred Purchased Shares shall be fully-vested; and

 

WHEREAS, capitalized terms not defined above are defined in Section 8 of this Agreement.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual promises and covenants set forth herein, the parties hereby agree as follows:

 

Section 1. RIGHT OF REPURCHASE.

 

(a) Scope of Repurchase Right. The FF Preferred Purchased Shares shall be fully vested and shall not be Restricted Shares. Until they vest in accordance with Subsection (b) below, the Class B Purchased Shares shall be Restricted Shares and shall be subject to the Company’s Right of Repurchase. The Company may exercise its Right of Repurchase only during the Repurchase Period following the termination of the Purchaser’s Service, and shall be deemed to have automatically exercised the Right of Repurchase in accordance with Subsection (d) below, unless the Company provides notice to the holder of the Restricted Shares that it will not be exercising its Right of Repurchase. The Company may exercise its Right of Repurchase only with respect to the portion of the Restricted Shares that has not vested in accordance with Subsection (b) below. If the Right of Repurchase is exercised, the Company shall pay the Purchaser an amount equal to the Repurchase Price for each of the Restricted Shares being repurchased.

 

 

 

 

(b) Lapse of Repurchase Right. The Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to 1/48th of the Class B Purchased Shares when the Purchaser completes each month of continuous Service from the Vesting Commencement Date. In addition, the following rules shall apply if the Company is subject to a Change in Control before the Purchaser’s Service terminates:

 

If the Purchaser is subject to an Involuntary Termination within 12 months after the Change in Control, then Right of Repurchase shall lapse with respect to 100% of any remaining Restricted Shares.

 

(c) Restricted Shares Held. Upon execution of this Agreement, the Restricted Shares, and any certificate(s) for the Restricted Shares (whether electronic or otherwise), shall be held by the Company in escrow in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. Any additional or exchanged securities or other property described in Subsection (f) below that are Restricted Shares in accordance herewith shall immediately be delivered to the Company to be held in escrow. All ordinary cash dividends on Restricted Shares (or on other securities held in escrow) shall be paid directly to the Purchaser and shall not be held in escrow. Restricted Shares, together with any other assets held in escrow under this Agreement, shall be (i) surrendered to the Company for repurchase upon exercise of the Right of Repurchase or the Right of First Refusal or (ii) released to the Purchaser to the extent that the Shares have ceased to be Restricted Shares.

 

(d) Exercise of Repurchase Right. The Company shall be deemed to have exercised its Right of Repurchase automatically for all Restricted Shares as of the commencement of the Repurchase Period, unless the Company during the Repurchase Period notifies the holder of the Restricted Shares pursuant to Section 6 that it will not exercise its Right of Repurchase for some or all of the Restricted Shares. The Company shall pay to the holder of the Restricted Shares the Repurchase Price for the Restricted Shares being repurchased. Payment shall be made in cash or cash equivalents and/or by canceling indebtedness to the Company incurred by the Purchaser in the purchase of the Restricted Shares. The certificate(s) representing the Restricted Shares being repurchased shall be released from escrow and promptly delivered to the Company.

 

(e) Termination of Rights as Stockholder. If the Right of Repurchase is exercised in accordance with this Section 1 and the Company makes available the consideration for the Restricted Shares being repurchased, then the person from whom the Restricted Shares are repurchased shall no longer have any rights as a holder of the Restricted Shares (other than the right to receive payment of such consideration). Such Restricted Shares shall be deemed to have been repurchased pursuant to this Section 1, whether or not the certificate(s) for such Restricted Shares have been delivered to the Company or the consideration for such Restricted Shares has been accepted.

 

  2  

 

 

(f) Additional or Exchanged Securities and Property. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity, any other corporate reorganization, a stock split, the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than stock, a spin-off, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding securities, any securities or other property (including cash or cash equivalents) that are by reason of such transaction exchanged for, or distributed with respect to, any Restricted Shares shall continue to the existing vesting schedule set forth herein. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the exchange or distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number and/or class of the Restricted Shares. Appropriate adjustments shall also be made to the price per share to be paid upon the exercise of the Right of Repurchase, provided that the aggregate purchase price payable for the Restricted Shares shall remain the same. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity or any other corporate reorganization, the Right of Repurchase may be exercised by the Company’s successor in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

 

(g) Transfer of Restricted Shares. The Purchaser shall not transfer, assign, encumber or otherwise dispose of any Restricted Shares without the Company’s written consent, except for Permitted Transfers, provided that the Transferee agrees in writing on a form prescribed by the Company to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement. If the Purchaser transfers any Restricted Shares in accordance with this Section 1(g), then this Agreement shall apply to the Transferee to the same extent as to the Purchaser.

 

(h) Assignment of Repurchase Right. With the approval of the Board of Directors, the Company may freely assign the Company’s Right of Repurchase, in whole or in part. Any person who accepts an assignment of the Right of Repurchase from the Company shall assume all of the Company’s rights and obligations under this Section 1.

 

(i) Part-Time Employment and Leaves of Absence. If the Purchaser commences working on a part-time basis, then the Company may adjust the vesting schedule set forth in Subsection (b) above. If the Purchaser goes on a leave of absence, then the Company may adjust the vesting schedule set forth in Subsection (b) above in accordance with the Company’s leave of absence policy or the terms of such leave. Except as provided in the preceding sentence, Service shall be deemed to continue while the Purchaser is on a bona fide leave of absence, if (i) such leave was approved in advance by the Company in writing and (ii) continued crediting of Service is expressly required by the terms of such leave or by applicable law (as determined by the Company). Service shall be deemed to terminate when such leave ends, unless the Purchaser immediately returns to active work.

 

Section 2. RIGHT OF FIRST REFUSAL.

 

(a) Right of First Refusal. In the event that the Purchaser proposes to sell, pledge or otherwise transfer to a third party any Purchased Shares, or any interest in Purchased Shares, the Company shall have the Right of First Refusal with respect to all (and not less than all) of such Purchased Shares. If the Purchaser desires to transfer Purchased Shares, the Purchaser shall give a written Transfer Notice to the Company describing fully the proposed transfer, including the number of Purchased Shares proposed to be transferred, the proposed transfer price, the name and address of the proposed Transferee and proof satisfactory to the Company that the proposed sale or transfer will not violate any applicable federal, State or foreign securities laws. The Transfer Notice shall be signed both by the Purchaser and by the proposed Transferee and must constitute a binding commitment of both parties to the transfer of the Purchased Shares. The Company shall have the right to purchase all, and not less than all, of the Purchased Shares on the terms of the proposal described in the Transfer Notice (subject, however, to any change in such terms permitted under Subsection (b) below) by delivery of a notice of exercise of the Right of First Refusal within 30 days after the date when the Transfer Notice was received by the Company.

 

  3  

 

 

(b) Transfer of Shares. If the Company fails to exercise its Right of First Refusal within 30 days after receiving the Transfer Notice, the Purchaser may, not later than 90 days after the Company received the Transfer Notice, conclude a transfer of the Purchased Shares subject to the Transfer Notice on the same terms and conditions described in the Transfer Notice, provided that any such sale is made in compliance with applicable federal, State and foreign securities laws and not in violation of any other contractual restrictions to which the Purchaser is bound. Any proposed transfer on terms and conditions different from those described in the Transfer Notice, as well as any subsequent proposed transfer by the Purchaser, shall again be subject to the Right of First Refusal and shall require compliance with the procedure described in Subsection (a) above. If the Company exercises its Right of First Refusal, the parties shall consummate the sale of the Purchased Shares on the terms set forth in the Transfer Notice within 60 days after the Company received the Transfer Notice (or within such longer period as may have been specified in the Transfer Notice); provided, however, that in the event the Transfer Notice provided that payment for the Purchased Shares was to be made in a form other than cash or cash equivalents paid at the time of transfer, the Company shall have the option of paying for the Purchased Shares with cash or cash equivalents equal to the present value of the consideration described in the Transfer Notice.

 

(c) Additional or Exchanged Securities and Property. In the event of a merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another entity, any other corporate reorganization, a stock split, the declaration of a stock dividend, the declaration of an extraordinary dividend payable in a form other than stock, a spin-off, an adjustment in conversion ratio, a recapitalization or a similar transaction affecting the Company’s outstanding securities, any securities or other property (including cash or cash equivalents) that are by reason of such transaction exchanged for, or distributed with respect to, any Purchased Shares subject to this Section 2 shall immediately be subject to the Right of First Refusal. Appropriate adjustments to reflect the exchange or distribution of such securities or property shall be made to the number and/or class of the Purchased Shares subject to this Section 2.

 

(d) Termination of Right of First Refusal. Any other provision of this Section 2 notwithstanding, in the event that the Stock is readily tradable on an established securities market when the Purchaser desires to transfer Purchased Shares, the Company shall have no Right of First Refusal, and the Purchaser shall have no obligation to comply with the procedures prescribed by Subsections (a) and (b) above.

 

(e) Permitted Transfers. This Section 2 shall not apply to (i) a transfer by beneficiary designation, will or intestate succession or (ii) a Permitted Transfer, provided that, in either case, the Transferee agrees in writing on a form prescribed by the Company to be bound by all provisions of this Agreement. If the Purchaser transfers any Purchased Shares, either under this Subsection (e) or after the Company has failed to exercise the Right of First Refusal, then this Agreement shall apply to the Transferee to the same extent as to the Purchaser.

 

  4  

 

 

(f) Termination of Rights as Stockholder. If the Company makes available, at the time and place and in the amount and form provided in this Agreement, the consideration for the Purchased Shares to be purchased in accordance with this Section 2, then after such time the person from whom such Purchased Shares are to be purchased shall no longer have any rights as a holder of such Purchased Shares (other than the right to receive payment of such consideration in accordance with this Agreement). Such Purchased Shares shall be deemed to have been purchased in accordance with the applicable provisions hereof, whether or not the certificate(s) therefor have been delivered as required by this Agreement.

 

(g) Assignment of Right of First Refusal. The Board of Directors may freely assign the Company’s Right of First Refusal, in whole or in part. Any person who accepts an assignment of the Right of First Refusal from the Company shall assume all of the Company’s rights and obligations under this Section 2.

 

Section 3. SUCCESSORS AND ASSIGNS.

 

Except as otherwise expressly provided to the contrary, the provisions of this Agreement shall inure to the benefit of, and be binding upon, the Company and its successors and assigns and be binding upon the Purchaser and the Purchaser’s legal representatives, heirs, legatees, distributees, assigns and transferees by operation of law, whether or not any such person has become a party to this Agreement or has agreed in writing to join herein and to be bound by the terms, conditions and restrictions hereof. Except as expressly provided herein, the Purchaser may not assign this Agreement or any of its rights or obligations hereunder without prior written consent of the Company.

 

Section 4. NO RETENTION RIGHTS.

 

Nothing in this Agreement shall confer upon the Purchaser any right to continue in Service for any period of specific duration or interfere with or otherwise restrict in any way the rights of the Company (or any Parent or Subsidiary employing or retaining the Purchaser) or of the Purchaser, which rights are hereby expressly reserved by each, to terminate his Service at any time and for any reason, with or without Cause.

 

Section 5. LEGEND.

 

All certificates evidencing Class B Purchased Shares shall bear the following legend (in addition to any legend(s) required by the Stock Transfer Agreement or applicable law):

SUCH AGREEMENT GRANTS TO THE COMPANY CERTAIN REPURCHASE RIGHTS UPON TERMINATION OF SERVICE WITH THE COMPANY. THE SECRETARY OF THE COMPANY WILL UPON WRITTEN REQUEST FURNISH A COPY OF SUCH AGREEMENT TO THE HOLDER HEREOF WITHOUT CHARGE.”
