PROMISSORY NOTE

 

Principal Amount: $300,000 Dated as of March 15, 2024

 

A SPAC I Acquisition Corp., a British Virgin Islands business company (the “Maker”), promises to pay to the order of A SPAC (Holdings) Acquisition Corp. or its designated affiliates, registered assigns or successors in interest (the “Payee”) the principal sum of up to Three Hundred Thousand Dollars ($300,000) in lawful money of the United States of America, on the terms and conditions described below. All payments on this Note shall be made by check or wire transfer of immediately available funds or as otherwise determined by the Maker to such account as the Payee may from time to time designate by written notice in accordance with the provisions of this Note.

 

1. Principal. The principal balance of this Promissory Note (this “Note”) shall be payable promptly on demand and, in any event, no later than the date on which the Maker terminates or consummates an initial business combination (a “Business Combination”) with a target business (as described in its initial public offering prospectus dated February 14, 2022 (the “Prospectus”)). The principal balance may be prepaid at any time.

 

2. Drawdown Requests. The principal of this Note may be drawn down from time to time prior to the due date hereof upon written request from the Maker to the Payee (each, a “Drawdown Request”). Each Drawdown Request shall state the amount to be drawn down; provided, however, that the maximum amount of drawdowns outstanding under this Note may not exceed Three Hundred Thousand Dollars (US$300,000).

 

3. Conversion Rights. The Payee has the right, but not the obligation, to convert this Note, in whole or in part, into private placement warrants (the “Warrants” or “Warrant”), of the Maker, as described in the Prospectus, at the option of the Payee. The number of Warrants to be received by the Payee in connection with such conversion shall be an amount determined by dividing (x) the sum of the outstanding principal amount payable to such Payee by (y) $1.00.

 

(a) Fractional Warrants. No fractional Warrants will be issued upon conversion of this Note. In lieu of any fractional Warrants to which Payee would otherwise be entitled, Maker will pay to Payee in cash the amount of the unconverted principal balance of this Note that would otherwise be converted into such fractional Warrant.

 

(b) Effect of Conversion. If the Payee elects to convert this Note into Warrants, this Note shall be deemed to be converted on the date the Business Combination closes. At its expense, the Maker will, as soon as practicable after receiving this Note for cancellation after the closing of a Business Combination, issue and deliver to Payee, at Payee’s address set forth on the signature page hereto or such other address requested by Payee, a certificate or certificates for the number of Warrants to which Payee is entitled upon such conversion (bearing such legends as are customary pursuant to applicable state and federal securities laws), including a check payable to Payee for any cash amounts payable as a result of any fractional Warrant as described herein.

 

 


 

4. Interest. No interest shall accrue on the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

 

5. Application of Payments. All payments shall be applied first to payment in full of any costs incurred in the collection of any sum due under this Note, including (without limitation) reasonable attorney’s fees, then to the payment in full of any late charges and finally to the reduction of the unpaid principal balance of this Note.

 

6. Events of Default. The following shall constitute an event of default (“Event of Default”):

 

(a) Failure to Make Required Payments. Failure by Maker to (i) issue Warrants pursuant to Section 3 hereof, if so elected by the Payee or (ii) pay the principal of this Note when due (whether at maturity, because of a mandatory prepayment provision or acceleration or otherwise) or to pay any other amount due under this Note within five (5) business days following the due date thereof.

 

(b) Voluntary Liquidation, Etc. The commencement by Maker or any subsidiary thereof of a proceeding under any law relating to its bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, rehabilitation, adjustment of debts, relief of debtors, dissolution, liquidation, winding up or other similar action (“Insolvency Laws”), or the consent by it to the appointment of, or taking possession by, a receiver, liquidator, assignee, trustee, custodian, sequestrator (or other similar official) for Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or the making by it of any assignment for the benefit of creditors, or the failure of Maker generally to pay its debts as such debts become due, or the taking of corporate action by Maker in furtherance of any of the foregoing.

 

(c) Involuntary Bankruptcy, Etc. (A) The commencement by any person other than Maker of a case against Maker or any of its subsidiaries under any Insolvency Law that is not dismissed within 45 days, or (B) the commencement of any proceeding for the appointment of a receiver, liquidator, assignee, custodian, trustee, sequestrator (or similar official) for Maker or for any substantial part of its property, or (C) any decree or order is entered declaring Maker or any of its subsidiaries insolvent or bankrupt or ordering the winding-up or liquidation of the affairs of Maker or any of its subsidiaries.

 

7. Remedies.

 

(a) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 6(a) hereof, Payee may, by written notice to Maker, declare this Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the unpaid principal amount of this Note, and all other amounts payable hereunder, shall become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

2


 

(b) Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default specified in Section 6(b) or 6(c), the unpaid principal balance of this Note, and all other sums payable with regard to this Note, shall automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases without any action on the part of Payee and without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind, all of which are hereby expressly waived, anything contained herein or in the documents evidencing the same to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

8. Waivers.

9. Unconditional Liability. Maker hereby waives all notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of the payment of this Note, and agrees that its liability shall be unconditional, without regard to the liability of any other party, and shall not be affected in any manner by any indulgence, extension of time, renewal, waiver or modification granted or consented to by Payee, and consents to any and all extensions of time, renewals, waivers, or modifications that may be granted by Payee with respect to the payment or other provisions of this Note, and agrees that additional makers, endorsers, guarantors, or sureties may become parties hereto without notice to Maker or affecting Maker’s liability hereunder.
