Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

 

SKYX Platforms Corp. (the “Company”) reduced a payment of $1.4 million due to GE Trademark Licensing, Inc. (“GE-TL”) by $400,000, in exchange for a 3-year no interest bearing convertible promissory note of $1.0 million (the “Note”) to GE-TL, with a conversion price of $1.07 per share. The Note was signed on April 11, 2024, and matures on April 11, 2027.

 

On December 8, 2023, the Company filed a Current Report on Form 8-K disclosing, among other things, that the Company had entered into a letter agreement (the “Letter Agreement”) relating to royalty payments due to GE -TL, in connection with the sunsetting of the License Trademark Agreement previously entered into with GE-TL. Pursuant to the Letter Agreement, the Company also agreed to issue a convertible note payable to GE-TL, with the note terms and conditions to be mutually agreed upon by both parties. On April 11, 2024, the Company entered into an amendment to the Letter Agreement, which extended the deadline for the Company to issue the convertible note to GE-TL to May 1, 2024, and issued the Note, reflecting a reduction in payments due.

 

The Note does not bear interest and the principal amount of the Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at any time at the option of the holder. The Company may prepay the entire then-outstanding principal amount of a Note at any time, plus a prepayment premium; if the Company exercises such right, the Note holder may instead elect to convert the Note into shares of common stock. The Note also provides for certain piggyback registration rights.

 

The above descriptions of the amendment to the Letter Agreement and the Note do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of the amendment and the Note, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 4.1 and Exhibit 10.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K (this “Current Report”), and are incorporated herein by reference.

 

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant

 

The disclosure set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report is incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03.

 

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities

 

The disclosure set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report is incorporated by reference in this Item 3.02. The issuance of the Note was deemed to be exempt from registration pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, including Regulation D and Rule 506 promulgated thereunder, as a transaction by the Company not involving a public offering.

CONVERTIBLE PROMISSORY NOTE

 

Dated as of: April 11, 2024 (the “Issuance Date”)

 

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, SKYX PLATFORMS CORP. (the “Company”), a Florida corporation, hereby promises to pay to the order of GE TRADEMARK LICENSING, INC., or its permitted assigns (“Holder”), of this Convertible Promissory Note (the “Note”), in lawful money of the United States, the principal amount of One Million Dollars (USD $1,000,000) (the “Principal Amount”). Capitalized terms used, but not otherwise defined, in this Note have the meanings ascribed to them in the letter agreement, dated as of November 28, 2023 (the “Letter Agreement”), between the Holder and SQL Lighting & Fans, LLC, as amended, modified or supplemented from time to time in accordance with its terms.

 

1. Principal. Unless sooner converted in accordance with Section 2, the principal on this Note is due and payable on the three (3) year anniversary of the Issuance Date (the “Maturity Date”). Upon payment in full of all principal payable hereunder, or conversion of this Note pursuant to the terms hereof, this Note shall be surrendered to the Company for cancellation.

 

2. Conversion.

 

(a) This Note shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock (“Common Stock”) in the sole and absolute discretion of the Holder prior to or on the Maturity Date and shall convert into that number of Common Stock as shall equal (i) the principal amount of the Note divided by (ii) the per share price of the Common Stock at the market open on the day of execution of this Note.

 

(b) The Holder shall effect conversions of this Note by delivering to the Company the form of Notice of Conversion attached hereto. Upon conversion of the Note, the outstanding principal shall be converted without any further action by the Holder and whether or not the Note is surrendered to the Company or its transfer agent. The Company shall not be obligated to issue certificates evidencing the shares of the securities issuable upon such conversion unless such Note is either delivered to the Company or its transfer agent, or the Holder notifies the Company or its transfer agent that such Note has been lost, stolen or destroyed and executes an agreement reasonably satisfactory to the Company to indemnify the Company from any loss incurred by it in connection with such Note. The Company shall, as soon as practicable, but in any event within ten (10) days after such delivery, or such agreement and indemnification, issue and deliver at such office to such Holder of such Note, a certificate or certificates (or electronic book-entry statements) for the securities to which the Holder shall be entitled. Such conversion shall be deemed to have been made immediately prior to the close of business on the date of closing of the transaction causing conversion. The person or persons entitled to receive securities issuable upon such conversion shall be treated for all purposes as the record Holder or Holders of such securities on such date.

 

 

 

(c) If at any time the number of shares of equity securities issuable upon conversion of this Note shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of this Note, the Company will use all commercially reasonable efforts to effect such corporate action as may, in the opinion of its counsel, be necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of equity securities issuable upon conversion of this Note as shall be sufficient for such purpose.

 

3. Consolidation; Merger; Reclassification.

 

(a) In case of any consolidation with or merger of the Company with or into another entity (other than a merger or consolidation in which the Company is the surviving or continuing corporation), or in case of any sale, lease, or conveyance to another entity of substantially all of the property and assets of any nature of the Company, such successor, leasing, or purchasing entity, as the case may be, shall (i) execute with Holder an agreement providing that Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon conversion of this Note solely the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities, property, cash, or any combination thereof receivable upon such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, or conveyance by a Holder of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such consolidation, merger, sale, lease, or conveyance and/or (ii) make effective provision in its certificate of incorporation or otherwise, if necessary, to effect such agreement.

 

(b) In case of any reclassification or change of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note in accordance with this Section 3 hereof (other than a change in par value or from no par value to a specified par value), or in case of any consolidation or merger of another entity into the Company in which the Company is the continuing corporation and in which there is a reclassification or change (including a change to the right to receive cash or other property) of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon the conversion of this Note in accordance with this Section 3 (other than a change in par value, or from no par value to a specified par value), Holder shall have the right thereafter to receive upon conversion of this Note solely the kind and amount of shares of stock and other securities, property, cash, or any combination thereof receivable upon such reclassification, change, consolidation, or merger of the number of shares of Common Stock into which this Note might have been converted immediately prior to such reclassification, change, consolidation, or merger.

 

(c) The above provisions of this Section 3 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications and changes of shares of Common Stock and to successive consolidations, mergers, sales, leases, or conveyances.

 

4. Default. This Note shall, at the option of the Holder, become immediately due and payable upon written notice from the Holder to the Company upon the occurrence of any of the following events (each an “Event of Default”), except that in the case of an Event of Default described in Section 4(d), 4(e), or 4(f), such acceleration shall (i) be automatic, (ii) constitute Company exercising its Prepayment Right, pursuant to Section 8 of this Note without Holder electing to convert any portion of this Note to Common Stock, and (iii) not require any notice:

 

2

 

(a) failure to make any payment of principal when due, which failure has continued for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after written notice thereof shall have been received by the Company from the Holder hereof;

 

(b) failure to make any Restructure Payments (as defined in the Letter Agreement) when due, which failure has continued for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after written notice thereof shall have been received by the Company from the Holder hereof;

 

(c) default in the payment or performance of any material obligation or covenant of the Company contained in this Note, and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) calendar days after written notice of such default shall have been received by the Company from the Holder hereof;

 

(d) if the Company shall make a general assignment for the benefit of creditors or shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they become due;

 

(e) if the Company shall file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy, or shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or shall file any petition or answer seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution, or similar relief under the present or any future federal bankruptcy code or other applicable federal, state or similar statute, law or regulation, or shall seek or consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of the Company or of all or any substantial part of its properties; or,

 

(f) if within sixty (60) days after the commencement of any proceedings against the Company seeking any reorganization, arrangement, composition, readjustment, liquidation, dissolution or similar relief under the present or any future federal bankruptcy code or other applicable federal, state or similar statute, law or regulation, such proceeding shall not have been dismissed or if, within sixty (60) days after the appointment, without the consent or acquiescence of the Company, of any trustee, receiver or liquidator of the Company or of all or any substantial part of its properties, such appointment shall not have been vacated.

 

5. Liabilities as Stockholder. In the absence of conversion of this Note, no provisions of this Note, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall cause the Holder to be deemed a stockholder of the Company for any purpose solely based on this Note.

 

6. Seniority. Holder agrees that the payment obligations of the Company hereunder shall be subordinated to (i) all other debt obligations of the Company in existence as of the Issuance Date that are expressly senior to this Note and (ii) all indebtedness of up to one hundred million US dollars (USD $100,000,000) from banks, commercial creditors or institutional lenders incurred or assumed by the Company after the Issuance Date; provided, however, that the Company’s payment obligations under this Note shall rank senior in right of payment to any other indebtedness of the Company not within subsection (ii) above and that is incurred after the Issuance Date. In the event the Company incurs indebtedness in excess of one hundred million US dollars (USD $100,000,000) on or after the Issuance Date, the Company shall exercise its Prepayment Right pursuant to Section 8.

 

7. Transfer, Division and Combination.

 

(a) Prior to the Maturity Date and subject to compliance with applicable laws, including transfer restrictions imposed by applicable securities laws, this Note and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, at the office or agency of the Company by the Holder in person or by duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of this Note together with the Assignment Form attached hereto properly endorsed. The transferee shall sign an investment letter in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Company.

 

3

 

(b) Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 7(a), this Note and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Note at the principal office of the Company, together with a written assignment of this Note substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Note or Notes in the name of the assignee or assignees and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and, if applicable, shall issue to the assignor a new Note evidencing the portion of this Note not so assigned, and this Note shall promptly be cancelled. The Company shall prepare, issue and deliver at its own expense (other than transfer taxes) the new Note or Notes. The Company agrees to maintain, at its aforesaid office, books for the registration and the registration of transfer of the Notes.

 

(c) The Company may require, as a condition of allowing such transfer, (i) that the Holder or transferee of this Note, as the case may be, furnish to the Company a written opinion of counsel (which opinion shall be in form, substance and scope customary for opinions of counsel in comparable transactions) to the effect that such transfer may be made, if applicable, without registration under the Securities Act and under applicable state securities or blue sky laws, (ii) that the holder or transferee execute and deliver to the Company an investment letter in form and substance acceptable to the Company and (iii) that the transferee be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) promulgated under the Securities Act or a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A(a) under the Securities Act.

 

8. Prepayment. In its sole discretion and upon giving prior written notice, the Company will have the right to prepay the entire then-outstanding principal amount of the Note at any time (the “Prepayment Right”). If the Company exercises its Prepayment Right, the Holder shall have five (5) business days to convert this Note in accordance with Section 2. Upon the Company’s exercise of the Prepayment Right, in addition to the then-outstanding Principal Amount of the Note that is payable if this Note is not converted by the Holder, it shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash equal to twenty percent (20%) of the then-outstanding Principal Amount.

 

9. Piggyback Registration Rights. Until such earlier time as this Note has been repaid in cash or the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Note (the “Shares”) may be resold pursuant to an exemption from registration under Rule 144 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, if the Company is required or proposes to register any shares of its common stock for resale under the Securities Act, and the form of registration statement to be used may be used for registration of the Shares, the Company will include the Shares in such registration (and in all related registrations or qualifications under blue sky laws made by the Company). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the timing of filing and seeking effectiveness of any such registration shall be in the Company’s sole discretion.

 

10. Amendments and Waivers. Subject to this Section 10, no term of this Note may be amended without the written consent of the Company and the Holder. The observance of any term of this Note may be waived (either generally or in a particular instance and either retroactively or prospectively), including any waiver that has the effect of extending the Maturity Date, only with the written consent of the Company and the Holder.

 

11. Governing Law. This Note is being delivered in and shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to the conflicts of laws provisions thereof.

 

4

 

12. Attorneys’ Fees. If the indebtedness represented by this Note or any part thereof is collected in bankruptcy, receivership or other judicial proceedings or if this Note is placed in the hands of attorneys for collection after default, the Company agrees to pay, in addition to the principal payable hereunder, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs incurred by Holder.

 

13. Notices. Unless otherwise provided, any notice required or permitted under this Note shall be given in writing and shall be deemed effectively given (i) at the time of personal delivery, if delivery is in person; (ii) one (1) business day after deposit with an express overnight courier for United States deliveries, or three (3) business days after such deposit for deliveries outside of the United States, with proof of delivery from the courier requested; or (iii) three (3) business days after deposit in the United States mail by certified mail (return receipt requested) for United States deliveries, in each case addressed as follows, or at such other address as any party or the Company may designate by giving ten (10) days advance written notice to all other parties:

RE: Amendment of Letter Agreement Dated November 28, 2023

 

Dear John,

 

This letter (this “Amendment”) serves to amend the letter agreement with the subject “Repayment Plan Under Trademark License Agreement between SQL Lighting & Fans, LLC and GE Trademark Licensing, Inc.” dated November 28, 2023 (the “Letter Agreement”), between GE Trademark Licensing, Inc. (“GE”), SKYX Platforms Corp. (“SKYX”), and SQL Lighting & Fans, LLC (“SQL”), to reflect additional discussions and mutual agreements reached by the parties. Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings given to them in the Letter Agreement.

 

The Letter Agreement outlines the terms upon which SKYX may issue a Note to GE, with the condition that if the Note was not issued to GE by December 28, 2023 (the “Note Deadline”), then SKYX will make the Additional Payments outlined therein.

 

The parties were unable to reach terms on the form of Note by the Note Deadline. The parties continued negotiations past the Note Deadline, and hereby agree to extend the Note Deadline to May 1, 2024 (the “Amended Note Deadline”). As a consequence, SKYX shall have no obligation to make the Additional Payments unless it fails to issue the Note for any reason or no reason by the Amended Note Deadline.

 

GE will deliver a signed copy of SKYX’s accredited investor questionnaire prior to delivery of the Note. GE understands and acknowledges that SKYX’s commitment to issue the Note is subject to the condition that GE is and will be an “accredited investor” as defined in Rule 501(a) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”). GE understands and acknowledges that the Note and any underlying shares of common stock have not been registered under the Act, or the securities laws of any state or any other jurisdiction, and may not be offered or sold unless subsequently registered under the Act and any other securities laws, or unless exemptions from the registration or other requirements thereof are available.

 

Except as expressly provided in this Amendment, all of the terms and provisions of the Letter Agreement are and will remain in full force and effect and are hereby ratified and confirmed by the parties. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts and by electronic transmission.

 

 

 

Please reach out to me should you have any questions regarding the above items. If this amendment is acceptable to SQL and SKYX, please provide your written approval by signing below and sending via return email.

 

Best regards,
