Best Efforts Offering of

 

Up to 300,000,000 Common Shares $0.10 per Common Share

 

 

 

Damon Inc., a British Columbia corporation referred to herein as the “Company”, “Damon”, “we”, “us” or “our” and similar terms, is conducting a best-efforts offering of up to 300,000,000 common shares in the capital of the Company (each, a “Common Share” and, collectively, the “Common Shares”) at a price of $0.10 per Common Share (the “Offering”). The minimum amount you may invest in this Offering is $1,000.00 for 10,000 Common Shares, and any additional purchases must be made in increments of at least $1,000.00. However, we reserve the right to waive this minimum in our sole discretion. See “Plan of Distribution” on page 148 herein for more information.

 

Our Common Shares are traded on the OTCID Basic Market under the symbol “DMNIF”, however, as a result of our recent reverse stock split effective on July 3, 2025, our current trading symbol is “DMNID” until August 1, 2025, when our symbol will revert to “DMNIF”. On July 21, 2025, the last reported sale price of our Common Shares was $0.09 per Common Share.

 

We are offering our Common Shares on a best-efforts basis, meaning there is no guarantee that we will receive any proceeds from the sale of our Common Shares in this Offering. We have engaged DealMaker Securities LLC (the “Broker”), a registered broker-dealer and member of the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”), and its affiliates to provide broker-dealer compliance services, technology, and marketing support in connection with this Offering. See “Plan of Distribution” herein for more information.

 

We estimate that this Offering will commence within two days of SEC qualification; this Offering will terminate at the earliest of (a) the date on which the maximum Offering has been sold, (b) one year from the date of SEC qualification or (c) the date on which this Offering is earlier terminated by us, in our sole discretion. See “Plan of Distribution.

 

 

 

 

To participate in this Offering, you must complete a subscription agreement available through our offering page at www.invest.damon.com, and deposit your investment funds in our non-interest-bearing escrow account with Enterprise Bank & Trust, who we refer to as the Escrow Agent. If we reject your subscription, in whole or in part, or if we accept it but do not conduct a closing of this Offering thereafter due to the termination of the Offering for any reason, the Escrow Agent will promptly return your investment funds without interest or deduction, in accordance with Rule 10b-9 under the United States Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). Until a closing of the Offering occurs, your subscription agreement will remain revocable and your investment funds will be refundable. Once a closing has occurred, your subscription will become irrevocable, your funds will no longer be refundable and your Common Shares will be issued. This Offering is continuous and ongoing within the meaning of Rule 251(d)(3) of Regulation A, and closings, each of which we refer to as a “Closing”, and collectively, the “Closings”, may occur from time to time throughout the term of the Offering to maximize economic efficiency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we intend to conduct a Closing at least every four to eight weeks following the first Closing.

(1)The Common Shares are being offered in the Offering on a “best efforts” basis through the Broker, with which the Company is a party to a Broker-Dealer Agreement (“Broker-Dealer Agreement”). For performing broker-dealer pre-offering analysis, pre-offering consulting and advisory, compliance and consulting services in connection with this Offering, the Broker will receive the Brokerage Commission. There is other compensation associated with the Broker and its affiliates as well described further in “Plan of Distribution” herein, but in summary are one-time and monthly accountable expenses and fees. When the Company signed the Broker-Dealer Agreement, the Broker was to receive one-time payment of $27,500 advance (the “Broker Advance”) against accountable expenses anticipated to be incurred in the Offering (refundable to the Company to the extent of expenses not actually incurred by the Broker), and once the Cash Offering commences receive a four and one half percent (4.5%) commission on all cash proceeds collected by the Company. The proceeds of the Offering may be deposited directly into the Company’s operating account for its immediate use, with no obligation to refund subscriptions. We may be required to indemnify the Broker and possibly other parties with respect to disclosures made in this Offering Circular. The calculated maximum Offering compensation to Broker and affiliates is $1,850,500.

(3)At the time of each subscription, the investor will be required to pay the Company a 2.0% investor processing fee (the “Investor Processing Fee”) to help offset certain transaction expenses for which the Company is required to pay or reimburse affiliates of the Broker. In the table above, the figures for “Price Per Common Share Plus Investor Processing Fee” and the “Total Maximum (with Transaction Fees)” assume all investors in the aggregate, in an Offering that is fully subscribed, pay the Company a total of $600,000 in Investor Processing Fees. The Broker will receive a cash commission on Investor Processing Fees. See “Plan of Distribution” for more details.

 

(4)This amount consists of the amounts paid to the Broker described above and compensation to its affiliates. Compensation to the Broker affiliates totals $446,000. See “Plan of Distribution” for details regarding the compensation payable to the Broker and its affiliates in connection with this Offering.

Factors that may cause actual results to differ materially from current expectations include, among other things, those listed under the heading “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in this Offering Circular. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties occur, or if our underlying assumptions prove to be incorrect, actual events or results may vary significantly from those implied or projected by the forward-looking statements.

Offering Circular Summary

 

Corporate History

 

Spin-Off

 

We were incorporated under the laws of British Columbia, Canada, on October 17, 2023. Through our wholly-owned subsidiary, Grafiti Limited, which was transferred to us on December 26, 2023 by our former parent company, XTI Aerospace Inc. (“Parent”), we operate a business in the United Kingdom (“UK”) providing a comprehensive set of data analytics and statistical visualization solutions for engineers and scientists. On December 27, 2023 (the “record date”), we were spun off by the Parent, by means of a transfer of all of our then outstanding common shares held by the Parent (the “spinoff shares”), to the Grafiti Holding Inc. Liquidating Trust (the “Trust”), to be held for the benefit of holders of the Parent’s common stock, preferred stock and those outstanding warrants that were contractually entitled to participate in the distribution (collectively, the “participating securityholders”), on a pro rata basis as of the record date. As described in further detail in our registration statement on Form 10-12B filed in connection with the spinoff and declared effective by the SEC on November 12, 2024 (the “Form 10”), for U.S. federal income tax purposes we believe that the transfer by the Parent of the spinoff shares to the trust was treated as a taxable distribution by the Parent to the participating securityholders of the spinoff shares on the record date and the subsequent transfer by the participating securityholders of the spinoff shares to the Trust on the same date. The Trust held the spinoff shares until the effective date of the Form 10-12B registration statement on November 12, 2024, promptly following which the Trust delivered the spinoff shares to the participating securityholders, as beneficiaries of the Trust, pro rata in accordance with their ownership of shares or underlying shares of the Parent’s common stock as of the record date.

 

The Business Combination and Related Transactions

 

On November 13, 2024, we completed a business combination transaction with Damon Motors Inc. (“Damon Motors”), a designer and developer in electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products that empower the personal mobility sector through innovation, data intelligence and strategic partnerships, resulting in Damon Motors becoming our wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Business Combination”). Upon completion of the Business Combination with Damon Motors, we changed our corporate name to “Damon Inc.”. For further information about these transactions, please refer to the current report on Form 8-K filed by the us with the SEC on November 18, 2024.

 

The rights of holders of our Common Shares are governed by our Charter, our Articles and the Business Corporations Act (British Columbia) (“BCBCA”). For more details, please refer to the section titled “Description of Securities” herein. The Company’s Common Shares are traded on the OTCID Basic Market under the symbol “DMNIF”, however, as a result of our recent reverse stock split effective on July 3, 2025, our current trading symbol is “DMNID” until August 1, 2025, when our symbol will revert to “DMNIF”.

 

The Business Combination was accounted for using the acquisition method (as a reverse acquisition), with goodwill and other identifiable intangible assets recorded in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, as applicable. Under this method of accounting, Grafiti Holding is treated as the “acquired” company for financial reporting purposes. Damon Motors was determined to be the accounting acquirer because, after the Business Combination, Damon Motors will control the Board of Directors and management of the combined company, and the preexisting shareholders of Damon Motors have majority voting rights of the combined company. For accounting purposes, the acquirer is the entity that has obtained control of another entity and, thus, consummated a business combination.

Business Overview

 

Our Personal Mobility Products Development Business Through Damon Motors

 

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary Damon Motors, is developing electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products that seek to empower the personal mobility industry through innovation, data intelligence and strategic partnerships. Damon Motors is developing technology and investing in the capabilities to lead an integrated personal mobility ecosystem from individual travels to last mile delivery. With decades of combined management and engineering experience across the team’s careers, and a commitment to low carbon personal mobility solutions, Damon Motors is seeking to introduce existing enthusiasts to high-performance electric products while bringing new riders to the motorcycle community with first of its kind advances in zero emissions motorcycle performance, safety, connectivity and artificial intelligence (“AI”).

 

Founded in 2017, Damon Motors started reimagining the future of motorcycling by means of advanced safety design, electric vehicle powertrain technology and user experience. In 2019, Damon Motors took its first alpha prototype motorcycles and safety systems into the field to test the concept. In 2021, Damon Motors expanded its operations and research and development expertise to accelerate the engineering and development of its HyperDrive platform drive unit and the HyperSport motorcycle. Through core technology advancements, Damon Motors electric motorcycles are in prototype phase of product validation.

 

Damon Motors’ electric vehicles are developed with a set of proprietary design principles that elevate the brand, deliver differentiated riding experiences and bring emotion to electric propulsion. The initial product portfolio of motorcycle models will be built upon and utilize a single powertrain platform called HyperDrive™. As a patented, monocoque-constructed battery-chassis, HyperDrive houses a proprietary 150 kW 6-phase liquid cooled IPM motor-gearbox and proprietary electronics. This platform approach establishes a capital-efficient path to grow the product line to meet a wide range of future segments and price points, while also supporting a wide range of future motorcycle models and power sizes that share as much as 85 percent common parts. By using the frame of the battery as the motorcycle’s chassis, HyperDrive also achieves valuable weight and cost reduction advantages. With 150 kW of power at its disposal, HyperDrive has been specifically designed to compete with the performance of market leaders in the high-performance motorcycle market, whether internal combustion or electric. Thanks to the energy modularity designed into it, HyperDrive-based motorcycles can be detuned in power, energy and thus cost to support 500 – 1500cc power equivalent classes of motorcycles in both the North American and European markets, with price points ranging from $20,000 - $80,000.

 

The HyperDrive platform is contrasted by the smaller, less powerful and lower cost HyperLite platform, currently in its early design phase. HyperLite will be developed using a very similar design architecture as HyperDrive, enabling the production of a range of light weight, low to medium cost motorcycles and scooters with milder levels of horsepower that are more common in overseas and developing markets. With these two platforms, paired with Damon Motors’ three patented cornerstone technologies, CoPilot™, Shift™ and its AI-enabled cloud platform, Damon Motors’ long-term objective is to build a premium, high-tech, electric motorcycle company that rivals the largest incumbents in both profit and annual volume, by providing a technologically enhanced riding experience that is not currently available from other manufacturers.

 

CoPilot provides a novel rider assistance and warning system integrated into the motorcycle. Shift allows the handlebars and foot pegs to mechatronically adjust on the fly, addressing issues of ergonomic comfort and allowing users to select different riding positions for changing conditions such as a lower, more aerodynamic position for highway use or a more upright position for urban use. Its AI-enabled cloud will collect environmental and situational data that, paired with over-the-air software updates, can drive a continual loop of collision warning improvements, with an aim to further reduce accident probability over time.

The commercial production of Damon Motors’ motorcycles is expected to commence after passing various internal and external tests and undergoing a self-certification process required for US-bound vehicle homologation. These tests include: the completion of Damon Motors’ ride quality and long-term durability testing; completion of FCC Title 47 certification for the onboard charger; completion of UN 38.3 battery testing; completion of Damon Motors’ internal battery testing; extreme temperature operation verification; brake testing per FMVSS; and an internal and external review of FMVSS compliance with Damon Motors engineering subcontractor TUV of Germany.

 

Our SAVES Distribution Business Through Grafiti Limited

 

The Company, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Grafiti Limited, distributes in the UK and certain other European countries data analytics and visualization software products referred to as “SAVES” primarily for scientists and engineers. Grafiti Limited products can be downloaded to a user’s desktop. These products help scientific research in the health and life sciences domain in the discovery of new drugs, in the study of the efficacy of established drugs and therapies, and in epidemic propagation research, among other applications. Engineers use our products for a multitude of applications which include, but are not limited to, conducting surface modelling analysis and curve fitting in order to design new engineering processes, studying signal attenuation and propagation in radio engineering. Potential automobile and motorcycle applications could include surface panel design for aerodynamics, aesthetic symmetry, and calculated asymmetry among others. We believe the Grafiti Limited regression analysis product could also be used for predicting vehicle sharing demand and pricing trends in various markets based on a wide range of variables.

 

Grafiti Limited’s strategy is to build a broader, long term customer base by increasing its sales of Grafiti Limited’s product offerings which will include cloud and Macintosh compatible data analytics and statistical visualization software products.

Grafiti Limited was formed by the Parent on May 13, 2020, as a distribution arm for its SAVES products in the UK market and part of the European market.

 

Our Corporate Strategy

 

We are pursuing a corporate strategy focused on developing a business offering of end-to-end solutions ranging from personal mobility products to the collection of data to delivering insights from that data to our customers with a focus on safety and data intelligence and engineering services. In connection with such strategy and to facilitate our long-term growth, we continue to evaluate various strategic transactions, including acquisitions of companies with personal mobility products, technologies and intellectual property (“IP”) that complement those goals by adding technology, differentiation, customers and/or revenue. We are primarily looking for accretive acquisitions that have business value and operational synergies, but will be opportunistic for other strategic and/or attractive transactions. We believe these complementary technologies will add value to the Company and allow us to provide a comprehensive integrated personal mobility ecosystem to our customers. In addition, we may seek to expand our capabilities around safety, security, artificial intelligence, augmented reality and virtual reality or other high growth sectors. Candidates with proven technologies and personal mobility products that complement our overall strategy may come from anywhere in the world, as long as there are strategic and financial reasons to make the acquisition. We are also exploring opportunities that will supplement our revenue growth. We are primarily looking for accretive acquisitions that have business value and operational synergies, yet also opportunistic for other strategic and/or attractive transactions that we believe may increase overall shareholder value, which may include, but not be limited to, other alternative investment opportunities, such as minority investments and joint ventures. If we make any acquisitions in the future, we expect that we may pay for such acquisitions using our equity securities and/or cash and debt financings in combinations appropriate for each acquisition.

 

Summary Risk Factors

 

Our business is subject to numerous risks and uncertainties, including those highlighted in the section titled “Risk Factors” herein, that represent challenges that we face in connection with the successful implementation of our strategy and the growth of our business. In particular, the following risks, among others, may offset our competitive strengths or have a negative effect on our business strategy, which could cause a decline in the price of our common shares and result in a loss of all or a portion of your investment:

 

we have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this Offering and we may not use them effectively;

 

- 3 -

 

 

our share price is volatile and there is a limited market for our Common Share;

 

the price of Common Shares offered in the Offering may not reflect the actual or market value of our Common Shares;

 

the Company is an early-stage company with a limited operating history and a history of losses and expects to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future;

if securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or publish negative reports about our business, our share price and trading volume could decline;

 

we are eligible to be treated as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Common Shares less attractive to investors;

 

as a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain U.S. securities laws and regulations that apply to U.S. domestic issuers, which may afford less protection to shareholders;

 

we may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional costs and expenses;

 

we do not intend to pay cash dividends to our shareholders;

 

reporting company compliance may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors;

 

our Common Shares have recently been delisted from Nasdaq and are currently traded on the OTCID Basic Market, which may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our Common Shares and limit our ability to raise additional capital;

 

sales of a substantial number of our securities in the public market by us and/or by our existing securityholders could cause the price of our Common Shares to fall;

 

our stock price has been volatile, and the issuance of Common Shares upon the exercise of Series A Warrants has resulted in significant dilution. Additional issuances under our current financing arrangements with Streeterville or other new issuances could further depress the market price of our Common Shares;

the Company is dependent on its suppliers, some of which are single or limited source suppliers, and the inability of these suppliers to deliver necessary components of the Company’s vehicles at prices and volumes acceptable to the Company would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects;

 

the Company depends on certain key personnel, and its success will depend on its continued ability to retain and attract qualified management, technical and vehicle engineering personnel;

the Company’s patent applications may not result in issued patents, which may have a material adverse effect on its ability to prevent others from interfering with the commercialization of the Company’s products;

 

the Company may need to defend itself against patent or trademark infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and would cause the Company to incur substantial costs;

 

our international business exposes us to geo-political and economic factors, trade tariffs, legal and regulatory requirements, fluctuations in exchange rates, public health and other risks associated with doing business in foreign countries;

 

the lack of availability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives or government policies which are favorable for electric vehicles and Canadian produced vehicles could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects;

Settlement Agreement with Mark Peikin

 

As previously disclosed in the current report on Form 8-K as filed with the SEC on November 18, 2024, Damon Motors had entered into an amendment to its engagement agreement with Joseph Gunnar & Co., LLC (“Joseph Gunnar”) and Mark Peikin (“Peikin”) (the “Amendment”). On March 24, 2025, the Company and Damon Motors entered into a new agreement with Peikin (the “Settlement Agreement”), pursuant to which the parties agreed to amend the payment terms with respect to the payment amount set forth in the Amendment. In connection with the Settlement Agreement, Peikin agreed to voluntarily surrender to the Company for cancellation the 1,255,230 Common Shares previously issued to him pursuant to the Amendment (the “Issued Shares”), and waive, on behalf of himself and Joseph Gunnar, any default by the Company or Damon Motors to register the Issued Shares timely as required by the Amendment.

 

Under the Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to deliver to Peikin an aggregate amount of $2,515,000 (the “Amended Payment Amount”), of which $1,515,000 was paid in cash on March 24, 2025, and $1,000,000 (the “Deferred Amount”), which may be paid, at the option of the Company, by cash or in Common Shares no later than May 21, 2025, the first trading day following the expiration of the 60-day standstill period set forth in the Underwriting Agreement, dated March 20, 2025, between the Company and Maxim Group LLC. The number of Common Shares to be issued shall be calculated by dividing the Deferred Amount by the lower of (i) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price as of the issuance date; or (ii) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price of the common stock for the five trading days immediately preceding and including the issuance date. The Company also agreed to file a resale registration statement covering the Common Shares no later than the first trading day following their issuance. In addition, the Company agreed that, without Peikin’s prior written consent and subject to customary exceptions, it will not engage in, or publicly announce, any registered offering of equity securities for capital-raising purposes, or any “at-the-market,” continuous equity, or variable rate transactions, during the period from the issuance date of the Common Shares until ten business days after the registered Common Shares are delivered following the effectiveness of the resale registration statement.

 

On June 9, 2025, the Company and Damon Motors entered into an amended settlement agreement (the “Amended Settlement Agreement”) to fully and finally resolve all outstanding amounts owed to Mr. Peikin pursuant to the Settlement Agreement (the “Outstanding Settlement Obligations”). Under the Amended Settlement Agreement, the Company agreed to make a one-time cash payment of $350,000 to Mr. Peikin within one business day following execution of the Amended Settlement Agreement, and Mr. Peikin agreed to waive and release all claims arising from the Outstanding Settlement Obligations. Such amount has been paid to Mr. Peikin in full and final satisfaction of the Outstanding Settlement Obligations.

 

December 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement with Streeterville

 

On December 20, 2024, we entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement”) with Streeterville Capital, LLC (“Streeterville”), as amended by the Amendment No. 1 to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated February 27, 2025. Under the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement the Company agreed to issue and sell to Streeterville one or more pre-paid purchases at an aggregate purchase price of up to $10,000,000 (the “Total Commitment Amount”) for the purchase of the Company’s Common Shares. As consideration for Streeterville’s commitment, the Company also agreed to issue 343,053 Common Shares to Streeterville (the “Commitment Shares”).

 

Each pre-paid purchase includes an original issue discount of 7% and accrues interest at an annual rate of 8%. For the initial pre-paid purchase, which closed on December 20, 2024 (the “Initial Closing Date”), Streeterville paid $2,000,000, creating in an initial principal balance of $2,140,000.

 

Pursuant to the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement and a registration rights agreement entered into on the same date, the Company agreed to file a registration statement on Form S-1 under the Securities Act, to register the resale of 18,000,000 Common Shares, including the Commitment Shares and Common Shares issuable pursuant to the pre-paid purchases (the “Registration Statement”). If the Registration Statement was declared effective within 90 days of the Initial Closing Date and no default has occurred, and if requested by the Company, Streeterville would fund $1,000,000 for a second pre-paid purchase. The Registration Statement was declared effective on February 6, 2025.

 

Within a committed two-year period, and subject to certain specified conditions, the Company may request the issuance of additional pre-paid purchases to Streeterville, with each purchase amount being no less than $250,000, provided that the total outstanding balance of all pre-paid purchases does not exceed $3,000,000.

 

- 7 -

 

 

The proceeds from the pre-paid purchases were and are expected to be used for working capital and other corporate purposes. However, $100,000 from the initial pre-paid purchase funding, and 15% of the funding from subsequent pre-paid purchases, shall be used to repay the indebtedness under the secured promissory note issued to Streeterville in June 2024 with an original principal amount of $6,470,000.

 

Following the funding of each pre-paid purchase, Streeterville has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase from the Company its Common Shares not exceeding (i) the outstanding balance of the funded amount and (ii) 9.99% beneficial ownership of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares. The purchase price of the Common Shares will be the lower of (i) $1.50 or (ii) 90% of the Company’s lowest daily volume weighted average trading price (the “VWAP”) during the ten consecutive trading days immediately prior to the purchase notice date, but not less than the floor price, which is equal to 20% of the “Minimum Price” as defined under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) prior to the applicable closing. Under the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed that, if applicable, it will seek shareholder approval for the issuance of common shares up to the Total Commitment Amount (the “Required Shareholder Approval”), and until such approval is obtained, the Company will not request additional pre-paid purchases that may cause the total amount of Common Shares issuable to exceed the limits set under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) (the “Exchange Cap”). However, since the Company is no longer listed on Nasdaq, the Required Shareholder Approval and Exchange Cap no longer apply.

 

The outstanding pre-paid purchases, unless reduced by the Company’s sale of Common Shares to Streeterville as described, will remain outstanding and may be repaid in cash at the Company’s option. There is no maturity date for the outstanding balance of the pre-paid purchases. Additionally, if certain triggering events occur, including (a) the VWAP of the Company’s Common Shares falling below the floor price for at least five trading days within a seven-trading-day period, or (b) the Company having issued 75% of the shares under the Exchange Cap if an Exchange Cap applies, the Company must make monthly cash repayments of $350,000 in principal plus any accrued unpaid interest until the outstanding balance is fully repaid or the triggering event conditions are resolved. In an event of default as specified in the pre-paid purchase, Streeterville may accelerate repayment, requiring the outstanding balance to become immediately due, with a 10% increase to the principal and interest accruing at a rate of 18% per annum.

 

Under the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has received an aggregate of $4,400,000 from Streeterville out of the Total Commitment Amount of $10,000,000, resulting in an outstanding principal balance of $4,708,000, excluding any accrued interest and prior to any purchase of common shares discussed below. Of the $4,400,000 received, a total of $460,000 has been used to repay the indebtedness under the secured promissory note issued to Streeterville in June 2024 with an original principal amount of $6,470,000.

 

As of July 21, 2025, Streeterville has purchased, and the Company has issued, a total of 65,068 (8,133,614 pre-reverse split) Common Shares to satisfy pre-paid purchases made through this date, based on the pricing formula described in the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, and the outstanding principal balance has been reduced to $3,158,000, with an additional $147,370 in accrued interest.

 

Streeterville June 2024 Note and Second Amendment to Note

 

On June 26, 2024, Grafiti Holding and Streeterville entered into a note purchase agreement (the “Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which Grafiti Holding sold a secured promissory note (the “Note”) in an aggregate original principal amount of $6,470,000 in a private offering in reliance on exemptions from registration under applicable securities laws. The Note and the Note Purchase Agreement were amended by Amendment No. 1 as of October 31, 2024.

 

The Note carries an original issue discount of $1,450,000 and $20,000 of issuance costs to cover legal, accounting, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs. On the same day, Streeterville paid the purchase price of $5,000,000 as follows: (a) $1,150,000 to Grafiti Holding; (b) $350,000 to Damon Motors as a loan from Grafiti Holding to Damon Motors; and (c) $3,500,000 into escrow, which was distributed to Grafiti Holding upon satisfaction of certain conditions including the consummation of the Business Combination and the listing of the post-closing company’s Common Shares on Nasdaq. Additionally, starting on the earlier of 13 months after the closing of the Business Combination or January 1, 2026, Streeterville may require the borrower to redeem up to one-sixth of the Note’s initial principal and accrued interest monthly, and any unexercised redemption amounts can be carried over to future months.

 

- 8 -

 

 

In connection with the Streeterville loan transaction, Damon Motors Corporation, a Delaware corporation, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Damon Motors (the “Damon Subsidiary”), and Damon Motors, each entered into a Guaranty, dated as of June 26, 2024, whereby Damon Motors and the Damon Subsidiary guaranteed the performance of Grafiti Holding’s obligations under the Note. Additionally, Grafiti Holding’s obligations under the Note are secured by a lien on the promissory note issued by Damon Motors to Grafiti Holding and all related claims, rights and interests in such note issued by Damon Motors, pursuant to a Security Agreement between Streeterville and Grafiti Holding, dated June 26, 2024.

 

On February 27, 2025, the Company and Streeterville entered into a Second Amendment (the “Note Amendment”) to the Note originally issued by the Company to Streeterville on June 26, 2024, in an original principal amount of $6,470,000.

 

Pursuant to the Note Amendment, the parties have agreed to amend the Note to grant Streeterville the right to convert, from time to time at its election, all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the Note into Common Shares, no par value, of the Company (the “Conversion Shares”). The number of Conversion Shares deliverable under a conversion notice will be equal to the amount of the outstanding balance of the Note being converted, divided by the conversion price, which is 90% of the lowest VWAP of the Company’s common shares reported by Bloomberg during the ten trading days preceding the delivery date of a conversion notice.

 

The Note Amendment contains an ownership limitation, pursuant to which the Company shall not effect any issuance of Conversion Shares to the extent that such issuance would cause Streeterville, together with its affiliates, to beneficially own a number of Common Shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such date, including the Common Shares issuable upon such issuance.

 

Upon the closing of the underwritten registered offering on March 21, 2025 (the “March Offering”), the outstanding principal amount was partially repaid and reduced to $4,491,700, and the Note Floor Price was adjusted to $3.1375 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.0251). However, we expect that the Floor Price will be further adjusted to $0.10 upon the first closing of any Common Shares sold under this Offering.

 

As of July 21, 2025, the total outstanding balance under the Note consists of $4,491,700 in principal and $668,527 in accrued interest, which are convertible into an aggregate of 51,602,270 Common Shares, assuming a conversion price equal to $0.10 upon the first closing of any Common Shares sold under this Offering.

 

Implications of Being a Foreign Reporting Issuer

 

Damon qualifies as a “foreign private issuer,” as defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act in the United States, based on the applicable criteria as of the last business day of the Company’s most recently completed third fiscal quarter, ended March 31, 2025. Notwithstanding the Company’s qualification as a foreign private issuer, the Company has voluntarily chosen to file with the SEC periodic and current reports and registration statements on forms prescribed for U.S. domestic issuers, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, current reports on Form 8-K and registration statements on Form S-1, including this Offering Circular, instead of filing on the reporting and registration forms available to foreign private issuers.

 

Although the Company has voluntarily chosen to file periodic reports and current reports, as well as registration statements, on U.S. domestic issuer forms, the Company will maintain its status as a foreign private issuer. Accordingly, as a foreign private issuer, the Company remains exempt from the U.S. federal proxy rules pursuant to Section 14 of the Exchange Act and Regulations 14A and 14C thereunder, Regulation FD, and its officers, directors, and principal shareholders are not subject to the reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. See further discussion in the section “Foreign Private Issuer Status” in “Management” on page 109.

Emerging Growth Company

 

Damon is an “emerging growth company,” as defined in Section 2(a) of the Securities Act, as modified by the United States Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012 (or the “JOBS Act”). As such, Damon is eligible to 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 non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. If some investors find our securities less attractive as a result, there may be a less active trading market for our securities and the prices of our securities may be more volatile.

 

In addition, Section 107 of the JOBS Act also provides that an “emerging growth company” can take advantage of the extended transition period provided in Section 7(a)(2)(B) of the Securities Act for complying with new or revised accounting standards. In other words, an “emerging growth company” can delay the adoption of certain accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. Damon intends to take advantage of the benefits of this extended transition period.

 

Damon 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 completion of the initial public offering of our securities, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 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 end of the prior fiscal year’s second fiscal quarter; 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. References herein to “emerging growth company” have the meaning associated with it in the JOBS Act.

 

Smaller Reporting Company

 

Damon is a “smaller reporting company” as defined in Item 10(f)(1) of Regulation S-K. Smaller reporting companies may take advantage of certain reduced disclosure obligations, including, among other things, providing reduced executive compensation disclosure. Damon will remain a smaller reporting company until the last day of the fiscal year in which (1) the market value of its common equity held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the prior September 30th or (2) the market value of its common equity exceeds $250 million and its annual revenues exceeds $100 million during such fiscal year. As a foreign private issuer, Damon can only use the scaled disclosure requirements available to a smaller reporting company if it continues to file periodic and current reports and registration statements under domestic issuer forms and rules and provides financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP, which it has voluntarily chosen to do.

Risk Factors

 

You should carefully consider the risks and uncertainties described below and the other information in this Offering Circular before making an investment in our Common Shares. Our business, financial condition, results of operations or prospects could be materially and adversely affected if any of these risks occurs, and as a result, the market price of our Common Shares could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment. This Offering Circular also contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” herein. Our actual results could differ materially and adversely from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of certain factors, including those set forth below.

 

Risks Related to this Offering and Ownership of Our Common Shares

 

We have broad discretion in the use of the net proceeds from this Offering and may not use them effectively.

 

Our management will have broad discretion in the application of the net proceeds, including for any of the purposes described in the section of this Offering Circular entitled “Use of Proceeds.” You will be relying on the judgment of our management with regard to the use of these net proceeds, and you will not have the opportunity, as part of your investment decision, to assess whether the net proceeds are being used appropriately. The failure by our management to apply these funds effectively could result in financial losses that could have a material adverse effect on our business, cause the price of our securities to decline and delay the development of our product candidates. Pending the application of these funds, we may invest the net proceeds from this Offering in a manner that does not produce income or that loses value.

 

The public offering price will be set by our Board and does not necessarily indicate the actual or market value of our Common Shares.

 

Our Board, or a committee designated by the Board, will approve the public offering price and other terms of this Offering after considering, among other things: the current market price of our Common Shares; trading prices of our Common Shares over time; the volatility of our Common Shares; our current financial condition and the prospects for our future cash flows; the availability of and likely cost of capital of other potential sources of capital; the characteristics of interested investors; and market and economic conditions at the time of the Offering. The public offering price is not intended to bear any relationship to the book value of our assets or our past operations, cash flows, losses, financial condition, net worth or any other established criteria used to value securities. The public offering price may not be indicative of the fair value of the Common Shares.

 

Our stock price is volatile and there is a limited market for our shares.

 

Our Common Shares have only recently become publicly traded. The market price of our Common Shares has been volatile and could continue to fluctuate widely in price in response to various factors, many of which are beyond our control. In addition, the securities markets have from time to time experienced significant price and volume fluctuations that are unrelated to the operating performance of publicly traded companies. While these fluctuations have often been unrelated to the operating results of such companies and in recent times have been exacerbated by investors’ concerns stemming from geopolitical issues and changes in macroeconomic conditions, factors that may affect the volatility of our stock price include the following:

 

our ability to execute our business plan;

 

- 13 -

 

changes in our industry, including the announcement of new products, services, or technological innovations by us or our competitors;

 

competitive pricing pressures;

 

our ability to obtain working capital financing;

 

additions or departures of key personnel, including members of our executive leadership;

 

sales of our Common Shares;

 

operating results that fall below expectations;

 

regulatory developments;

 

economic and other external factors, including changes in macroeconomic conditions, including inflationary pressures;

 

period-to-period fluctuations in our financial results;

 

our inability to develop or acquire new or needed technologies or successfully integrate acquired businesses;

 

the public’s response to press releases or other public announcements by us or third parties, including filings with the SEC;

 

changes in financial estimates or ratings by any securities analysts who follow our Common Shares, our failure to meet these estimates or failure of those analysts to initiate or maintain coverage of our Common Shares;

 

the development and sustainability of an active trading market for our Common Shares;

 

any future sales of our Common Shares by our officers, directors and significant shareholders, or the sale or attempted sale of a large amount of our Common Shares, or the appearance of such sales, including sales of Common Shares in this Offering;

 

terrorist attacks, natural disasters and the effects of climate change, regional and global conflicts, sanctions, laws and regulations that prohibit or limit operations in certain jurisdictions, public health crises or other such events impacting countries where we have operations; and

 

actual or purported “short squeeze” trading activity.

 

Our Common Shares were recently delisted from Nasdaq and began trading on the OTC Pink Current Market (now the OTCID Basic Market) on May 20, 2025, where trading volumes has historically been limited. See further discussion under the risk factors “Our common shares have recently been delisted from Nasdaq and are currently traded on the OTCID Basic Market, which may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our shares and limit our ability to raise additional capital” below. The public trading market for our Common Shares depends on a marketplace of willing buyers and sellers at any given time, which in turn depends on factors outside of the Company’s control, including general economic and market conditions and the decisions of individual investors. As such, a holder of our Common Shares who wishes to sell his or her shares may not be able to do so immediately or at a price acceptable to them.

We have a history of operating losses and we will need to raise capital in addition to capital raised in this Offering to fund our planned operations and, additionally, there is no assurance that we will be able to achieve profitability, raise additional financing or continue as a going concern.

 

Our financial statements have been prepared on a going-concern basis under which an entity is considered to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the ordinary course of business. However, the audited consolidated financial statements of Grafiti Holding for the years ended June 30, 2024, 2023, and 2022 and Damon Motors for the years ended June 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022 include a going concern explanatory paragraph in the independent auditor reports.

 

We have a history of operating losses and have accumulated a deficit of $142,962,099 as of March 31, 2025, and expect to incur additional future losses. The ability of our company to continue as a going concern is dependent upon our attaining and maintaining profitable operations and raising additional capital as needed, but there can be no assurance that we will be able to raise sufficient financing. After completion of this Offering, we will need to raise additional funds to continue our planned operations.

 

Our ability to generate positive cash flow from operations is dependent upon sustaining targeted cost reductions and generating sufficient revenues. While we have implemented measures to reduce non-essential costs, these reductions alone are insufficient to offset our operating losses. Our management is evaluating options and strategic transactions and continuing to market and promote our product and service offerings to increase revenues, however, there is no guarantee that these efforts will be successful or that we will be able to achieve or sustain profitability. We have funded our operations primarily with private offerings and debt financing. Our history of operating losses and cash uses, our projections of the level of cash that will be required for our operations to reach profitability, may impair our ability to raise capital on terms that we consider reasonable and at the levels that we will require over the coming months. We cannot provide any assurance that we will be able to secure additional funding from public or private offerings or debt financings on terms acceptable to us, if at all. If we are unable to obtain the requisite amount of financing needed to fund our planned operations, it would have a material adverse effect on our business and ability to continue as a going concern, and we may have to curtail, or even to cease, certain operations. If additional funds are raised through the issuance of equity securities or convertible debt securities, it will be dilutive to our shareholders and could result in a decrease in our share price.

 

If securities or industry analysts do not publish research or reports about our business, or publish negative reports about our business, our share price and trading volume could decline.

 

The trading market for our Common Shares will depend, in part, on the research and reports that securities or industry analysts publish about us or our business. We do not have any control over these analysts or the content that they publish about us. At present, there may be few or no securities or industry analysts providing coverage of our Common Shares. If our financial performance fails to meet any available analyst estimates, or one or if any analysts who cover us downgrade our Common Shares or change their opinion of our Common Shares, our share price would likely decline.

 

We are eligible to be treated as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act, and we cannot be certain if the reduced disclosure requirements applicable to emerging growth companies will make our Common Shares less attractive to investors.

 

We are an “emerging growth company”, as defined in the JOBS Act. For as long as we continue to be an emerging growth company, we may take advantage of exemptions from various reporting requirements that are applicable to other public companies that are not emerging growth companies, including (1) not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, (2) reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements and (3) exemptions from the requirements of holding a nonbinding advisory vote on executive compensation and shareholder approval of any golden parachute payments not previously approved. In addition, as an emerging growth company, we are only required to provide two years of audited financial statements and two years of selected financial data in this Offering Circular. We could be an emerging growth company for up to five years, although circumstances could cause us to lose that status earlier, including if the market value of our common shares held by non-affiliates exceeds $700.0 million as of any June 30 before that time or if we have total annual gross revenue of $1.07 billion or more during any fiscal year before that time, in which cases we would no longer be an emerging growth company as of the following December 31 or, if we issue more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt during any three-year period before that time, we would cease to be an emerging growth company immediately. Even after we no longer qualify as an emerging growth company, we may still qualify as a “smaller reporting company” which would allow us to take advantage of many of the same exemptions from disclosure requirements, including not being required to comply with the auditor attestation requirements of Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act, not being required to provide selected financial data in the registration statements and periodic reports that we file with the SEC, and reduced disclosure obligations regarding executive compensation in our periodic reports and proxy statements. We cannot predict if investors will find our common shares less attractive because we may rely on these exemptions. If some investors find our common shares less attractive as a result, and if our common shares become publicly traded, such trading market may be less active than it otherwise could be if we were not to take advantage of such exemptions, and our share price may be more volatile.

 

- 15 -

 

 

Our independent registered public accounting firm will not be required to formally attest to the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting until the later of our second annual report or the first annual report required to be filed with the SEC following the date we are no longer an “emerging growth company” as defined in the JOBS Act. We cannot assure you that there will not be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies in our internal controls in the future.

 

Under the JOBS Act, emerging growth companies can also delay adopting new or revised accounting standards until such time as those standards apply to private companies. We have irrevocably elected to take advantage of this extended transition period, and therefore, our financial statements may not be comparable to those of companies that comply with such new or revised accounting standards.

 

As a foreign private issuer, we are exempt from certain U.S. securities laws and regulations that apply to U.S. domestic issuers, which may afford less protection to shareholders.

 

Although we have voluntarily chosen to file periodic reports, current reports, and registration statements using U.S. domestic issuer forms, we will maintain our status as a foreign private issuer under U.S. securities laws. As a result, we are exempt from certain requirements applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, including:

 

The proxy rules set forth in Section 14 of the Exchange Act and Regulations 14A and 14C thereunder, meaning we are not required to solicit proxies or provide proxy statements in compliance with these U.S. rules. Instead, we will follow applicable Canadian proxy solicitation rules and practices;

 

Regulation FD, which prohibits selective disclosure of material nonpublic information to certain market participants; and

 

The reporting and short-swing profit recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act, which require officers, directors, and certain significant shareholders of U.S. domestic issuers to report transactions in the company’s equity securities and to disgorge any profits realized from short-swing trading transactions.

 

As a result of these exemptions, shareholders may not have the same rights, access to information, and protections as they would if were subject to all of the obligations of a U.S. domestic issuer.

 

We may lose our foreign private issuer status in the future, which could result in significant additional costs and expenses.

 

The determination of foreign private issuer status is made annually on the last business day of an issuer’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and, accordingly, the next determination will be made with respect to the Company on the last business day of December 2025. If the Company loses its foreign private issuer status on this determination date, then, beginning on the first day of the fiscal year following the determination date, it would have to comply with U.S. federal proxy rules and Regulation FD, and its officers, directors and principal shareholders would become subject to the reporting and short-swing profit disclosure and recovery provisions of Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As a U.S. listed public company that is not a foreign private issuer, the Company may incur significant additional legal, accounting and other expenses that it would not incur as a foreign private issuer.

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting. If we are unable to remediate these weaknesses, or otherwise fail to maintain proper and effective internal controls, our ability to produce timely and accurate financial statements could be impaired, which could adversely affect our operating results, our ability to operate our business, our share price and access to the capital markets.

 

We have identified material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, leading to the conclusion that our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025. We recently amended and restated our quarterly financial statements for the three and six months ended December 31, 2024, due to an accounting error in which transaction costs incurred in connection with the Business Combination were understated by $2,300,000. Upon re-evaluation, management concluded that the error arose from material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, including ineffective controls over period-end financial disclosure, inadequate monitoring activities to assess the operation of internal controls, insufficient controls for financial information processing and reporting, and a lack of resources with the requisite skills for financial reporting under U.S. GAAP. Our inability to remediate these material weaknesses, the discovery of additional weaknesses, or failure to establish and maintain effective disclosure controls and internal control over financial reporting could adversely affect our results of operations, share price, and investor confidence in our company.

 

Section 404 of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 requires that companies evaluate and report on the effectiveness of their internal control over financial reporting. As previously disclosed in more detail, we have identified material weaknesses as of March 31, 2025. Due to the material weaknesses in our internal control over financial reporting, we have also concluded our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2025.

 

Failure to have effective internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures can impair our ability to produce accurate financial statements on a timely basis and has led and could again lead to a restatement of our financial statements. If, as a result of the ineffectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting and disclosure controls and procedures, we cannot provide reliable financial statements, our business decision processes may be adversely affected, our business and results of operations could be harmed, investors could lose confidence in our reported financial information and our ability to obtain additional financing, or additional financing on favorable terms, could be adversely affected.

 

Our management has taken action to begin remediating the material weaknesses; however, certain remedial actions have not started or have only recently been undertaken, and while we expect to continue to implement our remediation plans throughout the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, we cannot be certain as to when remediation will be fully completed. In addition, we could in the future identify additional internal control deficiencies that could rise to the level of a material weakness or uncover other errors in financial reporting. During the course of our evaluation, we may identify areas requiring improvement and may be required to design additional enhanced processes and controls to address issues identified through this review. In addition, there can be no assurance that such remediation efforts will be successful, that our internal control over financial reporting will be effective as a result of these efforts or that any such future deficiencies identified may not be material weaknesses that would be required to be reported in future periods.

 

If we fail to remediate these material weaknesses and maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures or internal control over financial reporting, we may not be able to rely on the integrity of our financial results, which could result in inaccurate or additional late reporting of our financial results, as well as delays or the inability to meet our future reporting obligations or to comply with SEC rules and regulations. This could result in claims or proceedings against us, including by shareholders or the SEC. The defense of any such claims could cause the diversion of the Company’s attention and resources and could cause us to incur significant legal and other expenses even if the matters are resolved in our favor.

We do not intend to pay cash dividends to our shareholders.

 

We do not intend to pay cash dividends to our shareholders. We currently intend to retain any future earnings for funding growth and, therefore, do not expect to pay any cash dividends in the foreseeable future.

 

Indemnification of our officers and directors may cause us to use corporate resources to the detriment of our shareholders.

 

Our Articles eliminate the personal liability of our directors for monetary damages arising from a breach of their fiduciary duty as directors to the fullest extent permitted by British Columbia law. This limitation does not affect the availability of equitable remedies, such as injunctive relief or rescission. Until October 17, 2028, our Articles require us to indemnify our directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by British Columbia law, including in circumstances in which indemnification is otherwise discretionary under British Columbia law.

 

Under British Columbia law, we may indemnify our directors or officers or other persons who were, are or are threatened to be made a named defendant or respondent in a proceeding because the person is or was our director, officer, employee or agent, if we determine that the person:

 

conducted himself or herself in good faith, reasonably believed, in the case of conduct in his or her official capacity as our director or officer, that his or her conduct was in our best interests, and, in all other cases, that his or her conduct was at least not opposed to our best interests; and

 

in the case of any criminal proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe that his or her conduct was unlawful.

 

These persons may be indemnified against expenses, including attorneys’ fees, judgments, fines, excise taxes and amounts paid in settlement, actually and reasonably incurred by the person in connection with the proceeding. If the person is found liable to the corporation, no indemnification will be made unless the court in which the action was brought determines that the person is fairly and reasonably entitled to indemnity in an amount that the court will establish.

 

Reporting company compliance may make it more difficult to attract and retain officers and directors.

 

The Sarbanes-Oxley Act and rules implemented by the SEC have required changes in corporate governance practices of public companies. As a reporting company, these rules and regulations will increase our compliance costs and make certain activities more time consuming and costly. As a reporting company, these rules and regulations may make it more difficult and expensive for us to maintain our director and officer liability insurance and we 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 more difficult for us to attract and retain qualified persons to serve on our board of directors or as executive officers, and to maintain insurance at reasonable rates, or at all.

 

Our Common Shares have recently been delisted from Nasdaq and are currently traded on the OTCID Basic Market, which may adversely affect the market price and liquidity of our shares and limit our ability to raise additional capital.

 

On May 20, 2025, our Common Shares were delisted from the Nasdaq Global Market and began trading on the OTC Pink Current Market maintained by OTC Markets Group Inc., where trading volume has historically been limited and may remain so. The OTC Pink Current Market became the OTCID Basic Market effective as of July 1, 2025. We are also seeking to have our shares posted for trading on the OTCQB Venture Market (“OTCQB”), though no assurance can be provided that we will be able to satisfy the criteria for trading on the OTCQB or that the staff of OTC Markets will approve the posting of the our shares for trading on the OTCQB.

 

The delisting from Nasdaq has made trading in our Common Shares more difficult for investors, which may result in reduced liquidity and increased price volatility. Without a Nasdaq listing, investors may have difficulty obtaining current price quotations, and trading may be limited, sporadic, and occur at depressed prices. Additionally, the loss of a national exchange listing has negatively impacted our visibility and reputation in the capital markets, making it more challenging to attract investor interest and raise additional capital. The absence of an exchange listing may also adversely affect the valuation and acceptance of our common shares in connection with potential business combinations, strategic transactions, or future financing activities.

 

- 18 -

 

 

Additionally, following the delisting and given our current stock price, our Common Shares are deemed “penny stock” under Rule 15g-9 of the Exchange Act. This designation imposes additional sales practice requirements on broker-dealers, which could further limit the liquidity and marketability of our shares and restrict the ability of investors to resell their shares in the secondary market. We are also subject to increased compliance burdens under state securities laws in connection with any sales of our securities, further limiting our access to capital markets and increasing compliance costs.

 

While our Common Shares are currently quoted on the OTCID Basic Market, there can be no assurance that an active and liquid trading market will develop or be sustained. Although we are in the process of applying to upgrade to the OTCQB, there is no guarantee that we will meet the eligibility requirements or that our application will be approved. If we are unable to establish and maintain a robust trading market on a market operated by OTC Markets, our ability to raise capital, continue as a going concern, and maintain investor confidence could be materially and adversely affected. In addition, failure to maintain a trading market for our common shares may trigger events of default or acceleration under our existing financing arrangements, including those with Streeterville. Such defaults could result in immediate cash payment obligations, placing further strain on our liquidity and potentially jeopardizing our ability to continue operations.

 

Our stock price has been volatile, and the issuance of shares upon the exercise of Series A Warrants has resulted in significant dilution. Additional issuances under our current financing arrangements with Streeterville or other new issuances could further depress the market price of our Common Shares.

 

Following the closing of the March Offering, investors began exercising their Series A Warrants on an alternate cashless basis, resulting in the issuance of 18,347,300 (pre-reverse split - 2,293,412,544) Common Shares by the Company. As of July 21, 2025, 19 Series A Warrants (pre-reverse split – 2,352 Series A Warrants) remain outstanding, which may result in the issuance of up to 19 additional Common Shares (pre-reverse split – 2,352 additional Common Shares) having an exercise price of $24.38 per Common Share (pre-reverse split - $0.195).

 

In connection with the March Offering, the floor price under the June 2024 Note was adjusted to $0.0251, however, as a result of the reverse stock split on July 3, 2025, the adjusted floor price is $3.1375. We expect that the Floor Price will be further adjusted to $0.10 upon the first closing of any Common Shares sold under this Offering. As of July 21, 2025, the outstanding principal amount was partially repaid and reduced to $4,491,700, with an additional $668,527 in accrued unpaid interest, which may result in an issuance of 51,602,270 Common Shares, assuming a conversion price equal to $0.10 upon the first closing of any Common Shares sold under this Offering.

 

Additionally, as of July 21, 2025, the outstanding principal balance under the December 2024 SPA was $3,158,000, with an additional $147,370 in accrued unpaid interest. Streeterville may make purchases of Common Shares in satisfaction of outstanding pre-paid purchases pursuant to the pricing formula set forth in the December 2024 SPA. If the Company receives additional funding under the total $10,000,000 commitment or if Streeterville elects to purchase Common Shares in satisfaction of the outstanding balance under the December 2024 SPA, further issuances of Common Shares may occur.

 

In addition to these financing arrangements, the Company may issue additional Common Shares to settle outstanding obligations, raise capital or compensate employees and service providers. The Company is generally not restricted from issuing additional Common Shares or securities convertible into or exchangeable for Common Shares. Under our Articles and the BCBCA we are authorized to issue an unlimited number of Common Shares. Any actual or anticipated future issuances, particularly those at prices below the current market price, could significantly dilute existing shareholders, depress our share price, and impair our ability to raise capital.

Risks Relating to Our Business

 

The Company has incurred significant costs associated with the Business Combination and will continue to incur significant costs associated with operating as a public reporting company.

 

The Company has incurred substantial, non-recurring costs related to the consummation of the Business Combination and expects to continue incurring significant expenses as it operates as a public reporting company. These costs include legal, financial advisory, accounting and auditing, banking, and consulting fees, as well as expenses for regulatory filings, SEC fees, printing, and mailing. Additionally, the Company may incur further costs to retain key employees and engage new employees to support its transition to operating as a public reporting entity. These expenses are either the responsibility of the party incurring them during the Business Combination or will be paid by the Company following the Closing.

 

The Company is an early-stage company with a history of losses and expects to incur significant expenses and continuing losses for the foreseeable future. There is no guarantee that the Company will achieve or sustain profitability.

 

The Company has incurred losses since its inception and expects to continue to incur operating and net losses each quarter until such time as it achieves sufficient sales and production capacity at an assembly facility, which is not expected until 2026. Even if the Company is able to successfully develop, produce and sell its vehicles, there can be no assurance that they will be commercially successful. The Company’s potential profitability is dependent upon the successful development, production, commercialization and acceptance of its vehicles, which has not yet occurred, and may never occur.

 

Prior to the closing, Grafiti Holding incurred a net loss of approximately US$1.3 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 and approximately US$1.6 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately US$3.3 million as of September 30, 2024. Damon Motors incurred a net loss of approximately US$34.0 million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024 and approximately $7.4 million during the quarter ended September 30, 2024, and had an accumulated deficit of approximately $148.0 million as of September 30, 2024. Following the closing, we have continued to incur loss and anticipate generating a significant loss for the current fiscal year, due to the factors discussed below. As of March 31, 2025, we have accumulated a deficit of $142,962,099.

 

The Company expects to continue to incur significant expenditures in connection with the execution of its business strategy, including, without limitation, as a result of: continuing to design and develop and beginning to manufacture its existing and planned vehicles; equipping and expanding its pilot, support research and development and mass-production manufacturing facilities to produce its vehicles potentially in the US and international locations, and subsequently ramping-up production capacity at such facilities; building up inventories of parts and components for its vehicles; developing or securing personal mobility charging partnerships; expanding its design, research, development, maintenance and repair capabilities; increasing its sales and marketing activities and developing its distribution infrastructure; designing and implementing a show room network; expanding its general and administrative functions to support its growing operations.

 

Because it will incur the costs and expenses from these efforts before it receives any incremental revenues with respect thereto, the Company’s losses in future periods may be significant. In addition, the Company may find that these efforts are more expensive than currently anticipated, including by reason of delays in product development and commercialization, or that these efforts may not result in revenues, which would further increase its losses. The Company’s ability to produce revenues will depend, in part, on its ability to finalize and begin commercial start of production of its HyperSport vehicle, which is not expected to occur until 2026.

 

Management does not expect its SAVES distribution business to greatly expand. The Company’s ability to generate positive cash flow from operations in this business is dependent upon sustaining certain cost reductions and generating sufficient revenues. Our ability to achieve profitability with respect to the SAVES distribution business is more challenging when sales slow due to adverse economic conditions, notwithstanding our cost reduction efforts, because our cost reduction efforts may not be sufficient to offset declining gross profit.

 

- 20 -

 

 

For the reasons discussed above, there is no guarantee that the Company will reach profitability in the near term or at all, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

The Company has a limited operating history which makes it difficult to evaluate its future business prospects and may increase investment risk.

 

The Company’s limited operating history makes evaluating its business and future prospects difficult. Damon Motors began operations in 2017 and has not yet begun mass production or the commercial delivery of its first motorcycle. If the Company does not successfully address these risks, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects will be materially and adversely harmed. The Company has a very limited operating history and, as it attempts to transition from research and development activities to production and sales, it is difficult, if not impossible, to forecast its future results, and management has limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect its business. The Company intends to derive a substantial portion of its revenue from the sale of its electric motorcycles, none of which have reached commercialization stage to date. If actual results differ materially from management’s estimates in future periods, the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company is currently in concept phase of second vehicle, the HyperFighter, which is scheduled for delivery in 2028. The Company’s motorcycles require significant investment prior to commercial introduction and may never be successfully developed, produced, commercialized or accepted. There are no assurances that the Company will be able to successfully develop its models in a timely manner, or secure future business from recreational customers.

 

The Company has encountered, and expects to continue to encounter, risks and uncertainties frequently experienced by early-stage companies in rapidly changing markets, including risks related to its ability to, among other things:

 

design and produce safe, reliable and quality vehicles on an ongoing basis;

 

build a well-recognized and respected brand;

 

establish and expand its customer base;

 

continue to make significant investments in research, development, manufacturing, marketing and sales;

 

successfully market its vehicles and its other services;

 

properly price its services and successfully anticipate the take-rate and usage of such services by users;

 

improve and maintain its operational efficiency;

 

maintain a reliable, secure, high-performance and scalable technology infrastructure;

 

hire, integrate, retain and motivate professional and technical talent, including key members of management;

 

anticipate and adapt to changing market conditions, including technological developments and changes in competitive landscape; and

 

navigate an evolving and complex regulatory environment.

 

If the Company fails to address any or all of these risks and challenges, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

- 21 -

 

 

The Company will initially depend on revenue generated from a single model of vehicle and in the foreseeable future will be significantly dependent on a limited number of models.

 

The Company’s personal mobility business will initially depend substantially on the sales and success of its HyperSport motorcycles, which we expect will be our only volume manufactured vehicle in the market for an extended period of time, and in the foreseeable future will be significantly dependent on a limited number of vehicles. The Company will rely on sales from the HyperSport motorcycles, among other sources of financing, for the capital that will be required to develop and commercialize those subsequent models. To the extent that (i) production of the Company’s motorcycles is delayed, interrupted or reduced, (ii) the Company’s product variety and motorcycles do not meet customer expectations or do not align with projected timelines, cost and volume targets or (iii) any of the Company’s vehicles are not well- received by the market for any reason, the Company’s revenue and cash flow would be adversely affected. In any such case, the Company may need to seek additional financing earlier than it expects, which financing may not be available to it in a timely manner and on commercially reasonable terms, or at all, and the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company’s success will depend on its ability to economically produce its vehicles at scale, and its ability to produce vehicles of sufficient quality and appeal to customers on schedule and at a scale that is unproven.

 

The Company’s business success will depend in large part on its ability to economically produce, market and sell its motorcycles at sufficient capacity to meet the demands of its customers. The Company will need to scale its production capacity in order to successfully implement its business strategy, and plans to do so in the future by, among other things, establishing development and ramp-up capacity at one or more assembly facilities. The Company has no experience in mass-production of its motorcycles. The Company does not know whether it will be able to develop efficient, automated, low-cost production capabilities and processes, or whether it will be able to secure reliable sources of supply from suppliers and manufacturers, in each case that will enable it to meet the quality, price, engineering, design and production standards, as well as the production volumes, required to successfully mass market its motorcycles and meet its business objectives and customer needs.

 

Even if the Company is successful in developing mass-production capability and processes and can reliably source supplies in sufficient volume, it does not know whether it will be able to do so in a manner that avoids significant delays and cost overruns, including as a result of factors beyond its control, such as problems with suppliers and manufacturers, or in time to meet the commercialization schedules of future vehicles or to satisfy the requirements of its customers. The Company’s ability to effectively reduce its cost structure over time is limited by the fixed nature of many of its planned expenses in the near-term, and its ability to reduce long-term expenses is constrained by its need to continue investment in its business strategy.

 

If the Company fails to develop and scale such mass-production capability and processes within its projected costs and timelines, the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company may be unable to reduce and adequately control the costs associated with operating its business.

 

The Company will require significant capital to develop and grow its business and it expects to incur significant costs which will impact its profitability, including research and development expenses as new models are rolled out and existing models improved, raw material procurement costs, selling and distribution expenses as it builds its brand and markets its vehicles and general and administrative expenses as it scales its operations. In addition, the Company may incur significant costs in connection with its services and honoring its commitments under its service and warranty packages. The Company’s ability to become profitable in the future will not only depend on its ability to successfully market its vehicles and other products and services, but also its ability to control its costs. If the Company is unable to design, manufacture, market, sell and distribute and service its vehicles and services in a cost-efficient manner, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

To carry out its proposed business plan to develop, manufacture, sell and service electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products, the Company will require a significant amount of capital.

 

The Company’s capital expenditures will continue to be significant in the foreseeable future as it expands its business and its level of capital expenditures will be significantly affected by customer demand for its products and services. The fact that the Company has a limited operating history means it has limited historical data on the demand for its products and services. As a result, its future capital requirements are uncertain and actual capital requirements may be materially different from those it currently anticipates. The Company expects that it will ultimately need to seek additional equity or debt financing to finance its capital expenditures, though the timing or amount of any such capital expenditures cannot be predicted with certainty at this time. The sale of additional equity or equity-linked securities would dilute the Company’s shareholders, while the incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased debt service obligations and covenants that potentially restrict its operations.

 

There is no assurance that such additional financings will be available to the Company in a timely manner or on terms that are favorable, or at all. The Company’s ability to obtain the necessary financing to carry out its business plan is subject to a number of factors, including general market conditions and investor acceptance of its business plan. These factors may cause the timing, amount, terms and conditions of such financing to be unattractive or unavailable to the Company. If the Company is unable to secure sufficient financing if and when needed or desired, it may have to significantly reduce its spending, delay or cancel its planned activities or substantially change its current corporate structure and its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company may experience significant delays in the design, manufacture, finance, regulatory approval, launch, transportation and delivery of its motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products.

 

The Company’s will depend in large part on its ability to execute on its plans to design, manufacture, finance, obtain regulatory approval for, launch, transport and deliver its vehicles, and any delay associated therewith could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects, and could cause liquidity constraints and reputational damage.

 

Vehicle manufacturers often experience delays in the design, manufacture and commercial launch of new products. The Company has no experience to date in high volume manufacturing of its vehicles. Even if it is successful in developing high-volume manufacturing capability and processes and in reliably sourcing its component supply, the Company cannot guarantee that it will be able to do so in a manner that avoids significant delays and cost overruns or in time to meet its vehicle commercialization schedules or in satisfaction of customer expectations or requirements. Further, the Company will also rely on third-party suppliers for the provision and development of the key components and materials used in its vehicles. To the extent the Company’s suppliers experience any delays in providing it with or developing necessary components, it could experience delays in delivering on its timelines. Further, prior to mass production of its vehicles, the Company will need such vehicles to be fully designed, engineered and approved for sale according to differing requirements, including, but not limited to, regulatory requirements, in the different jurisdictions in which it intends to commercialize them.

 

The Company does not currently have arrangements in place that will allow it to fully execute its business plan.

 

To sell its motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products as envisioned, the Company will need to enter into agreements and arrangements that are not currently in place. These include entering into manufacturing agreements for the Company’s current and future electric personal mobility products not yet in development and acquiring or developing additional manufacturing capability, arranging for the transportation of HyperSport motorcycles, and obtaining battery and other essential supplies in the quantities that the Company requires. If the Company is unable to enter into such agreements or is only able to do so on terms that are unfavorable, the Company may not be able to fully carry out its business plans as currently contemplated or at all.

 

- 23 -

 

 

If the Company is unable to design, develop, manufacture and sell new electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products and services that address additional market opportunities, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may suffer.

 

The Company may not be able to successfully design, develop, manufacture and sell new electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products and services, address new market segments or develop a significantly broader customer base. To date, the Company has focused its business on the development and sale of the HyperSport HS motorcycles, which have targeted mainly affluent super sport motorcycle market. The Company will need to address additional markets and expand its customer demographic to further grow its business. If the Company fails to address additional market opportunities, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company may not be able to accurately estimate the supply and demand for its vehicles, which could result in a variety of inefficiencies in its business and hinder its ability to generate revenue. If the Company fails to accurately predict its manufacturing requirements, the Company could incur additional costs or experience delays.

 

It is difficult for management to predict the Company’s future revenues and appropriately budget for its expenses, and management has limited insight into trends that may emerge and affect the Company’s business. The Company will be required to provide forecasts of its demand to its suppliers several months prior to the scheduled delivery of vehicles to its prospective customers. Currently, there is no historical basis for making judgments about the demand for the Company’s vehicles or its ability to design, develop, manufacture and sell vehicles, or its profitability in the future. If the Company overestimates its requirements, its suppliers may have excess inventory, which indirectly would increase its costs. If the Company underestimates its requirements, its suppliers may have inadequate inventory, which could interrupt manufacturing of its vehicles and result in delays in deliveries and revenues or negatively impact its ongoing relationships with its suppliers. In addition, lead times for materials and components that its suppliers order may vary significantly and depend on factors such as the specific supplier, contract terms and demand for each component at a given time. If the Company fails to order sufficient quantities of product components in a timely manner, the delivery of vehicles to its customers could be delayed, and its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company has received only a limited number of reservations for its vehicles, all of which may be cancelled and are fully refundable, and there is no assurance that such reservations will be converted into sales.

 

As of July 21, 2025, Damon had 3,153 reservations for HyperSport and HyperFighter motorcycles, which were placed with fully refundable deposits. The Company’s customers may cancel their reservations without penalty and for any reason until they place an order for their motorcycle, at which point the deposit becomes non-refundable and the customer is required to pay an additional non-refundable deposit. The Company has experienced cancellations in the past, and further customers may cancel their reservations for many reasons outside of its control, including changes in government subsidies and economic incentives. The potentially long wait from the time a reservation is made until the time the vehicle is delivered could also impact user decisions on whether to ultimately make a purchase, due to potential changes in preferences, competitive developments and other factors. In addition, any further delays in the expected start of production of the HyperSport line of motorcycles or other upcoming models could result in significant reservation cancellations. No assurance can be given that reservations will not be cancelled and will ultimately result in the final purchase, delivery and sale or lease of motorcycles. Accordingly, the number of reservations has significant limitations as a measure of demand for the Company’s products, including demand for particular body styles, models or trim levels, or for future motorcycle sales.

 

If the Company fails to manage future growth effectively, it may not be able to produce, market, service and sell (or lease) its motorcycles successfully.

 

The Company plans to expand its operations in the near future in connection with the planned production of its motorcycles, which will require it to hire and train new personnel, accurately forecast production and revenue, control expenses and investments in anticipation of expanded operations, establish new or expand current design, production and sales and service facilities, implement and enhance administrative infrastructure, systems and processes, address new markets and establish international operations. If the Company fails to efficiently manage its growth, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

- 24 -

 

 

The Company expects to experience significant and rapid growth in the scope and complexity of its business, which may place a significant strain on the Company’s senior management team and its financial and other resources. Such growth, if experienced, may expose the Company to greater costs and other risks associated with growth and expansion. The Company may be required to hire a broad range of additional employees, including other support personnel, among others, in order to successfully advance its operations. The Company may be unsuccessful in these efforts or may be unable to project accurately the rate or timing of these increases.

 

The Company’s ability to manage its growth effectively will require the Company to continue to improve its operations, to improve financial and management information systems, and to train, motivate, and manage future employees. This growth may place a strain on the Company’s management and operational resources. The failure to develop and implement effective systems, or to hire and retain sufficient personnel for the performance of all of the functions necessary to effectively service and manage the Company’s business, or the failure to manage growth effectively, could have a materially adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, difficulties in effectively managing the budgeting, forecasting, and other process control issues presented by such a rapid expansion could harm the Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations.

 

The Company has very limited experience servicing its motorcycles. If it is unable to address the service requirements of its future customers, the Company’s business may be materially and adversely affected.

 

The Company has limited experience in servicing its motorcycles, and it expects to be required to increase its servicing capabilities as it scales its operations and continues to grow, including by building the Company experience centers in the U.S. and Canada. Servicing electric vehicles is different than servicing vehicles with internal combustion engines and requires specialized skills, including high voltage training and servicing techniques. Although the Company believes the experience it has gained developing and operating prototypes of its motorcycles positions it well to service its motorcycles and future products, the Company has no after-sale experience of maintaining and servicing motorcycles for its customers at scale, and there is no guarantee Damon will be able to do so. There can be no assurance that the Company’s service arrangements will adequately address the service requirements of the Company’s customers to their satisfaction, or that the Company and its partners will have sufficient resources to timely meet ongoing service requirements at scale. In addition, the Company anticipates the level and quality of the services it plans to provide its customers will have a direct impact on the success of its brand, reputation and ongoing sales. Failure to address the servicing requirements of its customers could harm the Company’s reputation or materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company’s customers will also depend on the Company’s customer support team to resolve technical and operational issues relating to the software integrated in its vehicles. The Company’s ability to provide effective customer support is largely dependent on its ability to attract, train and retain qualified personnel with experience in supporting customers on platforms such as the Company’s platform. As it continues to grow, additional pressure may be placed on the Company’s customer support team, and the Company may be unable to respond quickly enough to accommodate short-term increases in customer demand for technical support. The Company may also be unable to modify the future scope and delivery of its technical support to compete with changes in the technical support provided by its competitors. Increased customer demand for support, without corresponding revenue, could increase costs and negatively affect the Company’s results of operation. If the Company is unable to successfully address the servicing requirements of its customers or establish a market perception that it maintains high-quality support, it may be subject to claims from its customers, including for breach of warranties, loss of revenue or damages, and its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company’s motorcycles may not perform in line with customer expectations.

 

The Company’s vehicles, including the HyperSport line of motorcycles, may not perform in line with customers’ expectations. For example, the Company’s vehicles may not have the durability or longevity of other vehicles in the market and may not be as easy and convenient to repair as other vehicles in the market. Any product defects or any other failure of the Company’s vehicles to perform as expected could harm its reputation and result in adverse publicity, harm to the Damon brand and reputation, lost revenue, delivery delays, product recalls, product liability claims, significant warranty and other expenses, and could have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. Additionally, problems and defects experienced by other electric consumer vehicles could by association have a negative impact on perception and customer demand for the Company’s vehicles.

 

- 25 -

 

 

Further, the Company’s vehicles may contain defects in components, software, design and manufacture that may cause them not to perform as expected or that may require repairs, recalls or design changes, any of which would require significant financial and other resources to successfully navigate and resolve. The Company initially plans to deliver its vehicles without CoPilot ADAS, and thereafter to deliver its vehicles with CoPilot ADAS with limited functionality, with the goal to activate additional features over time. There is no guarantee that the CoPilot ADAS will ultimately perform in line with expectations. The Company’s vehicles use a substantial amount of software code to operate and software products are inherently complex and often contain defects and errors when first introduced. Efforts to remedy any issues the Company observes in its products could significantly distract management’s attention from other important business objectives, may not be timely, may hamper production or may not be to the satisfaction of its customers. Further, while extensive internal testing has been performed on the Company’s vehicles’ software and hardware systems, the Company’s limited operating history and limited field data reduce its ability to evaluate and predict the long-term quality, reliability, durability and performance characteristics of its vehicles. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to detect and resolve any defects in its vehicles prior to their sale to customers. If any of the Company’s vehicles fail to perform as expected, deliveries may have to be delayed, product recalls initiated and servicing or updates under warranty provided at the Company’s expense, which could adversely affect the Company’s brand in its target markets and its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

Sales will depend in part on the Company’s ability to establish and maintain confidence in its business prospects among customers, analysts and others within its industry.

 

Consumers may be less likely to purchase the Company’s products if they do not believe that its business will succeed or that its operations, including service and customer support operations, will continue for many years. Similarly, suppliers and other third parties will be less likely to invest time and resources in developing business relationships with the Company if they are not convinced that its business will succeed. Accordingly, to build, maintain and grow its business, the Company must establish and maintain confidence among customers, suppliers, analysts and other parties with respect to its liquidity and business prospects. Maintaining such confidence may be particularly difficult as a result of many factors, including the Company’s limited operating history, others’ unfamiliarity with its products, uncertainty regarding the future of electric vehicles, any prior or future delays in scaling production, delivery and service operations to meet demand, competition and the Company’s production and sales performance compared with market expectations. Some of these factors are outside of the Company’s control, and any negative perceptions about the Company’s business prospects, even if exaggerated or unfounded, would likely harm its business and make it more difficult to raise additional capital in the future. In addition, a significant number of new electric vehicle companies have recently entered the automotive industry, which is an industry that has historically been associated with significant barriers to entry and a high rate of failure. If these new entrants or other manufacturers of electric vehicles go out of business, produce vehicles that do not perform as expected or otherwise fail to meet expectations, such failures may have the effect of increasing scrutiny of others in the industry, including the Company, and further challenging customer, supplier and analyst confidence in the Company’s business prospects.

 

The Company’s business and prospects depend significantly on its ability to build its brand. The Company may not succeed in continuing to establish, maintain and strengthen the Damon brand, and its brand and reputation could be harmed by negative publicity regarding its company or products.

 

The Company’s business and prospects are heavily dependent on its ability to develop, maintain and strengthen the “Damon” brand. If the Company fails to establish, maintain and strengthen its brand, it may lose the opportunity to build a critical mass of customers. Promoting and positioning the “Damon” brand will likely depend significantly on the Company’s ability to provide high quality vehicles and services and engage with its customers as intended and the Company has limited experience in these areas. In addition, the Company expects that its ability to develop, maintain and strengthen the “Damon” brand will also depend heavily on the success of its user development and branding efforts. Such efforts mainly include building a community of online and offline users engaged with the Company through its mobile application and the Company stores as well as other branding initiatives and events. Such efforts may be non-traditional and may not achieve the desired results. To promote the “Damon” brand, the Company may be required to change its user development and branding practices, which could result in substantially increased expenses, including the need to use traditional media such as television, radio and print. If the Company does not develop and maintain a strong brand, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially and adversely impacted.

 

- 26 -

 

 

In addition, if incidents with the Company’s business, vehicles or services occur or are perceived to have occurred, whether or not such incidents are the Company’s fault, the Company could be subject to adverse publicity. In particular, given the popularity of social media, posts and opinions regarding Damon, whether true or not, could quickly proliferate and harm consumer perceptions and confidence in the “Damon” brand. Further, there is the risk of potential adverse publicity related to the Company’s manufacturing or other partners, whether or not such publicity is related to their collaboration with the Company. The Company’s ability to successfully position its brand could also be adversely affected by perceptions about the quality of its partners’ vehicles. In addition, from time-to-time, the Company’s vehicles are evaluated and reviewed by third parties. Any negative reviews or reviews which compare Damon unfavorably to competitors could adversely affect consumer perception about the Company’s vehicles.

 

The motorcycle and personal mobility market is highly competitive, and the Company may not be successful in competing in this industry.

 

The motorcycle and personal mobility market is highly competitive, and the Company expects it will become even more so in the future. Currently, the Company’s principal competition for its vehicles comes principally from manufacturers of motorcycles with internal combustion engines powered by gasoline, including in the premium and other segments of its business. The Company cannot assure that customers will choose its vehicles over those of its competitors’ internal combustion-engine motorcycles. Although the Company intends to strategically enter into the market in the premium electric vehicle segment, it similarly expects this segment will become more competitive in the future as additional competitors enter into it, both from established brands and new entrants from various regions of the globe.

 

Many of the Company’s current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing and other resources than the Company and may be able to devote greater resources to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale and support of their products. Based on publicly available information, a number of the Company’s competitors already have displayed prototype electric motorcycles and have announced target availability and production timelines, while others have launched pilot programs or full commercial offerings in certain markets.

 

Notably, the Company expects competition in its industry to intensify in the future in light of increased demand and regulatory push for alternative fuel vehicles, continuing globalization and consolidation in the worldwide motorcycle industry. Factors affecting competition include, among others, product quality and features, innovation and development time, pricing, reliability, safety, fuel and energy economy, customer service (including breadth of service network) and financing terms.

 

The Company’s ability to successfully compete in the motorcycle industry will be fundamental to its future success in existing and new markets and its market share. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete successfully in the markets in which it operates. If the Company’s competitors introduce new models or services that successfully compete with or surpass the quality, price, performance or availability of the Company’s vehicles or services, the Company may be unable to satisfy existing customers or attract new customers at the prices and levels that would allow it to generate attractive rates of return on its investment. Increased competition could result in lower vehicle unit sales, price reductions and revenue shortfalls, loss of customers and loss of market share, which may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

There may be unanticipated obstacles to the execution of the Company’s business model.

 

The Company’s business plans may change significantly. The Company’s business model is capital intensive. The Company believes that its chosen activities and strategies are achievable in light of current economic and legal conditions with the skills, background, and knowledge of the Company’s principals and advisors. The Company’s management reserves the right to make significant modifications to its stated strategies depending on future events.

 

- 27 -

 

 

The Company’s proposed plan of operation and prospects will depend largely upon its ability to successfully establish the Company’s presence in a timely fashion, retain and continue to hire skilled management, technical, marketing, and other personnel, and attract and retain significant numbers of quality business partners and corporate clients. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully implement its business plan or develop or maintain future business relationships, or that unanticipated expenses, problems or technical difficulties which would result in material delays in implementation will not occur.

 

Demand in the motorcycle and personal mobility industry is highly volatile.

 

Volatility of demand in the motorcycle and personal mobility industry may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. The markets in which the Company will be competing have been subject to considerable volatility in demand in recent periods. Demand for motorcycle and other potential personal mobility product sales depends to a large extent on general, economic, political and social conditions in a given market and the introduction of new motorcycles and technologies. As an early state company in the personal mobility industry, the Company has fewer financial resources than more established motorcycle and other personal mobility product manufacturers to withstand changes in the market and disruptions in demand.

 

The Company’s ability to generate meaningful product revenue will depend upon consumer’s willingness to adopt electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products.

 

The Company’s growth will greatly depend upon the adoption by consumers of, and the Company is subject to an elevated risk of any reduced demand for, alternative fuel motorcycles in general and electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products in particular. If the market for electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products does not develop as expected or develops more slowly than expected, the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected. The market for alternative fuel motorcycles is relatively new, rapidly evolving, characterized by rapidly changing technologies, price competition, additional competitors, evolving government regulation and industry standards, frequent new motorcycle announcements and changing consumer demands and behaviors. Factors that may influence the adoption of alternative fuel motorcycles, and specifically electric motorcycles, include:

 

perceptions about electric motorcycle and other personal mobility products quality, safety (in particular with respect to lithium-ion battery packs), design, performance and cost, especially if adverse events or accidents occur that are linked to the quality or safety of electric motorcycles;

 

perceptions about motorcycle and other personal mobility products safety in general, in particular safety issues that may be attributed to the use of advanced technology, including motorcycle electronics and braking systems;

 

the limited range over which electric motorcycles and personal mobility products may be driven on a single battery charge;

 

the decline of an electric motorcycle and other personal mobility products range resulting from deterioration over time in the battery’s ability to hold a charge or short-term declines resulting from adverse weather conditions;

 

concerns about electric grid capacity and reliability, which could derail the Company’s efforts to promote electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products as a practical solution to motorcycles which require gasoline;

 

the availability of alternative fuel motorcycles, including plug-in hybrid electric motorcycles;

 

- 28 -

 

 

improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine;

 

the availability of service for electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products;

 

the environmental consciousness of consumers;

 

volatility in the cost of oil and gasoline;

 

government regulations and economic incentives promoting fuel efficiency and alternate forms of energy;

 

access to charging stations, standardization of electric motorcycle and other personal mobility products charging systems and consumers’ perceptions about convenience and cost to charge an electric motorcycle or other personal mobility products;

 

the availability of tax and other governmental incentives to purchase and operate electric motorcycles or future regulation requiring increased use of nonpolluting motorcycles;

 

perceptions about and the actual cost of alternative fuel; and

 

macroeconomic factors.

 

The influence of any of the factors described above may cause potential customers not to purchase the Company’s electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products, which would materially adversely affect the Company’s business, operating results, financial condition and prospects.

 

The transportation industry has significant barriers to entry that the Company must overcome in order to manufacture and sell its electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products at scale.

 

The transportation industry is characterized by significant barriers to entry, including large capital requirements, investment costs of developing, designing, manufacturing and distributing vehicles, long lead times to bring vehicles to market from the concept and design stage, the need for specialized design and development expertise, regulatory requirements, establishing a brand name and image and the need to establish sales and service locations. Since the Company is focused on electric motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products, it faces a variety of added challenges to entry that a traditional motorcycle manufacturer would not encounter, including additional costs of developing and producing an electric powertrain that has comparable performance to a traditional internal combustion engine in terms of range and power, inexperience with servicing electric vehicles, regulations associated with the transport of batteries, the need to establish or provide access to sufficient charging locations and unproven high-volume customer demand for fully electric motorcycles. If the Company is not able to overcome these barriers, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected, and its ability to grow its business may be harmed.

 

The Company’s planned distribution model is different from the predominant current distribution model for motorcycle manufacturers, which makes evaluating its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects difficult.

 

The Company’s planned distribution model is not common in the automotive industry today, particularly in North America. The Company plans to conduct vehicle sales directly to customers rather than through dealerships, primarily through the Company’s website, subject to obtaining applicable dealer licenses and equivalent permits in such jurisdictions. Further, generally all of the Company’s vehicles will be made to order. This model of vehicle distribution is relatively new and unproven, and subjects the Company to substantial risk as it requires, in the aggregate, significant expenditures and provides for slower expansion of distribution and sales systems than may be possible by utilizing the traditional dealer franchise system. For example, the Company may not be able to utilize long established sales channels developed through a franchise system to increase its sales volume. Moreover, the Company will be competing with companies with well established distribution channels. The Company’s success will depend in large part on the Company’s ability to effectively develop its own sales channels and marketing strategies.

 

- 29 -

 

 

Implementing such distribution model is subject to numerous significant challenges, including obtaining licenses or equivalent permits and approvals from government authorities, and there is no assurance that the Company will be able to obtain such licenses, permits and approvals. Further, there are substantial automotive franchise laws in place in many jurisdictions around the world and the Company may be exposed to significant franchise dealer litigation risks.

 

If the Company’s direct sales and leasing model does not develop as expected or develops more slowly than expected, it may be required to modify or abandon its sales and leasing model, which could materially and adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company’s marketing programs may not be successful.

 

The Company believes its brand is critical to its business. The Company will incur costs and expend other resources in its marketing efforts to raise brand awareness and attract and retain customers. These initiatives may not be successful, resulting in expenses incurred without the benefit of revenues or growth. Additionally, most, if not all, of the Company’s competitors have greater financial resources, which enable them to spend significantly more than the Company is able to on marketing and advertising. Should the Company’s competitors increase spending on marketing and advertising or the Company’s marketing funds decrease for any reason, or should its advertising and promotions be less effective than its competitors, there could be a material adverse effect on Company’s results of operations and financial condition.

 

The Company is dependent on its suppliers, some of which are single or limited source suppliers, and the inability of these suppliers to deliver necessary components of the Company’s vehicles at prices and volumes acceptable to the Company would have a material adverse effect on its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company is dependent on third-party suppliers and manufacturers to supply and manufacture parts and components, sub-assemblies and assemblies included in its vehicles, and it expects to continue to rely on third parties to supply and manufacture such parts and components, sub-assemblies and assemblies in the future. While the Company obtains parts and components, sub-assemblies and assemblies from multiple sources whenever possible, some of the parts and components, sub- assemblies and assemblies used in its vehicles are purchased from a single source.

 

The Company intends to mitigate supply chain risk by entering into long-term supply agreements with key manufacturers and suppliers where appropriate, including where there is a single source supplier, but has not secured such long-term supply agreements to date, and there can be no assurance that it will be able to do so on terms that are acceptable to the Company, or at all. Further, the supplier agreements the Company may enter into with key suppliers in the future may contain provisions where such agreements can be terminated in various circumstances, including potentially without cause. While the Company believes that it may be able to establish alternate supply relationships and can obtain or potentially engineer replacement components for some of its single source components, it may be unable to do so in the short-term or at all, or at prices, volumes or quality levels that are acceptable to it. Changes in business conditions, pandemics, governmental changes, political conflict and other factors beyond the Company’s control, or that it does not presently anticipate, could affect its ability to receive components from its suppliers.

 

Any disruption in the supply of parts and components, sub-assemblies and assemblies, whether or not from a single source supplier, could temporarily disrupt manufacturing of the Company’s vehicles until an alternative supplier is able to supply the required material. Changes in business conditions, unforeseen circumstances, governmental changes, and other factors beyond the Company’s control or which it does not presently anticipate, could also affect Damon’s suppliers’ ability to deliver components to the Company on a timely basis and ultimately, the Company’s ability to economically produce and distribute its vehicles.

 

In particular, the Company’s vehicles contain electronics, microprocessors control modules, and other computer chips.

 

- 30 -

 

 

The Company is dependent on its suppliers to deliver many components that contain these microchips, and a shortage of microchips could disrupt the Company’s operations and its ability to timely deliver vehicles to customers. Damon is closely monitoring the availability of these components, assessing the supply chain and production impacts and seeking potential alternatives.

 

Also, if any of the Company’s suppliers become economically distressed or go bankrupt, the Company may be required to provide substantial financial support or take other measures to ensure supplies of components or materials, which could increase its costs, affect its liquidity or cause production disruptions.

 

The inability of any of the Company’s suppliers to deliver necessary parts and components, sub-assemblies and assemblies according to the Company’s schedule and at prices, volumes or quality levels acceptable to the Company, the Company’s inability to efficiently manage these parts and components, sub-assemblies and assemblies, or the termination or interruption of any material supply arrangement could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results or prospects. Further, as the scale of the Company’s vehicle production increases, the Company will need to accurately forecast, purchase, warehouse and transport components to its manufacturing facilities and servicing locations internationally and at much higher volumes. If it is unable to accurately match the timing and quantities of component purchases to its actual needs or successfully implement automation, inventory management and other systems to accommodate the increased complexity in its supply chain, the Company may incur unexpected production disruption, storage, transportation and write-off costs.

 

Any of the foregoing may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results or prospects.

 

If the Company’s suppliers fail to use ethical business practices and comply with applicable laws and regulations, the Company’s brand image could be harmed due to negative publicity.

 

The Company’s core values, which include developing high quality electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products while operating with integrity, are an important component of the Damon brand image, which makes the Company’s reputation sensitive to allegations of unethical business practices. The Company does not control its suppliers or their business practices. Accordingly, there is no assurance of compliance on the part of the Company’s suppliers with ethical business practices, such as environmental responsibilities, fair wage practices, and compliance with child labor laws, among others. A lack of demonstrated compliance could lead the Company to seek alternative suppliers, which could increase its costs and results in delayed delivery of its products, product shortages or other disruptions of its operations.

 

Violation of labor or other laws by the Company’s suppliers or the divergence of a supplier’s labor or other practices from those generally accepted as ethical in the markets in which the Company operates could also attract negative publicity for Damon and its brand. If Damon, or other manufacturers in the industry in which the Company operates, encounters similar problems in the future, the Damon brand and the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company could experience cost increases or disruptions in supply of raw materials or other components used in its vehicles.

 

The Company incurs significant costs related to procuring raw materials required to manufacture and assembling its vehicles. The Company uses various raw materials in its vehicles including aluminum, steel, carbon fiber, non-ferrous metals such as copper, lithium, nickel, and cobalt. The prices for these raw materials fluctuate depending on factors beyond the Company’s control including market conditions and global demand for these materials and could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. The Company’s business will also depend on the continued supply of battery cells for its vehicles. Battery cell manufacturers may refuse to supply electric vehicle manufacturers to the extent they determine that their vehicles are not sufficiently safe. The Company is exposed to multiple risks related to availability and pricing of quality lithium-ion battery cells. These risks include:

 

the inability or unwillingness of current battery cell manufacturers to build or operate battery cell manufacturing plants to supply the numbers of lithium-ion cells required to support the growth of the electric or plug-in hybrid vehicle industry as demand for such cells increases;

 

disruption in the supply of cells due to quality issues or recalls by the battery cell manufacturers; and

 

an increase in the cost or decrease in the availability of raw materials used in battery cells, such as lithium, nickel, cobalt, used in lithium-ion cells.

Further, currency fluctuations, tariffs or shortages in petroleum and other economic or political conditions may result in significant increases in freight charges and raw material costs. Substantial increases in the prices for the Company’s raw materials or components would increase its operating costs and could reduce its margins. In addition, a growth in popularity of electric vehicles without a significant expansion in battery cell production capacity could result in shortages which would result in increased materials costs to the Company, and its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

Increased freight and shipping costs or disruptions in transportation and shipping infrastructure could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company intends to utilize air, sea and ground freight via third-party freight services for the transportation of supplies to its facilities and assembled vehicles to its customers. Adverse fluctuations in freight costs, limitations on shipping and receiving capacity, and other disruptions in the transportation and shipping infrastructure at important shipping and delivery points for the Company’s products, as well as for parts and components, sub-assemblies and assemblies used in the Company’s vehicles could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. For example, delivery delays or increases in transportation costs (including through increased energy costs, increased carrier rates or driver wages as a result of driver shortages, a decrease in transportation capacity, or work stoppages or slowdowns) could significantly decrease the Company’s ability to make vehicle sales and earn revenues. Labor shortages or work stoppages in the transportation industry or long-term disruptions to the national and international transportation infrastructure that lead to delays or interruptions of deliveries or which would necessitate the Company securing alternative shipping suppliers could also increase the Company’s costs or otherwise materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company depends on certain key personnel, and its success will depend on its continued ability to retain and attract qualified management, technical and vehicle engineering and sales personnel.

 

The Company’s success will depend on the efforts, abilities, continued service and performance of the Company’s senior management team and key management, technical, vehicle engineering and sales personnel, and in particular from Dom Kwong, Chief Executive Officer and Bal Bhullar, Chief Financial Officer. A number of these key employees have significant experience in the motorcycle and electric vehicle manufacturing industry. If any key personnel were to terminate their employment with, or cease providing services to, the Company, the risks described in this section may be heightened and the Company may have difficulty or may not be able to locate and hire a suitable replacement. The Company has not obtained any “key person” insurance on certain key personnel at this time.

 

The Company’s directors and executive officers may have other business interests and obligations to other entities.

 

None of the Company’s directors or officers will be required to manage the Company as their sole and exclusive function and they may have other business interests and may engage in other activities in addition to those relating to the Company, provided that such activities do not compete with the business of Damon or otherwise breach their agreements with the Company. The Company is dependent on its directors and officers to successfully operate Damon. Their other business interests and activities could divert time and attention from operating Damon’s business.

 

Potential conflicts of interest may arise in the course of the Company’s operations involving any member of management’s interest, or an affiliate company’s interest, as well as their respective interests in other potential unrelated activities. While the Company does have processes and procedures in place to identify, analyze or monitor conflicts of interest, there is no assurance that such processes and procedures will identify or disclose every conflict of interest that may arise.

 

- 32 -

 

 

The Company’s business may be adversely affected by labor and union activities.

 

Although none of the Company’s employees are currently represented by a labor union, it is common throughout the motorcycle industry generally for many employees at motorcycle companies to belong to a union, which can result in higher employee costs and increased risk of work stoppages. The Company also directly and indirectly depends upon other companies with unionized work forces, such as parts suppliers and trucking and freight companies. If a work stoppage occurs within the Company’s business or that of the Company’s key suppliers, it could delay the manufacture and sale of Damon’s electric motorcycles and may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. Additionally, if the Company expands its business to include full in-house manufacturing of motorcycles or other potential personal mobility products, the Company’s employees might join or form a labor union and the Company may be required to become a union signatory.

 

The Company has undergone recent reductions in force and may undergo additional reductions in force in the future. However, any headcount reduction may not result in anticipated cost savings and could have negative or unanticipated impacts on the Company’s business.

 

To reduce operating expenses, the Company reduced its headcount, approximately 50% in early 2023 to late 2024, and the Company may seek to undergo additional workforce restructurings in the future. The Company may not realize the anticipated benefits, savings and improvements in its cost structure from such restructurings because of unforeseen difficulties, delays or unexpected costs. In particular, headcount reductions could lead to disruptions to operations, material delays in research and development, attrition beyond planned layoffs and increased challenges to hire and retain qualified personnel. If the Company is unable to realize the expected operational efficiencies and cost savings from past or future restructurings, the Company’s operating results and financial condition would be adversely affected.

 

The Company is or may be subject to risks associated with strategic alliances and acquisitions.

 

The Company has entered into and may in the future enter into strategic alliances, including joint ventures or minority equity investments, with various third parties to further the Company’s business purpose from time-to-time. These alliances could subject the Company to a number of risks, including risks associated with sharing proprietary information, non-performance by the third party and increased expenses in establishing new strategic alliances, any of which may materially and adversely affect its business. The Company may have limited ability to monitor or control the actions of these third parties and, to the extent any of these strategic third parties suffer negative publicity or harm to their reputation from events relating to their business, the Company may also suffer negative publicity or harm to its reputation by virtue of its association with any such third party.

 

In addition, although the Company does not have any current acquisition plans, if appropriate opportunities arise, the Company may acquire additional assets, products, technologies or businesses that are complementary to its existing business. In addition to a potential requirement for shareholder approval, the Company may also have to obtain 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 derail its business strategy if the Company fails to do so. Further, past and future acquisitions and the subsequent integration of new assets and businesses into the Company (including the Business Combination) may require significant attention from the Company’s management and could result in a diversion of resources from its existing business, which in turn could have an adverse effect on the Company’s business operations. Acquired assets or businesses may not generate the expected financial results. 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.

 

- 33 -

 

 

We may not be able to successfully integrate the business and operations of entities that we have acquired or may acquire in the future into our ongoing business operations, which may result in our inability to fully realize the intended benefits of these acquisitions, or may disrupt our current operations, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial position and results of operations.

 

Integrating the technology and operations acquired in connection with the Business Combination and any potential future acquisitions involves complex operational, technological and personnel-related challenges, which are time-consuming and expensive and may disrupt our ongoing business operations. Furthermore, integration involves a number of risks, including, but not limited to:

 

difficulties or complications in combining the companies’ operations;

 

differences in controls, procedures and policies, regulatory standards and business cultures among the combined companies;

 

the diversion of management’s attention from our ongoing core business operations;

 

increased exposure to certain governmental regulations and compliance requirements;

 

the potential increase in operating costs;

 

the potential loss of key personnel;

 

the potential loss of key customers or suppliers who choose not to do business with the combined business;

 

difficulties or delays in consolidating the acquired companies’ technology platforms, including implementing systems designed to maintain effective disclosure controls and procedures and internal control over financial reporting for the combined company and enable the Company to continue to comply with U.S. GAAP and applicable U.S. securities laws and regulations;

 

unanticipated costs to successfully integrate operations, technologies, personnel of acquired businesses and other assumed contingent liabilities;

 

difficulty comparing financial reports due to differing financial or internal reporting systems;

 

making any necessary modifications to internal financial control standards to comply with the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder; or

 

possible tax costs or inefficiencies associated with integrating the operations of the combined company.

 

These factors could cause us to not fully realize the anticipated financial or strategic benefits of future acquisitions which could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

Even if we are able to successfully operate the acquired businesses, we may not be able to realize the revenue and other synergies and growth that we anticipate from these acquisitions in the time frame that we currently expect, and the costs of achieving these benefits may be higher than what we currently expect, because of certain risks:

 

the possibility that the acquisition may not further our business strategy as we expected;

 

the possibility that we may not be able to expand the reach and customer base for the acquired companies’ current and future products as expected;

 

- 34 -

 

 

the possibility that we may have entered a market with no prior experience and may not succeed in the manner expected; and

 

the possibility that the carrying amounts of goodwill and other purchased intangible assets may not be recoverable.

 

As a result of these risks, the acquisitions and integration may not contribute to our earnings as expected, we may not achieve expected revenue synergies or return on invested capital when expected, or at all, and we may not achieve the other anticipated strategic and financial benefits of such acquisitions.

 

Manufacturing in collaboration with partners is subject to risks.

 

The Company has agreed to a partnership with Auteco, for the manufacture of a lower-cost global electric motorcycle (HyperLite) in the future. The Company intends to be paid by Auteco for each vehicle it assembles and sells on a per-vehicle basis monthly for the first five years of production. In addition, the Company has established a strategic partnership with Indika Energy for manufacturing, licensing and distribution in Indonesia, with the ability to expand that partnership to all of Southeast Asia. The Company may enter into similar with third party manufacturers in the future for its vehicles. Collaboration with third parties for the manufacturing of vehicles is subject to risks with respect to operations that are outside the Company’s control. The Company could experience delays to the extent its partners do not meet agreed upon timelines or experience capacity constraints. There is a risk of potential disputes with manufacturing partners, and the Company could be affected by adverse publicity related to its partners whether or not such publicity is related to their collaboration with the Company. The Company’s ability to successfully build a premium brand could also be adversely affected by perceptions about the quality of its manufacturing partners’ vehicles. In addition, although the Company is involved in each step of the supply chain and manufacturing process, given the Company’s reliance on its partners to meet the Company’s quality standards, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to successfully maintain such quality standards if outsourced manufacturing is adopted.

 

The Company may be unable to enter into new agreements or extend existing agreements with third-party manufacturing partners on terms and conditions acceptable to the Company and therefore may need to contract with other third parties or significantly add to its own production capacity. There can be no assurance that in such an event the Company would be able to partner with other third parties or establish or expand its own production capacity to meet its needs on acceptable terms or at all. The expense and time required to complete any transition, and to assure that vehicles manufactured at facilities of new third-party partners comply with the Company’s quality standards and regulatory requirements, may be greater than anticipated. The occurrence of any of the foregoing may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Manufacturing Capacity, if and when established by the Company, will present inherent risks.

 

While the Company expects to be ready for initial production in 2026, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to commence initial production on schedule and within budget, and more generally that the Company will be able to establish and expand production capacity to satisfy current reservations or future anticipated demand. This risk extends to supply chain and manufacturing quality risk, which could lead to lower volumes or lower quality than expected by customers. Further, if the Company is able to scale its manufacturing capacity to meet demand, the Company may need to incur greater facility costs, and there is no guarantee that the Company will be able to do so.

 

The delivery of HyperSport and subsequent motorcycles and other potential personal mobility products to the Company’s future customers and the revenue derived therefrom depends on the Company’s ability to source and fulfill the required vehicle manufacturing capacity, and it will depend on the ability of a future lessor to build and outfit future manufacturing facility. A future lessor’s ability to fulfill its obligations is outside of the Company’s control and depends on a variety of factors including the lessor’s operations, financial condition and geopolitical and economic risks. If a future lessor is unable to fulfill its obligations or is only able to partially fulfill its obligations, the Company will not be able to manufacture and sell its HyperSport and other motorcycles in the volumes anticipated within the timeframe that the Company anticipates, if at all.

 

- 35 -

 

 

The Company is and will be dependent on its manufacturing facilities. If one or more of its current or future manufacturing facilities become inoperable, capacity constrained or if operations are disrupted, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company’s future revenue will be dependent on its manufacturing facilities. To the extent that the Company experiences any operational risk including, among other things, natural or man-made disasters, including earthquakes, flooding, fire and power outages, or by health epidemics or pandemics, and labor work force and work stoppages, resulting in any of its current or future manufacturing facilities becoming inoperable or capacity constrained, the Company will be required to make capital expenditures even though it may not have available resources at such time. Additionally, there is no guarantee that the proceeds available from the Company’s insurance policies would be sufficient to cover such capital expenditures. As a result, the Company’s insurance coverage and available resources may prove to be inadequate for events that may cause any of its current or future manufacturing facilities to become inoperable or capacity constrained, or any significant disruption to its operations. Any disruption in the Company’s manufacturing processes could result in delivery delays, scheduling problems, increased costs, or production interruption, which, in turn, may result in its customers deciding to purchase products from its competitors. Damon is and will be dependent on its current and future manufacturing facilities which will in the future require a high degree of capital expenditures. If the Company’s current or future assembly facilities becomes inoperative, capacity constrained or if operations are disrupted, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company relies on complex machinery for its operations, and production of its vehicles involves a significant degree of risk and uncertainty in terms of operational performance, safety, security and costs.

 

The Company relies heavily on complex machinery for its operations and its production will involve a significant degree of uncertainty and risk in terms of operational performance, safety, security, and costs. The Company’s contemplated and its partners’ manufacturing facilities make use of large-scale machinery combining many components. The manufacturing plant components are likely to suffer unexpected malfunctions from time-to-time and will depend on repairs and spare parts to resume operations, which may not be available when needed. Unexpected malfunctions of the manufacturing facility components may significantly affect operational efficiency. Operational performance and costs can be difficult to predict and are often influenced by factors outside of the Company’s control, including, but not limited to, scarcity of natural resources, environmental hazards and remediation, costs associated with decommissioning of machines, labor disputes and strikes, difficulty or delays in obtaining governmental permits, damages or defects in electronic systems, industrial accidents, pandemics, fire, seismic activity, and natural disasters. There is no guarantee that adverse events will not occur in the future, or that Damon will be able to contain such events without damage or delay. Should operational risks materialize, it may result in the personal injury to or death of workers, the loss of production equipment, damage to manufacturing facilities, vehicles, supplies, tools and materials, monetary losses, delays and unanticipated fluctuations in production, environmental damage, administrative fines, increased insurance costs, and potential legal liabilities, all which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results or prospects. Although the Company generally carries insurance to cover such operational risks, there is no assurance that such insurance coverage will be sufficient to cover potential costs and liabilities arising therefrom. A loss that is uninsured or exceeds policy limits may require the Company to pay substantial amounts, which could adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company’s business may be negatively impacted by depreciation of equipment.

 

The Company expects to continue to invest significantly in what it believes is state of the art tooling, machinery and other manufacturing equipment for the product lines where the HyperSport and subsequent HyperDrive powertrain platforms-based vehicles are manufactured/assembled, and Damon will depreciate the cost of such equipment over its expected useful life. Additionally, the Company expects manufacturing partners will be investing in their production lines in support of the Company’s vehicle delivery goals. However, manufacturing technology may evolve rapidly, and the Company or its partners may decide to update its manufacturing process with cutting-edge equipment more quickly than expected. Moreover, as the Company ramps the commercial production of its vehicles, The Company’s experience may cause it to discontinue the use of already installed equipment in favor of different or additional equipment. The useful life of any equipment that would be retired early as a result would be shortened, causing the depreciation on such equipment to be accelerated, and to the extent such equipment is owned by us, the Company’s results of operations could be negatively impacted.

 

- 36 -

 

 

Misconduct by employees of the Company or third-party service providers could cause significant losses to the Company.

 

Misconduct by employees of the Company or third-party service providers could cause significant losses to the Company. Losses could also result from actions by third party service providers, including, without limitation, failing to recognize trades and misappropriating assets. In addition, employees and third-party service providers may improperly use or disclose confidential information, which could result in litigation or serious financial harm, including limiting the Company’s business prospects or future marketing activities. No assurances can be given that the due diligence performed by the Company will identify or prevent any such misconduct.

 

Dependence on a single licensor for our SAVES products and potential adverse changes to terms could negatively impact our financial condition and results of operations.

 

All of our revenues from the SAVES distribution business have been derived from the sale of product licenses we purchase from the licensor. The Parent acquired an exclusive license to use, market, distribute and develop the SAVES products pursuant to an exclusive software license and distribution agreement, by and among the Parent, Cranes Software International Ltd. and Systat Software, Inc., as amended on June 30, 2020 and February 22, 2021, and has licensed the SAVES products to us. In connection with the spin out and as reported in the current report on Form 8-K filed by the Parent on February 23, 2024, the Parent sold 100% of the equity interest in Grafiti LLC, then a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent which holds the exclusive license to develop and sell the SAVES products, along with other assets and businesses, to an entity controlled by Nadir Ali, the former Chief Executive Officer and former sole director of the Company prior to the consummation of the Business Combination.

 

As the licensor, Grafiti LLC has and its successors will have significant negotiating power over us and rapid, significant or adverse changes in sales terms and conditions, such as competitive pricing as well as reducing the level of purchase discounts and rebates this or any new vendor makes available to us, may reduce the profit we can earn on these vendors’ products and result in loss of revenue and profitability. Our gross profit could be negatively impacted if we are unable to pass through the impact of these changes to our distributors, resellers and customers. Additionally, significant changes in vendor payment terms or payment arrangements could negatively impact our liquidity and financial condition.

 

Our competitors in the technology distribution industry can take more market share by reducing prices on our most profitable vendor products, causing us to reduce prices on such products.

 

The technology distribution industry is characterized by intense competition, based primarily on product availability, credit terms and availability, price, effectiveness of information systems and e-commerce tools, speed of delivery, ability to tailor specific solutions to customer needs, quality and depth of product lines and training, service and support. Our customers are not required to purchase any specific volume of products from us and may move business if pricing is reduced by competitors, resulting in lower sales. As a result, we must be extremely flexible in determining when to reduce prices to maintain market share and sales volumes and when to allow our sales volumes to decline to maintain our desired level of profitability for our products. We compete with a variety of regional, national and international distributors and resellers, some of which may have greater financial resources than us. Many of our competitors compete principally on the basis of price and may have lower costs or accept lower selling prices than we do and, therefore, we may need to reduce our prices. In addition, vendors may choose to market their products directly to end-users, rather than through distributors such as us, and this could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations.

 

- 37 -

 

 

Our competitiveness in the technology distribution industry depends significantly on our ability to keep pace with the rapid changes in our industry. Failure by us to anticipate and meet our customers’ technological needs could adversely affect our competitiveness and growth prospects.

 

We operate and compete in the technology distribution industry which is characterized by rapid technological innovation, changing customer needs, evolving industry standards and frequent introductions of new products, product enhancements, services and distribution methods. Our success depends on our ability to develop expertise with these new products, product enhancements, services and distribution methods and to implement solutions that anticipate and respond to rapid changes in technology, the industry, and customer needs. The introduction of new products, product enhancements and distribution methods could decrease demand for current products or render them obsolete. Sales of products and services can be dependent on demand for specific product categories, and any change in demand for or supply of such products could have a material adverse effect on our net sales if we fail to adapt to such changes in a timely manner.

 

We offer one vendor’s product offerings and are dependent on our customers demand for this vendor’s products. There can be no assurances that consumer or commercial demand for our future products will meet, or even approach, our expectations. In addition, our pricing and marketing strategies may not be successful. Lack of customer demand, a change in marketing strategy and changes to our pricing models could dramatically alter our financial results. Unless we are able to release location-based products that meet a significant market demand, we will not be able to improve our financial condition or the results of our future operations.

 

The growth of our SAVES distribution business is dependent on increasing sales to our existing customers and obtaining new customers, which, if unsuccessful, could limit our financial performance.

 

Our ability to increase revenues from existing customers by identifying additional opportunities to sell more of our products and services and our ability to obtain new customers depends on a number of factors, including our ability to offer high quality products and services at competitive prices, meeting customers’ needs and expectations, the strength of our competitors and the capabilities of our sales and marketing departments. If we are not able to continue to increase sales of our products and services to existing customers or to obtain new customers in the future, we may not be able to increase our revenues and could suffer a decrease in revenues as well.

 

If our SAVES products fail to satisfy customer demands or to achieve increased market acceptance, our results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects could be materially adversely affected.

 

The market acceptance of our products is critical to our continued success. Demand for our SAVES products is affected by a number of factors beyond our control, including continued market acceptance, the timing of development and release of new products by competitors, technological change, and growth or decline in the statistical analytics and visualization market. If we are unable to continue to meet customer demands or to achieve more widespread market acceptance of our products, our business operations, financial results and growth prospects will be materially and adversely affected.

 

Defects, errors, or vulnerabilities in our SAVES products or services that we sell or the failure of such products or services to prevent a security breach, could harm our reputation and adversely affect our results of operations.

 

Because the SAVES products we sell are complex, they have contained and may contain software design errors or software bugs that are not detected until after their commercial release and deployment by customers. Defects may cause such products to be vulnerable to security attacks, cause them to fail to help secure information or temporarily interrupt customers’ networking traffic. Because the techniques used by hackers to access sensitive information change frequently and generally are not recognized until launched against a target, we may be unable to anticipate these techniques and provide a solution in time to protect customers’ data. In addition, defects or errors in our subscription updates or products could result in a failure to effectively update customers’ products and thereby leave customers vulnerable to advanced persistent threats (APTs) or security attacks.

 

Any defects, errors or vulnerabilities in the products we sell could result in:

 

expenditure of significant financial and product development resources in efforts to analyze, correct, eliminate, or work-around errors or defects or to address and eliminate vulnerabilities;

 

delayed or lost revenue;

 

- 38 -

 

 

loss of existing or potential customers or partners;

 

increased warranty claims compared with historical experience, or increased cost of servicing warranty claims, either of which would adversely affect gross margins; and

 

litigation, regulatory inquiries, or investigations that may be costly and harm our reputation.

 

Our SAVES business relies on a limited number of key customers, the importance of which may vary dramatically from year to year, and a loss of one or more of these key customers may adversely affect our operating results.

 

During the year ended June 30, 2024 and prior to the Business Combination, Grafiti Limited had one customer that accounted for 11% of revenue of Grafiti Limited and during the year ended June 30, 2023, Grafiti Limited had one customer that accounted for 16% of revenue. During the six-month period ended December 31, 2024, Grafiti Limited had one customer that accounted for a of 16% of revenue of Grafiti Limited. During the nine-month period revenue of the Company. Each of these customers may or may not continue to be a significant contributor to revenue from our SAVES business in the remainder of fiscal 2025 and beyond. No customer accounted for more than 10% of our gross revenue from the SAVES business during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. The loss of a significant amount of business from one of our major customers could materially and adversely affect our results of operations until such time, if ever, as we are able to replace the lost business. Significant customers or projects in any one period may not continue to be significant customers or projects in other periods. To the extent that we are dependent on any single customer, we are subject to the risks faced by that customer to the extent that such risks impede the customer’s ability to stay in business and make timely payments to us.

 

A delay in the completion of our customers’ budget processes could delay purchases of our SAVES products and services and have an adverse effect on our business, operating results and financial condition.

 

We rely on our customers to purchase products and services from us to maintain and increase our earnings, however, customer purchases are frequently subject to budget constraints, multiple approvals, and unplanned administrative, processing and other delays. If sales expected from a specific customer are not realized when anticipated or at all, our results could fall short of public expectations and our business, operating results and financial condition could be materially adversely affected.

 

If we cannot collect our receivables or if payment is delayed, our SAVES distribution business may be adversely affected by our inability to generate cash flow, provide working capital or continue our business operations.

 

Our SAVES distribution business depends on our ability to successfully obtain payment from our customers of the amounts they owe us for products received from us and any work performed by us. The timely collection of our receivables allows us to generate cash flow, provide working capital and continue our business operations. Our customers may fail to pay or delay the payment of invoices for a number of reasons, including financial difficulties resulting from macroeconomic conditions or lack of an approved budget. An extended delay or default in payment relating to a significant account will have a material and adverse effect on the aging schedule and turnover days of our accounts receivable. If we are unable to timely collect our receivables from our customers for any reason, our business and financial condition could be adversely affected.

 

If our SAVES products fail to satisfy customer demands or to achieve increased market acceptance, our results of operations, financial condition and growth prospects could be materially adversely affected.

 

The market acceptance of our SAVES products are critical to our continued success. Demand for our products is affected by a number of factors beyond our control, including continued market acceptance, the timing of development and release of new products by competitors, technological change, and growth or decline in the statistical analytics and visualization market. If we are unable to continue to meet customer demands or to achieve more widespread market acceptance of our products, our business operations, financial results and growth prospects will be materially and adversely affected.

 

- 39 -

 

 

Insurance and contractual protections related to our SAVES distribution business may not always cover lost revenue, increased expenses or liquidated damages payments, which could adversely affect our financial results.

 

Although we maintain insurance and intend to obtain warranties from suppliers, obligate subcontractors to meet certain performance levels and attempt, where feasible, to pass risks we cannot control to our customers, the proceeds of such insurance or the warranties, performance guarantees or risk sharing arrangements may not be adequate to cover lost revenue, increased expenses or liquidated damages payments that may be required in the future.

 

Risks Related to Economic Conditions

 

Global economic conditions, including inflation, could materially adversely impact demand for the Company’s products and services.

 

Damon’s operations and performance depend significantly on economic conditions. Motorcycles are generally considered discretionary items for consumers. Many factors impact discretionary spending, including general economic conditions, inflation, unemployment, credit markets and consumer confidence in future economic conditions. Global economic conditions continue to be uncertain, particularly in light of high inflation and U.S. growing international trade tensions. Consumer purchases of discretionary items tend to be suppressed during recessionary periods when disposable income is lower, or during periods of economic instability or uncertainty when consumer confidence is low, which may make potential customers more likely to forgo or to postpone purchasing Damon’s vehicles, or to purchase less expensive product offerings, which may be less profitable to Damon.

 

Any financial or economic crisis, or perceived threat of such a crisis, including a significant decrease in consumer confidence, may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, results of operations and prospects.

 

The global financial markets experienced significant disruptions in 2008 and the Canadian, United States, European and other economies went into recession. The recovery from the lows of 2008 and 2009 was uneven and the global financial markets are facing new challenges, including and supply chain shortages or disruptions, and future potential economic slowdowns. It is unclear whether these challenges will be contained and what effects they each may have. There is considerable uncertainty over the long-term effects of the expansionary monetary and fiscal policies that have been adopted by the central banks and financial authorities of some of the world’s leading economies. Economic conditions in China are sensitive to global economic conditions. Recently there have been signs that the rate of China’s economic growth is declining. Any prolonged slowdown in China’s economic development might lead to tighter credit markets, increased market volatility, sudden drops in business and consumer confidence and dramatic changes in business and consumer behaviors.

 

Sales of high-end and luxury consumer products, such as the Company’s performance electric motorcycles or other personal mobility products, depend in part on discretionary consumer spending and are even more exposed to adverse changes in general economic conditions. In response to their perceived uncertainty in economic conditions, consumers might delay, reduce or cancel purchases of the Company’s electric vehicles and the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company faces risks related to natural disasters, health epidemics and other outbreaks, which could significantly disrupt its operations.

 

The Company’s business could be adversely affected by the effects of local or global outbreaks, and epidemics or pandemics. The Company’s business operations could be disrupted if any of its employees are suspected of having contracted any contagious and virulent viruses or other diseases, since it could require its employees to be quarantined or its offices to be disinfected. In addition, to the extent that any such outbreak, epidemic or pandemic would have detrimental effects on general economic conditions the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results or prospects may be materially adversely affected.

The Company’s headquarters and the Company operated locations, as well as certain of the Company’s vendors and customers, are located in areas which have been and could be subject to natural disasters such as floods, hurricanes, tornadoes, fires or earthquakes. Adverse weather conditions or other extreme changes in the weather, including resulting electrical and technological failures, may disrupt the Company’s business and may adversely affect the Company’s ability to continue its operations. These events also could have indirect consequences such as increases in the costs of insurance if they result in significant loss of property or other insurable damage. Any of these factors, or any combination thereof, could adversely affect the Company’s operations.

 

Although the Company has data hosted in offsite locations, the Company’s backup system does not capture data on a real-time basis and the Company may be unable to recover certain data if a server fails. the Company cannot assure that any backup systems will be adequate to protect it from the effects of fire, floods, typhoons, earthquakes, power loss, telecommunications failures, break-ins, war, riots, terrorist attacks or similar events. Any of the foregoing events may give rise to interruptions, breakdowns, system failures, technology platform failures or internet failures, which could cause the loss or corruption of data or malfunctions of software or hardware as well as adversely affect the Company’s ability to provide services on its platform.

 

The Company’s risk management efforts may not be effective which could result in unforeseen losses.

 

The Company could incur substantial losses and its business operations could be disrupted if the Company is unable to effectively identify, manage, monitor, and mitigate financial risks, such as credit risk, interest rate risk, prepayment risk, liquidity risk, and other market-related risks, as well as operational risks related to its business, assets and liabilities. Damon’s risk management policies, procedures, and techniques, including its scoring methodology, may not be sufficient to identify all of the risks the Company is exposed to, mitigate the risks the Company has identified or identify additional risks to which the Company may become subject in the future.

 

The Company is subject to risks related to customer credit.

 

The Company has partnered to offer leasing and financing of its vehicles to potential customers within the U.S. and is working to establish partnerships outside the U.S. through other third-party financing partners, the Company currently has no agreements in place with any potential financing partners. The Company cannot provide any assurance that such third-party financing partners would be able or willing to provide such services on terms acceptable to the Company or its customers, or to provide such services at all. Further, because the Company has not yet sold any vehicles and no secondary market for its vehicles exists, the future resale value of its vehicles is difficult to predict, and the possibility that resale values could be lower than expected increases the difficulty of providing leasing terms that appeal to potential customers through such third-party financing partners. The Company believes that the ability to offer attractive leasing and financing options is particularly relevant to customers in the luxury motorsport vehicle segments in which the Company will compete, and if the Company is unable to offer its customers an attractive option to finance the purchase of or lease HyperSport motorcycles or planned future models, such failure could substantially reduce the pool of potential customers and decrease demand for the Company’s vehicles.

 

Further, offering leasing and financing alternatives to customers could expose the Company to risks commonly associated with the extension of consumer credit. Competitive pressure and challenging markets could increase credit risk through leases and loans to financially weak customers, extended payment terms, and leases and loans into new and immature markets, and any such credit risk could be further heightened in light of the economic uncertainty and any economic recession or other downturn, including by reason of a disease outbreak. If the Company is unable to provide leasing and financing arrangements that appeal to potential customers, or if the provision of such arrangements exposes it to excessive consumer credit risk, the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected.

Motorcycle retail sales depend heavily on affordable interest rates and availability of credit for financing and a substantial increase in interest rates could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

In certain regions, including North America and Europe, financing for new vehicle sales was available at relatively low interest rates in recent years due to, among other things, expansive government monetary policies. Interest rates began to rise sharply in early 2022, and market rates for new vehicle financing have increased as well. Higher interest rates make the Company’s vehicles less affordable to customers and could steer customers to less expensive vehicles that would be less profitable for the Company compared to premium vehicles. Additionally, if consumer interest rates remain high or increase further, or if financial service providers further tighten lending standards or restrict their lending to certain classes of credit, customers may not desire or be able to obtain financing to purchase or lease the Company’s vehicles.

 

Fluctuations in exchange rates could have a material and adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

 

The Company reports its financial results in U.S. dollars and anticipates that a material portion of its sales and operating costs will be realized in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. If the value of any of said currencies depreciates relative to the U.S. dollar, the Company’s foreign currency revenue will decrease when translated to U.S. dollar for reporting purposes. Alternatively, if the value of any of these currencies appreciates relative to the U.S. dollar, the Company’s operating costs will increase when translated to U.S. dollar for reporting purposes. Although these risks may sometimes be naturally hedged by a match in the Company’s sales and operating costs denominated in the same currency, fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could create discrepancies between the Company’s sales and its operating costs in a given currency which may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates could also have a material adverse effect on the relative competitive position of the Company’s products in markets where they face competition from manufacturers who are less affected by such fluctuations in exchange rates. The value of the U.S. dollar against the Canadian dollar and other currencies is affected by changes in various political and economic conditions. It is difficult to predict how market forces or government policy may impact the exchange rate between U.S. dollars and other currencies in the future. Changes in currency exchange rates can have impacts on the costs of imported goods for motorcycle or other personal mobility products assembly, and it can change the relative value or demand for motorcycles or such other personal mobility products abroad.

 

The Company’s sales and operating results may fluctuate from quarter-to-quarter and from year-to-year as they are affected, among other things, by the seasonal nature of the Company’s products, fluctuation in the Company’s operating costs and prevailing market conditions.

 

The Company’s future sales and operating results may experience substantial fluctuations from quarter-to-quarter and year-to-year. It is anticipated that sales for motorcycles in the principal markets in which the Company operates will be highest in spring and summer. In addition, the Company’s revenues and operating costs will fluctuate from period-to-period with the pace at which it increases its production capacity and designs, develops and produces new vehicles. As a result of these fluctuations in revenues and expenses, along with other factors that are beyond the Company’s control, including general economic conditions, changes in consumer preferences, weather conditions, vehicle sales mix, changes in the cost or availability of raw materials or labor, discretionary spending habits and currency exchange rate fluctuations, the Company may not be able to accurately predict its quarterly and annual sales and operating results, which are likely to fluctuate significantly from period- to-period. Sales and operating results in any period should not be considered indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.

 

Risks Related to Technology

 

The Company’s motorcycles rely on software and hardware that is highly technical, and if these systems contain errors, bugs or vulnerabilities, or if the Company is unsuccessful in addressing or mitigating technical limitations in its systems, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects could be materially adversely affected.

 

The Company’s vehicles rely on software and hardware, including software and hardware developed or maintained by third parties, that is highly technical and complex and will require modification and updates over the life of the vehicles. In addition, the performance of the software solutions included in the Company’s vehicles depends on the ability of such software and hardware to store, retrieve, process and manage immense amounts of data. The Company’s software and hardware may contain errors, bugs or vulnerabilities, and its systems are subject to certain technical limitations that may compromise the Company’s ability to meet its objectives. Some errors, bugs or vulnerabilities inherently may be difficult to detect and may only be discovered after the code has been released for external or internal use. Errors, bugs, vulnerabilities, design defects or technical limitations may be found within the Company’s software and hardware. Although the Company attempts to remedy any issues it observes in its vehicles and software as effectively and rapidly as possible, such efforts may not be timely, may hamper production or may not be to the satisfaction of the Company’s customers. Additionally, if the Company is able to deploy updates to the software addressing any issues, but such updates cannot or are not installed by its customers, such customers’ software will be subject to these vulnerabilities until they install such updates. If the Company is unable to prevent or effectively remedy errors, bugs, vulnerabilities or defects in its software and hardware, the Company may suffer damage to its reputation, loss of customers, loss of revenue or liability for damages, any of which may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

There are complex software and technology systems that need to be developed by the Company and in coordination with vendors and suppliers to reach production for its vehicles, and there can be no assurance such systems will be successfully developed or integrated.

 

The Company’s vehicles and operations will use a substantial amount of complex third-party and in-house software and hardware. The development and integration of such advanced technologies are inherently complex, and the Company will need to coordinate with its vendors and suppliers to reach production for its vehicles. Defects and errors may be revealed over time and the Company’s control over the performance of third-party services and systems may be limited. Thus, the Company’s potential inability to develop and integrate the necessary software and technology systems may harm its competitive position.

 

The Company relies on third-party suppliers to develop a number of emerging technologies for use in its products, including battery technology and the use of different battery cell chemistries. Certain of these technologies and chemistries are not today, and may not ever be, commercially viable. There can be no assurances that the Company’s suppliers will be able to meet the technological requirements, production timing, and volume requirements to support the Company’s business plan. In addition, the technology may not comply with the cost, performance useful life and warranty characteristics that are anticipated. As a result, the Company’s business plan could be significantly impacted, and the Company may incur significant liabilities under warranty claims which may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company’s industry and its technology are rapidly evolving and may be subject to unforeseen changes. Developments in alternative technologies or improvements in the internal combustion engine may materially and adversely affect the demand for its electric vehicles.

 

The Company will operate in the electric vehicle industry, which is rapidly evolving and may not develop as anticipated. The regulatory framework governing the industry is currently uncertain and may remain uncertain for the foreseeable future. As the industry in which the Company operates and the Company’s business develop, the Company may need to modify its business model or change its vehicles and services. These changes may be costly and may not achieve expected results, which could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Further, the Company may be unable to keep up with changes in electric vehicle technology or alternatives to electricity as a fuel source and, as a result, its competitiveness may suffer. The Company’s research and development efforts may not be sufficient to adapt to changes in electric vehicle technology. As technologies change, the Company plans to upgrade or adapt its vehicles and introduce new models in order to continue to provide vehicles with the latest technology, in particular safety technology and battery technology, which could involve substantial costs and lower its return on investment for existing vehicles. There can be no assurance that the Company will be able to compete effectively with alternative vehicles or source and integrate the latest technology into its vehicles, against the backdrop of the Company’s rapidly evolving industry. Even if the Company is able to keep pace with changes in technology and develop new models, the Company is subject to the risk that its prior models will become obsolete more quickly than expected, potentially reducing its return on investment.

 

Developments in alternative technologies, such as advanced diesel, ethanol, fuel cells or compressed natural gas, or improvements in the fuel economy of the internal combustion engine, may materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects in ways not currently anticipated. For example, relatively inexpensive fuel, such as compressed natural gas, may emerge as consumers’ preferred alternative to petroleum-based propulsion.

The Company may face challenges providing charging solutions.

 

Demand for the Company’s vehicles will depend in part on the availability of charging infrastructure. While the prevalence of charging stations has been increasing, charging station locations are significantly less widespread than gas stations. Some potential customers may choose not to purchase an electric vehicle because of the lack of a more widespread service network or charging infrastructure at the time of sale. Although the Company intends to offer the ability to use alternative current and direct current charging infrastructure, allowing customers to use existing charging infrastructure and standards to charge their motorcycles, the Company has very limited experience in the actual provision of charging solutions to customers and providing these services is subject to challenges, which include dependence on existing charging networks and installation providers in appropriate areas. The Company’s ability to generate customer loyalty and grow its business could be impaired by a lack of satisfactory access to charging infrastructure. To the extent the Company is unable to meet customer expectations or experiences difficulties in providing charging solutions, demand for its vehicles may suffer, and the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially and adversely affected.

 

If the Company were to pursue development of a proprietary charging solution, the Company would face significant challenges and barriers, including successfully navigating the complex logistics of rolling out a network and teams in appropriate areas, resolving issues related to inadequate capacity or overcapacity in certain areas, addressing security risks and risks of damage to vehicles, securing agreements with third-party providers to roll out and support a network of charging solutions in appropriate areas, obtaining any required permits and land use rights and filings, and providing sufficient financial resources to successfully roll out the proprietary charging solution, which could require diverting such resources from the Company’s other important business initiatives. In addition, the Company’s limited experience in providing charging solutions could contribute to additional unanticipated challenges that would hinder its ability to provide such solutions or make the provision of such solutions costlier than anticipated.

 

The range of the Company’s electric motorcycles on a single charge decline over time, which may negatively influence potential customers’ decisions whether to purchase its motorcycles.

 

The battery life and range of the Company’s motorcycles may vary or decline over time, like other vehicles that use current battery technology, including due to factors outside of the Company’s control. Factors such as rider behaviour, usage, speed, terrain, time and stress patterns may also impact the battery’s ability to hold a charge, which may decrease the Company’s motorcycles’ range before needing to recharge or could require the Company to limit vehicles’ battery charging capacity, including via over-the-air or other software updates, for safety reasons or to protect battery capacity, which could further decrease the Company’s vehicles’ range between charges. Such decreases in or limitations of battery capacity and therefore range, whether imposed by deterioration, software limitations or otherwise, could also lead to customer complaints or warranty claims, including claims that prior knowledge of such decreases or limitations would have affected customers’ purchasing decisions. In addition, the Company cannot guarantee that battery life and range deterioration will not be greater than what is currently anticipated, nor that the Company will be able to improve the performance of its battery packs, or increase its vehicles’ range, in the future. Any deterioration above the expected level could affect the Company’s reputation or could materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company’s vehicles make use of lithium-ion battery cells, which have been observed to catch fire or vent smoke and flame.

 

The battery packs that the Company produces make use of lithium-ion cells. On rare occasions, lithium-ion cells can rapidly release the energy they contain by venting smoke and flames in a manner that can ignite nearby materials as well as other lithium-ion cells. While the battery pack has been designed to passively contain any single cell’s release of energy without spreading to neighboring cells, a field or testing failure of the Company’s vehicles or other battery packs that it produces could occur, which could result in bodily injury or death and could subject the Company to lawsuits, product recalls, or redesign efforts, all of which would be time consuming and expensive. Also, negative public perceptions regarding the suitability of lithium-ion cells for automotive applications or any future incident involving lithium-ion cells such as a vehicle or other fire, even if such incident does not involve the Company’s vehicles, could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

- 44 -

 

 

In addition, once the Company begins mass manufacturing of its vehicles, it will be required to store a significant number of lithium-ion cells at its facilities. While safety procedures related to the handling of the cells have been implemented, any mishandling of battery cells, or safety issue or fire related to cells, may cause damage, injury and disruption to the operation of its facilities. Such damage or injury could lead to adverse publicity and potentially a safety recall.

 

The Company may be subject to risks associated with assisted driving technology.

 

The Company’s vehicles are being designed to offer some assisted driving functionality through the Company’s CoPilot ADAS, including forward crash warning functionalities. Through research and development, the Company plans to continue to update and improve its assisted driving technology. Assisted driving technologies are subject to risks and there have been accidents and fatalities associated with such technologies. The safety of such technologies depends in part on driver interactions, and drivers may not be accustomed to using or adapting to such technologies. To the extent accidents associated with the Company’s assisted driving systems occur, the Company could be subject to liability, negative publicity, government scrutiny, and further regulation. Moreover, any incidents related to assisted driving systems of the Company’s competitors could adversely affect the perceived safety and adoption of the Company’s vehicles and assisted driving technology more broadly. Any of the foregoing could materially and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Risks Related to Intellectual Property

 

The Company’s patent applications may not result in issued patents, which may have a material adverse effect on its ability to prevent others from interfering with the commercialization of the Company’s products.

 

The registration and enforcement of patents involves complex legal and factual questions, and the breadth and effectiveness of patented claims is uncertain. The Company cannot be certain that it is the first to file patent applications on the inventions it wishes to protect, nor can it be certain that its pending patent applications will result in issued patents or that any of its issued patents will afford sufficient protection against someone creating competing products, or as a defensive portfolio against a competitor who claims that the Company is infringing such competitor’s patents. In addition, patent applications filed in foreign countries are subject to laws, rules and procedures that may differ from those of applicable in Canada or the U.S., and thus there is no certainty that foreign patent applications, if any, will result in issued patents in those foreign jurisdictions or that such patents can be effectively enforced, even if they relate to patents issued in Canada or the U.S.

 

The Company may need to defend itself against patent or trademark infringement claims, which may be time-consuming and would cause the Company to incur substantial costs.

 

Companies, organizations or individuals, including the Company’s competitors, may hold or obtain patents, trademarks or other proprietary rights that would prevent, limit or interfere with the Company’s ability to make, use, develop, sell or market its motorcycles or components, which could make it more difficult for Damon to operate its business. From time-to-time, the Company may receive communications from third parties that allege its products are covered by their patents or trademarks or other intellectual property rights. Companies holding patents or other intellectual property rights may bring suits alleging infringement of such rights or otherwise assert their rights.

 

In addition, various “non-practicing entities” that own patents and other intellectual property rights often attempt to aggressively assert their rights in order to extract value from technology companies. Furthermore, from time-to-time the Company may introduce or acquire new products and services, including in areas where Damon historically has not competed, which could increase the Company’s exposure to patent and other intellectual property claims from competitors and non-practicing entities.

 

- 45 -

 

 

The Company may receive notice letters from patent holders alleging that certain of its products and services infringe their patent rights. Defending patent and other intellectual property litigation is costly and can impose a significant burden on management and employees, and there can be no assurances that favourable final outcomes will be obtained in all cases. In addition, plaintiffs may seek, and the Company may become subject to, preliminary or provisional rulings in the course of any such litigation, including potential preliminary injunctions requiring the Company to cease some or all of its operations. The Company may decide to settle such lawsuits and disputes on terms that are unfavorable to it. Similarly, if any litigation to which the Company is a party is resolved adversely, the Company may be subject to an unfavorable judgment that may not be reversed upon appeal. The terms of such a settlement or judgment may require the Company to cease some or all of its operations or pay substantial amounts to the other party. In addition, the Company may have to seek a license to continue practices found to be in violation of a third party’s rights, which may not be available on reasonable terms, or at all, and may significantly increase the Company’s operating costs and expenses. As a result, the Company may also be required to develop alternative non-infringing technology or practices or discontinue the practices. The development of alternative non-infringing technology or practices could require significant effort and expense or may not be feasible. The Company’s business, financial condition, and results of operations could be adversely affected as a result of an unfavorable resolution of the disputes and litigation referred to above.

 

If the Company is determined to have infringed upon a third party’s intellectual property rights, the Company may be required to do things that include one or more of the following:

 

cease making, using, selling or offering to sell processes, goods or services that incorporate or use the third-party intellectual property;

 

pay substantial damages;

 

seek a license from the holder of the infringed intellectual property right, which license may not be available on reasonable terms or at all;

 

redesign its motorcycles or other goods or services to avoid infringing the third-party intellectual property; or

 

establish and maintain alternative branding for its products and services.

 

In the event of a successful claim of infringement against the Company and its failure or inability to obtain a license to the infringed technology or other intellectual property right, its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects may be materially adversely affected. In addition, any litigation or claims, whether or not valid, could result in substantial costs, negative publicity and diversion of resources and management attention.

 

Risks Related to Regulation and Taxation

 

Our international business exposes us to geo-political and economic factors, legal and regulatory requirements, public health and other risks associated with doing business in foreign countries.

 

We currently provide, and plan to continue providing, our products and services to customers internationally. These risks differ from and potentially may be greater than those associated with our domestic business.

 

Our international business is sensitive to changes in the priorities and budgets of international customers and geo-political uncertainties, which may be driven by changes in threat environments and potentially volatile worldwide economic conditions, various regional and local economic and political factors, risks and uncertainties, as well as Canadian, U.S., and UK foreign policy.

 

- 46 -

 

 

Our international sales are also subject to local government laws, regulations and procurement policies and practices, which may differ from the UK Government regulations, including regulations relating to import-export control, investments, foreign exchange controls and repatriation of earnings, as well as to varying currency, geo-political and economic risks. Our international contracts may include industrial cooperation agreements requiring specific in- country purchases, manufacturing agreements or financial support obligations, known as offset obligations, and provide for penalties if we fail to meet such requirements. Our international contracts may also be subject to termination at the customer’s convenience or for default based on performance, and may be subject to funding risks. We also are exposed to risks associated with using foreign representatives and consultants for international sales and operations and teaming with international subcontractors, partners and suppliers in connection with international programs. As a result of these factors, we could experience award and funding delays on international programs and could incur losses on such programs, which could negatively affect our results of operations and financial condition.

 

We are also subject to a number of other risks including:

 

the absence in some jurisdictions of effective laws to protect our intellectual property rights;

 

multiple and possibly overlapping and conflicting tax laws;

 

restrictions on movement of cash;

 

the burdens of complying with a variety of national and local laws;

 

political instability;

 

currency fluctuations;

 

longer payment cycles;

 

restrictions on the import and export of certain technologies;

 

price controls or restrictions on exchange of foreign currencies; and

 

trade barriers.

 

In addition, our international operations (or those of our business partners) could be subject to natural disasters such as earthquakes, tsunamis, flooding, typhoons and volcanic eruptions that disrupt manufacturing or other operations. There may be conflict or uncertainty in the countries in which we operate, including public health issues (for example, an outbreak of a contagious disease such as 2019-Novel Coronavirus (2019-nCoV), avian influenza, measles or Ebola), safety issues, natural disasters, fire, disruptions of service from utilities, nuclear power plant accidents or general economic or political factors. For example, as a result of the Coronavirus outbreak, our ability to source internal connection cables for certain of our sensors has been delayed, which will require us to source these components from other vendors at a higher price that may result in an increase in our costs to produce our products In the event our customers are materially impacted by these events, it may impact anticipated orders and planned shipments for our products. With respect to political factors, the United Kingdom’s 2016 referendum, commonly referred to as “Brexit,” has created economic and political uncertainty in the European Union. Also, the European Union’s General Data Protection Regulation imposes significant new requirements on how we collect, process and transfer personal data, as well as significant fines for non-compliance. Any of the above risks, should they occur, could result in an increase in the cost of components, production delays, general business interruptions, delays from difficulties in obtaining export licenses for certain technology, tariffs and other barriers and restrictions, longer payment cycles, increased taxes, restrictions on the repatriation of funds and the burdens of complying with a variety of foreign laws, any of which could ultimately have a material adverse effect on our business.

 

The lack of availability, reduction or elimination of government and economic incentives or government policies which are favorable for electric vehicles and Canadian produced vehicles could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Any reduction, elimination or discriminatory application of government subsidies and economic incentives because of policy changes, the reduced need for such subsidies and incentives due to the perceived success of electric motorcycles, fiscal tightening or other reasons may result in the diminished competitiveness of the alternative fuel motorcycle industry generally or the Company’s electric motorcycles or other personal mobility products in particular. This could materially adversely affect the growth of the alternative fuel motorcycle markets and the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

- 47 -

 

 

The Company’s vehicles also benefit from government policies including tariffs on imported motorcycles to both Europe and the U.S. However, trade dynamics can change quickly between regions, and this advantage could become a disadvantage with new regulations or duties. Additionally, the amount of subsidies provided for purchasers of certain new energy motorcycles in various regions (both at national and local levels) could be reduced in the future, increasing the net cost experienced by customers. These policies are subject to change and are beyond the Company’s control. There is no assurance that any changes would be favourable to the Company’s business. Any of the foregoing could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company’s business could be adversely affected by trade tariffs or other trade barriers.

 

The Company initially plans to potentially build Damon motorcycles in the US and/or Europe and will be shipping those motorcycles globally. It is not clear what impact changes to tariffs may have or what actions other governments may take in the future. In the future, tariffs could potentially impact the Company’s raw material prices. In addition, changes in tariffs could have a material adverse effect on global economic conditions and the stability of global financial markets. Any of these factors could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The construction and operation of one or more potential assembly facilities that the Company may seek to establish in the future, are or will be subject to regulatory approvals, and may be subject to delays, cost overruns or may not produce expected benefits.

 

The Company’s establishment of one or more potential manufacturing facilities could be subject to broad and strict government supervision and approval procedures, including, but not limited to, the project approvals and filings, construction land and project planning approval, environment protection approval, pollution discharge permits, work safety approvals, fire protection approvals, and the completion of inspection and acceptance by relevant authorities. As a result, the Company may be subject to administrative uncertainty regarding the construction within a specified time frame, fines or the suspension of work. The Company may face similar challenges with respect to any additional facilities it seeks to establish in the future to scale manufacturing capacity or otherwise. Any of the foregoing may have a material adverse impact on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results or prospects.

 

The Company’s vehicles are subject to motor vehicle standards and the failure to satisfy such mandated safety standards would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

All vehicles sold must comply with various standards of the market where the vehicles were sold. Rigorous testing and the use of approved materials and equipment are among the requirements for achieving such standards. Vehicles must pass various tests and undergo a certification process, before receiving delivery from the factory, being sold, or being used in any commercial activity, and such certification is also subject to periodic renewal. The Company expects to begin the process of obtaining certifications for the HyperSport in 2025/2026. If the Company’s certification efforts fail, or a certified vehicle has a defect resulting in quality or safety accidents, or consistent failure of compliance with certification requirements is discovered, the approval can be withheld, suspended or even revoked. With effect from the date of revocation or during suspension of certification, any vehicle that fails to satisfy the requirements for certification may not continue to be delivered, sold, exported or used in any commercial activity. Failure by the Company to have the HyperSport or any future model electric vehicle satisfy motor vehicle standards would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

- 48 -

 

 

The Company is subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws, and noncompliance with such laws can subject the Company to administrative, civil and criminal fines and penalties, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, results of operations, financial condition and reputation.

 

The Company is subject to anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws and regulations in various jurisdictions in which the Company conducts activities, including the United States Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (“FCPA”), the Corruption of Foreign Public Officials Act (Canada) (“CFPOA”), the UK Bribery Act 2010 and other similar anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions, laws and regulations. The FCPA, the CFPOA and the UK Bribery Act 2010 prohibit the Company and its officers, directors, employees and business partners acting on the Company’s behalf, including agents, from corruptly offering, promising, authorizing or providing anything of value to a “foreign official” for the purposes of influencing official decisions or obtaining or retaining business or otherwise obtaining favorable treatment. The FCPA also requires companies to make and keep books, records and accounts that accurately reflect transactions and dispositions of assets and to maintain a system of adequate internal accounting controls. The UK Bribery Act also prohibits non-governmental “commercial” bribery and soliciting or accepting bribes. A violation of these laws or regulations could harm the Damon brand and adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company has direct or indirect interactions with officials and employees of government agencies and state-owned affiliated entities in the ordinary course of business. These interactions subject the Company to an increased level of compliance-related concerns. The Company is in the process of implementing policies and procedures designed to ensure compliance by it and its directors, officers, employees, representatives, consultants, agents and business partners with applicable anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering, financial and economic sanctions and similar laws and regulations. However, the Company’s policies and procedures may not be sufficient, and its directors, officers, employees, representatives, consultants, agents, and business partners could engage in improper conduct for which the Company may be held responsible.

 

Non-compliance with anti-corruption, anti-bribery, anti-money laundering or financial and economic sanctions laws and regulations could subject the Company to whistleblower complaints, adverse media coverage, investigations, and severe administrative, civil and criminal sanctions, collateral consequences, remedial measures and legal expenses, all of which could harm the Damon brand and materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. In addition, changes in economic sanctions laws in the future could adversely impact the Company’s business and investments in the Company s securities.

 

The Company is subject to numerous environmental, health and safety laws and any breach of such laws may have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company is subject to numerous environmental, health and safety laws, including statutes, regulations, bylaws and other legal requirements. These laws relate to the generation, use, handling, storage, transportation and disposal of regulated substances, including hazardous substances (such as batteries), dangerous goods and waste, emissions or discharges into soil, water and air, including noise and odors (which could result in remediation obligations), and occupational health and safety matters, including indoor air quality. These legal requirements vary by location and can arise under federal, provincial, state or municipal laws. Any breach of such laws, regulations, directives or requirements would have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company may be adversely affected by the complexity, uncertainties and changes in automotive or internet related Canadian regulations or similar regulations of any countries it is selling motorcycles into.

 

The Company operates in the motorcycle and internet industry, both of which are extensively regulated by various governments. Regulations on vehicle homologation requirements may change over time, and potentially diverge in various regions, driving the need for increased vehicle variants, or discontinuation (temporary or permanent) of existing vehicle models.

In addition, the Company’s mobile applications are also regulated by various regulations, for example there are regulations related to the collection and sharing of data. If the Company’s mobile applications were found to be violating the regulations, the Company may be subject to administrative penalties, including warning, service suspension or removal of the Company’s mobile applications from the relevant mobile application store, which may materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Risks Related to Cybersecurity and Privacy

 

The Company’s inability to leverage vehicle and customer data could impact the servicing of its products, its software algorithms and impact research and development.

 

The Company will rely on data collected from the use of its vehicles, including vehicle data and data related to battery usage statistics. The Company will use this data in connection with the servicing and normal course software updates of its products, its software algorithms and the research, development and analysis of its motorcycles. The Company’s inability to obtain this data or the necessary rights to use this data or the Company’s inability to properly analyze or use this data could result in the Company’s inability to adequately service its vehicles or delay or otherwise negatively impact its research and development efforts. Any of the foregoing could materially adversely affect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Failure of information security and privacy concerns could subject the Company to penalties, damage its reputation and brand, and harm its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company faces significant challenges with respect to information security and privacy, including the storage, transmission and sharing of confidential information. The Company collects, transmits and stores confidential and private information of its customers, such as personal information, including names, accounts, user IDs and passwords, and payment or transaction related information. In certain jurisdictions, the Company is also subject to certain laws and regulations, such as “Right to Repair” laws, which require the Company to provide third-party access to its network or vehicle systems.

 

The Company is required by the laws of its various operating regions to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, availability and authenticity of the information of its customers and suppliers, which is also essential to maintaining their confidence in its vehicles and services. The Company intends to implement strict information security policies and deploy advanced measures to implement the policies, including, among others, advanced encryption technologies. However, advances in technology, an increased level of sophistication and diversity of the Company’s vehicles and services, an increased level of expertise of hackers, new discoveries in the field of cryptography or others can still result in a compromise or breach of the measures that are used by the Company. If the Company is unable to protect its systems, and hence the information stored in its systems, from unauthorized access, use, disclosure, disruption, modification or destruction, such problems or security breaches could cause a loss, give rise to the Company’s liabilities to the owners of confidential information or even subject the Company to fines and penalties. In addition, complying with various laws and regulations could cause Company to incur substantial costs or require Company to change its business practices, including its data practices, in a manner adverse to its business.

 

Any unauthorized control or manipulation of the Company’s vehicles’ systems could result in loss of confidence in the Company and its vehicles and harm its business.

 

The Company’s vehicles contain complex information technology systems and built-in data connectivity to accept and install periodic remote updates to improve or update functionality. The Company has designed, implemented and tested security measures intended to prevent unauthorized access to its information technology networks and its vehicles and related systems. However, hackers may attempt to gain unauthorized access to modify, alter and use such networks, vehicles and systems to gain control of or to change Company’s solutions’ functionality, user interface and performance characteristics, or to gain access to data stored in or generated by the vehicles. Future vulnerabilities could be identified and Company’s efforts to remediate such vulnerabilities may not be successful. Any unauthorized access to or control of Company’s vehicles, or any loss of customer data, could result in legal claims or proceedings and remediation of such problems could result in significant, unplanned capital expenditures. In addition, regardless of their veracity, reports of unauthorized access to its technology systems or data, as well as other factors that may result in the perception that Company’s vehicles, technology systems or data are capable of being “hacked,” could materially adversely affect Company’s brand and its business, financial conditions, operating results and prospects.

The Company is subject to information technology and cybersecurity risks to operational systems, security systems, infrastructure, integrated software in its motorcycles and customer data processed by it, and any material failure, weakness, interruption, cyber event, incident or breach of security could prevent the Company from effectively operating its business, harm its reputation or materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

The Company is at risk for interruptions, outages and breaches of: (i) operational systems, including business, financial, accounting, product development, data processing or production processes, owned by it or its third-party vendors or suppliers; (ii) facility security systems, owned by it or its third-party vendors or suppliers; (iii) transmission control modules or other in-product technology, owned by it or its third-party vendors or suppliers; (iv) the integrated software in Company’s vehicles; or (v) customer or driver data that Company processes or Company’s third-party vendors or suppliers process on its behalf. Such cyber incidents could materially disrupt operational systems; result in loss of intellectual property, trade secrets or other proprietary or competitively sensitive information; compromise certain information of customers, employees, suppliers or others; jeopardize the security of the Company’s facilities; or affect the performance of transmission control modules or other in-product technology and the integrated software in the Company’s vehicles. A cyber incident could be caused by disasters, insiders (through inadvertence or with malicious intent) or malicious third parties (including nation-states or nation-state supported actors) using sophisticated, targeted methods to circumvent firewalls, encryption and other security defenses, including hacking, fraud, trickery, social engineering or other forms of deception. The techniques used by cyber attackers change frequently and may be difficult to detect for long periods of time.

 

Although the Company maintains information technology measures designed to protect it against intellectual property theft, data breaches and other cyber incidents, such measures will require updates and improvements, and there is no guarantee that such measures will be adequate to detect, prevent or mitigate cyber incidents. Any implementation, maintenance, segregation and improvement of the Company’s systems may require significant management time, support and cost. Moreover, there are inherent risks associated with developing, improving, expanding and updating current systems, including the disruption of the Company’s data management, procurement, production execution, finance, supply chain and sales and service processes. These risks may affect the Company’s ability to manage its data and inventory, procure parts or supplies or produce, sell, deliver and service its vehicles, adequately protect its intellectual property or achieve and maintain compliance with, or realize available benefits under, applicable laws, regulations and contracts. The Company cannot be sure that these systems upon which it relies, including those of its third-party vendors or suppliers, will be effectively implemented, maintained or expanded as planned. If the Company does not successfully implement, maintain or expand these systems as planned, its operations may be disrupted, the Company’s ability to accurately and timely report its financial results could be impaired, and deficiencies may arise in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which may impact the Company’s ability to certify its financial results. Moreover, the Company’s proprietary information or intellectual property could be compromised or misappropriated, and its reputation may be adversely affected. If these systems do not operate as expected, Damon may be required to expend significant resources to make corrections or find alternative sources for performing these functions.

 

A significant cyber incident could impact the Company’s manufacturing capacity or production capability, harm its reputation, cause the Company to breach its contractual arrangements with other parties or subject Damon to regulatory actions or litigation, any of which could materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results or prospects. In addition, the Company’s insurance coverage for cyberattacks may not be sufficient to cover all the losses it may experience as a result of a cyber incident.

The Company also collects, uses, discloses, stores, transmits and otherwise processes customer and employee and others’ data as part of its business and operations, which may include personal data or confidential or proprietary information. The Company uses its vehicles’ electronic systems to log information about each vehicle’s use, such as charge time, battery usage, mileage and rider behavior, in order to aid it in vehicle diagnostics, repair and maintenance, as well as to help it customize and optimize the riding experience. The Company’s users may object to the use of this data, which may harm the Company’s business. The Company also works with partners and third-party service providers or vendors that may in the course of their business relationship with the Company collect, store and process such data on the Company’s behalf and in connection with Damon’s vehicles and services. There can be no assurance that any security measures that Damon or its third-party service providers, vendors, or suppliers have implemented will be effective against current or future security threats. While the Company has developed systems and processes designed to protect the availability, integrity, confidentiality and security of the Company’s, the Company’s customers’, and employees’ and others’ data, such security measures or those of its third-party service providers, vendors or suppliers could fail and result in unauthorized access to or disclosure, acquisition, encryption, modification, misuse, loss, destruction or other compromise of such data. If a compromise of such data were to occur, the Company may become liable under its contracts with other parties and under applicable law for damages and incur penalties and other costs to respond to, investigate and remedy such an incident. Laws in all 50 states of the U.S., in Canada and in Europe require the Company to provide notice to individuals, customers, regulators, credit reporting agencies and others when certain sensitive information has been compromised as a result of a security breach or where a security breach creates a real risk of significant harm to an individual. Such laws are inconsistent and compliance if there is a widespread data breach could be costly. Depending on the facts and circumstances of such an incident, these damages, penalties, fines and costs could be significant. Any such event could harm the Company’s reputation and result in litigation against it, or otherwise materially adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Risks Related to Litigation, Product Warranty and Recalls

 

Adverse judgments or settlements in legal proceedings, including the claim brought by Jay Giraud or those that may arise relating to the Business Combination, could materially harm our business, financial condition, operating results, and cash flows.

 

We may be a party to claims that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of our business, which may include those related to, for example, contracts, sub-contracts, protection of confidential information or trade secrets, adversary proceedings arising from customer bankruptcies, employment of our workforce and immigration requirements, or compliance with any of a wide array of state and federal statutes, rules, and regulations that pertain to different aspects of our business. In addition, we may deem it advisable to initiate expensive litigation to protect our business interests. We also face litigation risk related to the Business Combination. Business combinations often give rise to claims and legal proceedings, including shareholder lawsuits. Any shareholder claims or lawsuits alleging inadequate disclosure, breach of fiduciary duty, adequacy of consideration or other claims in connection with the Business Combination could lead to costly litigation and diversion of management’s time and attention from our business.

 

For example, on March 7, 2025, we were served with a civil claim in the Supreme Court of British Columbia by a former director and CEO, alleging, among other things, that the Company and its Board of Directors failed to honor agreed-upon settlement terms related to his resignation. Please refer to the disclosure under “Business – Legal Proceedings” for details regarding this proceeding. While we deny the allegations, there is no guarantee that we will prevail in this matter, that additional claims will not arise, or that this or other litigation will not result in substantial costs, penalties, or other liabilities that could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, or results of operations.

 

Furthermore, while we maintain insurance for certain potential liabilities, such insurance does not cover all types and amounts of potential liabilities and is subject to various exclusions as well as deductibles and caps on amounts of coverage. Even if we believe a claim is covered by insurance, insurers may dispute our entitlement to coverage for a variety of potential reasons, which may affect the timing and, if the insurers prevail, the amount of our available insurance coverage for a particular claim.

 

There is a risk that we will not be successful or otherwise be able to satisfactorily resolve any such claims or litigation. In addition, litigation and other legal claims are subject to inherent uncertainties. Those uncertainties include, but are not limited to, litigation costs and attorneys’ fees, unpredictable judicial or jury decisions, and the differing laws and judicial proclivities regarding damage awards among the jurisdictions in which we operate. Unexpected outcomes in such legal proceedings, or changes in management’s evaluation or predictions of the likely outcomes of such proceedings (possibly resulting in changes in established reserves), could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows.

The Company may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm the Company’s financial condition and liquidity if it is not able to successfully defend or insure against such claims.

 

The Company may become subject to product liability claims, which could harm the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. The motorcycle industry experiences significant product liability claims and the Company faces inherent risk of exposure to claims if its motorcycles do not perform as expected or malfunction resulting in personal injury or death. The Company’s risks in this area are particularly pronounced given the limited field experience of its motorcycles. A successful product liability claim against the Company could require it to pay a substantial monetary award. Moreover, a product liability claim could generate substantial negative publicity about the Company’s motorcycles, other personal mobility products and its business in general and inhibit or prevent commercialization of other future motorcycle candidates which could harm the Damon brand and have a material and adverse effect the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. The Company plans to seek adequate product liability insurance for all its motorcycles, but any such insurance might not be sufficient to cover all potential product liability claims and may not be available on terms satisfactory to the Company. Any lawsuit seeking significant monetary damages either in excess of such liability coverage, or outside of such liability coverage, may harm the Damon brand and have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects. The Company may not be able to secure additional product liability insurance coverage on commercially acceptable terms or at reasonable costs when needed, particularly if it faces liability for its products and is forced to make a claim under its product liability insurance policy(ies).

 

The Company’s warranty reserves may be insufficient to cover future warranty claims which could adversely affect its business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

As the Company’s vehicles enter production, the Company will need to maintain warranty reserves to cover warranty-related claims. If the Company’s warranty reserves are inadequate to cover future warranty claims on its vehicles, the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects could be materially and adversely affected. The Company expects to record and adjust warranty reserves based on changes in estimated costs and actual warranty costs. However, the Company has limited operating experience with its vehicles, and therefore no experience with warranty claims for these vehicles or with estimating warranty reserves, which renders necessary reserves hard to predict. In the future, the Company may become subject to significant and unexpected warranty expenses. There can be no assurances that then-existing warranty reserves will be sufficient to cover all claims.

 

The Company may be compelled to undertake product recalls or take other actions, which could adversely affect its brand image and financial performance.

 

If the Company’s vehicles are subject to recalls in the future, the Company may be subject to adverse publicity, damage to its brand and liability for costs. In the future, the Company may at various times, voluntarily or involuntarily, initiate a recall if any of its vehicles, including any systems or parts sourced from its suppliers, prove to be defective or noncompliant with applicable laws and regulations. Such recalls, whether voluntary or involuntary or caused by systems or components engineered or manufactured by the Company or its suppliers, could involve significant expense and could materially adversely affect the Damon brand image in the target markets of the Company, as well as the Company’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Damon Motors was previously involved in a dispute with the lessor of Damon Motors’ former manufacturing facility in Surrey, British Columbia, which has since been settled.

 

In April 2023, Damon Motors received a notice of default from a property management company related to Damon Motors’ lease of a facility in Surrey, British Columbia. The notice of default asserts a breach of the lease and seeks approximately CAD$4.1 million in damages, in addition to accruing interest and other costs. Damon Motors executed a settlement agreement effective on June 30, 2023, whereby it subsequently settled the amount owing with an issuance of convertible notes and instalments of cash payments. Should Damon Motors default under the terms of the settlement agreement, Damon Motors could be forced to pay a substantial monetary sum to the property management company and may also suffer reputational or other harm.

 

Damon Motors was in compliance with the settlement and has agreed with the lessor to extend the terms of the agreement on any further payments as follows: (a) 1/3 of the remaining settlement amount on or before the date that is 30 days following completion of the Business Combination; (b) 1/3 of the remaining settlement amount on or before the date that is 60 days following completion of the Business Combination; and (c) 1/3 of the remaining settlement amount on or before the date that is 90 days following completion of the Business Combination. Damon Motors has not yet made any of the three scheduled payments under the agreement. The parties are negotiating ways to mitigate damages to the lessor and reduce Damon Motors’ liability; however, there is no guarantee that a resolution will be reached soon or at all.

Total use of net proceeds  $6,441,750   $13,594,500   $20,747,250   $27,900,000 

 

We intend to use the net proceeds from this Offering for working capital and general corporate purposes, including research and development, as well as marketing and sales of our products. Additionally, unless otherwise waived, we expect to use 15% of the net proceeds from this Offering to pay towards the outstanding balance of the Streeterville Note, as required in accordance with the terms of such Note. As of July 21, 2025, the total outstanding balance under the Streeterville June 2024 Note consists of $4,491,700 in principal and $668,527 in accrued interest. Please refer to the section “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations – Recent Transactions – Second Amendment to June 2024 Secured Promissory Note” herein for a more detailed discussion of the terms of the Streeterville Note.

 

The foregoing represents our current intentions to use and allocate the net proceeds of this Offering based upon our present plans and business conditions. Our management, however, will have broad discretion in the way that we use the net proceeds of this Offering. Pending the final application of the net proceeds of this Offering, we intend to invest the net proceeds of this Offering in short-term, interest-bearing, investment-grade securities. See “Risk Factors” herein for more information.

 

We believe that the expected net proceeds from this Offering and our existing cash and cash equivalents, will be sufficient to fund our operations for at least the next 12 months, although we cannot assure you that this will occur.

DIVIDEND POLICY

 

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our Common Shares. We currently intend to retain all available funds and any future earnings for use in the operation of our business and do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the near future. We may also enter into credit agreements or other borrowing arrangements in the future that will restrict our ability to declare or pay cash dividends. Any future determination to declare dividends will be made at the discretion of our board of directors and will depend on our financial condition, operating results, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, general business conditions and other factors that our board of directors may deem relevant. See “Risk Factors — We do not intend to pay cash dividends to our shareholders” herein for more information.

 

Market INFORMATION

 

Our Common Shares are traded on the OTCID Basic Market under the symbol “DMNIF”, however, as a result of our recent reverse stock split effective on July 3, 2025, our current trading symbol is “DMNID” until August 1, 2025, when our symbol will revert to “DMNIF.” As of the date of this filing, there were approximately 339 holders of record of our Common Shares. This includes Cede & Co., which holds shares on behalf of the beneficial owners of the Company’s Common Shares. Because brokers and other institutions hold many of our shares on behalf of shareholders, we are unable to estimate the total number of shareholders represented by these record holders.

The above discussion is based on 4,030,131 (pre-reverse stock split - 503,766,493)   Common Shares issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2025, and excludes, as of that date, the following:

 

  10,642 (pre-reverse stock split - 1,330,250) Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, with a weighted average exercise price of $194 per Common Share, under our 2024 Stock Incentive Plan;

 

  17,492 (pre-reverse stock split - 2,186,478) Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, with a weighted average exercise price of $976 per Common Share;

 

  14,587,827 (pre-reverse stock split - 1,823,478,340)  Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding Series A Warrants, as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations – Recent Transactions – Completion of Registered Underwritten Offering”;

 

  985,876 (pre-reverse stock split - 123,234,561) Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding Underwriter’s Warrants, as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations – Recent Transactions – Completion of Registered Underwritten Offering”;

 

  an indeterminate number of Common Share issuable under the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, subject to the market price at the closing of each pre-paid purchase and other terms and conditions of the agreement, as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations – Recent Transactions – Amendments to December 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement”; and

 

  up to approximately 51,602,270 Common Share issuable upon conversion of the Streeterville Note, as amended, including the outstanding principal as of March 31, 2025 and interest accrued through maturity, subject to further increase if the floor price is adjusted as permitted under its terms.

 

Dilution

 

Investors will incur immediate dilution in the net tangible book value of their Common Shares. Net tangible book value per share is calculated by subtracting our total liabilities from our total tangible assets and dividing the result by the number of outstanding Common Shares.

 

Our net tangible book value is determined by dividing our total tangible assets, less total liabilities, by the number of our Common Shares outstanding as of March 31, 2025. Our net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025, was negative $20,507,457 or negative $5.09 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.04) per Common Share. Dilution in net tangible book value per share represents the difference between the amount per share paid by purchasers of Common Shares in this Offering and the net tangible book value per share of our Common Shares immediately after this Offering. On a pro forma basis, giving effect to the issuance of an aggregate of 15,573,684 (pre-reverse stock split - 1,946,710,549) Common Shares after March 31, 2025 and as of the date of this filing, in connection with shares issued upon exercise of the Series A Warrants, our historical net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025 would have been negative $20,507,457, or negative $1.05 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.008) per Common Share.

 

Offering price per Common Share:       $0.10 
Historical net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025:  $(20,507,457)     
As-adjusted net tangible book value as of March 31, 2025:  $7,392,543      
Increase in as-adjusted net tangible book value after this Offering:  $27,900,000      
As-adjusted, pro forma net tangible book value per Common Share after this Offering:  $0.02      
Dilution per Common Share to investors in this Offering:       $0.08

The following table illustrates the approximate per share dilution to new investors discussed above, assuming the sale of respectively, 100%, 75%, 50% and 25% of the Common Shares offered for sale in this Offering (after deducting our estimated offering expenses $711,000 and DealMaker commissions of $1,377,000 being proportionately reduced for 75%, 50% and 25% of the Common Shares offered for sale in this Offering):

 

Funding Level  100% of Raise   75% of Raise   50% of Raise   25% of Raise 
Proceeds to Company  $27,900,000   $20,747,250   $13,594,500   $6,441,750 
Offering Price per Common Share  $0.10   $0.10   $0.10   $0.10

Increase in net tangible book value per Common Share attributable to this Offering  $5.113   $5.091   $5.05   $4.94 
As adjusted net tangible book value per Common Share after this Offering  $0.023   $0.001   $(0.04)  $(0.15)
Dilution per Common Share to new investors in this Offering  $0.077   $0.099   $0.14   $0.25 

 

The above discussion is based on 4,030,131 (pre-reverse stock split - 503,766,493)   Common Shares issued and outstanding as of March 31, 2025, and excludes, as of that date, the following:

 

  10,642 (pre-reverse stock split -1,330,250) Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding stock options, with a weighted average exercise price of $194 per Common Share, under our Stock Incentive Plan;

 

  17,492 (pre-reverse stock split -2,186,478) Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding warrants, with a weighted average exercise price of $976 per Common Share;

 

  14,587,827 (pre-reverse stock split - 1,823,478,340)  Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding Series A Warrants, as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations – Recent Transactions – Completion of Registered Underwritten Offering”;

 

  985,876 (pre-reverse stock split - 123,234,561) Common Shares issuable upon exercise of outstanding Underwriter’s Warrants, as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations – Recent Transactions – Completion of Registered Underwritten Offering”;

 

  an indeterminate number of Common Share issuable under the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, subject to the market price at the closing of each pre-paid purchase and other terms and conditions of the agreement, as described in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Conditions and Results of Operations – Recent Transactions – Amendments to December 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement”; and

To the extent that convertible and exercisable securities discussed above have been or may be converted or exercised or we issue other Common Shares or securities convertible or exercisable into Common Shares, investors purchasing Common Shares in this Offering may experience further dilution. In addition, we may seek to raise additional capital in the future through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities. To the extent we raise additional capital through the sale of equity or convertible debt securities, the issuance of such securities could result in further dilution to our shareholders.

In connection with the close of the Business Combination, Streeterville will pay an aggregate amount of $5,000,000 in consideration for the Promissory Note of which $3,500,000 was initially sent to an escrow account.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED AND CONSOLIDATED

 

FINANCIAL INFORMATION

 

Note 1. Basis of Presentation

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial information does not give effect to any anticipated synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings, or cost savings that may be associated with the spin-off and the Business Combination. The unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the spin-off and the Business Combination and related transactions 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 Legacy Damon and Legacy Grafiti.

 

Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined and Consolidated Statements of Operations

 

The historical financial information of Damon was derived from the unaudited financial statements of Damon Inc. for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, and the audited consolidated financial statements of Legacy Damon for the year ended June 30, 2024, included elsewhere in this Offering Circular. The historical financial information of Damon for the nine months ended March 31, 2025, reflects Legacy Damon’s activity for the period from July 1, 2024 to November 12, 2024, and the combined Company’s activity from November 13, 2024 to March 31, 2025. The historical financial information of Grafiti for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 is adjusted for acquisition of Legacy Grafiti and consists of Legacy Grafiti’s activity for the period July 1, 2024 to November 12, 2024 derived from Legacy Grafiti’s historical books and records. The historical financial information of Legacy Grafiti for the year ended June 30, 2024, consists of the carve-out financial statements of Grafiti UK, as Legacy Grafiti was the parent non-operating holding company of Grafiti UK and the operations of Grafiti following the carve-out from XTI on December 27, 2023, and was derived from the audited financial statements of Legacy Grafiti for the year ended June 30, 2024, included elsewhere in this Offering Circular.

 

Note 2. Accounting Policies

 

Following the consummation of the Business Combination, management performed a comprehensive review of the two entities’ accounting policies. As a result of the review, management did not identify any differences that would have a material impact on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial information. As a result, the unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial information does not assume any differences in accounting policies.

 

Note 3. Estimated Purchase Price Consideration

 

Estimated purchase price of $11,123,075 related to the Business Combination is comprised of the following components:

 

Equity consideration  $11,123,075 
Total consideration  $11,123,075 

 

The estimated fair value of common stock of $11,123,075 included in the total equity consideration is based on 4,615,384 shares of common stock of the post-merger Damon Inc. common stock. The fair value of each share was determined to be $2.41, which was the closing price after one day of trading on November 18, 2024 of the combined company (Damon Inc.). Management notes that the closing price after one day of trading was determined to be the level 1 input for fair market value since the listing agent determined the beginning of day share price at $4 per share and active trading on Nasdaq resulted in the observable market participant impact to result in $2.41 per share.

 

The Business Combination is considered a reverse acquisition. As such, the acquisition-date fair value of the consideration transferred is calculated based on the number of equity interests Damon would have had to issue to shareholders of Grafiti to obtain the same ownership interest in Pubco. Any excess of the consideration transferred was allocated to goodwill.

The transaction accounting adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated statement of operations for the year ended June 30, 2024 and for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 are as follows:

Note 5 Net Loss per Share

 

Net loss per share was calculated using the historical weighted average shares outstanding, and the issuance of additional shares in connection with the Business Combination and the related transactions, assuming the shares were outstanding since July 1, 2023. As the Business Combination and the related transactions are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the earliest period 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 and related transactions have been outstanding for the entirety of all periods presented.

 

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined and consolidated financial information has been prepared for the nine months ended March 31, 2025 and for the year ended June 30, 2024:

 

   Nine Months
Ended
March 31,
2025(1)
   Year

Pro forma net loss  $(38,442,025)  $(15,929,472)
Weighted average shares outstanding - basic and diluted   244,772    163,508 
Pro forma net loss per share - basic and diluted  $(157,05)  $(97.42)
Excluded securities:(2)(3)          
Options   10,642    15,586 
Warrants   950,001    9,530 

 

(1) Pro forma net loss per share includes the related pro forma adjustments as referred to within the section “Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined and Consolidated Financial Information.”
(2) The potentially dilutive outstanding securities were excluded from the computation of pro forma net loss per share, basic and diluted, because their effect would have been anti-dilutive.
(3) The potentially dilutive outstanding securities of Legacy Damon to be exchanged for securities of Pubco are adjusted to reflect the exchange ratio associated with the Business Combination.

Business Overview

 

Our Personal Mobility Products Development Business Through Damon Motors

 

Damon Inc, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Damon Motors, is developing electric motorcycles and other personal mobility products that seek to empower the personal mobility industry through innovation, data intelligence and strategic partnerships. Damon Motors is developing technology and investing in the capabilities to lead an integrated personal mobility ecosystem from individual travels to last mile delivery. With decades of combined management and engineering experience across the team’s careers, and a commitment to low carbon personal mobility solutions, Damon Motors is seeking to introduce existing enthusiasts to high-performance electric products while bringing new riders to the motorcycle community with first of its kind advances in zero emissions motorcycle performance, safety, connectivity and AI.

 

Founded in 2017, Damon Motors started reimagining the future of motorcycling by means of advanced safety design, electric vehicle powertrain technology and user experience. In 2019, Damon Motors took its first alpha prototype motorcycles and safety systems into the field to test the concept. In 2021, Damon Motors expanded its operations and research and development expertise to accelerate the engineering and development of its HyperDrive platform drive unit and the HyperSport motorcycle. Through core technology advancements, Damon Motors electric motorcycles are in prototype phase of product validation.

 

Damon Motors’ electric vehicles are developed with a set of proprietary design principles that elevate the brand, deliver differentiated riding experiences and bring emotion to electric propulsion. The initial product portfolio of motorcycle models will be built upon and utilize a single powertrain platform called HyperDrive™. As a patented, monocoque-constructed battery-chassis, HyperDrive houses a proprietary 150 kW 6-phase liquid cooled IPM motor-gearbox and proprietary electronics. This platform approach establishes a capital-efficient path to grow the product line to meet a wide range of future segments and price points, while also supporting a wide range of future motorcycle models and power sizes that share as much as 85 percent common parts. By using the frame of the battery as the motorcycle’s chassis, HyperDrive also achieves valuable weight and cost reduction advantages. With 150 kW of power at its disposal, HyperDrive has been specifically designed to compete with the performance of market leaders in the high-performance motorcycle market, whether internal combustion or electric. Thanks to the energy modularity designed into it, HyperDrive-based motorcycles can be detuned in power, energy and thus cost to support 500 – 1500cc power equivalent classes of motorcycles in both the North American and European markets, with price points ranging from $20,000 - $80,000.

The HyperDrive platform is contrasted by the smaller, less powerful and lower cost HyperLite platform, currently in its early design phase. HyperLite will be developed using a very similar design architecture as HyperDrive, enabling the production of a range of light weight, low to medium cost motorcycles and scooters with milder levels of horsepower that are more common in overseas and developing markets. With these two platforms paired with Damon Motors’ three patented cornerstone technologies, CoPilot™, Shift™ and its AI-enabled cloud platform. Damon Motors’ long-term objective is to build a premium, high-tech, electric motorcycle company that rivals the largest incumbents in both profit and annual volume, by providing a technologically enhanced riding experience that is not currently available from other manufacturers.

 

CoPilot provides a novel rider assistance and warning system integrated into the motorcycle. Shift allows the handlebars and foot pegs to mechatronically adjust on the fly, addressing issues of ergonomic comfort and allowing users to select different riding positions for changing conditions such as a lower, more aerodynamic position for highway use or a more upright position for urban use. Its AI-enabled cloud will collect environmental and situational data that, paired with over-the-air software updates, can drive a continual loop of collision warning improvements, with an aim to further reduce accident probability over time.

 

The commercial production of Damon Motors’ motorcycles is expected to commence after passing various internal and external tests and undergoing a self-certification process required for US-bound vehicle homologation. These tests include: the completion of Damon Motors’ ride quality and long-term durability testing, completion of FCC Title 47 certification for the onboard charger, completion of UN 38.3 battery testing, completion of Damon Motors’ internal battery testing, extreme temperature operation verification, brake testing per FMVSS, and an internal and external review of FMVSS compliance with Damon Motors engineering subcontractor TUV of Germany.

 

Our SAVES Distribution Business Through Grafiti Limited

 

Damon, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Grafiti Limited, distributes in the UK and certain other European countries data analytics and visualization software products referred to as SAVES primarily for scientists and engineers. Grafiti Limited products can be downloaded to a user’s desktop. These products help scientific research in the health and life sciences domain in the discovery of new drugs, in the study of the efficacy of established drugs and therapies, and in epidemic propagation research, among other applications. Engineers use our products for a multitude of applications which include, but are not limited to, conducting surface modelling analysis and curve fitting in order to design new engineering processes, studying signal attenuation and propagation in radio engineering. Potential automobile and motorcycle applications could include surface panel design for aerodynamics, aesthetic symmetry, and calculated asymmetry among others. We believe the Grafiti Limited regression analysis product could also be used for predicting vehicle sharing demand and pricing trends in various markets based on a wide range of variables.

 

Grafiti Limited’s strategy is to build a broader, long term customer base by increasing its sales of Grafiti Limited’s product offerings which will include cloud and Macintosh compatible data analytics and statistical visualization software products. We believe this will enable the Grafiti Limited business to focus on generating more recurring revenues in the future.

 

Grafiti Limited was formed by the Parent on May 13, 2020, as a distribution arm for its SAVES products in the UK market and part of the European market.

 

Our Corporate Strategy

 

We are pursuing a corporate strategy focused on developing a business offering of end-to-end solutions ranging from personal mobility products to the collection of data to delivering insights from that data to our customers with a focus on safety and data intelligence and engineering services. In connection with such strategy and to facilitate our long-term growth, we continue to evaluate various strategic transactions, including acquisitions of companies with personal mobility products, technologies and IP that complement those goals by adding technology, differentiation, customers and/or revenue. We are primarily looking for accretive acquisitions that have business value and operational synergies, but will be opportunistic for other strategic and/or attractive transactions. We believe these complementary technologies will add value to the Company and allow us to provide a comprehensive integrated personal mobility ecosystem to our customers. In addition, we may seek to expand our capabilities around safety, security, artificial intelligence, augmented reality and virtual reality or other high growth sectors. Candidates with proven technologies and personal mobility products that complement our overall strategy may come from anywhere in the world, as long as there are strategic and financial reasons to make the acquisition. We are also exploring opportunities that will supplement our revenue growth. We are primarily looking for accretive acquisitions that have business value and operational synergies, yet also opportunistic for other strategic and/or attractive transactions that we believe may increase overall shareholder value, which may include, but not be limited to, other alternative investment opportunities, such as minority investments and joint ventures. If we make any acquisitions in the future, we expect that we may pay for such acquisitions using our equity securities and/or cash and debt financings in combinations appropriate for each acquisition.

Trust Shares Distribution in connection with Spin-Off of Grafiti Holding

 

On October 23, 2023, Parent and Grafiti Holding entered into a Separation and Distribution Agreement, pursuant to which all of the outstanding shares of Grafiti Limited were transferred to Grafiti Holding, such that on December 26, 2023, Grafiti Limited became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Grafiti Holding. Grafiti Limited was formed by the Parent on May 13, 2020 as a distribution arm for its SAVES products in the United Kingdom market and part of the European market. Following the reorganization, and in connection with the spin-off of Grafiti Holding from Parent, on December 27, 2023 (the “record date”), all of the outstanding common shares of the Company (the “Trust Shares”) were transferred to the Trust, to be held for the benefit of holders of the Parent’s common stock, preferred stock and those outstanding warrants that are contractually entitled to participate in the distribution, on a pro rata basis as of the record date (collectively, the “participating Parent securityholders”). On November 12, 2024, the Trust Shares were delivered to participating Parent securityholders, on a pro rata at a ratio of 1 for 50 resulting in the distribution of 3,536,746 Trust Shares to participating Parent securityholders.

 

Completion of Business Combination

 

On October 23, 2023, the Company, Parent, Damon Motors, and 1444842 B.C. LTD (“Amalco Sub”) entered into a Business Combination Agreement (as amended by the First Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement dated June 18, 2024 and the Second Amendment to the Business Combination Agreement dated September 26, 2024, the “Damon Business Combination Agreement”). On November 13, 2024, Damon Motors and Amalco Sub amalgamated, with Damon Motors continuing as a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Amalgamation”). Following the Amalgamation, the Company was renamed “Damon Inc.” (also referred to herein as the “combined company”). Pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement under the laws of British Columbia, as contemplated in the Damon Business Combination Agreement, securityholders of Damon Motors exchanged their securities of Damon Motors for amalgamation consideration consisting of:

 

(i)14,764,803 Common Shares of the Company,

 

(ii)1,391,181 multiple voting shares of the Company, which were convertible into Common Shares of the Company on a 1 for 1 basis, issued to Jay Giraud, the combined company’s CEO and director as of the closing, and its controlled entity,

 

(iii)warrants to purchase 2,186,498 Common Shares of the Company at an exercise price of $7.81 per share, with terms substantially similar to those of Damon Motors’s warrants, issued to former Damon Motors warrant holders, and

 

(iv)options to purchase 1,942,127 Common Shares at exercise prices between $0.57 and $12.73, issued to former Damon Motors option holders under the Company’s equity incentive plans.

 

The exchanges are based on an exchange ratio determined according to the formula in the Damon Business Combination Agreement.

The combined company commenced trading on the Nasdaq Global Market on November 18, 2024, under the symbol “DMN”. The Company’s common shares have been delisted from Nasdaq recently and began trading on the OTC Pink Current Market on May 20, 2025. The OTC Pink Current Market became the OTCID Basic Market effective as of July 1, 2025.

 

As a result of the closing of the Business Combination, a change in control of the Company has occurred, and Damon Motors became a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company. Following the issuance of the amalgamation consideration pursuant to the Plan of Arrangement, the Company’s security holders immediately prior to the effective time of the Amalgamation (the “Effective Time”) retained beneficial ownership of approximately 18% of the outstanding Common Shares of the Company on a fully-diluted basis and Damon Motors security holders immediately prior to the Effective Time acquired beneficial ownership of Common Shares amounting to approximately 82% of the outstanding common shares of the Company on a fully-diluted basis.

 

Following the resignation of Jay Giraud from all officer and director positions with the Company as of December 4, 2024, all the multiple voting shares held by Mr. Giraud and his wholly-owned company were converted automatically into Common Shares on a one-for-one basis. After giving effect to the conversion and as of the date of this filing, the Company has only common shares outstanding, with no multiple voting shares remaining outstanding.

 

Financing Agreements

 

Streeterville June 2024 Note and Second Amendment to Note

 

On June 26, 2024, Grafiti Holding and Streeterville entered into the Note Purchase Agreement, pursuant to which Grafiti Holding sold a secured promissory note in an aggregate original principal amount of $6,470,000 in a private offering in reliance on exemptions from registration under applicable securities laws. The Note and the Note Purchase Agreement were amended by Amendment No. 1 as of October 31, 2024.

 

The Note carries an original issue discount of $1,450,000 and $20,000 of issuance costs to cover legal, accounting, due diligence, monitoring and other transaction costs. On the same day, Streeterville paid the purchase price of $5,000,000 as follows: (a) $1,150,000 to Grafiti Holding; (b) $350,000 to Damon Motors as a loan from Grafiti Holding to Damon Motors, and (c) $3,500,000 into escrow, which was distributed to Grafiti Holding upon satisfaction of certain conditions including the consummation of the Business Combination and the listing of the post-closing company’s common shares on Nasdaq. Additionally, starting on the earlier of 13 months after the closing of the Business Combination or January 1, 2026, Streeterville may require the borrower to redeem up to one-sixth of the note’s initial principal and accrued interest monthly, and any unexercised redemption amounts can be carried over to future months.

 

In connection with the Streeterville loan transaction, Damon Motors Corporation, a Delaware corporation, Damon Subsidiary, and Damon Motors, each entered into a Guaranty, dated as of June 26, 2024, whereby Damon Motors and the Damon Subsidiary guaranteed the performance of Grafiti Holding’s obligations under the Note. Additionally, Grafiti Holding’s obligations under the Note are secured by a lien on the promissory note issued by Damon Motors to Grafiti Holding and all related claims, rights, and interests in such note issued by Damon Motors, pursuant to a Security Agreement between Streeterville and Grafiti Holding, dated June 26, 2024.

 

On February 27, 2025, the Company and Streeterville entered into the Note Amendment to the Note originally issued by the Company to Streeterville on June 26, 2024, in an original principal amount of $6,470,000.

 

Pursuant to the Note Amendment, the parties have agreed to amend the Note to grant Streeterville the right to convert from time to time at its election, all or any portion of the outstanding balance of the Note into Conversion Shares. The number of Conversion Shares deliverable under a conversion notice will be equal to the amount of the outstanding balance of the Note being converted, divided by the conversion price, which is 90% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s Common Shares reported by Bloomberg during the ten trading days preceding the delivery date of a conversion notice. This is subject to the Floor Price, which will be adjusted accordingly in the event of a share split or combination. If the Company issues any securities with a floor price less than $0.20 per share in the future, the Floor Price will automatically adjust to be equal to such lower floor price.

 

- 70 -

 

 

The Note Amendment contains an ownership limitation, pursuant to which the Company shall not effect any issuance of Conversion Shares to the extent that such issuance would cause Streeterville, together with its affiliates, to beneficially own a number of common shares exceeding 9.99% of the number of Common Shares outstanding on such date, including the Common Shares issuable upon such issuance.

 

In connection with the March Offering, the floor price under the June 2024 Note was adjusted to $0.0251, however, as a result of the reverse stock split on July 3, 2025, the adjusted floor price is $3.1375. We expect that the Floor Price will be further adjusted to $0.10 upon the first closing of any Common Shares sold under this Offering. As of July 21,2025, the outstanding principal amount was partially repaid and reduced to $4,491,700, with an additional $668,527 in accrued unpaid interest, which may result in an issuance of 51,602,270 Common Shares, assuming a conversion price equal to $0.10 upon the first closing of any Common Shares sold under this Offering.

 

Additionally, as of July 21, 2025, the outstanding principal balance under the December 2024 SPA was $3,158,000, with an additional $147,370 in accrued unpaid interest. Streeterville may make purchases of Common Shares in satisfaction of outstanding pre-paid purchases pursuant to the pricing formula set forth in the December 2024 SPA. If the Company receives additional funding under the total $10,000,000 commitment or if Streeterville elects to purchase Common Shares in satisfaction of the outstanding balance under the December 2024 SPA, further issuances of Common Shares may occur.

 

December 2024 Securities Purchase Agreement with Streeterville

 

On December 20, 2024, we entered into the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement with Streeterville, as amended by the Amendment No. 1 to the Securities Purchase Agreement dated February 27, 2025. Under such agreement, the Company agreed to issue and sell to Streeterville one or more pre-paid purchases at an aggregate purchase price of up to the Total Commitment Amount ($10,000,000) for the purchase of the Company’s common shares. As consideration for Streeterville’s commitment, the Company also agreed to issue to Streeterville the Commitment Shares (343,053 Common Shares).

 

Each pre-paid purchase includes an original issue discount of 7% and accrues interest at an annual rate of 8%. For the initial pre-paid purchase, which closed on the Initial Closing Date, Streeterville paid $2,000,000, creating in an initial principal balance of $2,140,000.

 

Pursuant to the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement and a registration rights agreement entered into on the same date, the Company agreed to file the Registration Statement under the Securities Act, to register the resale of 18,000,000 Common Shares, including the Commitment Shares and Common Shares issuable pursuant to the pre-paid purchases. If the Registration Statement is declared effective within 90 days of the Initial Closing Date, which it was, and no default has occurred, and if requested by the Company, Streeterville will fund $1,000,000 for a second pre-paid purchase.

 

Within a committed two-year period, and subject to certain specified conditions, the Company may request the issuance of additional pre-paid purchases to Streeterville, with each purchase amount no less than $250,000, provided that the total outstanding balance of all pre-paid purchases does not exceed $3,000,000.

 

The proceeds from the pre-paid purchases are expected to be used for working capital and other corporate purposes. However, $100,000 from the initial pre-paid purchase funding, and 15% of the funding from subsequent pre-paid purchases, shall be used to repay the indebtedness under the Note issued to Streeterville in June 2024 with an original principal amount of $6,470,000.

 

- 71 -

 

 

Following the funding of each pre-paid purchase, Streeterville has the right, but not the obligation, to purchase from the Company its common shares not exceeding (i) the outstanding balance of the funded amount, and (ii) 9.99% beneficial ownership of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares. The purchase price of the Common Shares will be the lower of (i) $1.50 or (ii) 90% of the lowest daily VWAP during the ten consecutive trading days immediately prior to the purchase notice date, but not less than the floor price, which is equal to 20% of the “Minimum Price” as defined under Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d) prior to the applicable closing. Under the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed that, if applicable, it will seek the Required Shareholder Approval, and until such approval is obtained, the Company will not request additional pre-paid purchases that may cause the total amount of Common Shares issuable to exceed the Exchange Cap. However, since the Company is no longer listed on Nasdaq, the Required Shareholder Approval and Exchange Cap no longer apply.

 

The outstanding pre-paid purchases, unless reduced by the Company’s sale of Common Shares to Streeterville as described, will remain outstanding and may be repaid in cash at the Company’s option. There is no maturity date for the outstanding balance of the pre-paid purchases. Additionally, if certain triggering events occur, including (a) the VWAP of the Company’s Common Shares falling below the floor price for at least five trading days within a seven-trading-day period, or (b) the Company having issued 75% of the shares under the Exchange Cap if an Exchange Cap applies, the Company must make monthly cash repayments of $350,000 in principal plus any accrued unpaid interest until the outstanding balance is fully repaid or the triggering event conditions are resolved. In an event of default as specified in the pre-paid purchase, Streeterville may accelerate repayment, requiring the outstanding balance to become immediately due, with a 10% increase to the principal and interest accruing at a rate of 18% per annum.

 

Under the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, the Company has received an aggregate of $4,400,000 from Streeterville out of the Total Commitment Amount of $10,000,000, resulting in an outstanding principal balance of $4,708,000, excluding any accrued interest and prior to any purchase of common shares discussed below. Of the $4,400,000 received, a total of $460,000 has been used to repay the indebtedness under the secured promissory note issued to Streeterville in June 2024 with an original principal amount of $6,470,000.

 

As of July 21, 2025, Streeterville has purchased, and the Company has issued, a total of 65,068 (8,133,614 pre-reverse split 8,133,614) Common Shares to satisfy pre-paid purchases made through this date, based on the pricing formula described in the Streeterville Securities Purchase Agreement, and the outstanding principal balance has been reduced to $3,158,000, with an additional $147,370 in accrued interest.

 

Termination of East West and Braebeacon Loan Documents

 

On March 29, 2025, the Company entered into a letter agreement with Braebeacon Holdings Inc. (“Braebeacon”) to formally terminate the following loan agreements, under which the Company received no loan funds prior to such termination: (i) the Note Purchase Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, between the Company and Braebeacon; (ii) the Secured Promissory Note, dated November 13, 2024, issued by the Company to Braebeacon; (iii) the Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, executed by the Company in favor of Braebeacon; (iv) the Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in favor of Braebeacon; (v) the Intellectual Property Security Agreement, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors, Inc. in favor of Braebeacon; (vi) the Guaranty, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors, Inc. in favor of Braebeacon; and (vii) the Guaranty, dated November 13, 2024, executed by Damon Motors Corporation, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, in favor of Braebeacon.

 

Completion of Registered Underwritten Offering 

 

On March 20, 2025, in connection with the March Offering, the Company entered into an underwriting agreement (the “Underwriting Agreement”) with Maxim Group LLC, as the sole underwriter (the “Underwriter”), pursuant to which the Company sold and issued: (i) 1,015,200 (pre-reverse stock split - 126,900,000) units (each a “Unit” and, collectively, the “Units”) at a public offering price of $16.25 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.130) per Unit, with each Unit consisting of (A) one Common Share and (B) one Series A Warrant (each a “Series A Warrant” and collectively, the “Series A Warrants”) to purchase one Common Share for cash or otherwise acquire such greater number of Common Shares as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Series A Warrant upon an alternate cashless exercise option; and (ii) 50,760 (pre-reverse stock split - 6,345,000) warrants to purchase Common Shares to the Underwriter (each a “Underwriter’s Warrant” and, collectively, the “Underwriter’s Warrants”) for cash or otherwise acquire such greater number of Common Shares as determined in accordance with the provisions of the Underwriter’s Warrant upon an alternate cashless exercise option. The Underwriter’s Warrants are identical to the Series A Warrants except that the Underwriter’s Warrants are subject to a 180-day lock-up pursuant to Rule 5110(e)(1) of FINRA.

 

- 72 -

 

 

Each Series A Warrant is exercisable at an initial exercise price of $24.375 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.195) per share (150% of the public offering price per Unit). The Series A Warrants will be exercisable from issuance and will expire two and one-half (2.5) years after issuance. Additionally, under the alternate cashless exercise option of the Series A Warrants, during the period of 90 calendar days following the issue date of the Series A Warrants, a holder of the Series A Warrant has the right to receive, without payment of any additional cash to the Company, an aggregate number of shares equal to the product of (x) the aggregate number of Common Shares that would be issuable upon a cash exercise of the Series A Warrant and (y) two and a half (2.5). Accordingly, the Company believed it was highly unlikely that a holder of the Series A Warrants would pay an exercise price in cash to receive one Common Share when the holder could instead choose the alternate cashless exercise option and pay no cash to receive 2.5 Common Shares. As a result, the Company will likely not receive any additional funds and does not expect to receive any additional funds upon the exercise of the Series A Warrants.

 

In addition, at 4:01 p.m. Eastern time on the 7th trading day after the date of issuance (the “First Reset Date”), the exercise price of the Series A Warrants was reset to $6.275 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.0502) per share, which equaled the initial floor price based on the first reset formula provided in the Series A Warrants; and the number of shares issuable upon exercise was increased such that the aggregate exercise price of the Series A Warrants on the issuance date for the Common Shares underlying the Series A Warrants then outstanding remained unchanged. Subsequently, at 4:01 p.m. Eastern time on the 15th trading day after the date of issuance (the “Second Reset Date”), the exercise price of the Series A Warrants was further reset to $3.1375 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.0251) per share, which equaled the second floor price based on the second reset formula provided in the Series A Warrants; and the number of shares issuable upon exercise was further increased such that the aggregate exercise price of the Series A Warrants on the issuance date for the Common Shares underlying the Series A Warrants then outstanding remained unchanged.

 

Under the Underwriting Agreement, the Company granted the Underwriter an option to purchase from the Company either up to an additional 152,280 (pre-reverse stock split - 19,035,000) Common Shares at a price of $16.125 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.129) per share or up to 152,280 (pre-reverse stock split - 19,035,000) Series A Warrants to purchase Common Shares at a price of $0.125 (pre-reverse stock split - $0.001) per warrant, or a combination of the two (the “Overallotment Option”). On March 21, 2025, the Underwriter exercised its Overallotment Option with respect to 152,280 (pre-reverse stock split - 19,035,000) Series A Warrants.

 

The Underwriter received a cash fee of six and a half percent (6.5%) of the aggregate gross proceeds raised in the March Offering as underwriting discounts and commissions. The Company paid $100,000 of the Underwriter’s out-of-pocket accountable expenses in connection with the March Offering.

 

The March Offering closed on March 21, 2025. The net proceeds to the Company from the March Offering were approximately $15 million, after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions and other offering expenses payable by the Company. The Company intends to use the net proceeds for working capital and general corporate purposes, including research and development as well as marketing and sales of the Company’s products. Additionally, the Company used approximately 14% of the net proceeds to repay the outstanding balance of the June 2024 Note.

 

The March Offering was made pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333-285872), which was initially filed with the SEC on March 18, 2025, and declared effective by the SEC on March 20, 2025, and a registration statement on Form S-1 (File No. 333- 285981), which was filed with the SEC on March 20, 2025 and became effective upon filing. The final prospectus relating to the March Offering was filed with the SEC on March 21, 2025.

 

Subsequent Exercise of Series A Warrants

 

Subsequent to March 31, 2025, the Company has issued an aggregate of 15,573,684 (pre-reverse stock split - 1,946,710,549) Common Shares upon exercise of the Series A Warrants pursuant to the alternate cashless exercise provision. The fair value of the exercised warrants in the amount of $14,396,075 were recorded to equity. As of July 21, 2025, 19 Series A Warrants (pre-reverse split – 2,352 Series A Warrants) remain outstanding, which may result in the issuance of up to 19 additional Common Shares (pre-reverse split – 2,352 additional Common Shares).

Technical Design Agreement

 

On April 4, 2025, the Company entered into a Technical Design Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Engines Engineering S.p.a. (“EE”), an Italian corporation specializing in vehicle engineering, design and development, to provide such services for development of the Company’s HyperSport Race electric motorcycle (the “Project”).

 

Under the Agreement, EE will be responsible for delivering services in multiple areas including technical compliance, component selection, development and validation testing, and prototyping. The Project is structured into nine development phases continuing through March 2026, with specific milestones and deliverables required at each phase.

 

The total contract value of the Agreement is €1,581,670, with half of the amount invoiced on the date of the Agreement, and the remaining half tied to milestone-based deliverables for each phase of the Project, to be invoiced in installments following the Company’s acceptance of the corresponding phase.

 

Pursuant to the Agreement, all work product developed under the Agreement will be owned by the Company upon full payment for the applicable phase, while EE retains ownership of its pre-existing intellectual property and grants the Company an irrevocable, perpetual, nonexclusive, worldwide and paid-up license to use such intellectual property and create derivative works from it when used as part of or in support of the work product developed under the Agreement.

 

Critical Accounting Estimates

 

Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We evaluate our critical accounting estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis. Our estimates are based on historical experience, current trends, and various other assumptions that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. To the extent that there are differences between our estimates and actual results, our future financial statement presentation, financial condition, results of operations, and cash flows may be affected. Because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

 

There have been no significant changes to our critical accounting estimates as compared to those disclosed in the “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the year ended June 30, 2024 and 2023 included in the information statement filed as Exhibit 99.1 to the amended registration statement on Form 10-12B filed with the SEC on September 26, 2024, except as disclosed below.

 

Revenue Recognition

 

The Company recognizes revenue when control of the promised products or services is transferred to its customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services. Our licenses are sold as perpetual or term licenses and the arrangements may include maintenance services which are accounted for as separate performance obligations. In determining how revenue should be recognized, a five-step process is used, which requires judgment and estimates within the revenue recognition process. The most critical judgements required in applying ASC 606 Revenue Recognition from Customers, and our revenue recognition policy relate to the determination of distinct performance obligations.

 

  Revenue from licenses for on-premises software is recognized at a point in time when the software is made available to the customer.

 

- 74 -

 

 

  Software as a service revenue is recognized over time over the service period using a time-based measure, as the Company is providing continuous service and the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided by the Company’s performance as the services are performed.

 

We also consider whether an arrangement has any discounts, material rights, or specified future upgrades that may represent additional performance obligations. Discounts have not historically been significant, but we continue to monitor and evaluate these estimates based on historical experience, anticipated performance, and our best judgment. Renewals or extensions of licenses are evaluated as distinct licenses (i.e., a distinct good or service), and revenue attributed to the distinct service cannot be recognized until (1) the entity provides the distinct license (or makes the license available) to the customer and (2) the customer is able to use and benefit from the distinct license. If any of these judgments were to change it could cause a material increase or decrease in the amount of revenue we report in a particular period.

 

Long-Lived Assets - Impairment Assessments

 

Long-lived assets are grouped for recognition and measurement of impairment at the lowest level for which identifiable cash flows are largely independent of the cash flows of other assets. The impairment test for long-lived assets requires us to assess the recoverability of our long-lived assets by comparing their net carrying value to the sum of undiscounted estimated future cash flows directly associated with and arising from our use and eventual disposition of the assets. If the net carrying value of a group of long-lived assets exceeds the sum of related undiscounted estimated future cash flows, we would be required to record an impairment charge equal to the excess, if any, of net carrying value over fair value.

 

When assessing the recoverability of our long-lived assets, which include property and equipment, we make assumptions regarding estimated future cash flows and other factors. Some of these assumptions involve a high degree of judgment and bear a significant impact on the assessment conclusions. Included among these assumptions are estimating undiscounted future cash flows, including the projection of comparable sales, operating expenses, capital requirements for maintaining property and equipment and residual value of asset groups. We formulate estimates from historical experience and assumptions of future performance, based on business plans and forecasts, recent economic and business trends, and competitive conditions. In the event that our estimates or related assumptions change in the future, we may be required to record an impairment charge.

 

We evaluate the remaining useful lives of long-lived assets whenever events or circumstances indicate that a revision to the remaining period of amortization is warranted. Such events or circumstances may include (but are not limited to): the effects of obsolescence, demand, competition, and/or other economic factors including the stability of the industry in which we operate, known technological advances, legislative actions, or changes in the regulatory environment. If the estimated remaining useful lives change, the remaining carrying amount of the long-lived assets would be amortized prospectively over that revised remaining useful life. We have determined that there were no events or circumstances during the years ended June 30, 2024, 2023 or 2022, which would indicate a revision to the remaining amortization period related to any of our long-lived assets. Accordingly, we believe that the current estimated useful lives of long-lived assets reflect the period over which they are expected to contribute to future cash flows and are therefore deemed appropriate.

 

Based on its assessments, the Company has not recorded any impairment of long-lived assets during the years ended June 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

Deferred Income Taxes

 

In accordance with ASC 740 “Income Taxes” (“ASC 740”), management routinely evaluates the likelihood of the realization of its income tax benefits and the recognition of its deferred tax assets. In evaluating the need for any valuation allowance, management will assess whether it is more likely than not that some portion, or all, of the deferred tax asset may not be realized on a jurisdictional basis. Ultimately, the realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income during those periods in which temporary differences become deductible and/or tax credits and tax loss carry-forwards can be utilized. In performing its analyses, management considers both positive and negative evidence including historical financial performance, previous earnings patterns, future earnings forecasts, tax planning strategies, economic and business trends and the potential realization of net operating loss carry-forwards within a reasonable timeframe. To this end, management considered (i) that we have had historical losses in the prior years and cannot anticipate generating a sufficient level of future profits in order to realize the benefits of our deferred tax asset; (ii) tax planning strategies; and (iii) the adequacy of future income as of June 30, 2024, June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, based upon certain economic conditions and historical losses through June 30, 2024, June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022. After consideration of these factors, management deemed it appropriate to establish a full valuation allowance with respect to the deferred tax assets for the Company.

 

A liability for “unrecognized tax benefits” is recorded for any tax benefits claimed in the Company’s tax filings that do not meet these recognition and measurement standards. As of June 30, 2024, June 30, 2023 and June 30, 2022, no liability for unrecognized tax benefits was required to be reported. The guidance also discusses the classification of related interest and penalties on income taxes. The Company’s policy is to record interest and penalties on uncertain tax positions as a component of income tax expense. No interest or penalties were recorded during the years ended June 30, 2024, 2023 and 2022.

 

Warrant Liabilities

 

The Company accounts for warrants as either equity-classified or liability-classified instruments based on an assessment of the warrant’s specific terms and applicable authoritative guidance in the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 480, Distinguishing Liabilities from Equity (“ASC 480”) and ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging (“ASC 815”). The assessment considers whether the warrants are freestanding financial instruments pursuant to ASC 480, meet the definition of a liability pursuant to ASC 480, and whether the warrants meet all of the requirements for equity classification under ASC 815, including whether the warrants are indexed to the Company’s own ordinary shares, among other conditions for equity classification. This assessment, which requires the use of professional judgment, is conducted at the time of warrant issuance and as of each subsequent quarterly period end date while the warrants are outstanding.

 

For issued or modified warrants that meet all of the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded as a component of additional paid-in capital at the time of issuance. For issued or modified warrants that do not meet all the criteria for equity classification, the warrants are required to be recorded at their initial fair value on the date of issuance, and each balance sheet date thereafter.

Fiscal 2024 compared to Fiscal 2023

 

For the year ended June 30, 2024, the research and development, net amounted to $4.6 mil compared to $17.5 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023. The decrease was primarily due to reduced R&D activities as Damon Motors managed its cashflow and spend on key operational items as analyzed below and recognition of Canadian Scientific Research & Development tax credit (“SR&ED “) of $2.1 mil received in year ended June 30, 2024 compared to $nil received in year ended June 30, 2023.

 

For the year ended June 30, 2024, salaries and wages decreased from $8.4 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023, to $5.1 mil mainly due to decrease in headcount, from 39 as of June 30, 2023, to 18 by June 30, 2024. Similarly, the lab supplies and materials decreased from $5.1 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 to just $0.5 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024 as development activities in 2024 were reduced significantly as the development of motorcycle models were mostly completed largely in 2022 and 2023. The fees paid to outside contractors and consultants decreased from $1.1 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 compared $0.05 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024 with development and testing work being carried out by Damon Motors employees instead of out-sourcing to third party. Stock-based compensation decreased from $0.8 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023, to $0.1 mil in line with decrease in headcount, expiry of unexercised stock options for terminated employees and no new stock options granted for the year ended June 30, 2024 compared to the year ended June 30, 2023. The decrease in rent and insurance from $1.4 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 to $0.7 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024 is mainly due to the surrender of Surrey manufacturing facility lease effective June 30, 2023. Overall decrease in travel, meals and entertainment, subscriptions and dues, and general and other expenses were in line with Damon Motors’s managing costs.

 

Fiscal 2023 compared to Fiscal 2022

 

For the year ended June 30, 2023, the research and development, net amounted to $17.5 mil, compared to $18.2 mil for the year ended June 30, 2022. The decrease was due to scaling down of R&D activities in the second half of 2023 due to tight cash position as explained below.

For the year ended June 30, 2023, salaries and wages increased from $7.4 mil for the year ended June 30, 2022 to $8.4 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 mainly due to higher headcount in the first half of the Fiscal 2023 and severance payment made to terminated employees. With development of HyperDrive and HyperSport, the research and development team headcount continued to increase from 78 as of June 30, 2022, peaking at 85 team members in August 2022 but dwindling down to 39 by June 30, 2023 as Damon Motors under-go two rounds of headcount reduction in February and April 2023. Stock-based compensation decreased from $1.3 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 to $0.8 mil for the year ended June 30, 2022 as stock options granted to the R&D team during the year were more than off-set by forfeiture or cancellation of unexercised stock options for terminated employees. The fees paid to outside contractors and consultants of $3.7mil for the year ended June 30, 2022 has decreased to $1.1 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 as some of the contractors converted to full-time employees of Damon Motors, and due to slowing down of non-critical research and development activities as funds were tight. The decrease was also reflected in overall decrease in travel, meals and entertainment, subscriptions and dues and in general and other expenses in line with overall headcount decrease. The decrease was, however, partially off-set by increase in rent and insurance due to commencement of lease of Surrey manufacturing facility and 101 Glacier on September 29, 2022 and October 1, 2022 respectively.

 

Also included in research and development, net are SR&ED tax credits and government grant funding totaling $nil and $0.1 mil respectively the year ended June 30, 2023 and $0.6 mil and $0.1 mil respectively for the year ended June 30, 2022. The decrease in SR&ED tax credits for the year ended June 30, 2023 was because the tax credit claimed during the year was not finalized as of June 30, 2023.

Fiscal 2024 compared to Fiscal 2023

 

General and administrative decreased to $4.3 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024 compared to $6.8 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023, mainly due to management controlling its operating costs due to challenges with fund raising.

 

Salaries and wages for the year ended June 30, 2024, of $1.6 mil is lower compared to $2.2 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023, principally due to decrease in headcount from 10 as of June 30, 2023, to 5 members as of June 30, 2024 due to terminations on March 18, 2024. Contractors and consultants fees paid to external parties increased from $1.1 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 to $1.3 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024 as Damon Motors incurred more consultancy and advisory fees due to interim financial statements reviews and year-end financial statements audit for the public filing requirements in fiscal year 2024. However, professional fees decreased from $1.1 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023, to $0.3 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024, due to decrease in professional fees related to financing and decrease in intellectual property filing and patent registration due to tight cashflow. The decrease in professional fees related to financing is due to Damon Motors raising funds in fiscal year 2024 through a broker compared to largely non-brokered financing in fiscal year 2023. Stock-based compensation decreased from $0.9 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023, compared to $0.06 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024 in line with decrease in headcount, expiry of unexercised stock options for terminated employees, and no new stock options granted for the year ended June 30, 2024 compared to the year ended June 30, 2023.

Fiscal 2023 compared to Fiscal 2022

 

For the year ended June 30, 2023, general and administrative expenses increased from $4.8 mil for the year ended June 30, 2022, to $6.8 mil. The increase resulted from the expansion of Damon Motors’s head office in anticipation of an expected increase in business and professional fees incurred for intellectual property filing and patent registration in fiscal year 2023.

 

Salaries and wages increased from $1.4 mil for the year ended June 30, 2022, to $2.2 mil for year ended June 30, 2023 mainly due to increase in salary and wages in line with increase headcount and severance payment for terminated employees the in second half of Fiscal 2023. The headcount increased from 15 as of June 30, 2022, peaking at 20 headcounts in September 2022 to support business expansion, before the two rounds of headcount reduction in February and April 2023, reducing the headcount significantly back to 10 members as of June 30, 2023 due to challenges with fund raising. On the other hand, fees paid to contractors and consultants reduced marginally from $1.3 mil for year ended June 30, 2022 to $1.1 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 as Damon Motors cut down its spending on third party contractors and consultants due to tight cash position but partially off-set by increase in accounting and consulting fees due to more frequent interim financial statements reviews. Professional fees increased from $0.9 mil for the year ended June 30, 2022, to $1.1 mil for year ended June 30, 2023 due to higher legal and professional fees related to intellectual property filing and patent registration in fiscal year 2023 and on-going fund raising. Stock-based compensation increased marginally for the year ended June 30, 2023 totaling $0.9 mil compared to $0.8 mil for the year ended June 30, 2022 as stock options granted were partially offset by forfeiture or cancellation of unexercised stock options for terminated employees.

 

The increase in rent and insurance was due commencement of leases as mentioned above. The overall increase in travel, meals and entertainment, and in general and other expenses for the year ended June 30, 2023 was mainly due to more travelling due to increase fund raising, corporate transaction activities and expansion of business activities. Increase in subscriptions and dues was mainly due to implementation and subscription of Damon Motors cloud-based financial application and cloud-based content management application in Fiscal 2023.

Marketing and promotion expenses were reduced from $1.3 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 to $0.4 mil for the year ended June 30, 2024 as Damon Motors limited the spend on promotion activities, sponsorship, advertisement, and public relation consultancy costs due to the limited cashflow.

For the year ended June 30, 2024, the net loss decreased from $37.0 mil for the year ended June 30, 2023 to $34.0 mil. The decrease in net loss was largely due to substantial drop in operating cost of $15.1 mil, recognition of Canadian Scientific Research & Development tax credit (“SR&ED”) of $2.1 mil received in year ended June 30, 2024 as explained above, and absence of asset and right-of-use asset impairment of $9.5 mil recognized in the year ended June 30, 2023, partially offset by increase in transaction cost of $0.7 mil, gain from release of lease obligation of $6.1 mil, changes in fair value of financial liabilities of $14.5 mil, loss from debt settlement of $0.8 mil and higher finance expenses $2.2 mil as Damon Motors relies more on convertible notes issued to finance its operation.

Liability and Capital Reserves

 

As of March 31, 2025, the Company had cash of $7,555,820, and working capital deficiency of approximately $21.1 million. The Company’s accumulated deficit and expected future losses cast substantial doubt upon its ability to continue as a going concern. Furthermore, the Company had negative cash flows from operating activities of approximately $14.7 million for the nine months ended March 31, 2025. These operating losses and negative cash flows were mainly the result of on-going operating costs, transaction costs incurred due to the business combination and the public listing exercise and financing cost to sustain its operation. Based on the foregoing and its growth strategy, the Company expects to continue to make significant expenditures to expand its business and develop operations in the future. As a result, the Company may continue to incur operating losses and have negative cash flows in the short term, as it continues to execute on its growth strategy and develop operations to produce the motorcycles to meet delivery of the motorcycles in our order book. As such, the substantial doubt of the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern has not been alleviated by management’s plans.

 

The Company’s primary sources of liquidity used in the funding of its operations and the execution of its growth comes from on-going fund raised in the form of issuance of share capital. The Company cannot provide assurance that the Company will secure financing in a timely manner.

Our Market

 

EV Growth Worldwide

 

According to the International Energy Agency’s April 2023 Global EV Outlook, global electric car markets are seeing rapid growth as sales exceed 10 million units in 2022. A total of 16% of all new cars sold were electric in 2022, up from around 9% in 2021 and less than 5% in 2020. Three geographic markets dominated global sales. China was the frontrunner, accounting for around 60% of global electric car sales. More than half of the electric cars on roads worldwide are now in China and the country has already exceeded its 2025 target for new energy vehicle sales. In Europe, the second largest market, electric car sales increased by over 15% in 2022, meaning that more than one in every five cars sold was electric. Electric car sales in the United States – the third largest market – increased 55% in 2022, reaching a sales share of 8%. The rest of the world accounts for about 2%.

 

EV Growth in the North American and European Markets

 

As reported by Silas Smith of way.com, in North America, the percentage of electric cars hit a new high in early 2022. During the first quarter of 2022, the number of EV registrations increased by 60% despite the generally slow performance of the overall market. During the initial nine months of 2022, a total of 530,577 electric cars were sold in the US. These numbers are only for BEVs. The figures do not include plug-in HEV and Hybrid Electric Vehicles. Almost 65% of these percentage of electric cars were Tesla. As early as 2026, S&P Global Mobility expects the total of new EV models available to break 200 in the US market, as the ICE new model count continues a steady decline. In late 2027/early 2028, the total model count should be at its apex — with the number of options across all propulsion system designs approaching 650. The situation is expected to be similar in Europe. S&P Global Mobility forecasts that the three propulsion system designs — EV, hybrid, and ICE — will each account for between 29% and 36% of the market by the end of this decade. After that, EV share is expected to continue to grow while hybrid plateaus and then joins ICE in a continuous, but slow, decline.

 

Motorcycle Market Today

 

The global motorcycle industry is a $144 billion industry, according to data from Motorcycles Data 2022 Global Industry Sales Report, and there are more than 180M motorcycles and scooters produced per year, which exceeds the number of passenger cars and light trucks produced per year on a combined basis.

 

Damon’s strategy is to provide premium and high-technology electric motorcycle offerings for each highway-capable motorcycle segment, priced competitively with the other available options with the goal of becoming a leading motorcycle manufacturer with electric motorcycles that outperform comparable gas bikes.

 

The relevant electric vehicle markets for Damon includes:

 

small and large scooters

 

light, medium and heavy motorcycle; and

 

small and large three-wheelers.

 

Damon’s current core capabilities are in the light, medium and heavy motorcycle segments. Motorcycles Data 2022 Global Industry Sales Report reported $32.1 billion in light motorcycle sales in 2022, which skewed towards the markets in Asia and Europe, while the sales of medium and heavy motorcycles totaled $11.2 billion, growing at a CAGR of 7.2% and concentrated in North America and Europe, where customers more often choose heavier models.

 

The North American market accounts for the majority of the market’s profits, whereas the majority of volume is accounted for in Southeast Asia, albeit with significantly lower margins than the North American market. That said, according to Motorcycles Data 2022 Global Industry Sales Report, the average priced motorcycle purchased in Southeast Asia has risen above $2,400, with the fastest growing segment now priced at $3,000. This increase in price is driven mainly by the increasing middle-class incomes across a younger population, where 1 out of every 2 people is now under the age of 40.

Competitive Landscape

 

The motorcycle market is highly competitive, and Damon expects it will become even more so in the future. Currently, Damon’s competition for its vehicles comes principally from manufacturers of motorcycles with internal combustion engines powered by gasoline, including in the premium and other segments of its business. Although Damon intends to strategically enter the premium electric vehicle segment, it similarly expects this segment will become more competitive in the future as a result of new entrants, both from established brands and start-up companies from various regions of the globe.

 

Many of Damon’s current and potential competitors have significantly greater financial, technical, manufacturing, marketing and other resources than Damon and may be able to devote greater resources to the design, development, manufacturing, distribution, promotion, sale and support of their products. Based on publicly available information, a number of Damon’s competitors already have displayed prototype electric motorcycles and have announced target availability and production timelines, while others have launched pilot programs or full commercial offerings in certain markets.

 

Notably, Damon expects competition in its industry to intensify in the future, considering increased demand and regulatory push for alternative fuel vehicles, continuing globalization and consolidation in the worldwide motorcycle industry. Factors affecting competition include, among others, product quality and features, innovation and development time, pricing, reliability, safety, fuel and energy economy, customer service (including breadth of service network) and financing terms. Damon’s ability to successfully compete in the motorcycle industry will be fundamental to its future success in existing and new markets and its market share. There can be no assurance that Damon will be able to compete successfully in the markets in which it operates. If Damon’s competitors introduce new models or services that successfully compete with or surpass the quality, price, performance or availability of Damon’s vehicles or services, it may be unable to satisfy existing customers or attract new customers at the prices and levels that would allow it to generate attractive rates of return on its investment. Increased competition could result in lower vehicle unit sales, price reductions and revenue shortfalls, loss of customers and loss of market share, which may materially adversely affect Damon’s business, financial condition, operating results and prospects.

 

Damon’s expects competition from two primary segments:

 

first, from leading traditional ICE-focused companies including BMW, Honda, Ducati and Triumph. These companies have the ability to scale manufacturing and leverage global distribution capabilities, but do not currently offer a premium electric motorcycle in market. However, some of these companies are beginning to explore entering the electric motorcycle market, albeit typically they do so first with the lowest cost motorcycles and scooters, lower technological know-how required and reduced cannibalization of their high-margin products necessary to enter the bottom segments of the market; and

 

second, electric vehicle-focused companies, including LiveWire, Zero and Energica that have product in market today. Damon’s focus is to provide higher performing motorcycles with enhanced safety features relative to these current products. Unlike LiveWire, which is majority owned by Harley Davidson, Zero and Energica have motorcycles in the market today but lack the global manufacturing and distribution capabilities of the major ICE players.

 

While Damon expects competition to grow as the market shifts to electric and more players begin to make serious investments, Damon believes it is well- positioned with its combination of commitment, capabilities and advanced technology to lead the growing electric motorcycle market.

 

Damon’s Competitive Strengths

 

We expect to drive continued growth and strong financial performance by leveraging our distinct competitive strengths, each of which we believe provide unique competitive advantages. These include:

 

Highly qualified and knowledgeable management team

 

Damon has assembled a top team of innovative electric vehicle and ADAS safety system engineers and management team members with backgrounds spanning design, development and manufacturing who have developed a wide array of electric vehicles, from buses, to cars, motorcycles, VTOL’s and transport trucks across world class companies such as Apple, BMW, Daimler, Uber Elevate, and many others.

 

- 92 -

 

 

Best-in-class strategic partners and suppliers

 

Damon’s world class strategic partners and suppliers, such as Continental, Fukuta, Brembo, Ohlins, Pirelli, Auteco, Indika Energy and many others, are among the leaders in their respective fields, and Damon believes that such relationships will allow Damon to successfully pursue a competitive position in the global electric motorcycle market.

 

Head start in the market

 

Damon believes it has a significant competitive advantage stemming from the coordinated application of multiple new technologies. With more than $75M invested to date, Damon’s products have advanced vehicle range and power at a reduced overall mass and are developed to solve fundamental problems that motorcyclists frequently experience that have long been poorly addressed. These include noise, emissions, range, safety, comfort and digital connectivity.

 

Patents and trade secrets

 

Damon’s patent portfolio of 34 national and international parents awarded or filed and collection of trade secrets will further protect this new class of motorcycles. With more than 10 billion media impressions and 1200 original earned articles in 2022, as measured by unique visitors and reach based on BPA audited publications using databases such as Muckrack, Cision and Google Analytics, Damon believes its technological competitive advantage is well infused into its brand, which will continue to provide a market advantage, even as heritage brands look on.

 

Direct to customer distribution

 

Unlike its competitors, Damon is one of a few motorcycle manufacturers selling direct to consumers. Selling over the internet, shipping direct and owning and eventually operating its own Damon experience centers is perhaps the most important sales and distribution advantage the Company has over established players, allowing for high margin retention and a vital information feedback loop from its customers that goes straight into manufacturing and vehicle design, while also providing considerably higher profit margins and lower customer acquisition costs over time. The ability to sell motorcycles directly to consumers has shown to be viable in the electric car space; however, it is uncommon in motorcycles. Damon has enjoyed significant success with the direct sales model to date. Damon’s expects to continue to generate an evangelistic brand and following, with a growing backlog currently extending into 2025/2026.

 

Our SAVES Market

 

We distribute SAVES products in the UK market and part of the European market. Grafiti Limited’s strategy is to build a broader, long term customer base by increasing its sales of Grafiti Limited’s product offerings which will include cloud and Macintosh compatible data analytics and statistical visualization software products. We believe this will enable the Grafiti Limited business to focus on generating more recurring revenues in the future.

Competition Faced by Our SAVES Business

 

We operate in a market characterized by intense competition from competitive products and their distributors and/or resellers, based on such factors as price, quality and depth of product lines and training, as well as service and support provided by the distributor to the customer. We believe we are well equipped to compete effectively with other distributors in all of these areas.

 

Our business is characterized by innovation and rapid change in the products we distribute. Originlab and Graphpad Prism are the main competitors of the products that we sell. These competitive products are characterized by the complexity of their user interfaces and the pre-supposition and in-depth understanding of statistics. Sigmaplot, on the other hand, has an interface that is as intuitive and simple to use and the statistical analyses available in Sigmaplot can be accessed through an intuitive and guided interface that makes the adoption of it by scientists and engineers less cumbersome and very time efficient. Sigmaplot is characterized by the richness of its graphs and their almost infinite customizability relative to our competitors’ graphing solutions. We offer multiple pricing models and believe our products are competitively priced.

 

Our Products and Services

 

Electric Motorcycles

 

Damon’s electric vehicles are developed with a set of proprietary design principles that elevate the brand, deliver differentiated riding experiences and bring emotion to electric propulsion. The initial product portfolio of motorcycle models will be built upon and utilize a single powertrain platform called HyperDrive™. As a patented, monocoque-constructed battery-chassis, HyperDrive houses a proprietary 150 kW 6-phase liquid cooled IPM motor-gearbox and proprietary electronics. This platform approach establishes a capital-efficient path to grow the product line to meet a wide range of future segments and price points, while also supporting a wide range of future motorcycle models and power sizes that share as much as 85 percent common parts. By using the frame of the battery as the motorcycle’s chassis, HyperDrive also achieves valuable weight and cost reduction advantages. With 150 kW of power at its disposal, HyperDrive has been specifically designed to compete with the performance of market leaders in the high-performance motorcycle market, whether internal combustion or electric. Thanks to the energy modularity designed into it, HyperDrive-based motorcycles can be detuned in power, energy and thus cost to support 500 – 1500cc power equivalent classes of motorcycles in both the North American and European markets, with price points ranging from $20,000 - $80,000.

 

The HyperDrive platform is contrasted by the smaller, less powerful and lower cost HyperLite platform, currently in its early design phase. HyperLite will be developed using a very similar design architecture as HyperDrive, enabling the production of a range of light weight, low to medium cost motorcycles and scooters with milder levels of horsepower that are more common in overseas and developing markets. With these two platforms paired with Damon’s three patented cornerstone technologies, CoPilot™, Shift™ and its AI-enabled cloud platform. Damon’s long-term objective is to build a premium, high-tech, electric motorcycle company that rivals the largest incumbents in both profit and annual volume, by providing a technologically enhanced riding experience that is not currently available from any other manufacturer.

 

CoPilot provides a novel rider assistance and warning system integrated into the motorcycle. Shift allows the handlebars and foot pegs to mechatronically adjust on the fly, addressing issues of ergonomic comfort and allowing users to select different riding positions for changing conditions such as a lower, more aerodynamic position for highway use or a more upright position for urban use. Its AI-enabled cloud collects environmental and situational data that, paired with over-the-air software updates, drives a continual loop of collision warning improvements, with an aim to further reduce accident probability over time.

Damon is starting the product portfolio with the HyperSport, the launch product sets a premium and high technology nature of the brand, which currently is responsible for more than half of Damon’s 3,153 reservations. Damon plans to launch additional models made possible by reusing the same HyperDrive powertrain platformcore vehicle chassis and powertrain system to address various market segmentation opportunities while reducing new product and platform development investments. Over time, Damon intends to launch additional, lower cost commuter motorcycles, offered with Damon’s advanced features such as CoPilot, Shift, and connectivity to further expand global appeal.

 

Damon’s strategy is to commercialize and refine costly new technology with a premium family of products in the ‘Hyper’ family of motorcycles for the western market first. This market allows Damon to establish the brand and command the highest margins while ramping up volume. For the large markets in India, Southeast Asia, Asia, Mexico and South America, some of the key challenges include price sensitivity, brand appeal, customer credit and financing options, import tax levies, trade tariffs and challenges relating manufacturing as a foreign entity.

 

Building a successful western brand is the first step to addressing the brand awareness and reputation gap in emerging markets.

 

To address price sensitivities, a scaled down, smaller powertrain platform called HyperLite will be introduced following the initial HyperDrive motorcycles. Using similar battery technology and a smaller multi-variant battery design as the HyperDrive platform, it will support several models that meet the needs of the 125cc to 400cc market segments in emerging markets such as India, SE Asia, Latin America and Mexico. These vehicles are planned to be final assembled, distributed and sold by partners in market.

 

Damon’s HyperLite-based vehicles intend to compete by offering enhanced safety features, technology, or performance. Coupled with cost competitive subscription plans proven in western markets, Damon intends to capture considerable market share by offering a low friction price model with exceptional safety, noise and emissions benefits.

 

One way to determine the size of an emerging market is by conducting early market validation and testing through online pre-sales campaigns, similar to how Damon has built its order book to date. This will be achieved by conducting early web-based marketing to establish appetite for the HyperLite platform. This web-based marketing will be achieved with local language websites that link to sections of the main Damon website. In addition, Damon will look for strategic business-to-business opportunities, such as sales to other motorcycle manufacturers, last mile and other delivery applications that would allow Damon to establish a beachhead in new regions.

 

Software and Connectivity Associated with Our Motorcycles

 

As software-defined vehicles, all of Damon’s cloud backend and control for Damon’s vehicle electronic control unit is an internal development.

Our Operations

 

Sources and Availability of Raw Materials for Our Motorcycle Business

 

As a vehicle designer and manufacturer, Damon designs, develops and tests functional vehicle components such as the motor-gearbox, inverter, electronic control unit, rider display interface, battery pack, cooling system and more. It has also designed and developed the bodywork and chassis system. These components are manufactured by world class suppliers such as Fukuta, Sinbon, Inventec and Wistron. Other specialized components such as brakes, suspension, ABS systems and tires are supplied by major brand names such as Brembo, Ohlins, Continental and Dunlop. All final components and subassemblies and shipped for hand assembly by Damon staff. Damon does not procure any raw materials.

 

Distribution Methods for Our Motorcycle Business

 

Damon is positioned to modernize the way electric motorcycles are brought to market, combining online and in-person touchpoints to yield a superior customer experience with greater cost efficiency. With a meaningful gap between the pace at which vehicle retailing has evolved over the past two decades relative to other sectors, Damon believes there is tremendous upside potential for a model that incorporates direct-to-consumer online practices with pull-based vehicle assembly. This significantly lowers on-hand inventory costs, creates a continuous customer order backlog that generates ongoing demand and eliminates the ability for end customers to negotiate on price.

 

Most Damon customers begin their journey online, with many utilizing a mobile device interfacing via its mobile website or through the Damon app. Damon is investing in digital development to bring those customers to a single front end to address the early stages of their journey and to continue through to purchase.

 

In North America and Europe, Damon intends to offer interested customers the opportunity for a test ride before making a purchase. In addition, Damon plans to open pop-up locations and brand installations to provide customers to interact with Damon products in key locations.

Beyond North America and Europe, Damon has agreed to a partnership with Auteco Mobility (“Auteco”), for the final assembly, distribution, and sales of Damon’s HyperLite, its lower-cost global electric motorcycle platform.

 

Damon’s agreement with Auteco is for the development of the Latin American Market, which also includes a provision for technology licensing. Damon intends to make a depopulated variant of its CoPilot technology to provide safety on lower cost vehicles. In its discussion with Auteco, they proposed installing CoPilot on all their bikes and providing the customers with the ability to unlock the safety features for an additional $10/month. The details of these and other licensing opportunities are still to be finalized, but there appears to be strong demand for Damon’s safety technology. For manufacturing, Damon intends to work with Auteco on the assembly, distribution, and sales of Damon branded motorcycles into the LATAM countries where Auteco has an established network.

 

In addition to Auteco, Damon has received a $5 million investment from, and established a strategic partnership with, PT Ilectra Motor Group and PT Solusi Mobilitas Indonesia for final assembly and distribution in Indonesia with the ability to expand that partnership to all of Southeast Asia. Damon has entered into a relationship agreement with PT Ilectra Motor Group and PT Solusi Mobilitas Indonesia that establishes the strategic partnership and a provided for the purchase of an unsecured promissory note by PT Solusi Mobilitas Indonesia from Damon for $5,000,000. In addition, Damon agreed to invest an aggregate amount of $1,000,000 in PT Ilectra Motor Group.

Regulatory Overview

 

United States

 

NHTSA Safety and Self-Certification Obligations

 

As a manufacturer of electric vehicles, Damon’s electric vehicles are subject to, and must comply with, numerous regulatory requirements established by National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”), including all applicable United States Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (“Safety Standards”). As set forth by the National Traffic and Motor Vehicle Safety Act, Damon must certify that its electric vehicles meet all applicable Safety Standards. At the time of production, Damon intends for its motorcycles to be fully compliant with all such Safety Standards without the need for any exemptions.

 

Damon is also required to comply with, or demonstrate exemptions from, other requirements of federal laws administered by NHTSA, including the consumer information labeling and owner’s manual requirements and various reporting requirements, such as “early warning” reports regarding warranty claims and field incidents, death and injury reports, foreign recall reports and safety defects reports. In addition, Damon’s products are also subject to certain laws and regulations that have been enacted or proposed, e.g., “Right to Repair,” laws, that could require Damon to provide third-party access to its network and/or vehicle systems.

 

EPA Certificate of Conformity

 

The Clean Air Act requires that Damon obtain an Environmental Protection Agency-issued Certificate of Conformity with respect to emissions from its electric vehicles and include labeling providing consumer information such as miles per gallon of gas-equivalent ratings and maximum range on a single charge. The Certificate of Conformity is required each model year for electric vehicles sold in states covered by the Clean Air Act’s standards and is also required each model year for vehicles sold in states that have sought and received a waiver from the Environmental Protection Agency to utilize California standards.

 

Battery Safety and Testing

 

Damon’s battery packs are tested in accordance with industry safety standards, including selected tests specified in the SAE J2464 and J2929 standards as well as tests defined by other standards and regulatory bodies and Damon’s own internal safety and quality tests. These tests evaluate battery function and performance as well as resilience to conditions including immersion, humidity, fire and other potential hazards. Damon is still in the process of testing the vehicle battery pack. Testing has taken place at a battery cell and submodule level with the next phase planned for battery module and full pack abuse testing.

 

European Union

 

Europe Type Approval

 

Damon intends to export electric vehicles to Europe. Unlike the United States, once Damon starts operating in this market, it must obtain pre-approval from regulators to import and sell its electric vehicles into the EU and countries that recognize EU certification or have regulatory regimes aligned with the EU (collectively referred to as “Europe”). The process for certification in Europe is known as “Type Approval” and requires Damon to demonstrate to a regulatory agency in the EU, referred to as a “Competent Authority”, that its electric vehicles meet all EU safety and emission standards.

 

- 103 -

 

 

Type Approval is accomplished through witness testing of vehicles as well as inspection of a representative vehicle intended for production and sale. Once the vehicle type is approved, all vehicles manufactured based on the approved type of vehicle may be produced or imported and sold in Europe.

 

Any changes to an approved vehicle type, including substantial software changes, must go through updated Type Approval by the Competent Authority.

 

EU Emissions Regulations

 

Damon believes Europe’s regulatory environment is generally conducive to the development, production and sale of electric vehicles. Through emission legislation, tax incentives and direct subsidies, EU and non-EU countries in Europe are taking a progressive stance in reducing carbon emissions in the transport sector which may lead to increasing demand for electric vehicles.

 

This is reflected in the EU-wide target of a 90% reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from the transport sector by 2050 (compared to 1990 levels), as part of an economy-wide carbon-neutral target. Moving forward, the European Commission has proposed legislation that would: (i) introduce a “cap and trade” carbon pricing system that would apply to the transport sector from 2026; and (ii) require increased levels of national greenhouse gas reduction commitments (which include the transport sector) pursuant to a revision of the Effort Sharing Regulation, as part of efforts to reduce EU emissions by 55% by 2030 (compared to 1990 levels).

 

Environmental, Health and Safety Regulations

 

Certain of Damon’s operations, properties and products are subject to stringent and comprehensive international, federal, state and local laws and regulations governing matters including environmental protection, occupational health and safety, and the release or discharge of materials into the environment (including air emissions and wastewater discharges). Failure to comply with these laws and regulations may result in the assessment of administrative, civil and criminal penalties, the imposition of investigatory and remedial obligations, and the issuance of orders enjoining some or all of Damon’s operations in affected areas.

 

Damon is also subject to permitting, registration, and other government approval requirements under environmental, health and safety laws and regulations applicable in the jurisdictions in which Damon operates. Those requirements obligate Damon to obtain permits, registrations, and other government approvals from one or more governmental agencies to conduct its operations and sell its products. The requirements vary depending on the location where Damon’s regulated activities are conducted.

 

The following summarizes certain existing environmental, health and safety laws and regulations applicable to Damon’s operations.

 

United States

 

Hazardous Substances

 

Damon is subject to regulations governing the proper handling, storage, transportation and disposal of products containing hazardous substances. Transportation of its battery packs (and of equipment containing them) is governed by regulations that address risks posed during different modes of transport (e.g.¸ air, rail, ground, ocean). Governing transportation regulations in the U.S., issued by the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (“PHMSA”), are based on the United Nations (“UN”) Recommendations and Model Regulations on the Transport of Dangerous Goods as well as related UN Manual Tests and Criteria. Damon plans to test our battery pack against the applicable UN Manual tests for its production battery packs, and the test results demonstrate Damon’s compliance with the PHMSA regulations in the following phases of industrialization.

 

- 104 -

 

 

Damon currently uses transition metal oxide cells in its high-voltage battery packs. Damon battery packs include certain packaging materials that contain trace amounts of hazardous chemicals whose use, storage and disposal is regulated under U.S. federal law. As a result, Damon’s battery packs are subject to federal and state environmental laws and regulations that govern the handling and disposal of waste, including, in some instances, the remanufacture, recycling and disposal of hazardous waste.

 

The laws governing hazardous substances and hazardous waste also may impose strict, joint and several liability for the investigation and remediation of areas where hazardous substances may have been released or disposed. In the course of ordinary operations, Damon, directly and through third parties and contractors, may handle hazardous substances within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act and similar U.S. federal and state statutes and, as a result, may be jointly and severally liable for all or part of the costs required to clean up sites at which any such hazardous substances have been released into the environment.

 

European Union

 

Hazardous Substances

 

Should Damon expand manufacturing into the EU, it would also be subject to regulations governing the proper handling, and disposal of products containing hazardous substances in the EU, including the EU Waste Framework Directive. In relation to Damon’s batteries, disposal would be governed by the Batteries Directive, which imposes, among other obligations, certain requirements in relation to the disposal of batteries, such as that producers of batteries and producers of other products that incorporate a battery are responsible for the waste management of batteries that they place on the market, in particular the financing of collection and recycling schemes.

 

In December 2020, the EU proposed a new Batteries Regulation, which, if passed, would include obligations with respect to the amount of recycled content required in batteries placed on the EU market and would introduce mandatory supply chain due diligence obligations with respect to the materials used in its batteries.

 

Manufacturer and Dealer Regulation in the United States

 

State laws regulate the manufacture, distribution, sale, and service (including delivery) of motorcycles, and generally require vehicle manufacturers and dealers to be licensed in order to sell vehicles directly to customers in the state. Some states, however, do not permit motorcycle manufacturers to be licensed as dealers or to act in the capacity of a dealer. To sell vehicles directly to residents of these states, Damon must conduct the sale out of state over the internet or telephonically.

 

In addition, certain states and territories require service facilities to be available for vehicles sold in the state or territory, which may be interpreted to require service facilities to be available for vehicles sold over the internet or telephonically to residents of the state or territory. Puerto Rico, for example, is one such jurisdiction. Such laws could limit Damon’s ability to sell vehicles in states where Damon either does not maintain service facilities or where Damon does not have retail partners licensed to act as dealers who maintain service facilities within these states.

 

Damon believes that, as a matter of interstate commerce, it may sell an electric vehicle to any consumer in any state in the United States from a Damon retail partner that is duly licensed as a dealer by a state in the United States. That customer may contact a licensed Damon retail partner through the internet, by telephone or visiting the location directly. However, states that prohibit direct sales also restrict traditional sales activities. Accordingly, in order to test drive an electric vehicle or have an in-person discussion with a Damon salesperson regarding issues such as price, financing, trade-ins, options or similar purchase-related topics, a consumer residing in a direct sales-prohibited state would be required to either contact Damon through electronic means (e.g., Internet or telephone) or by traveling out of their home state to visit a licensed Damon retail partner in another state. With respect to service, vehicle manufacturers are prohibited from providing warranty service from an established location within several states. Service for customers residing in those states may in the future be provided by a mobile unit dispatched from a licensed service location in a nearby state where warranty service is allowed or by that customer driving their Damon vehicle (or having it towed) to a state which allows Damon or a licensed Damon retail partner to have a physical service location and perform warranty service activities.

Data Privacy and Cybersecurity Laws and Regulations

 

Damon’s business collects, uses, handles, stores, receives, transmits and otherwise processes different types of information about a range of individuals, including its customers, riders of its electric vehicles, website visitors, users of its mobile application, its employees and job applicants, and employees of companies it does business with (such as vendors and suppliers). As a result, Damon is and may become subject to existing and emerging federal, state, local and international laws and regulations related to the privacy, security and protection of such information.

 

The following is an overview of the legal and regulatory framework by jurisdiction that the Company may be subject to.

 

United States

 

Within the United States there are numerous data privacy and cybersecurity laws and regulations that the Company may be subject to. Example of these laws and regulations include the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) Act, the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, the Telephone Consumer Protection Act, the CAN-SPAM Act, California Consumer Privacy Act (“CCPA”), the California Privacy Rights Act (“CPRA”), the Virginia Consumer Data Protection Act (“VCDPA”), the Colorado Privacy Act (“CPA”), the Connecticut Data Privacy Rights Act (“CTDPA”) and the Utah Consumer Privacy Act (“UCPA”).

 

In the United States, while there is not a single generally applicable federal law governing the processing of personal information, there are federal laws that apply to the processing of certain types of information, or the processing of personal information by certain types of entities, and the Federal Trade Commission and state attorneys general may bring enforcement actions against companies that engage in processing of personal information in a manner that constitutes an “unfair” or “deceptive” trade practice.

 

In addition, certain states have enacted laws relating to data privacy and the processing of information about residents in those states. The CCPA, which went into effect on January 1, 2020, and applies to Damon’s business, imposes obligations and restrictions on businesses that handle personal information of California residents and provides new and enhanced data privacy rights to California residents, including the right to know, the right to delete and the right to opt out of the sale of personal information as well as additional protections for minors. Certain requirements in the CCPA remain uncertain due to ambiguities in the drafting of or incomplete guidance. Adding to the uncertainty, in November 2020, California voters also passed the CPRA, which amends and expands upon the CCPA, imposes additional obligations and sets forth additional privacy rights for California residents. Additional states, Virginia, Colorado, Connecticut and Utah, also recently enacted comprehensive data privacy laws. Virginia passed the VCDPA, Colorado passed the CCPA, Connecticut passed the CTDPA and Utah passed the UCPA. The CPRA and VCDPA become effective on January 1, 2023, the CPA and CTDPA become effective on July 1, 2023, and the UCPA becomes effective on December 31, 2023. There are currently draft CPRA regulations and draft CPA rules that, when passed, will supplement the CPRA and CCPA. Additionally, laws, regulations, and standards covering marketing and advertising activities conducted by telephone, email, mobile devices, and the Internet, may be applicable to Damon’s business, such as the TCPA, the CAN-SPAM Act and similar state and federal consumer protection laws. Damon is also subject to certain laws and regulations that have been enacted or proposed, such as “Right to Repair” laws, that could require it to provide third-party access to its network and/or vehicle systems.

 

European Union and the United Kingdom

 

By expanding into Europe and the UK, Damon will also become subject to laws, regulations and standards covering data protection and marketing and advertising, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and the United Kingdom data protection regime, consisting primarily of the UK General Data Protection Regulation and the UK Data Protection Act (together referred to as the UK GDPR). The GDPR and UK GDPR regulate the processing of data relating to an identifiable individual (personal data) and impose stringent data protection requirements on organizations with significant penalties for noncompliance. The European Data Protection Board has also released data guidelines for connected vehicles, and the upcoming ePrivacy Regulation is in its final stages.

 

- 106 -

 

 

Rest of World

 

Regulators and legislators in jurisdictions around the world continue to propose and enact more stringent data protection and privacy laws. New laws as well as any significant changes to applicable laws, regulations, interpretations of laws or regulations, or market practices regarding privacy and data protection or regarding the manner in which Damon seeks to comply with applicable laws and regulations could require Damon to make modifications to its products, services, policies, procedures, notices and business practices. Many large geographies which may become important to Damon’s future success, including Australia, Brazil, Canada, China and India, have passed or are considering comparable data privacy legislation or regulations. Until prevailing compliance practices standardize, the impact of worldwide privacy regulations on Damon’s business and, consequently, its revenue, could be negatively impacted.

 

Damon prioritizes the trust of its customers and employees and places great emphasis on systems and product security, cybersecurity, and privacy. To earn this trust and comply with the above legal and regulatory framework, Damon is adopting and implementing a variety of technical and organizational security measures, procedures, and protocols designed to protect its systems, products and data, in accordance with the National Institute of Standards and Technology (“NIST”) Cybersecurity Framework.

 

Utilizing the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, Damon has instituted a cybersecurity program designed to address the evolving cyber-threat landscape. This includes a company-wide risk management structure with capabilities to assess direct and indirect vendors and an enterprise Secure Software Development Lifecycle to ensure that Damon reduces its attack surface by remediating vulnerabilities in the development process itself. Additionally, Damon’s identity and access management procedures and controls are consistent with the NIST Cybersecurity Framework, including measures to validate and authenticate the identity of its corporate users.

 

Damon maintains a vulnerability management program that includes periodic scans designed to identify security vulnerabilities and implement remediations for potential customer-impacting issues that are found. In addition, Damon conducts penetration tests, receives threat intelligence, follows incident response procedures, and remediates vulnerabilities according to severity and risk. Further, seeking to implement effective management, control, and protection, Damon has established a centralized, organization-wide view of information assets.

 

Damon’s cloud security program seeks to enable secure cloud architecture deployments and extend security capabilities to the edge of Damon’s network where it interacts with customers. Damon works to increase cybersecurity awareness throughout its organization through education. Damon’s cloud-hosted website and mobile application software services are developed using industry-standard SecDevOps practices and are rigorously tested before deployment. Damon’s product software plan to utilize a zero-trust approach that employs signed certificates, encryption keys, authentication schemes, and cryptography algorithms, and Damon has deployed these measures as appropriate as part of its efforts to secure products’ communications and data transfers, vehicles and their components, including firmware over-the-air (“FOTA”) updates. Additionally, Damon utilizes pre-condition checks, sequence and dependency execution, failure detection, and rollback and recovery when performing updates during the FOTA process.

 

- 107 -

 

 

Damon has also commenced a corporate-wide data privacy program with dedicated cross-functional resources. The objective of Damon’s data privacy program is to facilitate beneficial uses of data to improve its products and services while preserving its customers’ privacy expectations and complying with applicable law. Global data privacy laws and practices are continually evolving, and will continue to guide the operational design, controls, procedures, and policies for Damon’s program. Damon’s strategy accounts for increased risk as its business scales by addressing appropriate security and access controls for customer and employee information. A core tenet of Damon’s privacy program is to implement privacy-by-design principles in both software and hardware development throughout the organization. Damon’s privacy program will continue to evolve and adapt, utilizing industry practices and tailored risk management frameworks, to allow for close collaboration across the organization, particularly between Damon’s information technology and legal functions.

 

Legal Proceedings

 

As of the date of this filing, we are not party to, nor is any of our property the subject of, any material pending legal proceedings reportable under Item 103 of Regulation S-K, except as disclosed below.

 

On March 7, 2025, the Company was served with a notice of civil claim (the “Notice”), which was filed on February 28, 2025, in the Supreme Court of British Columbia, by Damon Jay Mercredi Giraud, former director and CEO of the Company (the “Plaintiff”), against the Company and all of the directors of the Company. The Notice alleges, among other things, that in connection with the Plaintiff’s resignation: (i) the Board agreed to certain settlement terms which included provisions related to the payment of a listing bonus contingent on the Company’s successful listing on a recognized stock exchange (the “Listing Bonus”) and backpay for unpaid wages; and (ii) after the effective date of the Plaintiff’s resignation, the Company provided the Plaintiff with a written settlement agreement which fundamentally altered the terms of the previously agreed settlement terms, including the payment date for the Listing Bonus and backpay for unpaid wages; and (iii) that the Company has not discharged its obligations pursuant to the alleged settlement terms; and (iv) that the Plaintiff received a letter from major shareholders containing unfounded accusations against the Plaintiff and threatening him with legal action, and that such letter was sent by or at the direction of the Company. The Company was required to respond within 21 days after the date a copy of the Notice was served. As of the date of this the filing the Company and its directors have responded to the Notice and the Company denies the allegations of wrongdoing described in the Notice. The relief sought by the Plaintiff includes, among others, specific performance of the allegedly original verbal settlement terms, an order assigning any debts in the Plaintiff’s name owed by the Company to the Company, and special costs, or, in the alternative, breach of an employment contract, and damages for wrongful dismissal.

 

On April 11, 2025, Andy DeFrancesco (“DeFrancesco”) filed a notice of civil claim (the “Claim”) against the Company in the Supreme Court of British Columbia. In the Claim, DeFrancesco alleges that, in or around October 2023, the Company’s executives verbally agreed to issue $3.2 million worth of the Company’s Common Shares to DeFrancesco in exchange for past and future services provided to Damon, including advising and working with the Company on financings and other operational aspects. DeFrancesco further alleges the Common Shares were to be provided as soon as possible and that he delivered an irrevocable direction regarding delivery of the Common Shares in November 2023, however the Company has refused to issue the Common Shares. The relief sought by DeFrancesco includes specific performance of the alleged verbal agreement and damages for loss of opportunities caused by the alleged breach of contract or, alternatively, unjust enrichment on a quantum meruit basis for the services allegedly provided by DeFrancesco. The Company filed a response to the Civil Claim (defense) on May 9, 2025, denying all allegations.

Board Composition and Election of Directors

 

The Board is comprised of five members made up of a single class of directors. Each director is subject to re-election on an annual basis at each annual meeting of shareholders. The Board of Directors may establish the authorized number of directors from time to time by ordinary resolution. If, at any meeting of shareholders at which there should be an election of directors, the places of any of retiring directors are not filled by that election, those retiring directors who are not re-elected and who are asked by the newly elected directors to continue in office will, if willing to do so, continue in office to complete the number of directors until further new directors are elected at a meeting of shareholders convened for that purpose. If any such election or continuance of directors does not result in the election or continuance of the then-current number of directors, the number of directors of the Company shall be deemed to be set at the number of directors actually elected or continued in office. Our directors hold office until the earlier of their death, resignation, retirement, disqualification or removal or until their successors have been duly elected and qualified. In the event of a casual vacancy in our Board, the remaining directors may fill such vacancy until the next annual meeting of shareholders.

Board Leadership Structure

 

The Board and management believe that the choice of whether the Chair of the Board should be an executive of our company, or a non-executive or independent director, depends upon a number of factors, taking into account the candidates for the position and the best interests of our Company and our shareholders. Shashi Tripathi serves as the Board Chair and is an independent director. However, the Board may decide in the future to unite the roles of Chairman and Chief Executive Officers if it determines that such structure provides better and more effective oversight and management of the Company. In such case, the Board may also consider appointing a lead independent director, if the circumstances warrant it. When the Board convenes for a meeting, it is expected that the nonmanagement directors will meet in one or more executive sessions, if the circumstances warrant it.

 

Role of Board in Risk Oversight Process

 

The Board is responsible for the oversight of the Company’s risk management processes and, either as a whole or through its committees, regularly discusses with management the Company’s major risk exposures, their potential impact on the Company’s business and the steps the Company takes to manage them. The risk oversight process includes receiving regular reports from board committees and members of senior management to enable the Board to understand the Company’s risk identification, risk management and risk mitigation strategies with respect to areas of potential material risk, including operations, finance, legal, regulatory, strategic and reputational risk.

 

- 114 -

 

 

The Audit Committee reviews and monitors the processes in place to identify and manage the principal risks that could impact our financial reporting. It also reviews and approves corporate investment policies and assesses the effectiveness of our overall process for identifying principal business risks. Oversight by the Audit Committee includes direct communication with the Company’s external auditors, and discussions with management regarding significant risk exposures and the actions management has taken to limit, monitor or control such exposures. The Compensation Committee is responsible for assessing whether any of the Company’s compensation policies or programs has the potential to encourage excessive risk-taking. The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee manages risks associated with the independence of the Board and corporate practices. While each committee is responsible for evaluating certain risks and overseeing the management of such risks, the entire Board is regularly informed through committee reports about such risks. Matters of significant strategic risk is considered by the Board as a whole.

 

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation

 

No member of the Compensation Committee serves or served during the fiscal year ended June 30, 2024, as a member of the Board or compensation committee of a company that has one or more executive officers serving as a member of the board of directors or compensation committee.

 

Director Qualifications

 

The Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee is responsible for reviewing with the Board, on an annual basis, the appropriate characteristics, skills and experience required for the Board as a whole and its individual members. There is no difference in the manner in which the Nominating and Corporate Governance Committee evaluates nominees for director based on whether the nominee is recommended by a shareholder.

 

Arrangements between Officers and Directors

 

To our knowledge, there is no arrangement or understanding between any of our officers or directors and any other person, including directors, pursuant to which the officer was selected to serve as an officer or director.

 

Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

 

The Company adopted a written code of business conduct and ethics that applies to its directors, officers and employees, including its principal executive officer, principal financial officer, principal accounting officer or controller, or persons performing similar functions. A copy of the code is posted on the corporate website at https://damon.com/. In addition, the Company intends to post on its website all disclosures that are required by law concerning any amendments to, or waivers from, any provision of the code. The reference to the Company’s website address does not constitute incorporation by reference of the information contained at or available through its website, and you should not consider it to be a part of this Offering Circular.

 

Foreign Private Issuer Status

 

The Company has determined that it qualifies as a “foreign private issuer,” as such term is defined in Rule 3b-4 under the Exchange Act, based on the applicable criteria as of the last business day of the Company’s most recently completed second fiscal quarter, ended December 31, 2024. Notwithstanding the Company’s qualification as a foreign private issuer, the Company has voluntarily chosen to file with the SEC periodic and current reports and registration statements on forms prescribed for U.S. domestic issuers, including annual reports on Form 10-K, quarterly reports on Form 10-Q, including this quarterly report, current reports on Form 8-K, and registration statements on Form S-1, instead of filing on the reporting and registration forms available to foreign private issuers. The SEC Forms prescribed for U.S. domestic issuers are more detailed and extensive in certain respects, and must be filed more promptly, than the forms currently available to foreign private issuers.

 

Although the Company has chosen to file periodic and current reports on U.S. domestic issuer forms, the Company will maintain its status as a foreign private issuer as long as it meets the qualifications for a foreign private issuer under the Exchange Act. Accordingly, the Company intends to avail itself of exemptions from certain provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder that are applicable to U.S. domestic public companies.

 

- 115 -

 

 

As a foreign private issuer, the Company will avail itself of the following exemptions from the provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules thereunder that are applicable to U.S. domestic issuers, including:

 

sections of the Exchange Act that regulate the solicitation of proxies, consents or authorizations in respect of any securities registered under the Exchange Act; and

 

sections of the Exchange Act that require insiders to file public reports of their share ownership and trading activities and that impose liability on insiders who profit from trades made in a short period of time.

 

Accordingly, the Company’s officers, directors and principal shareholders are exempt from the requirements to report transactions in the Company’s equity securities and from the short-swing profit liability provisions contained in Section 16 of the Exchange Act. As a foreign private issuer, the Company is also not subject to the requirements of Regulation FD (Fair Disclosure) promulgated under the Exchange Act.

Advisory Services and Consulting Agreement with Nadir Ali

 

The Company paid Mr. Ali a fee of $15,000 per month for services rendered to the Company since April 1, 2024 and until the closing of the Business Combination.

Mr. Ali has the right to terminate the Ali Consulting Agreement with 30 days’ notice for specified reasons, including the Company’s failure to make timely payments, gross negligence, recklessness, willful misconduct, or the filing of bankruptcy by the Company. In such cases, the monthly fee for the remainder of the Ali Guaranteed Period will continue to be paid.

 

Stock Incentive Plan

 

On June 11, 2024, the Company’s Board adopted a Stock Incentive Plan (the “Stock Incentive Plan”), which was approved by the Company’s the sole shareholder on June 11, 2024. Below is a summary of the Stock Incentive Plan.

 

Overview and Purpose

 

The Stock Incentive Plan provides flexibility to the Company to grant equity-based incentive awards (each, an “Award”) in the form of Options, RSUs, Restricted Shares, PSUs and DSUs, as described in further detail below.

 

The purpose of the Stock Incentive Plan is to, among other things, provide the Company with a share-related mechanism to attract, retain and motivate qualified directors, employees and consultants of the Company and its subsidiaries, to reward such of those directors, employees and consultants as may be granted awards under the Stock Incentive Plan by the Board from time to time for their contributions toward the long-term goals and success of the Company, and to enable and encourage such directors, employees and consultants to acquire Shares as long-term investments and proprietary interests in the Company.

 

- 117 -

 

 

Material Terms of the Stock Incentive Plan

 

Shares Subject to the Stock Incentive Plan

 

The maximum aggregate number of common shares that may be issued pursuant to Awards granted under the Plan (the “Share Reserve”) shall initially be 10,000,000, and the Share Reserve shall automatically increase on the first day of each calendar year beginning January 1, 2025, by a number of shares equal to the greatest of: (i) 3,000,000 Common Shares; (ii) twenty percent (20%) of the outstanding Common shares on the last day of the immediately preceding calendar quarter; or (iii) such number of Common Shares determined by the Plan Administrator. The Company shall at all times while the Stock Incentive Plan is in effect reserve such number of Common Shares as will be sufficient to satisfy the requirements of outstanding Awards granted under the Stock Incentive Plan. The Common Shares subject to the Stock Incentive Plan shall be either authorized and unissued or treasury common shares. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the aggregate number of Common Shares that may be issued during the term of the Stock Incentive Plan may not exceed 40,000,000. For clarity, the Share Reserve is a limitation on the number of Common Shares that may be issued pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan. As a single Common Share may be subject to grant more than once (e.g., if a Common Share subject to an Award is forfeited, it may be made subject to grant again under the Stock Incentive Plan), the Share Reserve is not a limit on the number of Awards that can be granted. Up to 10,000,000 Common Shares may (but need not be) issued pursuant to the exercise of “incentive stock options” (within the meaning of Section 422 of the United States Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)) granted under the Stock Incentive Plan.

 

Any Common Shares issued by the Company through the assumption or substitution of outstanding stock options or other equity-based awards from an acquired company will not reduce the number of Common Shares available for issuance pursuant to the exercise of Awards granted under the Stock Incentive Plan.

 

Administration of the Stock Incentive Plan

 

The Stock Incentive Plan designates the Board as the initial Plan Administrator (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan), subject to the ability of the Board to delegate from time to time all or any of the powers conferred on the Plan Administrator to a committee of the Board. The Board has resolved to delegate all powers of administration of the Stock Incentive Plan to the Compensation Committee.

 

The Plan Administrator determines which directors, officers, consultants and employees are eligible to receive Awards under the Stock Incentive Plan, the time or times at which Awards may be granted, the conditions under which awards may be granted or forfeited to the Company, the number of Common Shares to be covered by any Award, the exercise price of any Award, whether restrictions or limitations are to be imposed on the Common Shares issuable pursuant to grants of any Award, and the nature of any such restrictions or limitations, any acceleration of exercisability or vesting, or waiver of termination regarding any Award, based on such factors as the Plan Administrator may determine.

 

In addition, the Plan Administrator interprets the Stock Incentive Plan and may adopt guidelines and other rules and regulations relating to the Stock Incentive Plan and make all other determinations and take all other actions necessary or advisable for the implementation and administration of the Stock Incentive Plan.

 

Eligibility

 

All directors, employees and consultants are eligible to participate in the Stock Incentive Plan. The extent to which any such individual is entitled to receive a grant of an Award pursuant to the Stock Incentive Plan will be determined in the sole and absolute discretion of the Plan Administrator.

 

Types of Awards

 

Awards of Options, RSUs, Restricted Shares, PSUs and DSUs may be made under the Stock Incentive Plan. All of the Awards described below are subject to the conditions, limitations, restrictions, exercise price, vesting, settlement and forfeiture provisions determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, subject to such limitations provided in the Stock Incentive Plan and will generally be evidenced by an Award agreement. In addition, subject to the limitations provided in the Stock Incentive Plan and in accordance with applicable law, the Plan Administrator may accelerate or defer the vesting or payment of Awards, cancel or modify outstanding Awards and waive any condition imposed with respect to Awards or common shares issued pursuant to Awards.

An Option entitles a holder thereof to purchase a prescribed number of Common Shares at an exercise price set at the time of the grant. The Plan Administrator will establish the exercise price at the time each Option is granted. Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator and specified in an Award agreement, exercise price of an Option granted under the Stock Incentive Plan will not be less than the greater of the closing market price of the Common Shares on (i) the trading day prior to the date of grant of the Option or (ii) the date of grant of the Option. Subject to any accelerated termination as set forth in the Stock Incentive Plan, each Option expires on its respective expiry date. The Plan Administrator will have the authority to determine the vesting terms applicable to grants of Options. Once an Option becomes vested, it shall remain vested and shall be exercisable until expiration or termination of the Option, unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator, or as otherwise set forth in any written employment agreement, Award agreement or other written agreement between the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and the participant. The Plan Administrator has the right to accelerate the date upon which any Option becomes exercisable. The Plan Administrator may provide at the time of granting an Option that the exercise of that Option is subject to restrictions, in addition to those specified in the Stock Incentive Plan, such as vesting conditions relating to the attainment of specified performance goals.

 

Unless otherwise specified by the Plan Administrator at the time of granting an Option and set forth in the particular Award agreement, an exercise notice must be accompanied by payment of the exercise price. A participant may, in lieu of exercising an Option pursuant to an exercise notice, elect to surrender such Option to the Company (a “Cashless Exercise”) in consideration for an amount from the Company equal to (i) the closing market price of the Common Shares issuable on the exercise of such Option (or portion thereof) as of the date such Option (or portion thereof) is exercised, less (ii) the aggregate exercise price of the Option (or portion thereof) surrendered relating to such Common Shares (the “In-the-Money Amount”), by written notice to the Company indicating the number of Options such participant wishes to exercise using the Cashless Exercise, and such other information that the Company may require. Subject to the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan, the Company will satisfy payment of the In-the-Money Amount by delivering to the participant such number of Common Shares having a fair market value equal to the In-the-Money Amount.

 

Restricted Share Units

 

A RSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Common Shares credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of the Company which entitles the holder to receive one Common Shares (or the value thereof) for each RSU after a specified vesting period. The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant RSUs to any participant in respect of a bonus or similar payment in respect of services rendered by the applicable participant in a taxation year.

 

The number of RSUs (including fractional RSUs) granted at any particular time under the Stock Incentive Plan will be calculated by dividing: (a) the amount that is to be paid in RSUs, as determined by the Plan Administrator; by (b) the greater of (i) the market price of a Common Shares on the date of grant and (ii) such amount as determined by the Plan Administrator in its sole discretion.

 

The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to determine the settlement and any vesting terms applicable to the grant of RSUs, provided that the terms applicable to RSUs granted to U.S. taxpayers comply with Section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable.

 

Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested RSU for one fully paid and non-assessable Common Shares in respect of each vested RSU.

 

Restricted Shares

 

The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant Restricted Shares to any participant. Restricted Shares shall be subject to such restrictions on transferability, risk of forfeiture and other restrictions, if any, as the Plan Administrator may impose, which restrictions may lapse separately or in combination at such times, under such circumstances (including based on achievement of performance goals and/or future service requirements), in such installments or otherwise, as the Plan Administrator may determine at the date of grant or thereafter. During the restricted period applicable to a Restricted Share, the Restricted Share may not be sold, transferred, pledged, hypothecated, margined or otherwise encumbered by the participant.

 

- 119 -

 

 

As a condition to the grant of an Award of Restricted Shares, the Plan Administrator may allow a participant to elect, or may require, that any cash dividends paid on a Restricted Share be automatically reinvested in additional Restricted Shares, applied to the purchase of additional Awards under this Plan or deferred without interest to the date of vesting of the associated Award of Restricted Shares; provided, that, to the extent applicable, any such election is intended to comply with Section 409A. Unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator and specified in the applicable Award Agreement, Common Shares distributed in connection with a share split or share dividend, and other property (other than cash) distributed as a dividend, will be subject to restrictions and a risk of forfeiture to the same extent as the Restricted Share with respect to which such share or other property has been distributed.

 

Performance Share Units

 

A PSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Common Shares credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of the Company which entitles the holder to receive one Common Shares for each PSU after specific performance-based vesting criteria determined by the Plan Administrator, in its sole discretion, have been satisfied. The Plan Administrator may, from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan and such other terms and conditions as the Plan Administrator may prescribe, grant PSUs to any participant in respect of services rendered by the applicable participant in a tax year. The performance goals to be achieved during any performance period, the length of any performance period, the amount of any PSUs granted, the effect of termination of a participant’s service and the settlement terms pursuant to any PSU will be determined by the Plan Administrator and by the other terms and conditions of any PSU, all as set forth in the applicable Award agreement.

 

The Plan Administrator shall have the authority to determine the settlement and any vesting terms applicable to the grant of PSUs, provided that the terms applicable to PSUs granted to U.S. taxpayers comply with Section 409A of the Code, to the extent applicable. Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested PSU for one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share in respect of each vested PSU.

 

Deferred Share Units

 

A DSU is a unit equivalent in value to a Common Shares credited by means of a bookkeeping entry in the books of the Company which entitles the holder to receive one Common Share (or, at the election of the holder and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, the cash value thereof) for each DSU on a future date. The Board may fix from time to time a portion of the total compensation (including annual retainer) paid by the Company to a director in a calendar year for service on the Board (the “Director Fees”) that are to be payable in the form of DSUs. In addition, each director is given, subject to the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan, the right to elect to receive a portion of the cash Director Fees owing to them in the form of DSUs.

 

Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular Award agreement, DSUs shall vest immediately upon grant. The number of DSUs (including fractional DSUs) granted at any particular time will be calculated by dividing: (a) the amount of Director Fees that are to be paid in DSUs, as determined by the Plan Administrator; by (b) the market price of a Common Share on the date of grant. Upon settlement, holders will redeem each vested DSU for: (a) one fully paid and non-assessable Common Share in respect of each vested DSU, or (b) at the election of the holder and subject to the approval of the Plan Administrator, a cash payment on the date of settlement. Any cash payments made under the Stock Incentive Plan by the Company to a participant in respect of DSUs to be redeemed for cash shall be calculated by multiplying the number of DSUs to be redeemed for cash by the market price per Common Share as at the settlement date.

 

Dividend Equivalents

 

Except as otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator or as set forth in the particular Award agreement, RSUs, PSUs and DSUs shall be credited with dividend equivalents in the form of additional RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, as applicable, as of each dividend payment date in respect of which normal cash dividends are paid on Common Shares. Dividend equivalents shall vest in proportion to, and settle in the same manner as, the Awards to which they relate. Such dividend equivalents shall be computed by dividing: (a) the amount obtained by multiplying the amount of the dividend declared and paid per Common Share by the number of RSUs, PSUs and DSUs, as applicable, held by the participant on the record date for the payment of such dividend; by (b) the market price at the close of the first business day immediately following the dividend record date, with fractions computed to three decimal places.

Black-out Periods

 

In the event an Award expires, at a time when a scheduled blackout is in place or an undisclosed material change or material fact in the affairs of the Company exists, the expiry of such Award will be the date that is ten business days after which such scheduled blackout terminates or there is no longer such undisclosed material change or material fact.

 

Term

 

No Awards may be granted under the Stock Incentive Plan on or after the tenth anniversary of the Stock Incentive Plan.

 

While the Stock Incentive Plan does not stipulate a specific term for Awards granted thereunder, as discussed below, Awards may not expire beyond 10 years from its date of grant, except where shareholder approval is received or where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period of the Company. All Awards must vest and settle in accordance with the provisions of the Stock Incentive Plan and any applicable Award agreement, and which Award agreement may include an expiry date for a specific Award.

 

Termination of Employment or Services

 

The following describes the impact of certain events upon the participants under the Stock Incentive Plan, including termination for cause, resignation, termination without cause, disability, death or retirement, subject, in each case, to the terms of a participant’s applicable employment agreement, Award agreement or other written agreement:

 

(a)Termination for Cause or upon Termination: Any Option or other Award held by the participant that has not been exercised, surrendered or settled as of the termination date (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the termination date;

 

(b)Termination without Cause: A portion of any unvested Options or other Awards shall immediately vest, such portion to be equal to the number of unvested Options or other Awards held by the participant as of the termination date multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the termination date and the denominator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the date any unvested Options or other Awards were originally scheduled to vest. Any vested Options may be exercised by the participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (a) the expiry date of such Option; and (b) the date that is 90 days after the termination date. If an Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (a) or (b), the Option shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested Award other than an Option, such Award will be settled within 90 days after the termination date;

 

(c)Disability: A portion of any unvested Options or other Awards shall immediately vest, such portion to be equal to the number of unvested Options or other Awards held by the participant as of the termination date multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the termination date and the denominator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the date any unvested Options or other Awards were originally scheduled to vest. Any vested Option may be exercised by the participant at any time until the expiry date of such Option. Any vested Option may be exercised by the participant at any time until the expiry date of such Option. Any vested Award other than an Option will be settled within 90 days after the termination date;

 

(d)Death: A portion of any unvested Options or other Awards shall immediately vest, such portion to be equal to the number of unvested Options or other Awards held by the participant as of the termination date multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the termination date and the denominator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the date any unvested Options or other Awards were originally scheduled to vest. Any vested Option may be exercised by the participant’s beneficiary or legal representative (as applicable) at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (a) the expiry date of such Option; and (b) the first anniversary of the date of the death of such participant. If an Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (a) or (b), the Option shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested Award other than an Option, such Award will be settled with the participant’s beneficiary or legal representative (as applicable) within 90 days after the date of the Participant’s death; and

 

- 121 -

 

 

(e)Retirement: A portion of any unvested Options or other Awards shall immediately vest, such portion to be equal to the number of unvested Options or other Awards held by the participant as of the termination date multiplied by a fraction the numerator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the termination date and the denominator of which is the number of days between the date of grant and the date any unvested Options or other Awards were originally scheduled to vest. Any vested Option may be exercised by the participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (a) the expiry date of such Option; and (b) the third anniversary of the participant’s date of retirement. If an Option remains unexercised upon the earlier of (a) or (b), the Option shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled for no consideration upon the termination of such period. In the case of a vested Award other than an Option, such Award will be settled within 90 days after the participant’s retirement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if, following his or her retirement, the participant commences on the Commencement Date (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan) employment, consulting or acting as a director of the Company or any of its subsidiaries (or in an analogous capacity) or otherwise as a service provider to any person that carries on or proposes to carry on a business competitive with the Company or any of its subsidiaries, any Option or other Award held by the participant that has not been exercised or settled as of the commencement date shall be immediately forfeited and cancelled as of the Commencement Date.

 

Change in Control

 

Under the Stock Incentive Plan, except as may be set forth in an employment agreement, Award agreement or other written agreement between the Company or a subsidiary of the Company and a participant:

 

(a)the Plan Administrator may, without the consent of any participant, take such steps as it deems necessary or desirable, including to cause: (i) the conversion or exchange of any outstanding Awards into or for rights or other securities of substantially equivalent value, as determined by the Plan Administrator in its discretion, in any entity participating in or resulting from a Change in Control (as defined below); (ii) outstanding Awards to vest and become exercisable, realizable or payable, or restrictions applicable to an Award to lapse, in whole or in part prior to or upon consummation of a Change in Control, and, to the extent the Plan Administrator determines, terminate upon or immediately prior to the effectiveness of such Change in Control; (iii) the termination of an Award in exchange for an amount of cash and/or property, if any, equal to the amount that would have been attained upon the exercise or settlement of such Award or realization of the participant’s rights as of the date of the occurrence of the transaction; (iv) the replacement of such Award with other rights or property selected by the Board in its sole discretion where such replacement would not adversely affect the holder; or (v) any combination of the foregoing; provided that: (A) in taking any of the foregoing actions, the Plan Administrator will not be required to treat all Awards similarly in the transaction; and (B) in the case of Options, RSUs and PSUs held by a Canadian taxpayer, the Plan Administrator may not cause the Canadian taxpayer to receive any property in connection with a Change in Control other than rights to acquire shares of a corporation or units of a “mutual fund trust” (as defined in the Income Tax Act (Canada) (the “Tax Act”)) of the Company or a “qualifying person” (as defined in the Tax Act) that does not deal at arm’s length (for purposes of the Tax Act) with the Company, as applicable, at the time such rights are issued or granted;

 

- 122 -

 

 

(b)if within 12 months following the completion of a transaction resulting in a Change in Control (as defined below), a participant’s employment, consultancy or directorship is terminated by the Company or a subsidiary of the Company without Cause (as defined in the Stock Incentive Plan), without any action by the Plan Administrator:

 

(i)any unvested Awards held by the participant at the termination date shall immediately vest; and

 

(ii)any vested Awards may be exercised, surrendered to the Company, or settled by the participant at any time during the period that terminates on the earlier of: (i) the expiry date of such Award; and (ii) the date that is 90 days after the termination date. Any Award that has not been exercised, surrendered or settled at the end of such period being immediately forfeited and cancelled; and

 

(c)unless otherwise determined by the Plan Administrator, if, as a result of a Change in Control, the common shares will cease trading on Nasdaq, the Company may terminate all of the Awards (other than an Option, RSU or PSU held by a participant that is a resident of Canada for the purposes of the TaxAct) at the time of and subject to the completion of the Change in Control transaction by paying to each holder at or within a reasonable period of time following completion of such Change in Control transaction an amount for each Award equal to the fair market value of the Award held by such participant as determined by the Plan Administrator, acting reasonably, provided that any vested Awards granted to U.S. taxpayers will be settled within 90 days of the Change in Control.

 

Subject to certain exceptions, a “Change in Control” includes: (i) any transaction pursuant to which a person or group acquires more than 50% of the outstanding common shares (assuming conversion of the other shares); (ii) the sale of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets; (iii) the dissolution or liquidation of the Company; (iv) the acquisition of the Company via consolidation, merger, exchange of securities, purchase of assets, amalgamation, statutory arrangement or otherwise; (v) individuals who comprise the Board at the last annual meeting of shareholders (the “Incumbent Board”) cease to constitute at least a majority of the Board, unless the election, or nomination for election by the shareholders, of any new director was approved by a vote of at least a majority of the Incumbent Board, in which case such new director shall be considered as a member of the Incumbent Board; or (vi) any other event which the Board determines to constitute a change in control of the Company.

 

Non-Transferability of Awards

 

Except as permitted by the Plan Administrator and to the extent that certain rights may pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon death of a participant, by will or as required by law, no assignment or transfer of Awards, whether voluntary, involuntary, by operation of law or otherwise, vests any interest or right in such Awards whatsoever in any assignee or transferee and immediately upon any assignment or transfer, or any attempt to make the same, such Awards will terminate and be of no further force or effect. To the extent that certain rights to exercise any portion of an outstanding Award pass to a beneficiary or legal representative upon the death of a participant, the period in which such Award can be exercised by such beneficiary or legal representative shall not exceed one year from the participant’s death.

 

Amendments to the Stock Incentive Plan

 

The Plan Administrator may also from time to time, without notice and without approval of the holders of Common Shares, amend, modify, change, suspend or terminate the Stock Incentive Plan or any Awards granted pursuant thereto as it, in its discretion, determines appropriate, provided that: (a) no such amendment, modification, change, suspension or termination of the Stock Incentive Plan or any Award granted pursuant thereto may materially impair any rights of a participant or materially increase any obligations of a participant under the Stock Incentive Plan without the consent of such participant, unless the Plan Administrator determines such adjustment is required or desirable in order to comply with any applicable securities laws or stock exchange requirements; and (b) any amendment that would cause an Award held by a U.S. Taxpayer to be subject to the income inclusion under Section 409A of the Code shall be null and void ab initio.

 

- 123 -

 

 

Notwithstanding the above, the approval of shareholders is required to effect any of the following amendments to the Stock Incentive Plan:

 

(a)increasing the number of Common Shares reserved for issuance under the Stock Incentive Plan, except pursuant to the provisions in the Stock Incentive Plan which permit the Plan Administrator to make equitable adjustments in the event of transactions affecting the Company or its capital;

 

(b)extending the term of an Option award beyond the original expiry date (except where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period applicable to the participant or within ten business days following the expiry of such a blackout period);

 

(c)extending the term of an Option award beyond the original expiry date (except where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period applicable to the participant or within ten business days following the expiry of such a blackout period);

 

(d)permitting an Option award to be exercisable beyond ten years from its date of grant (except where an expiry date would have fallen within a blackout period);

 

(e)increasing or removing the limits on the participation of directors;

 

(f)permitting Awards to be transferred to a person;

 

(g)changing the eligible participants; and

 

(h)deleting or reducing the range of amendments which require approval of the shareholders.

 

Except for the items listed above, amendments to the Stock Incentive Plan will not require shareholder approval. Such amendments include (but are not limited to): (a) amending the general vesting provisions of an Award; (b) amending the provisions for early termination of Awards in connection with a termination of employment or service; (c) adding covenants of the Company for the protection of the participants; (d) amendments that are desirable as a result of changes in law in any jurisdiction where a participant resides; and (e) curing or correcting any ambiguity or defect or inconsistent provision or clerical omission or mistake or manifest error. Further, the Plan Administrator retains discretion under the Stock Incentive Plan to reprice out-of-the-money Options without obtaining shareholder approve.

 

Anti-Hedging Policy

 

Participants are restricted from purchasing financial instruments such as prepaid variable forward contracts, equity swaps, collars, or units of exchange funds that are designed to hedge or offset a decrease in market value of Awards granted to them.

 

Policies and Practices for Granting Option Awards

 

The Company has not granted any new Option awards since becoming a reporting company, other than the replacement options issued to option holders of Damon Motors pursuant to the plan of arrangement between the Company and Damon Motors. The Compensation Committee does not plan to take material non-public information into account when determining the timing and terms of option Awards, and the Company does not plan to time the disclosure of such material non-public information for purposes of affecting the exercise price of the Options or the value of executive compensation. In addition, the Company does not plan to grant Options during the four business days prior to or the one business day following the filing of a periodic report on Form 10-Q or Form 10-K, or the filing or furnishing of a Form 8-K that discloses material non-public information.

Certain Relationships and Related Party Transactions

 

Agreements Entered into by Grafiti Limited or Grafiti Holdings in connection with the SAVES Business

 

Grafiti Limited is a primary distributor in the UK and Western European region of the SAVES products. Historically, Grafiti UK relied on advances from the Parent, as its parent to satisfy expenses.

In addition, Grafiti Limited recorded cost of sales for the purchase of the SAVES software from the Parent at market value based on the price that the Parent would charge third parties for the purchase of its software with industry consistent margins.

 

In connection with the Solutions Divestiture, the Parent contributed the License, along with other assets and businesses, to Grafiti LLC, then a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Parent. As reported in the current report on Form 8-K filed by the Parent on February 23, 2024, the Parent sold 100% of the equity interest in Grafiti LLC to an entity controlled by Nadir Ali, our former Chief Executive Officer and sole director prior to the closing of the Business Combination, who also owned more than 5% of Grafiti Holding common shares immediately prior to the closing of the Business Combination.

In accordance with the terms of the Founder Agreement between Mr. Giraud and the Company, all 1,391,181 Multiple Voting Shares held by Mr. Giraud and his controlled entity were converted into common shares on a one-for-one basis. Summarized below are the Coattail Agreement and the Founder Agreement Damon entered into with Mr. Giraud upon the Closing.

 

- 132 -

 

 

Coattail Agreement and Founder Agreement

 

In connection with the issuance of 1,391,181 Multiple Voting Shares to Mr. Giraud on the closing of the Business Combination, the Company and Mr. Giraud entered into a coattail agreement among Mr. Giraud, the Company and a trustee (the “Coattail Agreement”), and a founder agreement between Mr. Giraud and the Company (the “Founder Agreement”).

 

Under the Coattail Agreement, any sale of Multiple Voting Shares (other than a transfer to a pledgee as security) by a holder of Multiple Voting Shares party to the Coattail Agreement will be conditional upon the transferee becoming a party to the Coattail Agreement, to the extent such transferred Multiple Voting Shares are not automatically converted into common shares in accordance with the Articles.

 

The Coattail Agreement contains provisions for authorizing action by the trustee to enforce the rights under the Coattail Agreement on behalf of the holders of the common shares. The obligation of the trustee to take such action will be conditional on the combined company or holders of the common shares providing such funds and indemnity as the trustee may reasonably require. No holder of common shares will have the right, other than through the trustee, to institute any action or proceeding or to exercise any other remedy to enforce any rights arising under the Coattail Agreement unless the trustee fails to act on a request authorized by holders of not less than 10% of the outstanding common shares and reasonable funds and indemnity have been provided to the trustee.

 

Other than in respect of non-material amendments and waivers that do not adversely affect the interests of holders of common shares, the Coattail Agreement provides that, among other things, it may not be amended, and no provision thereof may be waived, unless, prior to giving effect to such amendment or waiver, the following have been obtained: (a) the consent of any applicable securities regulatory authority in Canada or the United States; and (b) the approval of at least two-thirds of the votes cast by holders of common shares represented at a meeting duly called for the purpose of considering such amendment or waiver, excluding votes attached to common shares held by the holder of Multiple Voting Shares or their affiliates and related parties and any persons who have an agreement to purchase Multiple Voting Shares on terms which would constitute a sale or disposition for purposes of the Coattail Agreement, other than as permitted thereby. Non-material amendments and waivers that do not adversely affect the interests of holders of common shares shall be subject to the approval of any applicable exchange on which the common shares trade but shall not require approval of holders of common shares.

 

The Coattail Agreement provides that, in the event that a lender transfers or takes beneficial ownership of Multiple Voting Shares pursuant to an enforcement by a lender of a pledge of, or other security interest in, such Multiple Voting Shares, the applicable Multiple Voting Shares will automatically be converted into common shares pursuant to the Articles such that, as a result of such enforcement, the applicable lender does not hold Multiple Voting Shares. Any

 

Multiple Voting Share held by a lender pursuant to a pledge or other grant of a security interest shall be deemed to continue to be held by Jay Giraud so long as the lender has not transferred or taken beneficial ownership of such Multiple Voting Share pursuant to an enforcement by the lender of a pledge of, or other security interest in, such Multiple Voting Shares. A lender will have no rights as a shareholder until the occurrence of an event of default under the loan agreement.

 

No provision of the Coattail Agreement will limit the rights of any holders of common shares under applicable law.

 

Under the Founder Agreement, Mr. Giraud shall not be entitled to transfer any of the Multiple Voting Shares to permitted transferees. Jay Giraud also agreed to convert his Multiple Voting Shares into common shares upon:

 

The shipment of 1,000 motorcycles to customers by the combined company; and

 

Jay Giraud ceasing to be an executive officer of the Company due to his voluntary resignation as both a director and an officer of the combined company, or his termination as an executive officer for cause (which termination has been confirmed by a court of competent jurisdiction, or in respect of which a claim is not brought within 90 days following such termination).

 

- 133 -

 

 

In addition, under the Founder Agreement, Mr. Giraud agreed that he will not vote or cause to be voted more than one-seventh of the number of Multiple Voting Shares that he owns, or over which he has voting control, in favor, against or withheld on a vote for the election or removal directors, except in the case of a vote for the election of directors proposed in any management information circular of the Company, in which case Mr. Giraud will be entitled to vote all Multiple Voting Shares held by him in favor of the slate of directors proposed in such management information circular.

 

Mr. Giraud resigned as an executive officer and director of the Company on December 4, 2024; accordingly, the Multiple Voting Shares that owned by him are deemed converted into an equivalent number of Common Shares as of such date.

 

Lock-Up Agreement

 

In connection with the execution of the Business Combination Agreement, Mr. Giraud executed a lock-up agreement to be subject to lock-up restrictions for the period from the closing of the Business Combination to 180 days after the closing, unless released earlier by the Company.

 

Indemnification Agreements Entered by Damon with Directors and Officers

 

The Company’s Articles contain provisions limiting the liability of directors and provide that the Company will indemnify each of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted under law. In addition, we have entered into an indemnification agreement with each of our directors, which requires us to indemnify them.

 

PRINCIPAL SHAREHOLDERS

 

The following table sets forth the beneficial ownership of our Common Shares as of the date of this filing by:

 

each person who is known to be the beneficial owner of more than 5% of the outstanding Common Shares;

 

each of our current named executive officers and directors; and

 

all our current executive officers and directors 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 or exercisable within 60 days after that date through the exercise of any option or warrant. In computing the number of Common Shares beneficially owned by a person and the percentage ownership of that person, our Common Shares subject to options or warrants (as set forth above) held by that person that are currently exercisable, or will become exercisable within 60 days thereafter, are deemed outstanding for such person, while such shares are not deemed outstanding for purposes of computing percentage ownership of any other person. Each person named in the table has sole voting and investment power with respect to all of the shares shown as beneficially owned by such person, except as otherwise indicated in the table or footnotes below.

 

Unless otherwise indicated, we believe that all persons named in the table below have sole voting and investment power with respect to the voting securities beneficially owned by them. To our knowledge, none of the Common Shares beneficially owned by any executive officer or director have been pledged as security. Unless otherwise noted, the address of each beneficial owner is c/o Damon Inc., 4601 Canada Way, Suite #402, Burnaby, British Columbia, V5G 4X3.

The following summary of the rights of our securities is not complete and is subject to and qualified and should be read together with our articles, as amended and notice of articles, as amended (collectively, our “Articles”), copies of which have been filed previously with the SEC. For more information on how you can obtain copies of our Articles, see the section titled “Where You Can Find More Information.”

 

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

 

Common Shares

 

Our Articles authorizes (i) an unlimited number of common shares, without par value, which are also referred to herein as “Subordinate Voting Shares,” and (ii) an unlimited number of Multiple Voting Shares, without par value. On December 4, 2024, all 1,391,181 outstanding Multiple Voting Shares held by the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer and director, Jay Giraud, and his wholly-owned company, were automatically converted into 1,391,181 Common Shares pursuant to the terms of his Founder Agreement with the Company. After giving effect to the conversion and as of July 21, 2025, a total of 19,603,815 Common Shares are outstanding, and no Multiple Voting Shares remain outstanding.

 

Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares

 

Except as described below, the Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares will have the same rights, will be equal in all respects and will be treated by the combined company as if they were one class of shares. The Articles provide that following the listing of the Company’s common shares on Nasdaq or other similar recognized national securities exchange in Canada or the United States, the Company may not issue any new Multiple Voting Shares from its treasury.

 

Ranking

 

The Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares will rank pari passu with respect to the payment of dividends, return of capital and distribution of assets in the event of the Company’s liquidation, dissolution or winding up.

 

Dividend Rights

 

Holders of Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares will be entitled to receive dividends on a pari passu basis out of the combined company’s assets legally available for the payment of dividends at such times and in such amount and form as the Board of Directors may from time to time determine. In the event of the payment of a dividend in the form of shares, holders of Subordinate Voting Shares will receive Subordinate Voting Shares, and holders of Multiple Voting Shares will receive Multiple Voting Shares, unless otherwise determined by the Board of Directors.

 

Voting Rights

 

Holders of Subordinate Voting Shares will be entitled to one vote per Subordinate Voting Share, and holders of Multiple Voting Shares will be entitled to seven votes per Multiple Voting Share, on all matters upon which shareholders are entitled to vote.

 

Conversion

 

The Subordinate Voting Shares will not convertible into any other class of shares. In addition, the Multiple Voting Shares shall convert to Subordinate Voting Shares as follows:

 

each outstanding Multiple Voting Share may at any time, at the option of the holder, be converted into one Subordinate Voting Share;

 

- 136 -

 

 

on the first business day following the fifth annual meeting of shareholders of the combined company following the Subordinate Voting Shares being listed and posted for trading on a U.S. national securities exchange such as Nasdaq, the Multiple Voting Shares shall automatically convert to Subordinate Voting Shares; and

 

if Jay Giraud or his permitted transferees no longer beneficially owns, directly or indirectly and in the aggregate, at least 2% of the issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares on a non-diluted basis (on an as converted basis), the Multiple Voting Shares shall automatically convert to Subordinate Voting Shares.

 

In addition, pursuant to the Founder Agreement with Jay Giraud, Jay Giraud agreed to convert his Multiple Voting Shares into Subordinate Voting Share upon:

 

the shipment of 1,000 motorcycles to customers by the combined company; and

 

Jay Giraud ceasing to be an executive officer of the Company due to his voluntary resignation as both a director and an officer of the combined company, or his termination as an executive officer for cause (which termination has been confirmed by a court of competent jurisdiction, or in respect of which a claim is not brought within 90 days following such termination). Mr. Giraud resigned as an executive officer and director of the Company on December 4, 2024; accordingly, the Multiple Voting shares that were beneficially owned by him are deemed converted into an equivalent number of Common Shares as of such date.

 

Meetings of Shareholders

 

Holders of Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares will be entitled to receive notice of any meeting of shareholders and may attend and vote at such meetings, except those meetings where only the holders of shares of another class or of a particular series are entitled to vote. A quorum for the transaction of business at a meeting of shareholders is present if at least two shareholders who, together, hold not less than 33 and 1/3% of the votes attaching to the issued and outstanding shares entitled to vote at the meeting are present in person or represented by proxy.

 

Redemption Rights

 

The Company has no redemption or purchase for cancellation rights.

 

Liquidation Rights

 

Upon a liquidation, dissolution or winding-up, whether voluntary or involuntary, of the Company, the holders of Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares, without preference or distinction, will be entitled to receive ratably all of the Company’s assets remaining after payment of all debts and other liabilities.

 

Subdivision, Consolidation and Issuance of Rights

 

No subdivision or consolidation of the Subordinate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares may occur unless both classes of shares are concurrently subdivided or consolidated and in the same manner and proportion. No new rights to acquire additional shares or other securities or property of ours will be issued to holders of Subordinate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares unless the same rights are concurrently issued to the holders of both classes of shares.

 

Additionally, pursuant to the BCBCA and our Articles, the Board of Directors by resolution of the directors has the authority to consolidate or subdivide our issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares or Multiple Voting Shares without requiring shareholder approval.

 

- 137 -

 

 

Certain Amendments

 

In addition to any other voting right or power to which the holders of Subordinate Voting Shares shall be entitled by law or regulation or other provisions of the Articles from time to time in effect, but subject to the provisions of the Articles, holders of Subordinate Voting Shares shall be entitled to vote separately as a class, in addition to any other vote of shareholders that may be required, in respect of any alteration, repeal or amendment of the Articles which would adversely affect the rights or special rights of the holders of Subordinate Voting Shares or affect the holders of Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares differently, on a per share basis.

 

Pursuant to the Articles, holders of Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares will be treated equally and identically, except with respect to voting and conversion, on a per share basis, in certain change in control transactions that require approval of the shareholders under the BCBCA, unless different treatment of the shares of each such class is approved by a majority of the votes cast by the holders of the Subordinate Voting Shares and Multiple Voting Shares, each voting separately as a class.

 

Forum Selection

 

The Articles include a forum selection provision that provides that, unless the Company consents in writing to the selection of an alternative forum, the British Columbia Supreme Court and appellate Courts therefrom will be the sole and exclusive forum for (i) any derivative action or proceeding brought on the Company’s behalf; (ii) any action or proceeding asserting a breach of fiduciary duty owed by any of the Company’s directors, officers or other employees to the Company; (iii) any action or proceeding asserting a claim arising pursuant to any provision of BCBCA or the Articles; or (iv) any action or proceeding asserting a claim otherwise related to the “affairs” (as defined in the BCBCA) of the Company. The forum selection provision also provides that the Company’s securityholders are deemed to have consented to personal jurisdiction in the Province of British Columbia and to service of process on their counsel in any foreign action initiated in violation of the Articles. To the fullest extent permitted by law, the forum selection provision applies to claims arising under U.S. federal securities laws. In addition, investors cannot waive compliance with U.S. federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

 

Advance Notice Provisions

 

The Articles include certain advance notice provisions with respect to the election of directors (the “Advance Notice Provisions”). The Advance Notice Provisions are intended to: (i) facilitate orderly and efficient annual general meetings or, where the need arises, special meetings; (ii) ensure that all shareholders receive adequate notice of the board of directors nominations and sufficient information with respect to all nominees; and (iii) allow shareholders to register an informed vote. Only persons who are nominated by shareholders in accordance with the Advance Notice Provisions will be eligible for election as directors at any annual meeting of shareholders, or at any special meeting of shareholders if one of the purposes for which the special meeting was called was the election of directors.

 

Under the Advance Notice Provisions, a shareholder wishing to nominate a director would be required to provide the Company notice, in the prescribed form, within the prescribed time periods. These time periods include, (i) in the case of an annual meeting of shareholders (including annual and special meetings), not more than 40 days prior to the date of the annual meeting of shareholders; provided, that if the first public announcement of the date of the annual meeting of shareholders (the “Notice Date”) is less than 50 days before the meeting date, notice must be given not later than the close of business on the 10th day following the Notice Date; and (ii) in the case of a special meeting (which is not also an annual meeting) of shareholders called for the purpose of electing directors (whether or not called for other purposes), not later than the close of business on the 15th day following the Notice Date.

 

Transfer Agent and Registrar

 

The transfer agent and registrar for our Common Shares is Odyssey Transfer & Trust Company.

 

- 138 -

 

 

Trade Symbol and Market

 

Our Common Shares trade on the over-the-counter market and are quoted on the OTCID Basic Market under the symbol “DMNIF”, however, as a result of our recent reverse stock split effective on July 3, 2025, our current trading symbol is “DMNID” until August 1, 2025, when our symbol will revert to “DMNIF.”

 

SHARES ELIGIBLE FOR FUTURE SALE

 

Immediately following the sale of the maximum amount of Common Shares in this Offering, we will have 319,603,815 Common Shares issued and outstanding. The Common Shares will be freely tradable under federal securities laws unless issued to our “affiliates” as such term is defined in Rule 405 of the Securities Act. If you participate in this Offering and purchase more than 10% of our Common Shares, you may be deemed an affiliate under the Securities Act and may be unable to freely transfer your Common Shares. We or our transfer agent will require you to provide a legal opinion and other information necessary to determine your affiliate status.

 

In addition, since we are a British Columbia corporation, we are subject to the jurisdiction of the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”), and the first trade of the Common Shares by an investor in or from a jurisdiction of Canada is prohibited unless such Common Shares are qualified by a prospectus filed and duly receipted by the BCSC and any other Canadian securities administrator having jurisdiction with respect thereto. Accordingly, a non-Canadian investor will be required to provide an undertaking in the subscription agreement that the investor undertakes not to sell any Common Shares to a person in Canada, from a jurisdiction in Canada or through a market in Canada unless the resale transaction has been so qualified.

 

The Common Shares issued in this Offering to Canadian investors will be subject to the resale requirements under section 13 of Multilateral Instrument 51-105 – Issuers Quoted in the U.S. Over-the-Counter Markets (“MI 51-105”), and will bear a legend restriction notation, stating the following: “The holder of this security must not trade the security in or from a jurisdiction of Canada unless the conditions in section 13 of Multilateral Instrument 51-105 Issuer Quoted in the U.S. Over-the-Counter Markets are met.” Please see below for the resale requirements under section titled “MI 51-105.” Canadian purchasers under this Offering should consult with their own professional advisers with respect to restrictions on the transferability of the Common Shares offered hereunder.

 

Previously issued Common Shares that were not offered and sold in this Offering, as well as Common Shares subject to employee stock options, which have not been registered under the Securities Act, are or will be upon issuance, “restricted securities”, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. These restricted securities are eligible for public sale only if such public resale is registered under the Securities Act or if the resale qualifies for an exemption from registration under Rule 144 or Rule 701 under the Securities Act, which are summarized below.

 

Rule 144

 

In general, a person who has beneficially owned restricted shares for at least twelve months, or at least six months in the event we have been a reporting company under the Exchange Act for at least 90 days before the sale, would be entitled to sell such shares, provided that such person is not deemed to be an affiliate of ours at the time of sale or to have been an affiliate of ours at any time during the 90 days preceding the sale. A person who is an affiliate of ours at such time would be subject to additional restrictions, by which such person would be entitled to sell within any three-month period only a number of shares that does not exceed the greater of the following:

 

1% of the number of Common Shares then outstanding; or

 

1% of the average weekly trading volume of our Common Shares during the four calendar weeks preceding the filing by such person of a notice on Form 144 with respect to the sale;

 

provided that, in each case, we are subject to the periodic reporting requirements of the Exchange Act for at least 90 days before the sale. Rule 144 trades must also comply with the manner of sale, notice and other provisions of Rule 144, to the extent applicable.

 

- 139 -

 

 

Rule 701

 

In general, Rule 701 allows a stockholder who purchased Common Shares of our capital stock pursuant to a written compensatory plan or contract and who is not deemed to have been an affiliate of ours during the immediately preceding 90 days to sell those Common Shares in reliance upon Rule 144, but without being required to comply with the public information, holding period, volume limitation or notice provisions of Rule 144. All holders of Rule 701 Common Shares, however, are required to wait until 90 days after the date of this Offering Circular before selling Common Shares pursuant to Rule 701.

 

MI 51-105

 

We became an “OTC reporting issuer” under MI 51-105 by having issued a class of securities that has been assigned a symbol by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (“FINRA”) for use on the OTCID market operated by the OTC Markets Group, Inc. and such securities are not listed or quoted on one or more of: (i) TSX Venture Exchange Inc.; (ii) TSX Inc.; (iii) Canadian Securities Exchange; (iv) Alpha Exchange Inc.; (v) The New York Stock Exchange LLC; (vi) NYSE American LLC; (vii) The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC; or (viii) Cboe Canada (formerly Aequitas NEO Exchange Inc.). Pursuant to section 13(1) of MI 51-105, a person must not trade a security of an OTC reporting issuer that the person acquired under an exemption from the prospectus requirement after the date FINRA issued the ticker-symbol unless the following conditions are satisfied:

 

(a)unless the security was acquired under a director or employee stock option, a 4-month period has passed from one of the following:

 

(i)the date the OTC reporting issuer distributed the security;

 

(ii)the date a control person distributed the security;

 

(b)if the person trading the security is a control person of the OTC reporting issuer, the person has held the security for at least 6 months;

 

(c)the number of securities the person proposes to trade, plus the number of securities of the OTC reporting issuer of the same class that the person has traded in the preceding 12-month period, does not exceed 5% of the OTC reporting issuer’s outstanding securities of the same class;

 

(d)the person trades the security through an investment dealer registered in a jurisdiction of Canada;

 

(e)the investment dealer executes the trade through any of the over-the-counter markets in the United States of America;

 

(f)there has been no unusual effort made to prepare the market or create a demand for the security;

 

(g)no extraordinary commission or other consideration is paid to a person for the trade;

 

(h)if the person trading the security is an insider of the OTC reporting issuer, the person reasonably believes that the OTC reporting issuer is not in default of securities legislation; and

 

(i)the certificate representing the security bears a legend, or the ownership statement issued under a direct registration system or other electronic book entry system relating to the security bears a legend restriction notation, stating the following:

 

The holder of this security must not trade the security in or from a jurisdiction of Canada unless the conditions in section 13 of Multilateral Instrument 51-105 Issuer Quoted in the U.S. Over-the-Counter Markets are met.”

 

- 140 -

 

 

Section 13(2) of MI 51-105 provides that despite subsection (1), a person may trade a security of an OTC reporting issuer that the person acquired under an exemption from the prospectus requirement if the trade is in connection with one or more of the following:

 

(a)a take-over bid or an issuer bid in a jurisdiction of Canada;

 

(b)an amalgamation, merger, reorganization or arrangement that is under a statutory procedure or court order;

 

(c)a dissolution or winding-up of the issuer that is under a statutory procedure or court order.

 

CERTAIN CANADIAN FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS
FOR NON-RESIDENTS OF CANADA

 

The following is, as of the date hereof, a summary of the principal Canadian federal income tax considerations generally applicable under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and the regulations promulgated thereunder (the “Tax Act”) to a holder who acquires, as beneficial owner, Common Shares pursuant to this Offering, and who, for purposes of the Tax Act and at all relevant times: (i) holds their Common Shares as capital property; (ii) deals at arm’s length with, and is not affiliated with, us; (iii) is not, and is not deemed to be, resident in Canada; and (iv) does not use or hold and will not be deemed to use or hold, their Common Shares in the course of carrying on, or otherwise in connection with, a business carried on in Canada (a “Non-Resident Holder”). Generally, Common Shares will be considered to be capital property to a Non-Resident Holder provided the Non-Resident Holder does not hold the Common Shares in the course of carrying on a business of trading or dealing in securities and has not acquired them in one or more transactions considered to be an adventure or concern in the nature of trade. Special rules, which are not discussed in this summary, may apply to a Non-Resident Holder that is an insurer that carries on an insurance business in Canada and elsewhere or is an authorized foreign bank (as defined in the Tax Act). All such Non-Resident Holders should seek advice from their own tax advisors.

 

This summary is based upon the provisions of the Tax Act in force as of the date hereof, all specific proposals to amend the Tax Act that have been publicly announced by or on behalf of the Minister of Finance (Canada) prior to the date hereof (the “Proposed Amendments”) and management’s understanding of the current administrative policies and assessing practices of the Canada Revenue Agency (the “CRA”) published in writing by it prior to the date hereof. This summary assumes the Proposed Amendments will be enacted in the form proposed. However, no assurance can be given that the Proposed Amendments will be enacted in their current form, or at all. This summary is not exhaustive of all possible Canadian federal income tax considerations and, except for the Proposed Amendments, does not take into account or anticipate any changes in the law or any changes in the CRA’s administrative policies or practices, whether by legislative, governmental, or judicial action or decision, nor does it take into account or anticipate any other federal or any provincial, territorial or foreign tax considerations, which may differ significantly from those discussed herein.

 

Non-Resident Holders should consult their own tax advisors with respect to an investment in Common Shares. This summary is of a general nature only and is not intended to be, nor should it be construed to be, legal or tax advice to any prospective purchaser or holder of Common Shares, and no representations with respect to the income tax consequences to any prospective purchaser or holder are made. Consequently, prospective purchasers or holders of Common Shares should consult their own tax advisors with respect to their particular circumstances.

 

Currency Conversion

 

Generally, for purposes of the Tax Act, all amounts relating to the acquisition, holding, or disposition of Common Shares, including dividends, adjusted cost base, and proceeds of disposition, which are denominated in a currency other than the Canadian dollar, must be converted into Canadian dollars using the applicable rate of exchange quoted by the Bank of Canada on the date such amounts arose, or such other rate of exchange as is acceptable to the Minister of National Revenue (Canada).

 

- 141 -

 

 

Disposition of Common Shares

 

A Non-Resident Holder will generally not be subject to income tax under the Tax Act on a disposition or deemed disposition of a Common Share, unless the Common Share constitutes “taxable Canadian property” (as defined in the Tax Act) of the Non-Resident Holder at the time of disposition and the Non-Resident Holder is not entitled to relief under an applicable income tax treaty or convention.

 

Provided that our Common Shares are listed on a “designated stock exchange,” as defined in the Tax Act, at the time of disposition, a Common Share will generally not constitute taxable Canadian property of a Non-Resident Holder at that time unless at any time during the 60-month period immediately preceding the disposition the following two conditions are satisfied concurrently: (i) (a) the Non-Resident Holder; (b) persons with whom the Non-Resident Holder did not deal at arm’s length; (c) partnerships in which the Non-Resident Holder or a person described in (b) holds a membership interest directly or indirectly through one or more partnerships; or (d) any combination of the persons and partnerships described in (a) through (c), owned 25% or more of the issued shares of any class or series of our shares; and (ii) more than 50% of the fair market value of such shares was derived directly or indirectly from one or any combination of: real or immovable property situated in Canada, “Canadian resource properties”, “timber resource properties” (each as defined in the Tax Act), and options in respect of, or interests in, or for civil law rights in, any such property (whether or not such property exists). Notwithstanding the foregoing, in certain circumstances set out in the Tax Act, a Common Share could be deemed to be taxable Canadian property. Even if a Common Share is taxable Canadian property of a Non-Resident Holder, such Non-Resident Holder may be exempt from tax under the Tax Act on the disposition of the Common Share by virtue of an applicable income tax treaty or convention. A Non-Resident Holder who disposes of taxable Canadian property may be required to file a Canadian income tax return for the year in which the disposition occurs, regardless of whether the Non-Resident Holder is liable for tax under the Tax Act in respect of such disposition.

 

A Non-Resident Holder contemplating a disposition of a Common Share that may constitute taxable Canadian property should consult a tax advisor prior to such disposition.

 

Dividends on Common Shares

 

Dividends paid or credited, or deemed to be paid or credited, on a Non-Resident Holder’s Common Shares will be subject to Canadian withholding tax under the Tax Act. The general rate of withholding tax applicable to dividends under the Tax Act is 25% of the gross amount of the dividend, although such rate may be reduced under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or convention between Canada and the Non-Resident Holder’s country of residence. For example, under the Canada-United States Income Tax Convention, 1980, as amended, the rate is generally reduced to 15% where the Non-Resident Holder beneficially owns such dividends and is a resident of the United States for the purposes of, and is fully entitled to the benefits of, that treaty. Non-Resident Holders should seek advice from their own tax advisors in this regard.

 

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME TAX CONSIDERATIONS FOR -U.S. HOLDERS

 

The following discussion provides a general summary based on present law of the material U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to U.S. holders (defined below) who hold and dispose of our common shares acquired following registration pursuant to this Offering Circular. This discussion is based upon the Code, existing final, temporary and proposed Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder (“Treasury Regulations”), applicable U.S. judicial decisions and published rulings and administrative pronouncements of the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), all as currently in effect as of the date of this Offering Circular, and all of which are subject to change in a material and adverse manner or differing interpretations, possibly with retroactive effect, and any such change or differing interpretation could affect the accuracy of the statements and conclusions set forth herein. This discussion does not discuss the potential effects, whether adverse or beneficial, of any proposed legislation that, if enacted, could be applied on a retroactive, current or prospective basis.

 

- 142 -

 

 

This discussion is for general information purposes only and does not purport to be a complete description discussion of all tax considerations that may be relevant to U.S. holders. This discussion applies only to U.S. holders that will hold the common shares as capital assets within the meaning of Section 1221(a) of the Code (generally, property held for investment) and that use the U.S. dollar as their functional currency. This discussion does not describe all of the U.S. federal income tax considerations that may be relevant to shareholders in light of their particular circumstances, including, without limitation, specific tax consequences to a U.S. holder under an applicable income tax treaty, nor does it apply to holders subject to special rules under the U.S. federal income tax laws, such as, for example, banks or other financial institutions, underwriters, insurance companies, mutual funds, tax-exempt entities and organizations, governmental organizations, brokers, dealers or traders in securities (including traders in securities that elect to apply a mark-to-market accounting method), currencies or commodities, regulated investment companies, real estate investment trusts, partnerships and other pass-through entities (including S-corporations) and partners, owners or investors (or shareholders) therein, U.S. expatriates or former citizens or long-term residents of the United States, pension funds, individual retirement and other tax-deferred accounts, “controlled foreign corporations,” “passive foreign investment companies,” and “personal holding companies” (each as defined in the Code), entities subject to the U.S. anti-inversion rules or the base erosion and anti-abuse tax, persons liable for the alternative minimum tax, persons required to accelerate the recognition of any item of gross income as a result of such income being recognized on an “applicable financial statement,” persons that directly, indirectly or constructively, own or have owned or will own at any time during the five-year period ending on the closing date, 10% or more of the total combined voting power or value of Company shares, persons who hold or received their common shares through the exercise of employee stock options or otherwise as compensation or through a tax-qualified retirement plan, U.S. holders who will hold the common shares in connection with a trade or business, permanent establishment or fixed base outside the U.S., persons that have been, are, or will be a resident or deemed to be a resident of Canada for purposes of the Tax Act, persons that use or hold, will use or hold, or that are or will be deemed to use or hold common shares in connection with carrying on a business in Canada, persons whose common shares constitute “taxable Canadian property” under the Tax Act or U.S. holders that hold the common shares as part of a hedge, straddle, conversion, constructive sale or other integrated or risk reduction financial transaction. This summary also does not address any considerations relating to U.S. federal taxes other than the income tax (such as estate or gift taxes), any U.S. state and local, or non-U.S. tax laws or considerations, the Medicare tax on net investment income, any considerations with respect to any withholding required under the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act of 2010 (including the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder and any intergovernmental agreements entered in connection therewith and any laws, regulations or practices adopted in connection with any such agreement), or, except as expressly addressed below, any U.S. tax reporting requirements. Holders that are subject to special provisions under the Code, including, but not limited to, holders described immediately above, should consult their own tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal, U.S. state and local, and non-U.S. tax consequences relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of Company common shares.

 

As used in this Offering Circular the term “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our common shares acquired following registration pursuant to this Offering Circular that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes: (i) a citizen or individual resident of the U.S., (ii) a corporation, or other entity or arrangement taxable as a corporation, created or organized in or under the laws of the U.S., any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (iii) a trust if a court within the U.S. is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or the trust has a valid election in effect under applicable Treasury Regulations to be treated as a U.S. person; or (iv) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source.

 

If a partnership or other entity or arrangement classified as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes holds our common shares, the U.S. federal income tax treatment of such entity or a partner (or other owner) of such entity holding or disposing of our common shares generally will depend on the status of the partner (or other owner), the activities of the partnership and certain determinations made at the partner level. This summary does not address the tax consequences to any such entity or arrangement or partner (or owner). Partnerships and persons treated as partners in partnerships should consult their own tax advisors regarding the specific U.S. federal income tax consequences to them of owning and disposing of our common shares in light of their particular circumstances.

 

- 143 -

 

 

The following discussion is not intended to be, and should not be construed as, legal or tax advice with respect to any U.S. holder of U.S. federal income tax considerations relating to the ownership and disposition of our common shares acquired following registration pursuant to this Offering Circular. No ruling from the IRS has been requested, or will be obtained, regarding the U.S. federal income tax considerations applicable to U.S. holders as discussed in this summary. This summary is not binding on the IRS, and the IRS is not precluded from taking a position that is different from, and contrary to, the positions taken in this summary. In addition, because the authorities on which this summary is based are subject to various interpretations, the IRS and the U.S. courts could disagree with one or more of the positions taken in this summary. All holders should consult their own tax advisors as to the specific tax consequences to them of the ownership and disposition of our common shares including with respect to reporting requirements and the applicability and effect of any U.S. federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other tax laws in light of their particular circumstances.

 

Dividends Distributions on Company Common Shares

 

Subject to the discussion below of special rules applicable to passive foreign investment companies (“PFICs”), the gross amount of any distribution, including a constructive distribution, with respect to Company common shares will be included in a U.S. holder’s gross income as a dividend (without reduction for any Canadian income tax withheld from such distribution) to the extent of the Company’s current and accumulated earnings and profits as determined under U.S. federal income tax laws. To the extent that a distribution exceeds the Company’s current and accumulated “earnings and profits”, such distribution will be treated first as a tax-free return of capital to the extent of a U.S. holder’s tax basis in the common shares and thereafter as gain from the sale or exchange of such common shares. However, the Company does not expect to maintain calculations of earnings and profits for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Therefore, a U.S. holder should expect that any such distribution by us with respect to Company common shares generally will be treated as a dividend from foreign sources when actually or constructively received and thus will constitute ordinary dividend income. Dividends will not be eligible for the dividends-received deduction generally available to U.S. corporations. Dividends received from a “qualified foreign corporation” by eligible non-corporate U.S. holders that satisfy a minimum holding period and certain other requirements generally will be taxed at the preferential rate applicable to qualified dividend income. The Company will be treated as a qualified foreign corporation if its shares are readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States or the Company qualifies for comprehensive benefits under the Convention between the United States of America and Canada with respect to Taxes on Income and on Capital (the “U-S.-Canada Tax Convention”) U.S.-Canada income tax treaty and the Company is not a PFIC for either the taxable year of distribution or prior taxable year. U.S. Treasury guidance indicates that shares listed on the Nasdaq will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market in the United States. There can be no assurance, however, that the Company common shares will be considered readily tradable on an established securities market now or in future years or that the Company will qualify for comprehensive benefits under the U.S.-Canada Tax Convention. The dividend rules are complex, and each U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisor regarding the application of such rules in light of its own circumstances.

 

The amount of any distribution Dividends paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be included in income in a U.S. dollar amount based on the exchange rate in effect on the date the dividend is distributed, whether or not the currency is converted into U.S. dollars at that time. A U.S. holder’s tax basis in the non-U.S. currency will equal the U.S. dollar amount included in income. Any gain or loss realized on a subsequent conversion or other disposition of the non-U.S. currency for a different U.S. dollar amount generally will be U.S. source ordinary income or loss, including for foreign tax credit purposes. If dividends distributions paid in a currency other than U.S. dollars are converted into U.S. dollars on the day they are distributed, a U.S. holder generally will not be required to recognize foreign currency gain or loss in respect of the dividend income. Different rules apply to U.S. holders who use the accrual method of tax accounting. Each U.S. holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the U.S. federal income tax consequences of receiving, owning, and disposing of foreign non-U.S. currency in light of its own circumstances.

 

A U.S. holder must include any tax withheld from a dividend payment in this gross amount even though they do not in fact receive such withheld tax. Subject to certain limitations, Canadian income tax withheld and paid (whether directly by a U.S. holder or through withholding) over to Canada will be creditable or deductible against the U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability at the election of such U.S. holder. Generally, an election to deduct foreign taxes instead of claiming foreign tax credits applies to all foreign taxes paid or accrued in the taxable year, and a credit will reduce a U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability on a dollar-for-dollar basis, whereas a deduction will reduce a U.S. holder’s income that is subject to U.S. federal income tax. This election is made on a year-by-year basis and applies to all foreign taxes paid (whether directly or through withholding) by a U.S. holder during a year. Special rules apply in determining the foreign tax credit limitation with respect to dividends that are subject to preferential tax rates for qualified dividend income. To the extent a refund of the tax withheld is available to a U.S. holder under Canadian law or under the U-S.-Canada Tax Convention, the amount of tax withheld that is refundable will not be eligible for credit against such U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, regardless of whether such benefits are claimed by the U.S. holder. The rules governing foreign tax credits are complex and involve the application of rules that depend on a U.S. holder’s particular circumstances. Accordingly, U.S. holders are urged to consult their own tax advisers advisors regarding the creditability of foreign taxes in light of their own particular circumstances.

Sales or Other Dispositions of Company Common Shares

 

Subject to the discussion below of special rules applicable to PFICs, a U.S. holder generally will recognize capital gain or loss on the sale or other disposition of Company common shares in an amount equal to the difference between the U.S. dollar value of the amount realized (cash received plus the fair market value of any property received) and the U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in the Company common shares sold or otherwise disposed. Any gain or loss generally will be treated as arising from U.S. sources and will be long-term capital gain or loss if the U.S. holder’s holding period for such shares sold or disposed exceeds one year. Preferential tax rates may apply to long-term capital gains of non-corporate U.S. holders (including individuals). There are currently no preferential tax rates for long-term capital gain of a U.S. holder that is a corporation. Deductions for capital loss are subject to significant limitations under the Code. Each U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a sale or other disposition of Company common shares in light of its own circumstances.

 

If Company common shares are sold, exchanged or otherwise disposed of in a taxable transaction for Canadian dollars, the amount realized generally will be the U.S. dollar value of the Canadian dollars received based on the spot rate in effect on the date of sale, exchange, or other taxable disposition. If a U.S. holder is a cash method taxpayer and the Company common shares are traded on an established securities market, Canadian dollars received will be translated into U.S. dollars at the spot rate on the settlement date of the taxable disposition. An accrual method taxpayer may elect the same treatment with respect to the taxable disposition of common shares traded on an established securities market, provided that the election is applied consistently from year to year. Such election cannot be changed without the consent of the IRS. Canadian dollars received on the taxable disposition of a Company common share generally will have a tax basis equal to its U.S. dollar value as determined pursuant to the rules above. Any gain or loss recognized by a U.S. holder on a sale, exchange or other taxable disposition of the Canadian dollars will be ordinary income or loss and generally will be U.S.-source gain or loss. Each U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisors regarding the tax consequences of a sale or other taxable disposition of Company common shares for Canadian dollars in light of its own circumstances.

 

Passive Foreign Investment Company Considerations

 

The Company generally will be a PFIC for any taxable year if, after the application of certain “look-through” rules with respect to subsidiaries in which the Company holds at least 25% of the value of such subsidiary, (a) 75% or more of the gross income of the Company for such tax year is passive income (the “income test”) or (b) 50% or more of the average value of the Company’s assets (generally calculated as a quarterly average) is attributable to assets that either produce passive income or are held for the production of passive income (the “asset test”). “Gross income” generally includes all sales revenues less the cost of goods sold, plus income from investments and incidental or outside operations or sources, and “passive income” generally includes, for example, dividends, interest, certain non-active rents and royalties, certain gains from the sale of stock and securities, and certain gains from commodities transactions.

 

The determination of whether the Company is a PFIC for the current taxable year ending June 30, 2025 cannot be made at this time, and no assurance can be given as to whether the Company will be treated as a PFIC for its current taxable year. In addition, no assurance can be given as to whether the Company will be a PFIC in future taxable years, and the Company has not made a determination in this regard in respect of its prior taxable year. No opinion of legal counsel or ruling from the IRS concerning the status of the Company as a PFIC has been obtained or is currently planned to be requested. The determination of PFIC status is inherently factual, is subject to a number of uncertainties, and can be determined only annually after the close of the taxable year in question. Further, a company’s PFIC status can change depending, among other things, on changes in the composition and relative value of its gross receipts and assets, changes in its operations and changes in the market value of its stock. Additionally, the analysis depends, in part, on the application of complex U.S. federal income tax rules, which are subject to differing interpretations. Accordingly, it is possible that the Company is or has been a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes, and there can be no assurance that the Company will not be a PFIC for its current or any future taxable year. U.S. holders should consult their own U.S. tax advisors regarding the Company’s PFIC status.

If the Company were a PFIC for any taxable year during which a U.S. holder owned Company common shares, unless the U.S. holder makes a “mark-to-market” election “ or a “QEF” election (each as described below) for the first taxable year of the Company in which it was treated as a PFIC, and in which the U.S. holder held (or was deemed to hold) such common shares, such holder generally would be subject to special rules with respect to “excess distributions” made by the Company on the its common shares and with respect to gain from the disposition of such common shares, regardless of whether the Company continues to be a PFIC in subsequent tax years (unless the Company ceases to be a PFIC and the U.S. holder makes a special “purging” election, described below). An “excess distribution” generally is defined as the excess of distributions with respect to Company the common shares received by a U.S. holder in any tax year over 125% of the average annual distributions such U.S. holder has received from the Company during the shorter of the three preceding tax years, or such U.S. holder’s holding period for such common shares. Generally, a U.S. holder would be required to allocate any excess distribution or gain from the disposition of the Company common shares ratably to each day in its holding period for such common shares. Such amounts allocated to the year of the disposition or excess distribution or any year prior to the first year in which the Company was a PFIC would be taxed as ordinary income in the current year, and amounts allocated to other tax years would be taxed as ordinary income at the highest marginal U.S. federal income tax rate in effect for each such year and an interest charge at a rate applicable to underpayments of tax would apply.

 

The tax liability for amounts allocated to taxable years prior to the year of disposition or excess distribution cannot be offset by any net operating losses, and gains (but not losses) realized on the sale of our common shares cannot be treated as capital gains, even if a U.S. holder holds our common shares as capital assets.

 

If the Company is treated as a PFIC for any year during which a U.S. holder holds or is deemed to hold our common shares, the Company generally would continue to be treated as a PFIC with respect to that U.S. holder for all succeeding years during which the U.S. holder holds or is deemed to hold such common shares, even if the Company ceased to meet the threshold requirements for PFIC status, unless under certain circumstances the U.S. holder makes a valid deemed sale or deemed dividend election (a “purging” election) under the applicable Treasury Regulations with respect to its common shares.

 

If the Company is treated as a PFIC with respect to a U.S. holder for any taxable year, to the extent any of its subsidiaries are also PFICs, such U.S. holder may be deemed to own a proportionate interest in such lower-tier PFICs that are directly or indirectly owned by the Company, and such U.S. holder may be subject to the adverse tax consequences described above with respect to the shares of such lower-tier PFICs such U.S. holder would be deemed to own. As a result, a U.S. holder may incur liability for any excess distribution described above if the Company receives a distribution from a lower-tier PFICs or if any shares in such lower-tier PFICs are disposed of (or deemed disposed of). Each U.S. holder should consult its own U.S. tax advisor regarding the application of the PFIC rules to any of our subsidiaries.

 

A U.S. holder of “marketable stock” (as defined below) in a PFIC may make a mark-to-market election for such stock to elect out of the tax treatment discussed above. If a U.S. holder makes a valid mark-to-market election for our common shares, such U.S. holder will include in income for each year that the Company is treated as a PFIC with respect to such U.S. holder an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the fair market value of our common shares as of the close of such U.S. holder’s taxable year over its adjusted basis in such common shares. Such U.S. holder will be allowed a deduction for the excess, if any, of the adjusted basis of our common shares over their fair market value as of the close of the taxable year. However, deductions will be allowable only to the extent of any net mark-to-market gains on our common shares included in such U.S. holder’s income for prior taxable years. Amounts included in such U.S. holder income under a mark-to-market election, as well as gain on the actual sale or other disposition of our common shares, will be treated as ordinary income. Ordinary loss treatment will also apply to the deductible portion of any mark-to-market loss on our common shares, as well as to any loss realized on the actual sale or disposition of our common shares, to the extent the amount of such loss does not exceed the net mark-to-market gains for such common shares previously included in income. Such U.S. holder’s basis in our common shares will be adjusted to reflect any such income or loss amounts.

 

- 146 -

 

 

The mark-to-market election is available only for “marketable stock”, which is stock that is regularly traded on a qualified exchange or other market, as defined in applicable Treasury Regulations. The Nasdaq is a qualified exchange, The OTCID Basic Market is not a qualified exchange under current U.S. Treasury guidance. Additionally, there can be no assurance that the trading in our common shares will be sufficiently regular to qualify our common shares as marketable stock. Because a mark-to-market election cannot be made for equity interests in any lower-tier PFICs we own, a U.S. holder generally will continue to be subject to the PFIC rules with respect to its indirect interest in any investments held by us that are treated as an equity interest in a PFIC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. Each U.S. holder should consult its own tax advisor as to the availability and desirability of a mark-to-market election, as well as the impact of such election on interests in any lower-tier PFICs.

 

Alternatively, if a non-U.S. entity treated as a corporation is a PFIC, a holder of shares in that entity may avoid taxation under the PFIC rules described above regarding excess distributions and recognized gains by making a “qualified electing fund” or QEF election to include in income its share of the entity’s income on a current basis. However, a U.S. holder may make a QEF election with respect to common shares only if we furnish such U.S. holder annually with certain tax information, and we currently do not intend to prepare or provide such information.

 

In any year in which the Company is classified as a PFIC, a U.S. holder will be required to file an annual report with the IRS containing such information as Treasury Regulations and/or other IRS guidance may require, which filing obligation would generally commence in the first tax year in which the Company is classified as a PFIC and in which such U.S. holder holds common shares. In addition to penalties, a failure to satisfy such reporting requirements may result in an extension of the time period during which the IRS can assess a tax. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the requirements of filing such information returns under these rules, including the requirement to file an IRS Form 8621 annually.

 

Each U.S. holder is urged to consult its own tax advisor regarding the application of the PFIC rules to an investment in Company common shares.

 

Backup Withholding and Information Reporting

 

In general, payments made within the U.S., or by a U.S. payor or U.S. middleman, of dividends on, and proceeds arising from the sale or other taxable disposition of the Company common shares generally may be subject to information reporting requirements, unless an exemption applies. Backup withholding may apply to amounts subject to information reporting if, in general, the applicable U.S. holder fails to provide an accurate taxpayer identification number (generally on Form W-9), or is described in certain other categories of persons, including any person notified by the IRS that such U.S. holder has previously failed who fails to properly report items subject to backup withholding tax or otherwise fails to establish an exemption from backup withholding. However, certain exempt persons, such as U.S. holders that are corporations, generally are excluded from these information reporting and backup withholding tax rules. Backup withholding is not an additional tax. U.S. holders can claim a credit against their U.S. federal income tax liability for the amount of any backup withholding and a refund of any excess, provided that all required information is timely provided to the IRS. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors as to their qualification for exemption from backup withholding and the procedure for establishing an exemption in light of their particular circumstances.

 

Certain U.S. holders holding specified foreign financial assets with an aggregate value in excess of the applicable dollar thresholds are required to report information to the IRS relating to Company common shares, subject to certain exceptions (including an exception for shares held in accounts maintained by U.S. financial institutions), on IRS Form 8938 for each year in which they hold Company common shares. Substantial penalties apply to any failure to timely file IRS Form 8938 with such holder’s U.S. federal income tax return unless the failure is shown to be due to reasonable cause and not willful neglect. Also, in the event a U.S. holder does not file IRS Form 8938 or fails to report a specified foreign financial asset that is required to be reported, the statute of limitations on the assessment and collection of U.S. federal income taxes of such U.S. holder for the related taxable year may not close before the date which is three years after the date on which the required information is filed. U.S. holders should consult their own tax advisors regarding the effect, if any, of these rules on the ownership and disposition of Company common shares.

THE DISCUSSION ABOVE IS NOT INTENDED TO CONSTITUTE A COMPLETE ANALYSIS OF ALL TAX CONSIDERATIONS APPLICABLE TO U.S. HOLDERS AND DOES NOT COVER SPECIFIC TAX MATTERS THAT MAY BE OF IMPORTANCE OR APPLICABLE TO A PARTICULAR U.S. HOLDER. THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE ACQUISITION, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF COMPANY COMMON SHARES WILL DEPEND ON A U.S. HOLDER’S SPECIFIC SITUATION AND CIRCUMSTANCES. EACH U.S. HOLDER IS URGED TO CONSULT ITS OWN TAX ADVISOR ABOUT THE TAX CONSEQUENCES TO IT OF ACQUIRING, HOLDING AND DISPOSING OF COMPANY COMMON SHARES IN LIGHT OF THE U.S. HOLDER’S OWN CIRCUMSTANCES, AS WELL AS THE APPLICABILITY AND EFFECT OF ANY U.S. FEDERAL, STATE, LOCAL, FOREIGN NON-U.S. OR OTHER TAX LAWS.

 

Plan of Distribution

SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT

 

THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT (this “Agreement” or this “Subscription”) is made and entered into as of __________ __, 2025, by and between the undersigned (the “Subscriber”) and Damon Inc., a corporation formed under the laws of the Province of British Columbia, Canada (the “Company”), with reference to the facts set forth below.

 

WHEREAS, subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Subscriber wishes to irrevocably subscribe for and purchase (subject to acceptance of such subscription by the Company) common shares without par value in the capital of the Company (each, a “Common Share” and collectively, the “Common Shares”) as more particularly set forth in Section 1 and on the signature page hereto, offered pursuant to that certain Offering Circular, incorporated into the Company’s Form 1-A, filed and qualified with the SEC effective on __________ __, 2025 (the “Offering Circular”) of the Company.

 

NOW, THEREFORE, in order to implement the foregoing, and in consideration of the mutual representations, warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the parties hereto agree as follows:

 

1. Subscription for Common Shares.

 

1.1Subject to the express terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Subscriber hereby irrevocably subscribes for and agrees to purchase the number of Common Shares, at a price of US$0.10 per Common Share (the “Purchase”), plus an investor processing fee equal to two percent (2%), for the aggregate purchase price (the “Purchase Price”) set forth on the signature page to this Agreement.

 

1.2The offering of Common Shares is described in the Offering Circular, which is available at https://www.invest.damon.com/ (the “Site”), as well as on the EDGAR website of the SEC. Please read this Agreement and the Offering Circular. While they are subject to change, as described below, the Company advises the Subscriber to print and retain a copy of these documents for the Subscriber’s records. By signing below, the Subscriber agrees to the following terms and consents to receive communications relating to the Common Shares electronically from the Company.

 

 

 

 

1.3The Company has the right to reject this Subscription in whole or in part for any reason. The Subscriber may not cancel, terminate or revoke this Agreement, which, in the case of an individual, shall survive the Subscriber’s death or disability and shall be binding upon the Subscriber and the Subscriber’s heirs, trustees, beneficiaries, executors, personal or legal administrators or representatives, successors, transferees and assigns.

 

1.4Once the Subscriber makes a funding commitment to purchase Common Shares, such commitment shall be irrevocable until the Common Shares are issued, the Purchase is rejected by the Company, or the Company otherwise determines not to consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.

 

1.5Upon acceptance of this Subscription by the Company, the Subscriber will become a shareholder of the Company as a holder of Common Shares.

 

2. Purchase of Common Shares.

 

2.1The Subscriber understands that the Purchase Price is payable with the execution and submission of this Agreement, and accordingly, will submit payment in the amount of the Purchase Price to the Company’s non-interest bearing escrow account with Enterprise Bank & Trust, acting as escrow agent for the Company, by certified check, draft, wire or ACH of immediately available funds drawn on a United States bank in accordance with the banking instructions to be provided to the Subscriber upon execution and delivery of this Agreement to the Company pursuant to the online platform as more fully described in the Offering Circular.

 

2.2If the Company returns the Subscriber’s Purchase Price to the Subscriber, the Company will not owe or pay any interest to the Subscriber.

 

2.3If this Subscription is accepted by the Company, the Subscriber agrees to comply fully with the terms of this Agreement, the Common Shares, and all other applicable documents or instruments of the Company. The Subscriber further agrees to execute any other necessary documents or instruments in connection with this Subscription and the Subscriber’s purchase of the Common Shares.

 

2.4In the event that this Subscription is rejected in full or the offering is terminated, payment made by the Subscriber for the Common Shares will be refunded to the Subscriber without interest and without deduction, and all of the obligations of the Subscriber hereunder shall terminate.

3.6The Subscriber, if an entity, is, and shall at all times while it holds Common Shares remain, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the state or other jurisdiction of the United States (or non-U.S. country) of its incorporation or organization, having full power and authority to own its properties and to carry on its business as conducted.

The Subscriber agrees that, if at any time it is discovered that the Company has been or may be found to have violated the PCMLTF Act, the PATRIOT Act or any other anti-money laundering laws or regulations as a result of the Purchase or receipt of the Purchase Price, or if otherwise required by applicable laws or regulations, the Company may undertake appropriate actions, and the Subscriber agrees to cooperate with such actions, to ensure compliance with such laws or regulations, including, but not limited to, segregation and/or redemption of the Subscriber’s interest in the Common Shares. The Subscriber agrees to provide any and all documentation requested by the Company to ensure compliance with the PCMLTF Act, the PATRIOT Act or other laws or regulations.

The Subscriber further acknowledges that future offerings of securities of the Company may be made at lower valuations, with the result that the Subscriber’s investment will bear a lower valuation.

 

3.22As used in this Agreement, “United States” or “U.S.” means, as the context requires, the United States of America, its territories and possessions, any state of the United States, and/or the District of Columbia.

6.Indemnification. The representations, warranties and covenants made by the Subscriber herein shall survive the closing of the Purchase. The Subscriber agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates and each of their respective officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, and each other person, if any, who controls the Company within the meaning of Section 15 of the Act, against any and all loss, liability, claim, damage and expense whatsoever (including, but not limited to, any and all reasonable attorneys’ fees, including attorneys’ fees on appeal) and expenses reasonably incurred in investigating, preparing or defending against any false representation or warranty or breach or failure by the Subscriber to comply with any covenant or agreement made by the Subscriber herein or in any other document furnished by the Subscriber to any of the foregoing in connection with this transaction.

-7-

 

 

8.Bankruptcy. In the event that the Subscriber files or enters a bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar proceeding, the Subscriber agrees to use its best efforts to avoid the Company being named as a party or otherwise involved in the proceeding. Furthermore, this Agreement should be interpreted so as to prevent, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any bankruptcy trustee, receiver or debtor-in-possession from asserting, requiring or seeking that (i) the Subscriber be allowed by the Company to return any part of the Common Shares to the Company for a refund, or (ii) the Company be mandated or ordered to redeem or withdraw any part of the Common Shares held or owned by the Subscriber.

 

9.Resale Restrictions and Legends.

 

9.1The Subscriber understands, acknowledges and agrees that the Company, and the offer and sale of Common Shares contemplated by this Agreement, are subject to the jurisdiction of the British Columbia Securities Commission (the “BCSC”), and that the first trade of any Common Shares by the undersigned in Canada or through a market in Canada would be a “distribution” under applicable Canadian provincial securities laws, and would have to be qualified by a prospectus filed and duly receipted by the BCSC and any other Canadian securities administrator having jurisdiction with respect thereto.

 

9.2If the Subscriber is a Canadian Subscriber, the Subscriber understands, acknowledges and agrees that:

 

(a)the certificates or other instruments representing the Common Shares will bear the following legend (the “MI 51-105 Legend”):

 

The holder of this security must not trade the security in or from a jurisdiction of Canada unless the conditions in section 13 of Multilateral Instrument 51-105 Issuers Quoted in the U.S. Over-the-Counter Markets are met.”; and

(i)the holding period prescribed by MI 51-105, described below (the “Holding Period”), has expired;

 

(ii)the number of Common Shares that the Subscriber proposes to trade, plus the number of Common Shares, if any, that the Subscriber has traded in the preceding 12-month period, must not exceed 5% of the Company’s outstanding Common Shares;

 

(iii)the trade must be made through an investment dealer registered in a jurisdiction of Canada;

 

-8-

 

 

(iv)the investment dealer must execute the trade through any of the over-the-counter markets in the United States of America (including the OTCID Basic Market);

 

(v)no unusual effort is made to prepare the market or create a demand for the Common Shares;

 

(vi)no extraordinary commission or other consideration is paid to a person for the trade; and

 

(vii)if the Subscriber is an insider of the Company, the Subscriber must reasonably believe that the Company is not in default of applicable securities legislation;

 

(c)the Holding Period prescribed by MI 51-105 is measured from the date on which the Subscriber acquired the subject Common Shares and is (i) six months if the Subscriber is a “control person” of the Company, and (ii) four months for all other Subscribers; and

 

(d)as defined in the Securities Act (British Columbia), “control person” means

 

(i)a person who holds a sufficient number of the voting rights attached to all outstanding voting securities of an issuer, or

 

(ii)each person in a combination of persons, acting in concert by virtue of an agreement, arrangement, commitment or understanding, which holds in total a sufficient number of the voting rights attached to all outstanding voting securities of an issuer

 

to affect materially the control of the issuer, and, where a person or combination of persons holds more than 20% of the voting rights attached to all outstanding voting securities of an issuer, the person or combination of persons shall, in the absence of evidence to the contrary, be deemed to hold a sufficient number of the voting rights to affect materially the control of the issuer.

 

9.3If the Subscriber is a resident of the United States or an International Jurisdiction, did not receive any offer of Common Shares in Canada, and did not execute or deliver this Agreement in Canada, then, to induce the Company to issue the Common Shares to the undersigned without an MI 51-105 Legend, the Subscriber covenants and undertakes not to sell any Common Shares to a person in Canada or through a market in Canada.

 

9.4If the Subscriber is a resident of an International Jurisdiction, it is understood that the certificates or other instruments evidencing the Common Shares will bear a legend required by the applicable securities laws and regulations of such International Jurisdiction.

Customer is also responsible for its own costs and expenses incurred in connection with the Offering on the platform, and Customer acknowledges and agrees that the platform charges fees related to the Offering as set forth in the platform’s terms and conditions. These platform fees are completely unrelated to DM Reach’s compensation as set forth in this Agreement.

 

3.2. Budget and Marketing Spend.

 

3.2.1. As part of engaging DM Reach, Customer is authorizing and directing DM Reach to allocate the marketing and advertising budget expended during the Customer’s marketing campaign (“Marketing Spend”).

 

3.2.2. Partnership Program. The Partnership Program is an invitation based program in which Customers may have the opportunity to purchase advertising slots in a variety of publications subject to Customer’s agreement to the program terms and conditions (“Partnership Program”) as part of the Marketing Spend. Customer acknowledges that it may be eligible for the DealMaker Partnership Program, however DM Reach has sole control of whether Customer is admitted to the Partnership Program. Customer acknowledges that DM Reach manages the program and charges fees for the Partnership Program.

(b) Approved Partnership Budget: On a bi-weekly basis, Customer shall provide written approval of a Partnership Budget. DM Reach shall have full discretion to allocate Partnership Fees for the placement of partnership advertisements up to the bi-weekly Approved Partnership Budget. All Marketing Spend up to the agreed budget amount will be charged directly to Customer’s provided payment method.

 

3.2.5. Customer acknowledges that DM Reach or its affiliates (a) may have an ownership interest in some providers of placement advertisements, details of which are available upon Customer’s request; and (b) as a result of DM Reach relationships and negotiated terms with various vendors, certain benefits may accrue to DM Reach or its affiliates including but not limited to additional revenue from certain partnership placements. Unless Customer expressly instructs otherwise, DM Reach may use its discretion in deploying Marketing Spend, including but not limited to approved Partnership Fees.

 

3.3. Customer Representations. Customer further acknowledges that:

 

3.3.1. Return on Marketing Spend, Partnership spend and/or advertising spend (“Return”) can vary greatly with each Offering or campaign and may differ from historical averages, both with respect to DM Reach fees and fees for any third party partners introduced by DM Reach or its affiliates. Historical data, averages and information are not a representation of what can be achieved in any particular Offering or campaign as each Offering and campaign is unique and influenced by numerous external factors including but not limited to the Customer’s industry, the Customer’s management team, the economic environment at the time of an Offering and the funds available for Marketing Spend and Partnership Fees.

 

3.3.2. There are many marketing strategies and tools available to raise capital. Customer is responsible for selecting the capital raising approach that is best suited to Customer’s business. DM Reach and its affiliates cannot predict and do not guarantee that a market participant will attain a particular result. The success of an Offering depends on the Customer’s own effort, motivation, commitment and follow-through.

 

3.3.3. Customer may use the marketing assets created pursuant to this Agreement for purposes other than raising capital. For example Marketing Spend and Partnership Fees may be used to create valuable Customer brand collateral, brand positioning, investor mailing lists and investor analytics, regardless of the amount of capital raised. Customer shall be solely responsible for using the marketing assets created pursuant to this Agreement for purposes other than raising capital.

 

3.3.4. DM Reach Services may involve, among other things, communicating with third party publishers to secure advertising space for DM Reach Customer (“Publishers”). Customer agrees and warrants that it shall not, directly or indirectly, or through a third party, contact said Publishers by any means and shall not interfere with, circumvent, attempt to circumvent, avoid or bypass DM Reach’s communication with Publishers, interfere with the relationship between DM Reach and Publishers for the purpose of gaining any benefit, whether such benefit is monetary or otherwise or re-sell paid media or advertising placements to DealMaker Customers without the express written consent of DM Reach.

 

38

 

 

3.4 Payment. The Customer will be billed as set out in the Terms. At the end of the month in which the DM Reach Services are delivered, payment will be automatically debited from the Customer’s bank account or credit card on file, with a receipt to be automatically delivered. Invoices will be available for the Customer to review upon request. In respect of Partnership Fees only, such fees shall be due and payable on or before the due date on the invoice (“Due Date”) using ACH or the Client’s pre-authorized payment method on file, unless stated otherwise on the Customer Partnership Insertion Order. DealMaker reserves the right to charge the Client’s pre-authorized payment method on file for the amount of the Partnership Fee invoice in Arrears (as defined below).

 

3.5. Paused DM Reach Services. Customer may request that DM Reach Services (and corresponding Fees) be paused (“Pause Date”). Customer shall pay (a) any Partnership Fees incurred prior to the Pause Date; and (b) DM Reach’s monthly service fees for sixty (60) days from the Pause Date. When a campaign is paused, DM Reach may place the campaign in a queue behind other marketing Campaigns that are ready to launch (“Launch Queue”). Customer acknowledges that DM Reach may not have staff available to relaunch a paused campaign on the Customer’s date of choice. Customer campaign may be relaunched once Customer’s campaign reaches the beginning of the Launch Queue.

 

3.6. Unpaid Invoices. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the Agreement, in the event that Customer fails to pay all outstanding invoices pursuant to this Agreement, Customer agrees that it shall pay the full amount of the outstanding invoices from the proceeds of the Offering, within seven (7) days of the disbursement of such proceeds to the Customer, plus applicable interest. In the event that a Customer payment for any DM Reach fee fails, Customer has fourteen (14) days to re–connect their bank account or credit card and submit payment for any outstanding invoices. In the event that payment for all outstanding invoices is not cleared within 14 days, all partnership advertisements and DM Reach Services will be paused until payment is received and the Customer’s bank account or credit card authorization is restored, except for non-payment of Partnership Fees by Due Date, which shall result in immediate cancellation of the advertising placements. In the event that Customer fails to pay any invoice due and payable (“Arrears”) to DM Reach and such Arrears are not cleared or Customer account is not brought back into good standing within 30 days, all DM Reach Services pursuant to this Agreement will be paused and Customer’s campaign will be placed at the end of the Launch Queue until payment is received in full. Once payment is received in full, Customer’s campaign will move forward through the Launch Queue.

 

Customer acknowledges that marketing assets created using DM Reach Services shall not be released to Customer until all outstanding invoices and Arrears are paid in full. DM Reach shall have the right to register a lien on any assets or property of the Customer in respect of fees owed and outstanding to DM Reach for more than sixty (60) days.

To the extent deemed not to be work made for hire, DM Reach hereby assigns all Work Product and any and all intellectual property rights related thereto to Customer. Upon request, DM Reach will execute all documents necessary to confirm or perfect Customer’s exclusive ownership of the Work Product.

The Parties further agree that this remedy shall not be the sole and exclusive remedy for DM Reach to recover any Losses against Customer in respect of the Agreement.”

(c) If both (i) an Authorized Representative of the Company or authorized representative of its Intermediary and (ii) an Authorized Representative of the Managing Broker-Dealer give written notice to the Escrow Agent of the termination or withdrawal of the Offering, in the form of Exhibit “B” attached hereto, then promptly after such notification, the Escrow Agent shall return, as a complete distribution, each Investor’s Escrow Funds, without deduction, penalty, or expense, to such Investor in the same method as the Investor caused payment pursuant to Section 1.3(a); provided, however, that to the extent an Investor’s Escrow Funds were received by Escrow Agent from a qualified intermediary, such funds shall be returned to such qualified intermediary. In the event of the termination of the Offering pursuant to this Section 2.1(c), the Escrow Funds shall not under any circumstance be returned to the Soliciting Dealers or the Company. The Company represents, warrants, and agrees that the Escrow Funds returned to each Investor (or to such Investor’s qualified intermediary) are and shall be free and clear of any and all claims of the Company and its creditors.

 

(d) If an Investor is entitled to terminate its Subscription, or the Company rejects such Subscription in whole or in part, for which the Escrow Agent has received Escrow Funds, the Escrow Agent shall, upon a written instruction signed by both (i) an Authorized Representative of the Company or authorized representative of its Intermediary and (ii) an Authorized Representative of the Managing Broker-Dealer, in the form of Exhibit “C” attached hereto, promptly return directly to such Investor that portion of the Escrow Funds associated with such Investor and specified in the written instruction in the same method as the Investor caused payment pursuant to Section 1.3(a). If the Escrow Agent has not yet collected funds but has submitted the Investor’s check for collection, the Escrow Agent shall promptly return the funds in the amount of the Investor’s check to such Investor after such funds have been collected. If the Escrow Agent has not yet submitted such Investor’s check for collection, the Escrow Agent shall promptly remit the Investor’s check directly to the Investor. If applicable, any disbursement instructions shall be delivered in compliance with Regulation CF, 17 C.F.R. 227.304.

 

(e) If an Investor elects to remit the Total Purchase Price for such Investor’s purchase of the Securities in lieu of applying the Investor’s Cash Deposit to the Purchase Price, the Escrow Agent shall, upon the written request of both (i) an Authorized Representative of the Company or authorized representative of its Intermediary and (ii) an Authorized Representative of the Managing Broker-Dealer, promptly return directly to such Investor, in the same method as the Investor caused payment pursuant to Section 1.3(a), the Cash Deposit deposited in the Escrow Account on behalf of such Investor. If the Escrow Agent has not yet collected funds but has submitted the Investor’s check for the Cash Deposit for collection, the Escrow Agent shall promptly return the funds in the amount of the Investor’s check to such Investor after such funds have been collected. If the Escrow Agent has not yet submitted such Investor’s check for collection, the Escrow Agent shall promptly remit the Investor’s check directly to the Investor.

 

(f) If any date that is a deadline under this Agreement for giving the Escrow Agent notice or instructions or for the Escrow Agent to take action is not a business day, then such date shall be the business day that immediately precedes such date. A “business day” is any day other than a Saturday, Sunday or any other day on which banking institutions located in the state of Missouri, are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to close.

 

4

 

 

(g) Any delivery of written disbursement and other instructions by an Authorized Representative of the Company, Authorized Representative of the Managing Broker-Dealer, or an authorized representative of an Intermediary pursuant to this Article 2 shall be made in compliance with all applicable state and federal rules and regulations, including, but not limited to, the Securities Act and the Exchange Act.

 

ARTICLE 3- GENERAL ESCROW PROCEDURES

 

3.1 Accounts and Records. Escrow Agent shall keep accurate books and records of all transactions hereunder. The Company shall be responsible for maintaining accurate books and records as to owners of the beneficial interest in the Escrow. The Company and Escrow Agent shall each have reasonable access to one another’s books and records concerning the Offering and the Escrow Account. Upon final disbursement of the Escrow Funds, the Escrow Agent shall deliver to the Company a complete accounting of all transactions relating to the Escrow Account.

 

3.2 Duties. Escrow Agent’s duties and obligations hereunder shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement. Escrow Agent’s duties and obligations are purely ministerial in nature, and nothing in this Agreement shall be construed to give rise to any fiduciary obligations of the Escrow Agent with respect to the Investors or to the other parties to this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Escrow Agent is not charged with any duties or responsibilities with respect to any documentation associated with the Offering and shall not otherwise be concerned with the terms thereof. For purposes of communications and directives, the Escrow Agent shall not accept any instructions from a Soliciting Dealer participating in the Offering. The Escrow Agent shall not be required to notify or obtain the consent, approval, authorization, or order of court or governmental body to perform its obligations under this Agreement, except as expressly provided herein. The parties agree that Escrow Agent shall not be required to expend or risk any of its own funds or otherwise incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder.

 

3.3 Liability Limited. Escrow Agent shall not be liable to anyone whatsoever by any reason of error of judgment or for any act done or step taken or omitted by them in good faith or for any mistake of fact or law or for anything which they may do or refrain from doing in connection herewith unless caused by or arising out of their own gross negligence or willful misconduct. In no event shall the Escrow Agent be liable for any indirect, special, consequential damages, or punitive damages. Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility to ensure anyone’s compliance with any securities laws in connection with the Offering, and Escrow Agent shall not be required to inquire as to the performance or observation of any obligation, term or condition under any other agreements or arrangements.

 

3.4 Fees. The Company shall pay the Escrow Agent the fees based on the fee schedule attached hereto as Exhibit “D”. In addition, the Company shall be obligated to reimburse the Escrow Agent for all fees, costs and expenses incurred or that become due in connection with this Agreement or the Escrow Account, including reasonable attorneys’ fees. Neither the modification, cancellation, termination or rescission of this Agreement nor the resignation or termination of the Escrow Agent shall affect the right of the Escrow Agent to retain the amount of any fee which has been paid, or to be reimbursed or paid any amount which has been incurred or becomes due, prior to the effective date of any such modification, cancellation, termination, resignation or rescission. Escrow Agent is hereby authorized by the Company to deduct from the Escrow Fund any fees not timely paid, and any unpaid fees before final distribution of the Escrow Fund to the Company in accordance with this Agreement; provided, however, that no fees shall be deducted from any amount of Escrow Funds to be returned to Investors. To the extent the Escrow Agent has incurred any such expenses, or any such fee becomes due, prior to any closing, the Escrow Agent shall advise the Company and the Company shall direct all such amounts to be paid directly at any such closing.

 

5

 

 

3.5 Exculpation. Escrow Agent’s duties hereunder shall be strictly limited to the safekeeping of monies, instruments or other documents received by the Escrow Agent and any further responsibilities expressly provided in this Agreement. The Escrow Agent will not be liable for:

 

(a) the genuineness, sufficiency, correctness as to form, manner or execution or validity of any instrument deposited in the Escrow, nor the identity, authority or rights of any person executing the same;

 

(b) any misrepresentation or omission in any documentation associated with the Offering or any failure to keep or comply with any of the provisions of any agreement, contract, or other instrument referred to therein; or

 

(c) the failure of any Soliciting Dealer or Investor to transmit, or any delay in transmitting, any Investor’s Purchase Price to the Company or Escrow Agent.

 

3.6 Interpleader. If (i) conflicting demands are made or notice served upon the Escrow Agent with respect to the escrow or (ii) the Escrow Agent is otherwise uncertain as to its duties or rights hereunder, then the Escrow Agent shall have the absolute right at its election to do either or both of the following:

 

(a) withhold and stop all further proceedings in, and performance of, this Agreement; or

 

(b) file a suit in interpleader and obtain an order from the court requiring the parties to litigate their several claims and rights among themselves. In the event such interpleader suit is brought, the Escrow Agent shall be fully released from any obligation to perform any further duties imposed upon it hereunder, and the Company shall pay the Escrow Agent actual costs, expenses and reasonable attorney’s fees expended or incurred by Escrow Agent, the amount thereof to be fixed and a judgment thereof to be rendered by the court in such suit.

 

3.7 Indemnification and Contribution. The Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) jointly and severally agree to defend, indemnify and hold Escrow Agent and its affiliates and their respective directors, officers, agents (“Indemnified Parties”) harmless from and against all costs, damages, judgments, attorneys’ fees, expenses, obligations and liabilities of any kind or nature (“Damages”) to the fullest extent permitted by law, from and against any Damages or liabilities related to or arising out of this Agreement which the Indemnified Parties may reasonably incur or sustain in connection with or arising out of the escrow or this Agreement and will reimburse the Indemnified Parties for all expenses (including attorneys’ fees) as they are incurred by the Indemnified Parties in connection with investigating, preparing or defending any such action or claim whether or not in connection with pending or threatened litigation in which the Indemnified Parties is or are a party; provided, however, the Indemnifying Party will not be responsible for Damages or expenses which are finally judicially determined to have resulted from an Indemnified Party’s gross negligence or willful misconduct. The provisions of this section shall survive the termination of this Agreement and any resignation of the Escrow Agent.

 

6

 

 

3.8 Compliance with Orders. If at any time Escrow Agent is served with any judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process which in any way affects the Escrow Funds (including but not limited to orders of attachment or any other forms of levies or injunctions or stays relating to the transfer of the Escrow Funds), Escrow Agent is authorized to comply therewith in any manner as it or its legal counsel of its own choosing deems appropriate; and if Escrow Agent complies with any such judicial or administrative order, judgment, decree, writ or other form of judicial or administrative process, Escrow Agent shall not be liable to any of the parties hereto or to any other person or entity even though such order, judgment, decree, writ or process may be subsequently modified or vacated or otherwise determined to have been without legal force or effect.

 

3.9 Resignation.

 

(a) Escrow Agent may resign as escrow holder hereunder upon fourteen (14) days prior written notice to the Company and shall thereupon be fully released from any obligation to perform any further duties imposed upon it hereunder. The Company and Managing Broker-Dealer shall promptly appoint a successor escrow agent. The Escrow Agent will transfer all files and records relating to the Escrow and Escrow Account to any successor escrow holder mutually agreed to in writing by the Company and Managing Broker-Dealer upon receipt of a copy of the executed escrow instructions designating such successor. If the Company and Managing Broker-Dealer have failed to appoint a successor escrow agent prior to the expiration of fourteen (14) calendar days following the delivery of such notice of resignation from Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor escrow agent or for other appropriate relief, and any such resulting appointment shall be binding upon the Company and Managing Broker-Dealer. The Company and Managing Broker-Dealer shall be jointly and severally liable for Escrow Agent’s costs and expenses including attorneys incurred in such proceeding.

 

(b) In the case of a resignation of the Escrow Agent, the Escrow Agent shall have no responsibility for the appointment of a successor escrow agent hereunder. The successor escrow agent appointed by the Company and Managing Broker-Dealer shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Escrow Agent and the other parties an instrument in writing accepting its appointment hereunder. Thereafter, the Escrow Agent shall deliver all of the then-remaining balance of the Escrow Funds, less any expenses then incurred by and unpaid to the Escrow Agent, to such successor escrow agent in accordance with the joint written direction of the Company and Managing Broker-Dealer and upon receipt of the Escrow Funds, the successor escrow agent shall be bound by all of the provisions of this Agreement.

 

3.10 Filings and Resolution. Concurrently or prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Company shall deliver to the Escrow Agent a copy of its certificate of formation or other charter documents, resolutions, and any other account agreements requested by Escrow Agent.

 

3.11 Authorized Representatives. The Company hereby identifies to Escrow Agent the officers, employees or agents designated on Schedule I attached hereto as an authorized representative (each, an “Authorized Representative”) with respect to any notice, certificate, instrument, demand, request, direction, instruction, waiver, receipt, consent or other document or communication required or permitted to be furnished to Escrow Agent. Schedule I may be amended and updated by written notice to Escrow Agent. Escrow Agent shall be entitled to rely on such original or amended Schedule I with respect to any party until a new Schedule I is furnished by such party to Escrow Agent. The Managing Broker-Dealer hereby agrees that any of its officers, employees or agents shall have authority to sign any notice, certificate, instrument, demand, request, direction, instruction, waiver, receipt, consent or other document or communication required or permitted to be furnished to Escrow Agent. If applicable, the Company hereby identifies to Escrow Agent the officers, employees or agents of any Intermediary designated on Schedule I attached hereto as an authorized representative of the Intermediary with respect to any instruction or notice that such Intermediary is required or eligible to give pursuant to this Agreement, including with respect to the disbursement of Escrow Funds and other cash.

 

7

 

 

3.12 Term. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the date first above written and shall end on the date that all funds in the Escrow Account are disbursed pursuant to this Agreement and all reporting obligations specified herein have been satisfied.

 

3.13 Identification Number. The Company represents and warrants that (a) its Federal tax identification number (“TIN”) specified on the signature page of this Agreement underneath its signature is correct and is to be used for 1099 tax reporting purposes, and (b) it is not subject to backup withholding. The Company shall provide the Escrow Agent with the TIN and verification that the person or entity is not subject to backup withholding for any person or entity to whom interest is paid on any of the Proceeds, if applicable. Such verification may be evidenced by providing the Escrow Agent a Subscription Agreement containing appropriate language or a copy of a W-9.

 

3.14 Reliance. When Escrow Agent acts on any communication (including, but not limited to, communication with respect to the transfer of funds) sent by electronic transmission, Escrow Agent, absent gross negligence or willful misconduct, shall not be responsible or liable in the event such communication is not an authorized or authentic communication of the party involved or is not in the form the party involved sent or intended to send (whether due to fraud, distortion or otherwise). Escrow Agent shall not be liable for any losses, costs or expenses arising directly or indirectly from Escrow Agent’s reliance upon and compliance with such instructions notwithstanding such instructions conflict or are inconsistent with a subsequent written instruction. The Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer agree to assume all risks arising out of the use of such electronic transmission to submit instructions and directions to Escrow Agent, including without limitation the risk of Escrow Agent acting on unauthorized instructions, and the risk or interception and misuse by third parties.

 

3.15 Force Majeure. Escrow Agent shall not incur liability for not performing any act or not fulfilling any duty, obligation or responsibility hereunder by reason of any occurrence beyond the control of Escrow Agent (including but not limited to any act or provision of any present or future law or regulation or governmental authority, pandemic or public health emergency, any act of God or war, terrorism or the unavailability of the Federal Reserve Bank or other wire or communication facility).

 

ARTICLE 4- GENERAL PROVISIONS

 

4.1 Notice. Any notice, request, demand or other communication provided for hereunder to be given shall be in writing and shall be delivered personally, by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, or by transmission by a telecommunications device, and shall be effective (a) on the day when personally served, including delivery by overnight mail and courier service, (b) on the third business day after its deposit in the United States mail, and (c) on the business day of confirmed transmission by telecommunications device. The addresses of the parties hereto (until notice of a change thereof is served as provided in this Section 4.1) shall be as follows:

4.2 Amendments. Except as otherwise permitted herein, this Agreement may be modified only by a written amendment signed by the parties hereto, and no waiver of any provision hereof will be effective unless expressed in a writing signed by the parties hereto.

 

4.3 Wiring Instructions. In the event fund transfer instructions are given, such instructions must be communicated to Escrow Agent in writing delivered pursuant to Section 4.1. Escrow Agent shall seek confirmation of such instructions by telephone call-back to an Authorized Representative (in the case of the Company), authorized representative of the Intermediary, or other authorized person, and Escrow Agent may rely upon the confirmations of anyone purporting to be the Authorized Representative of the Company, authorized representative of the Intermediary, or other authorized person so designated. Escrow Agent and the beneficiary’s bank in any funds transfer may rely solely upon any account numbers or similar identifying numbers provided by the Company or the Intermediary to identify (i) the beneficiary, (ii) the beneficiary’s bank, or (iii) an intermediary bank. Escrow Agent may apply any of the Escrow Funds for any payment order it executes using any such identifying number, even when its use may result in a person other than the beneficiary being paid, or the transfer of funds to a bank other than the beneficiary’s bank or an intermediary bank designated. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that such security procedure is commercially reasonable.

 

4.4 Notifications.

 

(a) The Escrow Agent may, but need not, honor and follow instructions, amendments or other orders (“orders”) which shall be provided by telephone facsimile transmission (“faxed”) to the Escrow Agent in connection with this Agreement and may act thereon without further inquiry and regardless of whom or by what means the actual or purported signature of the Company may have been affixed thereto if such signature in Escrow Agent’s sole judgment resembles the signature of the Company. The Company indemnifies and holds the Escrow Agent free and harmless from any and all liability, suits, claims or causes of action which may arise from loss or claim of loss resulting from any forged, improper, wrongful or unauthorized faxed order. The Company shall pay all actual attorney fees and costs reasonably incurred by the Escrow Agent (or allocable to its in-house counsel), in connection with said claim(s).

 

(b) Furthermore, all parties hereby agree that all current and future notices, confirmations and other communications regarding this Agreement specifically, and future communications in general between the parties, may be made by email, sent to the email address of record as set forth above or, solely with regards to business in the normal course, as otherwise from time to time changed or updated, directly by the party changing such information, without necessity of confirmation of receipt, delivery or reading, and such form of electronic communication is sufficient for all matters regarding the relationship between the parties. If any such electronically-sent communication fails to be received for any reason, including but not limited to such communications being diverted to the recipients’ spam filters by the recipients email service provider or technology, or due to a recipients’ change of address, or due to technology issues by the recipients’ service provider, the parties agree that the burden of such failure to receive is on the recipient and not the sender, and that the sender is under no obligation to resend communications via any other means, including but not limited to postal service or overnight courier, and that such communications shall for all purposes, including legal and regulatory, be deemed to have been delivered and received.

 

(c) The Company is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all communications given by it including those given pursuant to electronic means, including but not limited to email, internet, facsimile or text. Escrow Agent shall not be responsible for any interruption in such communication services and the Company shall be responsible for security of all such services.

4.5 Assignment. Except as permitted in this Section 4.5, neither this Agreement nor any rights or obligations hereunder may be assigned by any party hereto without the express written consent of each of the other parties hereto. This Agreement shall inure to and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors, heirs and permitted assigns. Any corporation into which Escrow Agent may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which Escrow Agent will be a party, or any corporation succeeding to all or substantially all the business of Escrow Agent will be the successor of Escrow Agent hereunder without the execution or filing of any paper with any party hereto or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto except where an instrument of transfer or assignment is required by law to effect such succession, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

 

4.6 USA Patriot Act. The Company shall provide to Escrow Agent such information as Escrow Agent may reasonably require to permit Escrow Agent to comply with its obligations under the federal USA PATRIOT Act (Uniting and Strengthening America by Providing Appropriate Tools Required to Intercept and Obstruct Terrorism Act of 2001). Escrow Agent shall not make any payment of all or a portion of the Escrow Fund, to any person unless and until such person has provided to Escrow Agent such documents as Escrow Agent may require to permit Escrow Agent to comply with its obligations under such Act. Further, Company represents and warrants to Escrow Agent that if it is a hedge fund, it will promptly notify Escrow Agent and enter into any agreement or provide any documentation requested by Escrow Agent.

 

4.7 Termination. This Agreement shall terminate when all the Escrow Funds have been disbursed or returned in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement.

 

4.8 Time of Essence. Time is of the essence of these and all additional or changed instructions.

 

4.9 Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which so executed shall, irrespective of the date of its execution and delivery, be deemed an original, and said counterparts together shall constitute one and the same instrument.

 

4.10 Governing Law and Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by, and shall be construed according to, the laws of the State of Missouri. The parties hereby irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts of St. Louis County, Missouri or, if proper subject matter jurisdiction exists, the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Missouri, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Agreement. Each party hereto further irrevocably consents to the service of any complaint, summons, notice or other process relating to any such action or proceeding by delivery thereof to it by hand or by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, in the manner provided for herein. Each party hereto hereby expressly and irrevocably waives any claim or defense in any such action or proceeding based on improper venue or forum non conveniens or any similar basis.

 

4.11 Waiver of Jury Trial. TO THE EXTENT NOT PROHIBITED BY APPLICABLE LAW THAT CANNOT BE WAIVED, EACH PARTY HEREBY EXPRESSLY, INTENTIONALLY, AND DELIBERATELY WAIVES, AND COVENANTS THAT IT WILL NOT ASSERT (WHETHER AS PLAINTIFF, DEFENDANT OR OTHERWISE), ANY RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY FORUM IN RESPECT OF ANY ISSUE, CLAIM, DEMAND, ACTION OR CAUSE OF ACTION ARISING IN WHOLE OR IN PART UNDER, RELATED TO, BASED ON OR IN CONNECTION WITH THIS AGREEMENT OR THE SUBJECT MATTER HEREOF, WHETHER NOW EXISTING OR HEREAFTER ARISING AND WHETHER SOUNDING IN TORT OR CONTRACT OR OTHERWISE (EACH, A “CLAIM”). ANY PARTY HERETO MAY FILE AN ORIGINAL COUNTERPART OR A COPY OF THIS SECTION 4.11 WITH ANY COURT AS WRITTEN EVIDENCE OF THE CONSENT OF EACH SUCH PARTY TO THE WAIVER OF ITS RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY. In the event that the waiver of jury trial set forth in the previous sentence is not enforceable under the law applicable to this Agreement, the parties to this Agreement agree that any Claim, including any question of law or fact relating thereto, shall, at the written request of any party, be determined by judicial reference pursuant to Missouri law.  The parties shall select a single neutral referee, who shall be a retired state or federal judge.  In the event that the parties cannot agree upon a referee, the court shall appoint the referee. The referee shall report a statement of decision to the court. Nothing in this paragraph shall limit the right of any party at any time to exercise self-help remedies, foreclose against collateral or obtain provisional remedies. The parties shall bear the fees and expenses of the referee equally, unless the referee orders otherwise. The referee shall also determine all issues relating to the applicability, interpretation, and enforceability of this paragraph. The parties acknowledge that if a referee is selected to determine the Claims, then the Claims will not be decided by a jury.

 

4.12 Use of Name. The Company and the Managing Broker-Dealer will not make any reference to Enterprise Bank & Trust in connection with the Offering except with respect to its role as Escrow Agent hereunder, and in no event will the Company or the Managing Broker-Dealer state or imply the Escrow Agent has investigated or endorsed the Offering in any manner whatsoever.
