4. Reverse Recapitalization

 

On January 25, 2022 and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Merger was accounted for as a reverse recapitalization in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Under this method of accounting, CF V was treated as the “acquired” company and Satellogic was treated as the acquirer for financial reporting purposes. Accordingly, for accounting purposes, the reverse recapitalization was treated as the equivalent of the Company issuing stock for the net assets of CF V, accompanied by a recapitalization. The net assets of CF V were stated at historical cost, with no goodwill or other intangible assets recorded. Operations prior to the Merger represent those of the Company.

 

The transaction resulted in net cash proceeds of $168 million, after transaction expenses and debt repayment, through the contribution of cash held in CF V’s trust account, net of redemptions by CF V’s public stockholders, and a concurrent private placement offering led by SoftBank’s SBLA Advisers Corp. and Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“CF&Co.”), among other institutional investors, and the Liberty Investment, as defined and described further below.

 

On the Closing Date, the Company consummated the Merger contemplated by the Merger Agreement, including the following:

 

Private Placement (PIPE) Investment

 

Pursuant to the relevant subscription agreement, the Company issued 5,816,770 Class A ordinary shares and a non-redeemable warrant (“PIPE Warrant”) to purchase 2,500,000 Class A ordinary shares to a PIPE investor at an exercise price of $20.00 per share, for an aggregate purchase price of $58.2 million.

 

Forward Purchase Agreement

 

In July 2021, CFAC Holdings V, LLC (the “Sponsor”), CF V, and Satellogic entered into the Amended and Restated Forward Purchase Agreement (“FPA”), pursuant to which Satellogic issued to the Sponsor 1,250,000 Class A ordinary shares, and warrants to purchase an additional 333,333 Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price of $11.50 per share (“Forward Purchase Warrant”), for an aggregate purchase price of $10 million.

 

Cantor Loan

 

Satellogic and Cantor Fitzgerald Securities (“CF Securities”) entered into a Secured Promissory Note, dated December 23, 2021 (the “Promissory Note”), pursuant to which CF Securities agreed to loan $7.5 million to Satellogic (the “Cantor Loan”). On January 18, 2022, CF Securities, Satellogic and Nettar entered into the Promissory Note Waiver Letter (the “Promissory Note Waiver Letter”) pursuant to which Satellogic and CF Securities agreed that the Company would repay the Cantor Loan, including all principal and interest by the issuance of 788,021 Class A ordinary shares. Such repayment occurred on the Closing Date.

 

Redeemable Series X Preferred Stock

 

Per the transaction, the 2,033,230 outstanding shares of redeemable Series X preferred stock and accrued dividends in the combined amount of $21.4 million were converted to 2,140,340 shares of Class A common stock.

 

Liberty Investment

 

On January 18, 2022, Satellogic and CF V entered into the Liberty Subscription Agreement with an investor (the “Liberty Investor”). Satellogic agreed to issue and sell to the Liberty Investor (i) 20,000,000 shares of Class A ordinary shares, (ii) a warrant to purchase up to 5,000,000 of Satellogic’s Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price of $10.00 per share (the “$10.00 Liberty Warrant”), and (iii) a warrant to purchase up to 15,000,000 of Satellogic’s Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price of $15.00 per share (the “$15.00 Liberty Warrant,” and together with the $10.00 Liberty Warrant, the “Liberty Warrants”), in a private placement for an aggregate purchase price of $150.0 million. The transaction closed on February 10, 2022 (the “Liberty Closing” and the transaction collectively, the “Liberty Investment”).

 

An advisory fee is payable by Satellogic in exchange for advisory services to be provided to Satellogic from time to time until a Cessation Event (as defined in the Liberty Subscription Agreement). The advisory fee includes a warrant to purchase 2,500,000 of Satellogic’s Class A ordinary shares at an exercise price of $10.00 per share (the “Liberty Advisory Fee Warrant”), which was issued at the Liberty Closing, and for so long as a Cessation Event has not occurred, $1.25 million to be paid in cash on the 18-month anniversary of the Liberty Closing and on the last day (or, if not a business day, the immediately following business day) of each of the following five successive three-month anniversaries of such 18-month anniversary (each, an “Advisory Fee Cash Payment” and together, the “Advisory Fee Cash Payments”), representing an aggregate of up to $7.5 million in Advisory Fee Cash Payments.

 

The Liberty Advisory Fee Warrant became exercisable as of and from February 10, 2023, and will expire on the fifth anniversary of the Liberty Closing (i.e., February 10, 2027). The Liberty Advisory Fee Warrant is subject to substantially the same terms as the Liberty Warrants.
