| WARRANTS | NOTE 17 — WARRANTS
In connection with the Merger Transaction aforementioned in Note 4, the exercise prices for, and the shares underlying, all previously outstanding public warrants (“AGBA Public Warrants”), Class A warrants (“AGBA Class A Warrants”), and common warrants (“AGBA Common Warrants”) (collectively, “AGBA Warrants”) issued by AGBA were adjusted in accordance with the terms of such warrant instruments to reflect the previously announced and implemented 1.9365-to-1 Forward Split and 1-for-4 Reverse Split. An equitable adjustment with a combined ratio of 0.5:1 applied to the number of AGBA Ordinary Shares issuable on the exercise of each AGBA Warrants and the warrant price. Upon the closing, all warrants issued by AGBA and Triller Corp. were assigned to and assumed by Triller Group (“Triller Group Warrants”). Accordingly, as of the close of business acquisition on October 15, 2024, each AGBA Public Warrant became one Triller Group Warrant which entitles the holder thereof to purchase 0.25 shares of Triller Group Common Stock at an adjusted exercise price of $23.00 per whole share (provided, however, warrants are not exercisable for fractional shares, only whole shares; thereby a warrant holder would need to hold four warrants to yield one share). Each AGBA Class A Warrant and each AGBA Common Warrant became one Triller Group Warrant which entitles the holder thereof to purchase 0.5 shares of Triller Group Common Stock at an adjusted exercise price of two times of the original exercise price per whole share (provided, however, warrants are not exercisable for fractional shares, only whole shares; thereby a warrant holder would need to hold two warrants to yield one share). AGBA Public Warrants started trading on a post-adjustment basis as Triller Group Warrants on October 16, 2024 under the new ticker symbol “ILLRW”. All the warrants and their exercise prices are retroactively restated in effect to the forward stock split and reverse stock split (see Note 19).
The Company has issued different classes of warrants, as follows:
Equity Classified Warrants
Each public warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one-quarter (1/4) of one share of common stock at a price of $23.00 per full share, subject to adjustment as discussed herein. Pursuant to the warrant agreement, a warrant holder may exercise its warrants only for a whole number of shares. This means that only an even number of warrants may be exercised at any given time by a warrant holder.
Once the warrants become exercisable, the Company may call the outstanding warrants (including any outstanding warrants issued upon exercise of the unit purchase option issued to Maxim Group LLC) for redemption:
If the Company calls the warrants for redemption as described above, the management of the Company will have the option to require all holders that wish to exercise warrants to do so on a “cashless basis.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole warrants for that number of common stock equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of common stock underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the average reported last sale price of the common stock for the 10 trading days ending on the third trading day prior to the date on which the notice of redemption is sent to the holders of warrants. Whether the Company will exercise its option to require all holders to exercise their warrants on a “cashless basis” will depend on a variety of factors including the price of its common stock at the time the warrants are called for redemption, the Company’s cash needs at such time and concerns regarding dilutive share issuances.
The public warrants qualify for the derivative scope exception under ASC 815 and are therefore presented as a component of stockholders’ (deficit) equity on the consolidated balance sheets without subsequent fair value re-measurement.
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were 4,600,000 public warrants of Triller Group Warrants outstanding.
On October 15, 2024, pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company issued 14,811,260 Triller Group Replacement Warrants to replace Triller Corp. warrants. Each replacement warrant entitles the holder thereof to purchase one share of common stock at a price ranges from approximately $0.03 to $26.70 per full share, subject to adjustment as discussed herein.
The replacement warrants may be exercised in full or in part during the exercise period from the issue date to 2035. The holders will have the option to exercise warrants on a “cashless exercise.” In such event, each holder would pay the exercise price by surrendering the whole warrants for that number of shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing (x) the product of the number of shares underlying the warrants, multiplied by the difference between the exercise price of the warrants and the “fair market value” (defined below) by (y) the fair market value. The “fair market value” shall mean the volume average reported last sale price of the shares for the 10 trading days prior to the exercise date.
As of December 31, 2024 and 2023, there were 14,811,260 and replacement warrants of Replacement Warrants outstanding, respectively. Liability Classified Warrants
