The main transactions with related parties are described below: LanzaJet The Company and LanzaJet have entered into a master service agreement defining the terms when LanzaJet is a subcontractor for some of the Company’s projects, and conversely, when the Company is a subcontractor for LanzaJet’s projects. The accounts payable balance is for work that LanzaJet performed as a subcontractor to the Company. In connection with the formation of LanzaJet, the Company entered into a transition services agreement with LanzaJet. The transition services agreement generally sets out the respective rights, responsibilities and obligations of the Company and LanzaJet with respect to R&D services, access to office and laboratory space, business development and other administrative support services. The transition services agreement may be terminated by mutual consent of the Company and LanzaJet, by LanzaJet at any time, and by the Company upon breach or non-payment by LanzaJet. There are no substantive termination penalties in the event the Company terminates. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized revenue from related parties of approximately $194 and $245, respectively, under the transition services agreement. In addition to the licensing and sublicensing of its intellectual property, pursuant to the Investment Agreement as described in Note 6 - Investments, the Company provides certain engineering and other services related to a gas-to-jet demonstration plant currently in development by LanzaJet and other projects whereby LanzaJet is the customer. The Company recognized revenue of $62 and $468, respectively, for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023. In December 2023, LanzaTech sold LanzaJet the right to utilize some of LanzaTech’s completed engineering work as a basis for future LanzaJet projects for a price of $2 million and recorded a $2 million receivable. The payment will be offset against the license fees LanzaTech would pay to LanzaJet for the use of their technology in the Company’s projects. A license agreement is in process and is expected to be executed in 2025, at which time the Company’s $2 million receivable will be reduced to the extent of payments due and payable under the license agreement. The Company recognized $231 in deferred profit for the year ended December 31, 2024. In May 2020, the Company entered into an agreement to lease certain land to a subsidiary of LanzaJet and recognized lease revenue on a straight-line basis over the life of the lease agreement. Refer to Note 18 - Leases, for additional information. LanzaJet Note Purchase Agreement On November 9, 2022, the Company and the other LanzaJet shareholders entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “LanzaJet Note Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which LanzaJet Freedom Pines Fuels LLC (“FPF”), a wholly owned subsidiary of LanzaJet, will issue, from time to time, notes in an aggregate principal amount of up to $147,000 (the “Notes”), comprised of approximately $113,500 aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Senior Secured Notes maturing December 31, 2043 and $33,500 aggregate principal amount of 6.00% Subordinated Secured Notes maturing December 31, 2043. The Company committed to purchase $5,500 of Subordinated Secured Notes, which was funded on May 1, 2023. The Senior Secured Notes are secured by a security interest over substantially all assets of FPF, and both the Senior Secured Notes and the Subordinated Secured Notes are secured by a security interest over the intellectual property owned or in-licensed by LanzaJet. Each purchaser of Notes under the LanzaJet Note Purchase Agreement also received a warrant for the right to purchase 575,000 shares of common stock of LanzaJet for each $10,000 of Notes purchased by such purchaser for an exercise price of $0.01 per share. The warrants are exercisable when the related loan commitment is funded, and may be exercised until the earlier of the third anniversary following the date the holder’s loan commitment is fully funded, or the end of the availability period as defined in the LanzaJet Note Purchase Agreement if the commitment has not been fully funded. In the case of the Company, LanzaTech received warrants to purchase 316,250 shares of common stock of LanzaJet, which became exercisable by the Company when the note was funded on May 1, 2023. The Company exercised the warrants in January 2024. Upon funding of the Notes, the warrants meet the accounting criteria to be considered in-substance common stock, and are accounted for as part of the equity-method investment. Refer to Note 6 - Investments. The LanzaJet Note Purchase Agreement may be amended with the approval of holders of at least 66 2∕3% of the Notes, except with respect to certain rights that require approval of all holders to amend. Upon an event of default under the LanzaJet Note Purchase Agreement, each purchaser may accelerate the payment of its own Notes. Enforcement against the collateral securing the Notes requires the approval of certain holders as specified in the Notes. SGLT The Company supplies SGLT with certain water-soluble organic compounds required in the Company's proprietary gas fermentation process, small-size equipment and consulting services. For the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, the Company recognized revenue of approximately $454 and $75, respectively. The Company also provided engineering services and incurred costs of $1,017 and $853 for the years ended December 31, 2024 and 2023, respectively. Additionally, LanzaTech and SGLT entered into a license agreement in 2019, subsequently amended in August 2023, to provide SGLT with the right to sublicense the intellectual property that LanzaTech previously licensed to SGLT. In exchange, the Company is entitled to receive fixed licensing consideration, calculated as a percentage of the maximum amount of royalties owed to SGLT from its sublicenses. Prior to June 2023, the Company was only entitled to royalties from SGLT, if SGLT received sublicense royalty payments. For the year ended December 31, 2024, the Company did not recognize any sublicensing revenue compared to $1,200 in 2023.
