SUBSEQUENT EVENTS | NOTE 16. SUBSEQUENT EVENTS Default and Reservation Letter On March 1, 2024, the Company entered into a Note Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), by and between the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company (the “Borrowers”), and Mosh Man, LLC, (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Borrowers issued to the Purchaser a Senior Secured Promissory Note (the “Original Note”), as modified pursuant to a Letter Agreement dated July 13, 2024, as further modified by a Letter Agreement dated September 12, 2024, and as further modified pursuant to an Amended and Restated Promissory Note, dated September 25, 2024 (the “Amended Note”, and together with the Original Note, the “Note”). In connection with the Agreement, the Borrowers entered into a security agreement by and between the Borrowers, as grantor, and the Purchaser, as grantee. On October 22, 2024, the Company received a Default and Reservation Letter (the “Default Notice”) from counsel for the administrative agent for the Note, (i) notifying the Company that it is in default under the Note for, among other reasons, failing to make a $100,000 payment that was due on October 10, 2024, (ii) accelerating all principal and interest payments due under the Note, and (iii) demanding the Borrowers enter into a lockbox control agreement within ten (10) business days of the date of the Default Notice. As of the date of the Default Notice, the outstanding obligation of the Company under the Note was approximately $1,600,000. On October 24, 2024, the Company received a Notice of UCC Article 9 Public Sale (the “Sale Notice”) from counsel to the administrative agent for the Note notifying the Company that it intended to conduct a public sale of the collateral securing the Company’s obligations under the Note and Security Agreement on November 5, 2024. As further described below, the Company raised sufficient funds through a private placement which closed on November 7, 2024, to repay the Note in full. The Company’s full repayment of the outstanding obligations under such promissory note effectively cured all defaults under the Agreement and terminated the public sale process of the collateral securing the Borrowers’ obligations thereunder. Securities Purchase Agreement On November 6, 2024, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “SPA”) with certain institutional investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to such Purchasers, in a private placement transaction, (i) senior secured promissory notes in aggregate principal amount of $3,600,000 (the “Notes”), and (ii) 808,377 shares (the “Commitment Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.0 million, before deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses payable by the Company. This private placement closed on November 7, 2024 (the “Closing Date”). Pursuant to the SPA, the Company was required to use approximately $2,015,623 of the net proceeds from the private placement to pay, in full, all liabilities, obligations and indebtedness owing by the Company and its subsidiary, Kustom Entertainment, Inc., to Mosh Man, LLC (the “Borrower”). The Company’s full repayment of the outstanding obligations under such promissory note effectively cured all defaults under the promissory note and terminated the public sale process of the collateral securing the Borrowers’ obligations thereunder. The Company anticipates that the remaining net proceeds from the Private Placement after repayment of the Mosh Man promissory note, and after deducting placement agent fees and other offering expenses, will meet the Company’s capital needs for approximately three months, subsequent to which the Company anticipates that it will need to raise additional funds to implement its business plan and to service its ongoing operations. The Company also anticipates pursuing the sale of its video solutions business in the short term. Pursuant to the SPA, the Company is required to file within 30 days of the Closing Date a registration statement with the SEC for a public offering and use its reasonable best efforts to pursue and consummate a follow-on financing transaction within 90 days of the Closing Date. The proceeds of the public offering shall be first used for the repayment of the principal amounts of the Notes. The Company is also required to file within 30 days of the Closing Date a registration statement on Form S-1 (or other appropriate form if the Company is not then S-1 eligible) providing for the resale by the Purchasers of the Commitment Shares issued under the SPA. The Company is required to use commercially reasonable efforts to cause such registration statement to become effective within 60 days following the filing thereof and to keep such registration statement effective at all times until no Purchaser owns any Commitment Shares. Furthermore, pursuant to the SPA, the Company was required to complete the following: (i) the Company’s board of directors shall approve an amendment to the Company’s bylaws setting the quorum required for a special meeting of stockholders to one-third of all stockholders entitled to vote at such special meeting and (ii) the Company shall file with the SEC a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A announcing a meeting of stockholders for the purpose of approving the Series A and Series B warrants issued by the Company on June 25, 2024. Senior Secured Promissory Notes The Notes mature ninety (90) days following their issuance date (the “Maturity Date”) and shall accrue no interest unless and until an Event of Default (as defined in the Notes) has occurred, in which case interest shall accrue at a rate of 14% per annum during the pendency of such Event of Default. In addition, upon customary Events of Default, the Purchasers may require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Notes in cash with a 125% redemption premium. The Purchasers may also require the Company to redeem all or any portion of the Notes in cash upon a Change of Control, as defined in the Notes, at the prices set forth therein. Upon a Bankruptcy Event of Default (as defined in the Notes), the Company shall immediately pay to the Purchasers an amount in cash representing 100% of all outstanding principal, accrued and unpaid interest, if any, in addition to any and all other amounts due under the Notes, without the requirement for any notice or demand or other action by the Purchaser or any other person. If the Company engages in one or more subsequent financings while the Notes are outstanding, the Company will be required to use at least 100% of the gross proceeds of such financing to redeem all or any portion of the Notes outstanding. The Company may also prepay the Notes in whole or in part at any time or from time to time. The Notes also contain customary representations and warranties and covenants of each of the parties. Subject to certain exceptions, the Notes are secured by a first lien and continuing security interest in and to the Collateral (as defined in the Notes). Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule On November 25, 2024, the Company received a notice (the “Notice”) from the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC, which indicated that, as a result of the Company’s delay in filing its Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the period ended September 30, 2024, the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5250(c)(1), which requires Nasdaq-listed companies to timely file all required periodic financial reports with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Notice states that the Company has until January 24, 2025, to submit to Nasdaq an update to its plan to regain compliance with the Rule. The Notice also indicates that any additional exception to allow the Company to regain compliance with all delinquent filings will be limited to up to 180 calendar days from the due date of the Initial Delinquent Filing, or until May 19, 2025. The Notice has no immediate effect on the listing of the Company’s securities on Nasdaq. The Company continues to work diligently to complete its Quarterly Report and plans to file its Quarterly Report as promptly as possible to regain compliance with the Rule. December 20, 2024, the Company received a written notification from The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC indicating that the Company was not in compliance with Nasdaq Listing Rule 5550(a)(2) (the “Minimum Bid Price Requirement”), as the Company’s closing bid price for its common stock was below $1.00 per share for the prior thirty (30) consecutive business days. The Company has been granted a 180-calendar day compliance period, or until June 18, 2025, to regain compliance with the Minimum Bid Price Requirement. If the Company is not in compliance by June 18, 2025, the Company may be afforded a second 180-calendar day compliance period. If the Company does not regain compliance within such compliance period, including any granted extensions, its common stock may be subject to delisting, which delisting may be appealed to a Nasdaq hearings panel. Common Stock Warrant Reset On June 24, 2024, the Company entered into a private placement transaction as previously described in NOTE 12. STOCKHOLDERS’ EQUITY (the “June 2024 Private Placement”). As part of the June 2024 Private Placement, the Company issued an aggregate of 1,195,219 units and pre-funded units at a purchase price of $2.51 per unit (less $0.00001 per pre-funded unit). Each Unit consisted of (i) one share of common stock, par value $0.001 per share, of the Company (the “Common Stock”) (or one pre-funded warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock), (ii) one Series A warrant to purchase one share of Common Stock (the “Series A Warrant”) and (iii) one Series B warrant to purchase such number of shares of Common Stock as will be determined on the Reset Date (as defined below) and in accordance with the terms therein. The Pre-Funded Warrants were immediately exercisable at an exercise price of $0.0001 per share of Common Stock and were fully exercised in August 2024. The Series A Warrants became issued and exercisable on and after the date Stockholder Approval was obtained, has an initial exercise price of $2.51 per share of Common Stock and a term of 5 years after the date that the Company obtains Stockholder Approval. Such Stockholder Approval was obtained at the annual meeting of shareholders held on December 17, 2024 as described below. The Series A and B Warrants are now issued and exercisable at any time after the date Stockholder Approval was obtained (December 17, 2024). Both the Series A and B warrants are subject to price and quantity resets based on the lowest daily weighted average trading price of the shares of Common Stock during a period of 20 trading days, subject to a pricing reset floor of $0.502 per share of Common Stock. Based on the Stockholder Approval date of December 17, 2024 and the weighted average trading price experienced, the Series A and B warrants both reset to the floor price of $0.502 per share and the number of shares underlying the Series A Warrants and Series B Warrants were reset to approximately 5,976,095 shares and 4,780,877 shares, respectively. Both the Series A and B warrants are now fully issued and exercisable subsequent to December 17, 2024.

On November 6, 2024, the Company entered into a SPA with certain institutional investors, pursuant to which the Company issued to such institutional investors, in a private placement transaction, (i) senior secured promissory notes in aggregate principal amount of $3,600,000, and (ii) 808,377 shares of the Company’s common stock, for aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $3.0 million. Termination of Material Definitive Agreement. On June 1, 2023, the Company and its wholly owned subsidiary Kustom Entertainment, Inc. (“Kustom”) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) with Clover Leaf Capital Corp., (“Clover Leaf”), and their subsidiary whereby Kustom and Clover Leaf would merge.

As a result of the Termination Agreement, the Merger Agreement was fully terminated and is of no further force and effect. Amendments to Company Bylaws On November 6, 2024, the Company adopted Amendment No. 1 to its Corporate Bylaws with the approval of the Company’s board of directors. The Bylaws were amended to reduce the quorum requirement at any meeting of the Company’s stockholders to thirty-three and one-third percent (33 1/3%) of the stock issued and outstanding and entitled to vote at such meeting. Annual Meeting The Company held its annual meeting of stockholders (the “Annual Meeting”) on December 17, 2024 for the following purpose:

All of the above matters were approved by the stockholders at the Annual Meeting on December 17, 2024. As a result, the Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule described in NOTE 9. COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES has been cured with the election of four members to serve on our Board of Directors at the Annual Meeting on December 17, 2024.

In connection with the Agreement, the Borrowers entered into a Security Agreement (the “Security Agreement”) by and between the Borrowers, as grantor, and the Purchaser, as grantee. The gross proceeds to the Company are $1,000,000, before paying customary fees and expenses. Pursuant to the Note, the Borrowers shall repay the Note, in full, on the earlier of (i) November 1, 2024, and (ii) the consummation of the merger between Kustom Entertainment and Clover Leaf pursuant to the Merger Agreement among the Company, Kustom Entertainment, Clover Leaf Capital Corp., Yntegra Capital Investments LLC and CL Merger Sub, dated as of June 1, 2023.

The Note bears interest at a rate of 1.58% per month.

Notice of Failure to Satisfy a Continued Listing Rule On March 14, 2024, the Nasdaq Listing Qualifications staff notified Digital Ally, Inc. (the “Company”), that due to resignation of Mr. Michael J. Caulfield from the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”) effective on January 31, 2024, the Company no longer complies with the audit committee and compensation committee requirements as set forth in Listing Rule 5605 of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), including the requirements that there are at least three independent directors on the Company’s audit committee and at least two independent directors on the Company’s compensation committee. The notification has no immediate effect on the Company’s listing on the Nasdaq Capital Market. In accordance with Nasdaq Listing Rules, the Company is provided a cure period until the earlier of the Company’s next annual shareholders’ meeting (or July 29, 2024 if the next shareholders’ meeting will be held before July 29, 2024) or January 31, 2025 (the “Cure Period”).

The management of the Company has resolved to take commercially reasonable steps to fill the vacancy on the Board with a new director who qualifies as independent under the Nasdaq Listing Rules as soon as is practical and anticipates regaining compliance during the Cure Period. However, there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to satisfy Nasdaq Listing Rule 5605 or will otherwise be in compliance with other Nasdaq listing criteria.
