Subsequent Events [Abstract]
Subsequent Events	Subsequent Events Debt Repurchase On April 7, 2026, the Company repurchased $5.2 million principal amount of the 2026 Notes for $3.0 million in cash. Following this transaction, the aggregate principal amount and carrying value of the 2026 Notes were reduced to $15.0 million. A corresponding portion of the 2026 capped calls were terminated following the repurchase as required by their terms for no consideration. The Merger Agreement On April 21, 2026, LivePerson entered into a Merger Agreement (the “Merger Agreement”), by and among LivePerson, SoundHound AI, Inc., a Delaware corporation, and Lightspeed Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound (“Merger Sub”), pursuant to which, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into LivePerson (the “Merger”), with LivePerson surviving the Merger as an indirect wholly owned subsidiary of SoundHound. All capitalized terms used in this summary of the Merger Agreement that are not otherwise defined herein have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Merger Agreement. Subject to the terms and conditions of the Merger Agreement, at the date and time the Merger becomes effective (the “Effective Time”), each share of LivePerson’s common stock issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (other than certain excluded shares) will be automatically converted into the right to receive a number of shares of Class A common stock of SoundHound, par value $0.0001 per share (“SoundHound Common Stock”) equal to (a) the Closing Merger Consideration (as defined below), divided by (b) the total number of shares of LivePerson common stock that are issued and outstanding, or that are issuable upon the conversion, exercise or settlement in full of any rights to acquire LivePerson’s common stock, as of immediately prior to the Effective Time (such number of shares, the “Fully Diluted Common Number”, and the result of the calculation set forth in the foregoing clauses (a) and (b), the “Per Share Merger Consideration”). It is intended that the Merger be treated as a transaction in which gain or loss is recognized for U.S. federal income tax purposes. The aggregate amount of consideration payable by SoundHound to holders of LivePerson’s common stock in connection with the Merger pursuant to the terms of the Merger Agreement will be a number of shares of SoundHound Common Stock equal to the quotient of (a) the Aggregate Consideration Amount (as defined below), divided by (b) the SoundHound Closing Stock Price (the “Closing Merger Consideration”). The “Aggregate Consideration Amount” refers to an amount equal to (a) $42,784,532.64, minus (b) the LivePerson Shortfall Cash (as defined below), plus (c) the aggregate dollar amount of the exercise prices of all In-the-Money Options (as defined below) (other than options assumed by SoundHound and converted into an option to acquire shares of SoundHound Common Stock, in accordance with the terms of the Merger Agreement). “LivePerson Shortfall Cash” refers to an amount equal to (x) $74,000,000 (or, solely for purposes of the Merger Agreement, $71,000,000 if the Closing occurs in July), minus (y) the aggregate principal amount of the 2026 Notes repurchased by LivePerson between April 1, 2026 and the closing of the Merger (the “Closing”) (the figure resulting from clause (x) minus clause (y), the “LivePerson Minimum Cash”), minus (z) the cash and cash equivalents on LivePerson’s balance sheet as of 12:01 a.m. Pacific Time on the date on which the Closing occurs (the “Closing Date”) (net of certain LivePerson transaction expenses as of the Closing) (the foregoing clause (z), the “LivePerson Cash Balance”); provided that, if a negative number results from such calculation, “LivePerson Shortfall Cash” will be $0. The “SoundHound Closing Stock Price” refers to the price per share of SoundHound Common Stock derived from the average of the daily volume weighted average prices of a share of SoundHound Common Stock on the Nasdaq on each of the ten (10) consecutive trading days ending on (and including) the trading day that is three (3) trading days prior to the Closing Date, rounded down to the nearest penny, as reported by Bloomberg; provided that, in the event such price per share (I) exceeds $12 per share, “SoundHound Closing Stock Price” will be $12 per share or (II) falls below $7 per share, “SoundHound Closing Stock Price” will be $7 per share. Under the terms of the Merger Agreement, completion of the Merger is subject to customary closing conditions, including, among others (a) the adoption of the Merger Agreement by the stockholders of LivePerson; (b) the absence of any law, order or other legal impediment prohibiting the consummation of the Merger; (c) the receipt of approvals under certain applicable foreign direct investment laws; (d) the approval for listing the shares of SoundHound Common Stock issuable to the stockholders of LivePerson pursuant to the Merger Agreement on the Nasdaq; (e) the effectiveness of SoundHound’s registration statement on Form S-4; (f) the accuracy of the parties’ respective representations and warranties in the Merger Agreement, subject to specified materiality qualifications; (g) the performance or compliance by SoundHound and LivePerson with the covenants in the Merger Agreement in all material respects; (h) the absence of a material adverse effect on LivePerson (as defined in the Merger Agreement); and (i) the consummation of the Notes Restructuring Transactions (as defined below). The Merger Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by each of SoundHound, Merger Sub and LivePerson, including, among others, covenants by LivePerson regarding the conduct of its business during the pendency of the transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement, public disclosures and other matters. LivePerson is required, among other things, not to solicit alternative business combination transactions and, subject to certain exceptions, not to engage in discussions or negotiations regarding an alternative business combination transaction. Both SoundHound and LivePerson may terminate the Merger Agreement under specified circumstances, including (a) if the Merger is not completed by October 21, 2026 (which date may be extended to December 5, 2026 if certain regulatory approvals have not been obtained); (b) if LivePerson fails to obtain stockholder approval; (c) if LivePerson’s board of directors makes an adverse recommendation change with respect to the Merger or commits a material breach of its non-solicitation obligations; (d) if LivePerson’s board of directors terminates to accept a superior acquisition proposal; or (e) if the Notes Restructuring Transactions are terminated for any reason. The Merger Agreement further provides that LivePerson is required to pay SoundHound a termination fee of $5,000,000, plus SoundHound’s transaction expenses, if the Merger Agreement is terminated under certain specified circumstances, including if LivePerson’s board of directors changes or withdraws its recommendation of the Merger, terminates the Merger Agreement to enter into an agreement with respect to a superior acquisition proposal or if the Notes Restructuring Transactions terminate for any reason or otherwise fail to consummate by the Outside Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement), except where such termination or failure to consummate primarily resulted from SoundHound’s material breach of the Notes Restructuring Agreement; provided that where a termination fee is payable in connection with the failure to consummate, or termination of, the Note Restructuring Transactions, the obligation to reimburse SoundHound’s transaction expenses will be capped at $3,750,000. The Merger Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby, including the Merger (collectively, the “Transactions”) have been unanimously approved by LivePerson’s board of directors, and LivePerson’s board of directors has resolved to recommend to the stockholders of LivePerson to adopt the Merger Agreement, subject to its terms and conditions. The Notes Restructuring Agreement On April 21, 2026, concurrently with the execution and delivery of the Merger Agreement, SoundHound entered into a Notes Restructuring Agreement (the “Notes Restructuring Agreement”) with LivePerson and each of the holders of the 2029 Notes and the Second Lien Notes (together with the 2029 Notes, the “Secured Notes”), pursuant to which and on the terms and subject to the conditions thereof, among other things, the holders of the Secured Notes have agreed to release and deem satisfied the Secured Notes for the consideration contemplated thereby (the transactions contemplated by the Notes Restructuring Agreement, “Notes Restructuring Transactions”). Upon consummation of the Notes Restructuring Transactions, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Notes Restructuring Agreement, each holder of 2029 Notes has agreed to accept, in full and complete satisfaction of all obligations of LivePerson to such holder, (a) a number of shares of SoundHound Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) $178,007,733.68 (the “First Lien Holder Aggregate Consideration Amount”), divided by (ii) the SoundHound Closing Stock Price and (b) an amount in cash paid by LivePerson concurrently with Closing in the amount of (i) accrued and unpaid interest on the 2029 Notes held by such holder, plus (ii) 65% of any LivePerson Excess Cash. Upon consummation of the Notes Restructuring Transactions, on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in the Notes Restructuring Agreement, each holder of Second Lien Notes has agreed to accept, in full and complete satisfaction of all obligations of LivePerson to such holder, such holder’s pro rata portion of (a) a number of shares of SoundHound Common Stock equal to the quotient of (i) $83,207,733.68 (the “Second Lien Holder Aggregate Consideration Amount”), divided by (ii) the SoundHound Closing Stock Price and (b) an amount in cash equal to (i) the principal amount of any 2026 Notes repurchased and retired by LivePerson between April 1, 2026 and the Closing, minus (ii) the amount of cash paid to repurchase such 2026 Notes, plus (iii) 35% of LivePerson Excess Cash. “LivePerson Excess Cash” refers to the difference of (a) the LivePerson Cash Balance, minus (b) the LivePerson Minimum Cash; provided that, if a negative number results from such calculation, “LivePerson Excess Cash” shall be $0. The Notes Restructuring Agreement provides SoundHound the option to elect, at any time before the close of business two business days prior to the Closing Date, to substitute an amount of cash in lieu of all or a portion of the stock consideration paid to the holders of Secured Notes, provided that (a) each holder of Secured Notes receives the same proportion of its consideration in cash and shares of SoundHound Common Stock; (b) regardless of the SoundHound Closing Stock Price, the proportion of consideration satisfied in cash shall be calculated assuming the stock consideration is worth the First Lien Holder Aggregate Consideration Amount and the Second Lien Holder Aggregate Consideration Amount, respectively and (c) in the event SoundHound Closing Stock Price is greater than $12 per share, SoundHound shall not be entitled to substitute cash for more than 50% of the stock consideration. Under the terms of the Notes Restructuring Agreement, completion of the Notes Restructuring Transactions is subject to customary closing conditions, including (a) the absence of any order or other legal impediment prohibiting the consummation of the Notes Restructuring Transactions; (b) the closing conditions under the Merger Agreement being satisfied or waived (other than the consummation of the Notes Restructuring Transactions); (c) the requisite securities law filings having been made; (d) the approval for listing the shares of SoundHound Common Stock issuable to the holder of the Secured Notes pursuant to the Notes Restructuring Agreement on the Nasdaq; (e) the accuracy of the parties’ respective representations and warranties in the Notes Restructuring Agreement, subject to specified materiality qualifications; (f) the performance or compliance by SoundHound, LivePerson and the holders of Secured Notes with the covenants in the Notes Restructuring Agreement in all material respects; (g) the delivery of all required payments under the Notes Restructuring Agreement; (h) the entry into a registration rights agreement in respect of the shares of SoundHound Common Stock issuable to the holders of the Secured Notes; and (i) the substantially contemporaneous consummation of the Notes Restructuring Transactions by the holders of the 2029 Notes and the holders of the Second Lien Notes. The Notes Restructuring Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and covenants made by each of the parties, including, among others, that the shares of SoundHound Common Stock issued in connection with the Notes Restructuring Transactions will be eligible for resale pursuant to an effective registration statement filed by SoundHound with the SEC. The holders of Secured Notes are required, among other things, not to solicit alternative business combination or note restructuring transactions and not to engage in discussions or negotiations regarding an alternative business combination or note restructuring transaction. The Notes Restructuring Agreement automatically terminates upon any termination of the Merger Agreement in accordance with its terms. Additionally, each of the parties may terminate the Notes Restructuring Agreement under specified circumstances, including if the Notes Restructuring Transactions are not completed on or prior to the fifth business day following the Outside Date (as defined in the Merger Agreement). The holders of the 2029 Notes are entitled to terminate the Notes Restructuring Agreement upon (a) any failure by LivePerson to pay amounts due under the indenture or other agreements governing the 2029 Notes or (b) a breach of certain provisions of the indenture governing the 2029 Notes, in each case, subject to cure rights of LivePerson and SoundHound.
