Warrants

Public Warrants

The Company has outstanding 10,997,500 warrants convertible into 733,166 shares of Class A common stock that were issued prior to the Business Combination, of which 10,800,000 convertible into 720,000 shares of Class A common stock are referred to as public warrants and 197,500 convertible into 13,166 shares of Class A common stock are Private Warrants. Each warrant represents the right to purchase 1/15th of a share of the Company’s Class A common stock at a price of $172.50 per whole share. The warrants expire on July 20, 2026.

The Company may call the public warrants for redemption (but not the Private Warrants), in whole and not in part, at a price of $.01 per Public Warrant:

at any time while the public warrants are exercisable,

upon not less than 30 days’ prior written notice of redemption to each public warrant holder,

if, and only if, the reported last sale price of shares of Class A common stock equals or exceeds $270.00 per share, for any 20 trading days within a 30-trading day period ending on the third business day prior to the notice of redemption to public warrant holders, and

if, and only if, there is a current registration statement in effect with respect to shares of Class A common stock underlying such public warrants at the time of redemption and for the entire 30-day trading period referred to above and continuing each day thereafter until the date of redemption.

The right to exercise will be forfeited unless the warrants are exercised prior to the date specified in the notice of redemption.

Private Warrants

The Company has agreed that so long as the Private Warrants are still held by its initial shareholders or their affiliates, it will not redeem such Private Warrants and will allow the holders to exercise such Private Warrants on a cashless basis (even if a registration statement covering shares of Class A common stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants is not effective). As of June 30, 2024, there were 197,500 Private Warrants outstanding.

 

April 2023 Warrants

On April 19, 2023, the Company issued certain lenders warrants (the “April 2023 Warrants”) to purchase 1/15th of a share of the Company’s Class A common stock for each $0.5134 of principal amount of the Notes, for an aggregate of 7,964,550 warrants convertible to 530,970 shares of Class A common stock. The aggregate amount of the April 2023 Warrants is inclusive of 2,288,664 warrants convertible to 152,577 shares of Class A common stock associated with related parties. Each warrant is exercisable immediately, has an exercise price per share of Class A common stock equal to $7.701 per whole share and will expire three years and three months from the date of issuance and may be exercised on a cashless basis if a registration statement registering the resale of the shares issuable upon exercise is not effective. The exercise price was subsequently reduced to $2.75 per whole share. See Note 6 for further discussion. The warrant holder will be prohibited, subject to certain exceptions, from exercising the Warrants for shares of the Company’s Class A common stock to the extent that immediately prior to or after giving effect to such exercise, the warrant holder, together with its affiliates and other attribution parties, would own more than 4.99% or 9.99%, as applicable, of the total number of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock then issued and outstanding, which percentage may be changed at the warrant holders’ election to a higher or lower percentage not in excess of 9.99% upon 61 days’ notice to the Company. The Company agreed to use commercially reasonable efforts to register the shares of Class A common stock underlying the Warrants within 60 days and to have the registration statement declared effective within 30 days thereafter. As of June 30, 2024, there were 7,964,550 April 2023 Warrants outstanding exercisable for up to 530,970 shares of Class A common stock.

 

 

Stryve Foods, Inc. 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”)

The Incentive Plan allows the Company to grant stock options, restricted stock unit awards and other awards at levels determined appropriate by its board of directors and/or compensation committee. The Incentive Plan also allows the Company to use a broad array of equity incentives and performance cash incentives in order to secure and retain the services of its employees, directors and consultants, and to provide long-term incentives that align the interests of its employees, directors and consultants with the interests of its stockholders. The Incentive Plan is administered by the Company’s board of directors or its compensation committee, or any other committee or subcommittee or one or more of its officers to whom authority has been delegated (collectively, the “Administrator”). The Administrator has the authority to interpret the Incentive Plan and award agreements entered into with respect to the Incentive Plan; to make, change and rescind rules and regulations relating to the Incentive Plan; to make changes to, or reconcile any inconsistency in, the Incentive Plan or any award agreement covering an award; and to take any other actions needed to administer the Incentive Plan.

 

The Incentive Plan permits the Administrator to grant stock options, stock appreciation rights (“SARs”), performance shares, performance units, shares of Class A common stock, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), cash incentive awards, dividend equivalent units, or any other type of award permitted under the Incentive Plan. The Administrator may grant any type of award to any participant it selects, but only employees of the Company or its subsidiaries may receive grants of incentive stock options within the meaning of Section 422 of the Internal Revenue Code. Awards may be granted alone or in addition to, in tandem with, or (subject to the repricing prohibition described below) in substitution for any other award (or any other award granted under another plan of the Company or any affiliate, including the plan of an acquired entity).

 

The number of shares reserved for issuance under the Incentive Plan will be reduced on the date of the grant of any award by the maximum number of shares, if any, with respect to which such award is granted. However, an award that may be settled solely in cash will not deplete the Incentive Plan’s share reserve at the time the award is granted. If (a) an award expires, is canceled, or terminates without issuance of shares or is settled in cash, (b) the Administrator determines that the shares granted under an award will not be issuable because the conditions for issuance will not be satisfied, (c) shares are forfeited under an award, (d) shares are issued under any award and the Company reacquires them pursuant to its reserved rights upon the issuance of the shares, (e) shares are tendered or withheld in payment of the exercise price of an option or as a result of the net settlement of outstanding stock appreciation rights or (f) shares are tendered or withheld to satisfy federal, state or local tax withholding obligations, then those shares are added back to the reserve and may again be used for new awards under the Incentive Plan. However, shares added back to the reserve pursuant to clauses (d), (e) or (f) in the preceding sentence may not be issued pursuant to incentive stock options.

 

As of June 30, 2024, the Company had 412,960 shares of Class A common stock available for future issuance under the Incentive Plan. Beginning in 2025, the number of shares available under the Incentive Plan is subject to an automatic annual increase in the number of shares authorized equal to the lesser of (a) 4% of the Company’s total shares of Class A common stock outstanding on December 31st of the immediately preceding year and (b) a number of shares of Class A common stock determined by the Board that is less than (a).
