PROSPECTUS SUMMARY

The following summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus and does not contain all of the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in our securities, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other documents incorporated by reference herein this prospectus and the information set forth under the headings “Risk Factors.”

The Company

Momentus is a U.S. commercial space company that offers satellites, satellite buses, and other satellite components, transportation and infrastructure services, including hosted payloads and other in-orbit services to help enable the commercialization of space. Satellite operators are our principal customers and target customers. Momentus offers satellites and satellite buses and technology designed to meet the specific needs of government and commercials customers.

Products that we provide or plan to provide include satellites, satellite buses, solar arrays, and other satellite components. Our satellites and satellite technologies offer competitive advantages to customers such as greater payload capability, significant on-orbit power, flexibility of design and ability to accommodate a range of sensors, communications equipment, and other space instruments, low cost, and speed of delivery.

Our Tape Spring Solar Array (“TASSA”) is an innovative solar array that Momentus is developing. It offers the potential to produce power at substantially lower cost than competing arrays. It also has important advantages from its ability to be deployed and retracted to protect the array from in-space collisions with debris and to more easily maneuver the satellite to different locations or adjust its characteristics.

Services that we provide or plan to provide include “last mile” satellite transportation, payload-hosting, on-orbit satellite refueling, on-orbit inspection, on-orbit satellite maintenance, de-orbiting, debris removal, and other satellite-to-satellite service offerings. We believe our planned service offerings will increase deployment options for satellite operators and lower their operating costs relative to traditional approaches while also minimizing environmental impact given our choice of water as a propellant.

We plan to provide these services with Orbital Service Vehicles (“OSVs”) that we design and manufacture. While we plan to eventually operate a family of progressively larger and more capable OSVs, we are currently focused on the first vehicle of the family, Vigoride, which will primarily operate in low-earth orbit (LEO). We believe that Vigoride, has the ability to deliver fast, versatile, and cost-effective transportation and infrastructure services to our customers. We conducted our inaugural test and demonstration mission with Vigoride in 2022 as well as two additional test and demonstration missions during 2023. The Company plans to use technological milestones like completion of development of Block 2.2 configuration of the Vigoride OSV, MET propulsion, and TASSA in space, and experience gained in both satellite deployment and hosted payloads as standards to build new OSVs and explore commercial opportunities.

Our transportation service offering focuses on delivering our customers’ satellites to precision orbits of their choosing. To accomplish this, we partner with leading launch service providers, such as SpaceX to “ride share” our customer’s satellites from Earth to space on a midsized or large rocket. Customer satellites can also be carried aboard small launch vehicles for dedicated missions. Our OSVs would then provide “last mile” transportation services from the rocket’s drop-off orbit to a custom orbit of the satellite operator’s choosing. We believe this “hub-and-spoke” model has the potential to expand our customers’ deployment options relative to what they would be able to achieve with ride share launch alone, while reducing their costs relative to what they could achieve with a dedicated small launch vehicle. Over time, we plan to begin introducing additional services beyond transportation.

Our OSVs will initially be expendable, meaning they will be used to perform services before they de-orbit themselves upon completion of their first mission. However, our goal is to eventually make our OSVs reusable, or capable of remaining in space to conduct follow-on missions, which has the potential to lower our cost to deliver services to our customers. To achieve reusability, we need to develop additional technologies that will allow our vehicles to locate and navigate to customer satellites in space, physically connect to them, and perform a variety of robotic operations including fluid transfer.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We are also offering variants of our Vigoride OSV to government and commercial customers as a traditional bus manufacture and satellite prime contractor. Vigoride, and its variants, M-500 and M-1000, are being offered to provide payload technology demonstrations as well as forming the space infrastructure backbone for constellations of satellites.

Momentus offers or plans to offer production and operation of small satellites to meet a range of defense, government, and commercial needs such as communications, tracking of missiles, remote sensing, and space domain awareness. There is a growing need for such capabilities for defense, government, and commercial customers. Technologies used to support the Hosted Payload market are directly applicable to offering customer-owned satellites for use in constellations. Momentus is offering high-volume production of busses, based on Vigoride’s technologies, and integrating customer’s unique payloads for a variety of missions ranging from communications to Earth Observation. This market heavily leverages prior investments in satellite technology to access a large and growing market segment. We introduced variants of Vigoride tailored specifically for constellation applications as M-500 and M-1000 in August 2023.

For a further description of the risks associated with our business, see “Risk Factors.” Investors are cautioned to review the following description of Momentus’ business together with the entirety of this prospectus, including the within-mentioned risk factors.

Corporate Information

We were incorporated in the State of Delaware in May 2019 as a special purpose acquisition company under the name Stable Road Acquisition Corp. On November 13, 2019, we completed our initial public offering. On August 12, 2021, we consummated the Business Combination with Legacy Momentus pursuant to the Merger Agreement. In connection with the Business Combination, we changed our name from Stable Road Acquisition Corp. to Momentus Inc.

Our principal executive offices are located at 3901 N. First Street, San Jose, CA 95134. Our telephone number is (650) 564-7820. Our website address is www.momentus.space.

Momentus, the Momentus logo and our other registered or common law trademarks, service marks or trade names appearing in this prospectus are the property of Momentus. Other trademarks, service marks and trade names used in this prospectus are the property of their respective owners.

Private Placement

On September 15, 2024, in connection with a private placement of securities (the “Private Placement”), we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Investor, pursuant to which we agreed to (i) sell and issue to such stockholder pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock, at a purchase price of $0.55 per Pre-Funded Warrant less the exercise price per Pre-Funded Warrant, (ii) Class A warrants to purchase 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Class A Warrants”), and (iii) Class B warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Class B Warrants” and together with the Class A Warrants, collectively, the “Investor Warrants”).

The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Warrant equals the price per share at which shares of our Common Stock are being sold in the Private Placement minus $0.00001, and the exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant equals $0.00001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and will not expire until exercised in full. The Investor Warrants have an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to $0.575 per share. The Class A Warrants will expire March 17, 2030, and the Class B Warrants will expire March 17, 2026. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Investor Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock. The Investor may not exercise the Investor Warrants until the date that is 6 months after the original issuance date of the Investor Warrants.

In connection with the Private Placement, on September 15, 2024, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with the Placement Agent. As part of its compensation for acting as Placement Agent for the Private Placement, the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds and also agreed to issue to the Placement Agent warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Placement Agent Warrants”) at an exercise price of $0.6325, which are exercisable immediately. One half of the Placement Agent

TABLE OF CONTENTS

Warrants have a term of eighteen months from September 15, 2024, and the other half of the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of five years from September 15, 2024.

The Private Placement closed with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.75 million, before deducting estimated placement agent commissions and expenses in connection with the Private Placement.

In connection with the Private Placement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investor (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that the Company shall file a registration statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) with the SEC no later than the 30th calendar day following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, and have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than 45th calendar day following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, or in the event of a “full review” by the SEC, the 90th day following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.

Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company

As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenues during our last completed fiscal year, we qualify as an “emerging growth company” as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These reduced reporting requirements include, but are not limited to:

•	an exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirement on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting;

•	an exemption from compliance with any requirement that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board may adopt regarding a supplement to the auditor’s report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;

•	reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and

•	an exemption from the requirements to obtain a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation or a stockholder approval of any golden parachute arrangements.

We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the available benefits under the JOBS Act. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different from the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold stock. Further, pursuant to Section 107 of the JOBS Act, as an emerging growth company, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. As a result, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies, which may make our Common Stock less attractive to investors.

We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following November 13, 2024, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our common stock, you should consider carefully the specific risk factors discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on June 6, 2024, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus in its entirety, as well as any amendment or updates to our risk factors reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC, including Form 10-K/A filed on September 16, 2024 and any prospectus supplement hereto or any related free writing prospectus. These risks and uncertainties are not the only risks and uncertainties we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known to us, or that we currently view as immaterial, may also impair our business. If any of the risks or uncertainties described in our SEC filings or any additional risks and uncertainties actually occur, our business, financial conditions, results of operations, stock price and prospectus could be materially and adversely affected. In that even, the price of our common stock could decline, and you could lose part or all of your investment.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

USE OF PROCEEDS

We will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of the Warrant Shares by the Selling Stockholders pursuant to this prospectus. We will bear all fees and expenses incident to our obligation to register such shares.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS

This prospectus covers the resale or other disposition by the Selling Stockholders identified in the table below of the Warrant Shares, consisting of up to an aggregate of 20,500,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant Shares. The Selling Stockholders acquired the Warrant Shares in the transaction described above under the heading “Prospectus Summary—Private Placement.”

The Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the Private Placement provide that the Investor will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Pre-Funded Warrants if such exercise would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the Company’s securities beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the combined voting power of all of the Company’s securities then outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants.

The Investor Warrants to be issued in the Private Placement provide that the Investor will not have the right to exercise any portion of the Investor Warrants if such exercise would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the Company’s securities beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the combined voting power of all of the Company’s securities then outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Investor Warrants.

The table below sets forth, as of October 16, 2024, the following information regarding the Selling Stockholders:

•	Name of the Selling Stockholders;

•	Number of Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders prior to the Private Placement; and

•	Number of Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders after the Private Placement;

The number of shares owned are those beneficially owned, as determined under the rules of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose.

All information with respect to the Common Stock ownership of the Selling Stockholders has been furnished by or on behalf of the Selling Stockholders. We believe, based on information supplied by the Selling Stockholders, that except as may otherwise be indicated in the footnotes to the table below, the Selling Stockholders have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders. Because the Selling Stockholders identified in the table may sell some or all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them and covered by this prospectus, and because there are currently no agreement, arrangements, or understanding with respect to the sale of any of the shares of Common Stock, no estimate can be given as to the number of shares of Common Stock available for resale hereby that will be held by the Selling Stockholders upon termination of this offering. In addition, the Selling Stockholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time from time to time, the shares of Common Stock they beneficially own in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which it provided the information set forth in the table below. We have, therefore, assumed for the purposes of the following table, that the Selling Stockholders will sell all of their respective shares of Common Stock owned beneficially by them that are covered by this prospectus, but will not sell any other shares of Common Stock that they presently own. Except as set forth below, the Selling Stockholders have not held any position or office, or has otherwise had a material relationship, with us or any of our subsidiaries within the past three ears other than as a result of the ownership of our shares of Common Stock or other securities.

As part of its compensation for acting as Placement Agent for the Private Placement, the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds and also agreed to issue to the Placement Agent Warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock at an exercise price of $0.6325, which are exercisable immediately. One half of the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of eighteen months from September 15, 2024, and the other half of the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of five years from September 15, 2024. The warrants are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% (or, at the election of the Selling Stockholder, 9.99%), which such limitation restricts the Selling Stockholder from exercising that portion of the warrants that would result in the Selling Stockholder and its affiliates owning, after exercise, a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION

The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on Nasdaq or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:

•	ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;

•	block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;

•	purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;

•	an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;

•	privately negotiated transactions;

•	settlement of short sales;

•	in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;

•	through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;

•	a combination of any such methods of sale; or

•	any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.

The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), if available, rather than under this prospectus.

Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.

In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholders may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders have informed the Company that they do not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information

TABLE OF CONTENTS

under Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) all of the securities have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect. The securities covered hereby will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the securities covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

Under applicable rules and regulations under the Exchange Act, any person engaged in the distribution of the securities may not simultaneously engage in market making activities with respect to the Common Stock for the applicable restricted period, as defined in Regulation M, prior to the commencement of the distribution. In addition, the Selling Stockholders will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations thereunder, including Regulation M, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of the securities by the Selling Stockholders or any other person. We will make copies of this prospectus available to the Selling Stockholders and have informed them of the need to deliver a copy of this prospectus to each purchaser at or prior to the time of the sale (including by compliance with Rule 172 under the Securities Act).

Item 14.

Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the “DGCL”) provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys’ fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The DGCL provides that Section 145 is not exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The registrant’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended, provide for indemnification by the registrant of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director’s duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The registrant’s Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides for such limitation of liability to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.

The registrant has entered into, and expects to continue to enter into, indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. These agreements provide that the registrant will indemnify each of its directors and such officers to the fullest extent permitted by law.

Any underwriting agreement or distribution agreement that the registrant enters into with any underwriters or agents involved in the offering or sale of any securities registered hereby may require such underwriters or dealers to indemnify the registrant, some or all of its directors and officers and its controlling persons, if any, for specified liabilities, which may include liabilities under the Securities Act.

The registrant also maintains standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided to its directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, while acting in their capacity as directors and officers of the registrant.

Item 15.

forfeitable in the event of early termination by the Company. The shares had an issuance date fair value of $0.1 million to be recorded as consulting expense over the six-month term of the agreement. Related consulting expense of $0.1 million was recognized over the six-month term of the agreement. The Company issued no shares to non-employees during the nine months and year ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.

Secured Convertible Promissory Note with Space Infrastructure Ventures, LLC: On July 12, 2024, the Company and Space Infrastructure Ventures, LLC (“SIV”) a firm that invests in disruptive high-tech/space-tech ventures, entered into a secured convertible promissory note (the “Convertible Note”) pursuant to which Momentus may borrow up to $2.3 million prior to September 1, 2024, consisting of (i) an initial loan in the principal amount of $500,000 which may be borrowed on or after July 17, 2024, and (ii) one or more subsequent loans totaling up to $1.8 million in aggregate principal amount which may be borrowed on or after August 7, 2024, with the $1.8 million subject to certain conditions including the availability of financing to SIV. Borrowings under the Convertible Note bear interest at 15% per annum. Principal on the Convertible Note is to be re-paid in four equal payments on a quarterly basis, commencing on December 1, 2024, and the Convertible Note has a maturity date of September 1, 2025, at which time all accrued interest is due. As of September 30, 2024, all amounts available under the Convertible Note have been borrowed by the Company.

Amounts borrowed under the Convertible Note are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company. In lieu of cash payments of accrued interest, SIV, in its sole discretion, may elect to receive shares of Momentus Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.53 per share (the “Conversion Price”). On the maturity date, subject to the satisfaction of applicable legal and regulatory conditions, all outstanding obligations under the Convertible Note automatically convert into Common Stock at the Conversion Price. The proceeds of the Convertible Note are to be used solely for the following purposes: (a) to fund day-to-day working capital needs in the order course of business, consistent with Momentus practices prior to the execution of the Convertible Note, (b) for general purposes in the ordinary course of business, consistent with Momentus practices prior to the execution of the Convertible Note, and (c) to repay secured indebtedness owed to certain directors and officers of Momentus.

Undertakings.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to

(a)	Provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.

(b)	To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:

(i)	To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;

(ii)

To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the “Calculation of Registration Fee” table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)

To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement, provided, however, that paragraphs (b)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78m or 78o(d)) that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.

II-4

TABLE OF CONTENTS

(c)

That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(d)	To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.

(e)

For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.

(f)

That for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:

(i)	Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;

(ii)	Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;

(iii)

The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and

(iv)	Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.

The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant’s annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan’s annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.

(h)

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.

PLACEMENT AGENT COMMON STOCK PURCHASE WARRANT

MOMENTUS INC.

Warrant Shares:

250,000

Original Issue Date: September 17, 2024

THIS WARRANT TO PURCHASE SHARES OF COMMON STOCK (this “Warrant”) certifies that, for value received, A.G.P./Alliance Global Partners or its designees or assigns (the “Holder”) is entitled, upon the terms and subject to the limitations on exercise and the conditions hereinafter set forth, at any time on or after March 14, 2025 (the “Initial Exercise Date”) and on or prior to 5:00 p.m. (New York City time) on [•] (the “Termination Date”) but not thereafter, to subscribe for and purchase from MOMENTUS INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), up to 250,000 shares of Common Stock, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Company (as subject to adjustment hereunder, the “Warrant Shares”). The purchase price of one Warrant Share under this Warrant shall be equal to the Exercise Price, as defined in Section 2(b).

Section 1. Definitions. Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in that certain Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated September 15, 2024, by and between the Company and the purchaser signatory thereto.

Section 2. Exercise.

a) Exercise of Warrant. Exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant may be made, in whole or in part, at any time or times on or after the Initial Exercise Date and on or before the Termination Date by delivery to the Company of a duly executed PDF copy submitted by e-mail (or e-mail attachment) of the Notice of Exercise in the form annexed hereto, and delivered in accordance with the notice requirements set forth in Section 5(h) herein (the “Notice of Exercise”). Within the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period (as defined in Section 2(d)(i) herein) following the date of exercise as aforesaid, the Holder shall deliver the aggregate Exercise Price for the Warrant Shares specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise by wire transfer or cashier’s check drawn on a United States bank unless the cashless exercise procedure specified in Section 2(c) below is specified in the applicable Notice of Exercise. No ink-original Notice of Exercise shall be required, nor shall any medallion guarantee (or other type of guarantee or notarization) of any Notice of Exercise be required. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Warrant to the Company until the Holder has purchased all of the Warrant Shares available hereunder and the Warrant has been exercised in full, in which case, the Holder shall surrender this Warrant to the Company for cancellation as soon as reasonably practicable following the date on which the final Notice of Exercise is delivered to the Company. Partial exercises of this Warrant resulting in purchases of a portion of the total number of Warrant Shares available hereunder shall have the effect of lowering the outstanding number of Warrant Shares purchasable hereunder in an amount equal to the applicable number of Warrant Shares purchased. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the number of Warrant Shares purchased and the date of such purchases. The Company shall deliver any objection to any Notice of Exercise within one (1) Business Day of receipt of such notice. The Holder and any assignee, by acceptance of this Warrant, acknowledge and agree that, by reason of the provisions of this paragraph, following the purchase of a portion of the Warrant Shares hereunder, the number of Warrant Shares available for purchase hereunder at any given time may be less than the amount stated on the face hereof.

b) Exercise Price. The exercise price per share of Common Stock under this Warrant shall be $0.6325, subject to adjustment hereunder (the “Exercise Price”).

c) Cashless Exercise. If at the time of exercise hereof there is no effective registration statement registering, or the prospectus contained therein is not available for the resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder, then this Warrant may also be exercised, in whole or in part, at such time by means of a “cashless exercise” in which the Holder shall be entitled to receive a number of Warrant Shares equal to the quotient obtained by dividing [(A-B) (X)] by (A), where:

(A) = as applicable: (i) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is (1) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a day that is not a Trading Day or (2) both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof on a Trading Day prior to the opening of “regular trading hours” (as defined in Rule 600(b) of Regulation NMS promulgated under the federal securities laws) on such Trading Day, (ii) at the option of the Holder, either (y) the VWAP on the Trading Day immediately preceding the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise or (z) the Bid Price of the Common Stock on the principal Trading Market as reported by Bloomberg L.P. (“Bloomberg”) as of the time of the Holder’s execution of the applicable Notice of Exercise if such Notice of Exercise is executed during “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day and is delivered within two (2) hours thereafter (including until two (2) hours after the close of “regular trading hours” on a Trading Day) pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof or (iii) the VWAP on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise if the date of such Notice of Exercise is a Trading Day and such Notice of Exercise is both executed and delivered pursuant to Section 2(a) hereof after the close of “regular trading hours” on such Trading Day;

(B) = the Exercise Price of this Warrant, as adjusted hereunder; and

(C) = the number of Warrant Shares that would be issuable upon exercise of this Warrant in accordance with the terms of this Warrant if such exercise were by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise.

“Bid Price” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the bid price of the Common Stock for the time in question (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

“VWAP” means, for any date, the price determined by the first of the following clauses that applies: (a) if the Common Stock is then listed or quoted on a Trading Market, the daily volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on the Trading Market on which the Common Stock is then listed or quoted as reported by Bloomberg (based on a Trading Day from 9:30 a.m. (New York City time) to 4:02 p.m. (New York City time)), (b) if OTCQB or OTCQX is not a Trading Market, the volume weighted average price of the Common Stock for such date (or the nearest preceding date) on OTCQB or OTCQX as applicable, (c) if the Common Stock is not then listed or quoted for trading on OTCQB or OTCQX and if prices for the Common Stock are then reported on The Pink Open Market (or a similar organization or agency succeeding to its functions of reporting prices), the most recent bid price per share of the Common Stock so reported, or (d) in all other cases, the fair market value of a share of Common Stock as determined by an independent appraiser selected in good faith by the Holders of a majority in interest of the Securities then outstanding and reasonably acceptable to the Company, the fees and expenses of which shall be paid by the Company.

If Warrant Shares are issued in such a cashless exercise, the parties acknowledge and agree that in accordance with Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act, the Warrant Shares shall take on the characteristics of the Warrants being exercised, and the holding period of the Warrant Shares being issued may be tacked on to the holding period of this Warrant. The Company agrees not to take any position contrary to this Section 2(c), except to the extent required by applicable law, rule or regulation.

d) Mechanics of Exercise.

i. Delivery of Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. The Company shall cause the Warrant Shares purchased hereunder to be transmitted by the Transfer Agent to the Holder by crediting the account of the Holder’s or its designee’s balance account with The Depository Trust Company through its Deposit or Withdrawal at Custodian system (“DWAC”) if the Company is then a participant in such system and either (A) there is an effective registration statement permitting the issuance of the Warrant Shares to or resale of the Warrant Shares by the Holder or (B) the Warrant Shares are eligible for resale by the Holder without volume or manner-of-sale limitations pursuant to Rule 144 (assuming cashless exercise of the Warrants), and otherwise by physical delivery of a certificate, registered in the Company’s share register in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of Warrant Shares to which the Holder is entitled pursuant to such exercise to the address specified by the Holder in the Notice of Exercise by the date that is the earlier of (i) one (1) Trading Day after delivery of the aggregate Exercise Price to the Company (other than in the instance of a cashless exercise) and (ii) the number of Trading Days comprising the Standard Settlement Period, in each case (i) or (ii) after the delivery to the Company of the Notice of Exercise and subject to payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the instance of a cashless exercise) by such date (such date, the “Warrant Share Delivery Date”). Upon delivery of the Notice of Exercise, the Holder shall be deemed for all corporate purposes to have become the holder of record of the Warrant Shares with respect to which this Warrant has been exercised, irrespective of the date of delivery of the Warrant Shares, provided that payment of the aggregate Exercise Price (other than in the case of a cashless exercise) is received by the Warrant Share Delivery Date. If the Company fails for any reason to deliver to the Holder the Warrant Shares subject to a Notice of Exercise by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder, in cash, as liquidated damages and not as a penalty, for each $1,000 of Warrant Shares subject to such exercise (based on the VWAP of the Common Stock on the date of the applicable Notice of Exercise), $10 per Trading Day (increasing to $20 per Trading Day on the fifth Trading Day after the Warrant Share Delivery Date) for each Trading Day after such Warrant Share Delivery Date until such Warrant Shares are delivered or Holder rescinds such exercise. The Company agrees to maintain a transfer agent that is a participant in the FAST program so long as this Warrant remains outstanding and exercisable. As used herein, “Standard Settlement Period” means the standard settlement period, expressed in a number of Trading Days, on the Company’s primary Trading Market with respect to the Common Stock as in effect on the date of delivery of the Notice of Exercise.

ii. Delivery of New Warrants Upon Exercise. If this Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the request of a Holder and upon surrender of this Warrant certificate, at the time of delivery of the Warrant Shares, deliver to the Holder a new Warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Warrant Shares called for by this Warrant, which new Warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Warrant.

iii. Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) by the Warrant Share Delivery Date, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise.

iv. Compensation for Buy-In on Failure to Timely Deliver Warrant Shares Upon Exercise. In addition to any other rights available to the Holder, if the Company fails to cause the Transfer Agent to transmit to the Holder the Warrant Shares in accordance with the provisions of Section 2(d)(i) above pursuant to an exercise on or before the Warrant Share Delivery Date, and if after such date the Holder is required by its broker to purchase (in an open market transaction or otherwise) or the Holder’s brokerage firm otherwise purchases, shares of Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of the Warrant Shares which the Holder anticipated receiving upon such exercise (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall (A) pay in cash to the Holder the amount, if any, by which (x) the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased exceeds (y) the amount obtained by multiplying (1) the number of Warrant Shares that the Company was required to deliver to the Holder in connection with the exercise at issue times (2) the price at which the sell order giving rise to such purchase obligation was executed, and (B) at the option of the Holder, either reinstate the portion of the Warrant and equivalent number of Warrant Shares for which such exercise was not honored (in which case such exercise shall be deemed rescinded) or deliver to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock that would have been issued had the Company timely complied with its exercise and delivery obligations hereunder. For example, if the Holder purchases Common Stock having a total purchase price of $11,000 to cover a Buy-In with respect to an attempted exercise of shares of Common Stock with an aggregate sale price giving rise to such purchase obligation of $10,000, under clause (A) of the immediately preceding sentence the Company shall be required to pay the Holder $1,000. The Holder shall provide the Company written notice indicating the amounts payable to the Holder in respect of the Buy-In and, upon request of the Company, evidence of the amount of such loss. Nothing herein shall limit a Holder’s right to pursue any other remedies available to it hereunder, at law or in equity including, without limitation, a decree of specific performance and/or injunctive relief with respect to the Company’s failure to timely deliver shares of Common Stock upon exercise of the Warrant as required pursuant to the terms hereof

v. No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.

vi. Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Warrant Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Warrant Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Warrant Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that in the event that Warrant Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all Transfer Agent fees required for same-day processing of any Notice of Exercise and all fees to the Depository Trust Company (or another established clearing corporation performing similar functions) required for same-day electronic delivery of the Warrant Shares.

vii. Closing of Books. The Company will not close its stockholder books or records in any manner which prevents the timely exercise of this Warrant, pursuant to the terms hereof.

e) Holder’s Exercise Limitations. The Company shall not effect any exercise of this Warrant, and a Holder shall not have the right to exercise any portion of this Warrant, pursuant to Section 2 or otherwise, to the extent that after giving effect to such issuance after exercise as set forth on the applicable Notice of Exercise, the Holder (together with the Holder’s Affiliates, and any other Persons acting as a group together with the Holder or any of the Holder’s Affiliates (such Persons, “Attribution Parties”)), would beneficially own in excess of the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below). For purposes of the foregoing sentence, the number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Holder and its Affiliates and Attribution Parties shall include the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant with respect to which such determination is being made, but shall exclude the number of shares of Common Stock which would be issuable upon (i) exercise of the remaining, nonexercised portion of this Warrant beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties and (ii) exercise or conversion of the unexercised or nonconverted portion of any other securities of the Company (including, without limitation, any other Common Stock Equivalents) subject to a limitation on conversion or exercise analogous to the limitation contained herein beneficially owned by the Holder or any of its Affiliates or Attribution Parties. Except as set forth in the preceding sentence, for purposes of this Section 2(e), beneficial ownership shall be calculated in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder, it being acknowledged by the Holder that the Company is not representing to the Holder that such calculation is in compliance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the Holder is solely responsible for any schedules required to be filed in accordance therewith. To the extent that the limitation contained in this Section 2(e) applies, the determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable shall be in the sole discretion of the Holder, and the submission of a Notice of Exercise shall be deemed to be the Holder’s determination of whether this Warrant is exercisable (in relation to other securities owned by the Holder together with any Affiliates and Attribution Parties) and of which portion of this Warrant is exercisable, in each case subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, and the Company shall have no obligation to verify or confirm the accuracy of such determination. In addition, a determination as to any group status as contemplated above shall be determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations promulgated thereunder. For purposes of this Section 2(e), in determining the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock, a Holder may rely on the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock as reflected in (A) the Company’s most recent periodic or annual report filed with the Commission, as the case may be, (B) a more recent public announcement by the Company or (C) a more recent written notice by the Company or the Transfer Agent setting forth the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding. Upon the written or oral request of a Holder, the Company shall within one (1) Trading Day confirm orally and in writing to the Holder the number of shares of Common Stock then outstanding. In any case, the number of outstanding shares of Common Stock shall be determined after giving effect to the conversion or exercise of securities of the Company, including this Warrant, by the Holder or its Affiliates or Attribution Parties since the date as of which such number of outstanding shares of Common Stock was reported. The “Beneficial Ownership Limitation” shall be 4.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of this Warrant. The Holder, upon notice to the Company, may increase or decrease the Beneficial Ownership Limitation provisions of this Section 2(e), provided that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation in no event exceeds 9.99% of the number of shares of the Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the issuance of shares of Common Stock upon exercise of this Warrant held by the Holder and the provisions of this Section 2(e) shall continue to apply. Any increase in the Beneficial Ownership Limitation will not be effective until the 61s^t day after such notice is delivered to the Company. The provisions of this paragraph shall be construed and implemented in a manner otherwise than in strict conformity with the terms of this Section 2(e) to correct this paragraph (or any portion hereof) which may be defective or inconsistent with the intended Beneficial Ownership Limitation herein contained or to make changes or supplements necessary or desirable to properly give effect to such limitation. The limitations contained in this paragraph shall apply to a successor holder of this Warrant.

Section 3. Certain Adjustments.

a) Stock Dividends and Splits. If the Company, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding: (i) pays a stock dividend or otherwise makes a distribution or distributions on shares of its Common Stock or any other equity or equity equivalent securities payable in shares of Common Stock (which, for avoidance of doubt, shall not include any shares of Common Stock issued by the Company upon exercise of this Warrant), (ii) subdivides outstanding shares of Common Stock into a larger number of shares, (iii) combines (including by way of reverse stock split) outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares, or (iv) issues by reclassification of shares of the Common Stock any shares of capital stock of the Company, then in each case the Exercise Price shall be multiplied by a fraction of which the numerator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) outstanding immediately before such event and of which the denominator shall be the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after such event, and the number of shares issuable upon exercise of this Warrant shall be proportionately adjusted such that the aggregate Exercise Price of this Warrant shall remain unchanged. Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision, combination or re-classification.

b) Subsequent Rights Offerings. In addition to any adjustments pursuant to Section 3(a) above, if at any time that the Warrant is outstanding, the Company grants, issues or sells any Common Stock Equivalents or rights to purchase stock, warrants, securities or other property pro rata to the record holders of any class of shares of Common Stock (the “Purchase Rights”), then the Holder will be entitled to acquire, upon the terms applicable to such Purchase Rights, the aggregate Purchase Rights which the Holder could have acquired if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date on which a record is taken for the grant, issuance or sale of such Purchase Rights, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the grant, issue or sale of such Purchase Rights (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Purchase Right would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Purchase Right to such extent (or beneficial ownership of such shares of Common Stock as a result of such Purchase Right to such extent) and such Purchase Right to such extent shall be held in abeyance for the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

c) Pro Rata Distributions. During such time as this Warrant is outstanding, if the Company shall declare or make any dividend or other distribution of its assets (or rights to acquire its assets) to holders of shares of Common Stock, by way of return of capital or otherwise (including, without limitation, any distribution of stock or other securities, property or options by way of a dividend, spin off, reclassification, corporate rearrangement, scheme of arrangement or other similar transaction) (a “Distribution”), at any time after the issuance of this Warrant, then, in each such case, the Holder shall be entitled to participate in such Distribution to the same extent that the Holder would have participated therein if the Holder had held the number of shares of Common Stock acquirable upon complete exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on exercise hereof, including without limitation, the Beneficial Ownership Limitation) immediately before the date of which a record is taken for such Distribution, or, if no such record is taken, the date as of which the record holders of shares of Common Stock are to be determined for the participation in such Distribution (provided, however, that to the extent that the Holder’s right to participate in any such Distribution would result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation, then the Holder shall not be entitled to participate in such Distribution to such extent (or in the beneficial ownership of any shares of Common Stock as a result of such Distribution to such extent) and the portion of such Distribution shall be held in abeyance for the benefit of the Holder until such time, if ever, as its right thereto would not result in the Holder exceeding the Beneficial Ownership Limitation).

d) Fundamental Transaction. If, at any time while this Warrant is outstanding, the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any merger or consolidation of the Company with or into another Person, (ii) the Company (or any Subsidiary), directly or indirectly, effects any sale, lease, license, assignment, transfer, conveyance or other disposition of all or substantially all of the Company’s assets in one or a series of related transactions, (iii) any, direct or indirect, purchase offer, tender offer or exchange offer (whether by the Company or another Person) is completed pursuant to which holders of Common Stock are permitted to sell, tender or exchange their shares for other securities, cash or property and has been accepted by the holders of 50% or more of the voting power of the common equity of the Company, (iv) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions effects any reclassification, reorganization or recapitalization of shares of Common Stock or any compulsory share exchange pursuant to which the shares of Common Stock are effectively converted into or exchanged for other securities, cash or property, or (v) the Company, directly or indirectly, in one or more related transactions consummates a stock or share purchase agreement or other business combination (including, without limitation, a reorganization, recapitalization, spin-off, merger or scheme of arrangement) with another Person or group of Persons whereby such other Person or group acquires more than 50% of the voting power of the common equity of the Company (each a “Fundamental Transaction”), then, upon any subsequent exercise of this Warrant, the Holder shall have the right to receive, for each Warrant Share that would have been issuable upon such exercise immediately prior to the occurrence of such Fundamental Transaction, at the option of the Holder (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant), the number of shares of Common Stock of the successor or acquiring corporation or of the Company, if it is the surviving corporation, and any additional consideration (the “Alternate Consideration”) receivable as a result of such Fundamental Transaction by a holder of the number of shares of Common Stock for which this Warrant is exercisable immediately prior to such Fundamental Transaction (without regard to any limitation in Section 2(e) on the exercise of this Warrant). For purposes of any such exercise, the determination of the Exercise Price shall be appropriately adjusted to apply to such Alternate Consideration based on the amount of Alternate Consideration issuable in respect of one share of Common Stock in such Fundamental Transaction, and the Company shall apportion the Exercise Price among the Alternate Consideration in a reasonable manner reflecting the relative value of any different components of the Alternate Consideration. If holders of Common Stock are given any choice as to the securities, cash or property to be received in a Fundamental Transaction, then the Holder shall be given the same choice as to the Alternate Consideration it receives upon any exercise of this Warrant following such Fundamental Transaction. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, in the event of a Fundamental Transaction, the Company or any Successor Entity (as defined below) shall, at the Holder’s option, exercisable at any time concurrently with, or within thirty (30) days after, the consummation of the Fundamental Transaction (or, if later, the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction), purchase this Warrant from the Holder by paying to the Holder, as described below, an amount of consideration equal to the Black Scholes Value (as defined below) of the remaining unexercised portion of this Warrant on the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction, provided, however, that, if the Fundamental Transaction is not within the Company’s control, including not approved by the Company’s Board of Directors, Holder shall only be entitled to receive from the Company or any Successor Entity, as of the date of the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction the same type or form of consideration (and in the same proportion), valued at the Black Scholes Value of the unexercised portion of this Warrant, that is being offered and paid to the holders of Common Stock of the Company in connection with the Fundamental Transaction, whether that consideration be in the form of cash, stock or any combination thereof, or whether the holders of Common Stock are given the choice to receive from among alternative forms of consideration in connection with the Fundamental Transaction; provided further, that if holders of Common Stock of the Company are not offered or paid any consideration in such Fundamental Transaction, such holders of Common Stock will be deemed to have received shares of the Successor Entity (which Successor Entity may be the Company following such Fundamental Transaction) in such Fundamental Transaction. “Black Scholes Value” means the value of this Warrant based on the Black-Scholes Option Pricing Model obtained from the “OV” function on Bloomberg determined as of the day of consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction for pricing purposes and reflecting (A) a risk-free interest rate corresponding to the U.S. Treasury rate for a period equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable contemplated Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date, (B) an expected volatility equal to 100 day volatility obtained from the HVT function on Bloomberg (determined utilizing a 365-day annualization factor) as of the Trading Day immediately following the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, (C) the underlying price per share used in such calculation shall be the greater of (i) the sum of the price per share being offered in cash, if any, plus the value of any non-cash consideration, if any, being offered in such Fundamental Transaction and (ii) the highest VWAP during the period beginning on the Trading Day immediately preceding the announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction (or the consummation of the applicable Fundamental Transaction, if earlier) and ending on the Trading Day of the Holder’s request pursuant to this Section 3(d) and (D) a remaining option time equal to the time between the date of the public announcement of the applicable Fundamental Transaction and the Termination Date and (E) a zero cost of borrow. The payment of the Black Scholes Value will be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds within five Business Days of the Holder’s election (or, if later, on the effective date of the Fundamental Transaction). The Company shall cause any successor entity in a Fundamental Transaction in which the Company is not the survivor (the “Successor Entity”) to assume in writing all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents in accordance with the provisions of this Section 3(d) pursuant to written agreements in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Holder prior to such Fundamental Transaction and shall, at the option of the Holder, deliver to the Holder in exchange for this Warrant a security of the Successor Entity evidenced by a written instrument substantially similar in form and substance to this Warrant which is exercisable for a corresponding number of shares of capital stock of such Successor Entity (or its parent entity) equivalent to the shares of Common Stock acquirable and receivable upon exercise of this Warrant (without regard to any limitations on the exercise of this Warrant) prior to such Fundamental Transaction, and with an exercise price which applies the exercise price hereunder to such shares of capital stock (but taking into account the relative value of the shares of Common Stock pursuant to such Fundamental Transaction and the value of such shares of capital stock, such number of shares of capital stock and such exercise price being for the purpose of protecting the economic value of this Warrant immediately prior to the consummation of such Fundamental Transaction), and which is reasonably satisfactory in form and substance to the Holder. Upon the occurrence of any such Fundamental Transaction, the Successor Entity shall succeed to, and be substituted for (so that from and after the date of such Fundamental Transaction, the provisions of this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents referring to the “Company” shall refer instead to the Successor Entity), and may exercise every right and power of the Company and shall assume all of the obligations of the Company under this Warrant and the other Transaction Documents with the same effect as if such Successor Entity had been named as the Company herein.

e) Calculations. All calculations under this Section 3 shall be made to the nearest cent or the nearest 1/100th of a share, as the case may be. For purposes of this Section 3, the number of shares of Common Stock deemed to be issued and outstanding as of a given date shall be the sum of the number of shares of Common Stock (excluding treasury shares, if any) issued and outstanding.

f) Notice to Holder.

i. Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 3, the Company shall promptly deliver to the Holder by email a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Warrant Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.

ii. Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Common Stock, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Common Stock, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Common Stock rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any stockholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Common Stock, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Common Stock is converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall cause to be delivered by email to the Holder at its last email address as it shall appear upon the Warrant Register of the Company, at least 20 calendar days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Common Stock of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Common Stock of record shall be entitled to exchange their shares of the Common Stock for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to deliver such notice or any defect therein or in the delivery thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. To the extent that any notice provided in this Warrant constitutes, or contains, material, non-public information regarding the Company or any of the Subsidiaries, the Company shall simultaneously file such notice with the Commission pursuant to a Current Report on Form 8-K. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein.

Section 4. Transfer of Warrant.

a) Transferability. Subject to compliance with any applicable securities laws and the conditions set forth in Section 4(d) hereof and to the provisions of Section 4.1 of the Purchase Agreement, this Warrant and all rights hereunder are transferable, in whole or in part, upon surrender of this Warrant at the principal office of the Company or its designated agent, together with a written assignment of this Warrant substantially in the form attached hereto duly executed by the Holder or its agent or attorney and funds sufficient to pay any transfer taxes payable upon the making of such transfer. Upon such surrender and, if required, such payment, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in the name of the assignee or assignees, as applicable, and in the denomination or denominations specified in such instrument of assignment, and shall issue to the assignor a new Warrant evidencing the portion of this Warrant not so assigned, and this Warrant shall promptly be cancelled. The Warrant, if properly assigned in accordance herewith, may be exercised by a new holder for the purchase of Warrant Shares without having a new Warrant issued.

b) New Warrants. This Warrant may be divided or combined with other Warrants upon presentation hereof at the aforesaid office of the Company, together with a written notice specifying the names and denominations in which new Warrants are to be issued, signed by the Holder or its agent or attorney. Subject to compliance with Section 4(a), as to any transfer which may be involved in such division or combination, the Company shall execute and deliver a new Warrant or Warrants in exchange for the Warrant or Warrants to be divided or combined in accordance with such notice. All Warrants issued on transfers or exchanges shall be dated the Issue Date of this Warrant and shall be identical with this Warrant except as to the number of Warrant Shares issuable pursuant thereto.

c) Warrant Register. The Company shall register this Warrant, upon records to be maintained by the Company for that purpose (the “Warrant Register”), in the name of the record Holder hereof from time to time. The Company may deem and treat the registered Holder of this Warrant as the absolute owner hereof for the purpose of any exercise hereof or any distribution to the Holder, and for all other purposes, absent actual notice to the contrary.

Section 5. Miscellaneous.

a) No Rights as Stockholder Until Exercise; No Settlement in Cash. This Warrant does not entitle the Holder to any voting rights, dividends or other rights as a stockholder of the Company prior to the exercise hereof as set forth in Section 2(d)(i), except as expressly set forth in Section 3. Without limiting any rights of a Holder to receive Warrant Shares on a “cashless exercise” pursuant to Section 2(c) or to receive cash payments pursuant to Section 2(d)(i) and Section 2(d)(iv) herein, in no event shall the Company be required to net cash settle an exercise of this Warrant.

b) Loss, Theft, Destruction or Mutilation of Warrant. The Company covenants that upon receipt by the Company of evidence reasonably satisfactory to it of the loss, theft, destruction or mutilation of this Warrant or any stock certificate relating to the Warrant Shares, and in case of loss, theft or destruction, of indemnity or security reasonably satisfactory to it (which, in the case of the Warrant, shall not include the posting of any bond), and upon surrender and cancellation of such Warrant or stock certificate, if mutilated, the Company will make and deliver a new Warrant or stock certificate of like tenor and dated as of such cancellation, in lieu of such Warrant or stock certificate.

c) Saturdays, Sundays, Holidays, etc. If the last or appointed day for the taking of any action or the expiration of any right required or granted herein shall not be a Business Day, then such action may be taken or such right may be exercised on the next succeeding Business Day.

d) Authorized Shares.

The Company covenants that, during the period the Warrant is outstanding, it will reserve from its authorized and unissued Common Stock a sufficient number of shares to provide for the issuance of the Warrant Shares upon the exercise of any purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company further covenants that its issuance of this Warrant shall constitute full authority to its officers who are charged with the duty of issuing the necessary Warrant Shares upon the exercise of the purchase rights under this Warrant. The Company will take all such reasonable action as may be necessary to assure that such Warrant Shares may be issued as provided herein without violation of any applicable law or regulation, or of any requirements of the Trading Market upon which the Common Stock may be listed. The Company covenants that all Warrant Shares which may be issued upon the exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant will, upon exercise of the purchase rights represented by this Warrant and payment for such Warrant Shares in accordance herewith, be duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid and nonassessable and free from all taxes, liens and charges created by the Company in respect of the issue thereof (other than taxes in respect of any transfer occurring contemporaneously with such issue).

Except and to the extent as waived or consented to by the Holder, the Company shall not by any action, including, without limitation, amending its certificate of incorporation or through any reorganization, transfer of assets, consolidation, merger, dissolution, issue or sale of securities or any other voluntary action, avoid or seek to avoid the observance or performance of any of the terms of this Warrant, but will at all times in good faith assist in the carrying out of all such terms and in the taking of all such actions as may be necessary or appropriate to protect the rights of Holder as set forth in this Warrant against impairment. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company will (i) not increase the par value of any Warrant Shares above the amount payable therefor upon such exercise immediately prior to such increase in par value, (ii) take all such action as may be necessary or appropriate in order that the Company may validly and legally issue fully paid and nonassessable Warrant Shares upon the exercise of this Warrant and (iii) use commercially reasonable efforts to obtain all such authorizations, exemptions or consents from any public regulatory body having jurisdiction thereof, as may be, necessary to enable the Company to perform its obligations under this Warrant.

Before taking any action which would result in an adjustment in the number of Warrant Shares for which this Warrant is exercisable or in the Exercise Price, the Company shall obtain all such authorizations or exemptions thereof, or consents thereto, as may be necessary from any public regulatory body or bodies having jurisdiction thereof.

e) Jurisdiction. All questions concerning the construction, validity, enforcement and interpretation of this Warrant shall be determined in accordance with the provisions of the Purchase Agreement.

f) Restrictions. The Holder acknowledges that the Warrant Shares acquired upon the exercise of this Warrant, if not registered, and the Holder does not utilize cashless exercise, will have restrictions upon resale imposed by state and federal securities laws.

g) Nonwaiver and Expenses. No course of dealing or any delay or failure to exercise any right hereunder on the part of Holder shall operate as a waiver of such right or otherwise prejudice the Holder’s rights, powers or remedies. Without limiting any other provision of this Warrant or the Purchase Agreement, if the Company willfully and knowingly fails to comply with any provision of this Warrant, which results in any material damages to the Holder, the Company shall pay to the Holder such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover any costs and expenses including, but not limited to, reasonable attorneys’ fees, including those of appellate proceedings, incurred by the Holder in collecting any amounts due pursuant hereto or in otherwise enforcing any of its rights, powers or remedies hereunder.

h) Notices. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Holder hereunder including, without limitation, any Notice of Exercise, shall be in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service, addressed to the Company, at 3901 N. First Street, San Jose, California 95134, Attention: Chief Executive Officer, email address: john.rood@momentus.space, or such other email address or address as the Company may specify for such purposes by notice to the Holders. Any and all notices or other communications or deliveries to be provided by the Company hereunder shall be in writing and delivered personally, by e-mail, or sent by a nationally recognized overnight courier service addressed to each Holder at the e-mail address or address of such Holder appearing on the books of the Company. Any notice or other communication or deliveries hereunder shall be deemed given and effective on the earliest of (i) the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail at the e-mail address set forth in this Section prior to 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any date, (ii) the next Trading Day after the time of transmission, if such notice or communication is delivered via e-mail at the e-mail address set forth in this Section on a day that is not a Trading Day or later than 5:30 p.m. (New York City time) on any Trading Day, (iii) the second Trading Day following the date of mailing, if sent by U.S. nationally recognized overnight courier service, or (iv) upon actual receipt by the party to whom such notice is required to be given.

i) Limitation of Liability. No provision hereof, in the absence of any affirmative action by the Holder to exercise this Warrant to purchase Warrant Shares, and no enumeration herein of the rights or privileges of the Holder, shall give rise to any liability of the Holder for the purchase price of any Common Stock or as a stockholder of the Company, whether such liability is asserted by the Company or by creditors of the Company.

j) Remedies. The Holder, in addition to being entitled to exercise all rights granted by law, including recovery of damages, will be entitled to specific performance of its rights under this Warrant. The Company agrees that monetary damages would not be adequate compensation for any loss incurred by reason of a breach by it of the provisions of this Warrant and hereby agrees to waive and not to assert the defense in any action for specific performance that a remedy at law would be adequate.

k) Successors and Assigns. Subject to applicable securities laws, this Warrant and the rights and obligations evidenced hereby shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the successors and permitted assigns of the Company and the successors and permitted assigns of Holder. The provisions of this Warrant are intended to be for the benefit of any Holder from time to time of this Warrant and shall be enforceable by the Holder or holder of Warrant Shares.

l) Amendment. This Warrant may be modified or amended or the provisions hereof waived with the written consent of the Company, on the one hand, and the Holder of this Warrant, on the other hand.

m) Severability. Wherever possible, each provision of this Warrant shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of this Warrant shall be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provisions or the remaining provisions of this Warrant.

n) Headings. The headings used in this Warrant are for the convenience of reference only and shall not, for any purpose, be deemed a part of this Warrant.

“Person” is any individual, sole proprietorship, partnership, limited liability company, joint venture, company, trust, unincorporated organization, association, corporation, institution, public benefit corporation, firm, joint stock company, estate, entity or government agency.

Use of Proceeds

Borrower shall use the proceeds of this Note first for the payment of earned employee retention payments and the expenses incidental to this Note, and thereafter for working capital and general corporate purposes.

Optional Prepayment

The Borrower shall have the option to prepay all or any portion of the Note at any time without penalty. Any prepayments shall be applied first to the Lender’s Expenses, second to accrued and unpaid interest and then to reduce principal.

Grant of Security Interest

Borrower hereby grants the Lender, to secure the payment and performance in full of all of the Obligations, a continuing security interest in, and pledges to the Lender, the Collateral, wherever located, whether now owned or hereafter acquired or arising, and all proceeds and products thereof. If Borrower shall acquire a commercial tort claim (as defined in the Code), Borrower shall grant to the Lender a security interest therein and in the proceeds thereof, all upon the terms of this Note, with such writing to be in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Lender. This Note shall be senior in priority to all unsecured indebtedness of the Lender.

If this Agreement is terminated, the Lender’s Lien in the Collateral shall continue until the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) are repaid in full in cash. Upon payment in full in cash of the Obligations (other than inchoate indemnity obligations) and at such time as the Lender’s obligation to extend the Note has terminated, the Lender shall, at the sole cost and expense of Borrower, promptly release its Liens in the Collateral and provide customary payoff release documents evidencing the termination of the Liens in the Collateral, and all rights therein shall revert to Borrower.

Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to file financing statements or take any other action required to perfect the Lender’s security interests in the Collateral, without notice to Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions to perfect or protect the Lender’s interest or rights under this Note. As soon as practicable following such filing, the Lender shall notify Borrower in writing of such filing and the circumstances related thereto.

Borrower also hereby pledges, assigns and grants to the Lender a security interest in all the outstanding membership interests of Momentus Space LLC, a Delaware limited liability company, together with all proceeds and substitutions thereof, all cash, stock and other moneys and property paid thereon, all rights to subscribe for securities declared or granted in connection therewith, and all other cash and noncash proceeds of the foregoing, as security for the performance of the Obligations. Borrower will execute and deliver such documents, and take or cause to be taken such actions, as the Lender may reasonably request to perfect or continue the perfection of the Lender’s security interest in such membership interests.

Remedies Upon an Event of Default

Upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, the Lender may, without notice or demand, do any or all of the following: (i) deliver notice of the Event of Default to Borrower, or (ii) by notice to Borrower declare all Obligations immediately due and payable (but if an Event of Default described in clause (iii) in the definition of an Event of Default occurs all Obligations shall be immediately due and payable without any action by the Lender).

Immediately upon the occurrence and during the continuance of an Event of Default, this Note shall accrue interest at a per annum rate equal to the Basic Rate plus three percentage points (3.00%) (the “Default Rate”). Payment or acceptance of the increased interest rate is not a permitted alternative to timely payment and shall not constitute a waiver of any Event of Default or otherwise prejudice or limit any rights or remedies of the Lender.

Mandatory Prepayments

Up to $2,300,000

July __, 2024

FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MOMENTUS INC. (the “Borrower”) hereby unconditionally promises to pay to the order of SPACE INFRASTRUCTURES VENTURES, LLC (the “Lender”) the principal amount of up to $2,300,000 to the account specified by the Lender from time to time in writing, pursuant to the terms of this secured, convertible promissory note (together with all documents, instruments, and agreements entered into and/or delivered in connection herewith, the “Secured Note”).

Recitals

WHEREAS, the Borrower requires additional liquidity to fund day-to-day working capital needs and for general corporate purposes; and

WHEREAS, the Borrower has requested that the Lender provide financing to fund such needs and requirements, and the Lender has agreed to provide secured, convertible financing in two tranches in accordance with the provisions of this Secured Note.

NOW, THEREFORE, for valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Borrower and Lender agree as follows:

1. Principal Amount of Note. The principal amount of the loans to be extended pursuant to this Secured Note is $2,300,000 (the “Total Commitment Amount”), which shall be made available to the Borrower in two tranches, subject to the prior satisfaction of all conditions to borrowing in this Secured Note, as follows: (a) on or after July 17, 2024, the Borrower may borrow up to $500,000 of the Total Commitment Amount (the “First Loan”), and (b) on or after August 7, 2024, the Borrower may borrow up $1,800,000 of the Total Commitment Amount (the “Second Loan”, and together with the First Loan, the “Loans”; each date on which the Borrower borrows a Loan (i.e., receives Loan funds), a “Borrowing Date”). Any amounts repaid may not be re-borrowed. The Lender may, in its sole and absolute discretion, agree to provide additional convertible debt financing under this Secured Note, subject to mutual agreement between the Lender and the Borrower on the terms of such additional financing. The Loans must be borrowed prior to September 1, 2024, or the commitment of the Lender and this Secured Note shall terminate (the “Outside Date”). If no Loans are made under this Secured Note, the Borrower shall have no repayment obligations hereunder.

2. Interest. (a) Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the Loans once made at a rate of fifteen percent (15%) per annum based on a 360-day year and shall be added to the principal amount of the Secured Loan and paid on the Maturity Date (as defined below). (b) In the event of an Event of Default (as defined below), default interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal amount of the Secured Note at 2% per annum above the non-default rate set forth above (“Default Interest”) and be payable on demand in cash. (c) At the option of the Lender, all accrued but unpaid interest, whether at the non-default or default rate, shall be paid by the Borrower to Lender in common shares of the Borrower (“Common Stock”) in accordance with Section 13(a).

3. Amortization. The Borrower shall repay the principal amount of the Loans as follows: (a) twenty-five percent (25%) on December 1, 2024, (b) twenty-five percent (25%) on March 1, 2025, (c) twenty-five percent (25%) on June 1, 2025, and (d) twenty-five percent (25%) on September 1, 2025.

4. Use of Proceeds. The Loans shall be used solely for the following purposes: (a)funding day-to-day working capital needs in the ordinary course of business, consistent with the Borrower’s practices prior to the date hereof; (b) for general corporate purposes in the ordinary course of business, consistent with the Borrower’s practices prior to the date hereof; and (c) solely from the proceeds of the Second Loan, to repay the secured loans (and all accrued but unpaid interest, fees and expenses) made to the Borrower pursuant to those certain Secured Promissory Notes each dated June 21, 2024 (the “Director Notes”), in the aggregate amount of $500,000, made individually by (i) Brian Kabot, (ii) Paul Ney, (iii) Chris Hadfield, (iv) John Rood, (v) Victorino Mercado, and (vi) Mitchel Kugler to the Borrower (collectively the “Director Loans”, and each lender of a Director Loan, a “Director Lender”). Unless already paid from the sale of any Permitted Collateral Sale (as defined below) or otherwise, the Director Loans shall be repaid from the proceeds of the Second Loan. It is a condition to the making of the Second Loan and repayment of the Director Loans therefrom that all Director Lenders provide Lender with a full written release of liabilities arising from or related to the Director Notes, this Secured Note and the transaction contemplated hereby and to be effective upon the receipt of repayment funds by the individual Director Lenders, which releases shall be in form and substance satisfactory to Lender (the “Director Lender Releases”). Upon receipt by Lender of all Director Lender Releases, Lender shall wire transfer the applicable repayment amounts directly to each Director Lender, and then make the balance of the proceeds of the Second Loan available to the Borrower. Without the prior written consent of the Lender, the Borrower shall not use the Loans for any other purposes, including, without limitation, to (a) increase the compensation of any employees or directors, (b) purchase the assets or equity of any other person or entity, (c) extend financing to any person or entity, (d) fund any capital expenditures in excess of $100,000, (e) except for the Director Loans, repay any debts or obligations existing as of the date hereof other than in the ordinary course of business, and (f) invest in any person, entity or enterprise.

5. Maturity Date. Unless paid or converted earlier as provided herein, and subject to Sections 2(b) and (c), all amounts due and payable under this Secured Note, including all outstanding principal, accrued interest, fees and costs (collectively, the “Obligations”), shall be due and payable in full and in cash on September 1, 2025 (the “Maturity Date”), unless extended by the Lender in its sole and absolute discretion. All payments received shall be applied first against costs of collection (if any), then against accrued and unpaid (or unconverted) interest on this Secured Note and then against the outstanding principal balance, if any, of this Secured Note.

6. Voluntary Prepayments. The Borrower shall have the right to repay all, but not less than all, Obligations outstanding under this Secured Note in full at any time prior to the Maturity Date subject to the Borrower paying the Lender a prepayment fee equal to ten percent (10%) of the outstanding Obligations due under this Secured Note on the date of the payment (the “Prepayment Fee”). Any prepayments that do not include the Prepayment Fee shall be void.

7. Mandatory Repayments. Unless the CFIUS Condition (as defined below) shall have been satisfied in which case Section 13(b)(ii) shall apply, the Borrower shall repay all, but not less than all, Obligations outstanding under this Secured Note in cash in the event of any of the following: (a) a merger or consolidation in which the Borrower is a constituent party and the Borrower issues shares of its capital stock pursuant to such merger or consolidation, (b) the sale, lease, transfer, exclusive license or other disposition (whether by merger, consolidation or otherwise), in a single transaction or series of related transactions, by the Borrower of all or a material portion of the assets of the Borrower (excluding any proceeds from a Permitted Collateral Sale), (c) the liquidation, dissolution or winding up of the Borrower or any of its subsidiaries, whether voluntary or involuntary (the occurrence of any of the events set forth in clauses (a) - (c), each, a “Liquidity Event”), or (d) any change in the ownership of the Borrower occurs where any person or entity, directly or indirectly, becomes the beneficial owner of more than fifty percent (50%) of the voting shares of the Borrower (or obtains the rights to acquire such shares), a majority of the members of the board of directors in existence on the date hereof shall be replaced with other members, or management of the Borrower declares that a change of control has occurred, irrespective of any occurrences described above (a “Change of Control”).

To induce the Lender to enter into this Secured Note, the Borrower represents and warrants to the Lender as of this date and on each Borrowing Date as set forth below.

(i) Director Lender Consents. The Borrower shall have obtained and delivered to the Lender the written consent of each Director Lender authorizing the Borrower to enter into and perform its obligations under this Secured Note, borrow the Loans on the provisions set forth in this Secured Note and incur the Obligations, and grant the Lender the liens and security interests on the Collateral.

10. Priority of Security Interest. The Borrower represents, warrants, and covenants that the security interest granted herein is and shall at all times continue to be a first priority fully perfected security interest in the Collateral (subject only to the Lender and/or the Borrower taking whatever actions are required under applicable law to perfect and maintain such security interest); provided, however, that until all amounts owing under the Director Notes are repaid in full, this Secured Note shall be immediately subordinated to the liens and security interests of the Director Lenders to the extent set forth in the Director Notes as such documents exist on this date without regard to any amendments, restatements, modifications or supplements thereto.

11. Permitted Collateral Sale. At any time prior to the Outside Date, the Borrower is hereby authorized to sell in one or more transactions to a third party, for reasonable equivalent value, any Collateral, other than, without Lender’s prior written consent, any Collateral that is a core business asset of the Borrower (a “Permitted Collateral Sale”), free and clear of Lender’s liens and security interests, and Lender’s liens and security interests on and in any Collateral sold in accordance with this Section shall not attach to the cash proceeds of any such sales; provided, however, that if any Permitted Collateral Sale is later unwound for whatever reason by a court of competent jurisdiction, the parties to such transaction, or otherwise, the Lender’s liens and security interests on and in all Collateral that was included in such Permitted Collateral Sale shall automatically be reinstated and apply without the need for any action on the part of the Borrower or Lender. Such core business assets shall include without limitation all intellectual property and know-how; all tools and facilities which are not commercially replaceable that are used in the construction of Vigoride or M1000 satellites or the retractable solar arrays; and other such devices or materials which are not commercially replaceable that are necessary for the launch and post-launch servicing of satellites. Any sales of (i) any completed or partial Vigorides, or (ii) any commercially replaceable test bed components relating to Vigorides for reasonable equivalent value shall be deemed a Permitted Collateral Sale.

12. Authorization to File Financing Statements. The Borrower hereby authorizes the Lender to file financing statements and all other instruments, without notice to the Borrower or any further approvals or signatures of the Borrower, with all appropriate jurisdictions and agencies to perfect or protect the Lender’s lien, interest, and rights under this Secured Note. Such financing statements and other instruments may specify the Collateral as “all assets of the Debtor” or words of similar effect, or as being of an equal or lesser scope, or with greater detail, all in the Lender’s discretion.

13. Conversion. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Secured Note, unless and until (a) shareholder approval is obtained by the Borrower, the conversion of Obligations pursuant to the provisions of this Secured Note is limited such that the Lender’s ownership of Common Stock does not exceed twenty percent (20%) of the Borrower’s outstanding shares on any date of determination (the “NASDAQ Condition”), and (b) the CFIUS Condition is satisfied, no conversion of Obligations under this Secured Note shall occur.

(a) Optional Conversion of Interest. Subject to satisfaction of the CFIUS Condition and the NASDAQ Condition, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in lieu of making cash payments of accrued interest due to the Lender pursuant to the terms of this Secured Note, the Lender, in its sole discretion, may elect to convert the amount of any accrued and unpaid interest due and payable pursuant to this Secured Note into that number of shares of Common Stock at a conversion price equal to the five (5) day average closing price of the Borrower’s Common Stock as reported on Nasdaq for the five (5) trading days immediately preceding the date hereof (the “Conversion Price”), as shall equal the amount of accrued and unpaid interest due and payable to the Lender. Upon the Lender’s delivery to the Borrower of a notice of election to convert, the outstanding accrued but unpaid interest subject to conversion shall be converted without any further action by the Lender. The Lender shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock as of the date of the Lender’s delivery to the Borrower of the applicable notice of election to convert.

(b) Automatic Conversion of all Obligations.

i. On the Maturity Date, and subject to (a) receipt of the CFIUS Approval (defined below) or (b) the passage of 30 days following the acceptance of a filing (either a declaration or a joint notice) by CFIUS, consistent with 31 C.F.R. § 800.401 ((a) and (b) collectively, the “CFIUS Condition”), applicable law and/or Nasdaq requirements, all of the outstanding Obligations shall automatically convert into Common Stock at the Conversion Price. The Lender shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock upon such conversion. The CFIUS Approval means any of the following: (i) CFIUS has issued a written notice stating that the transactions described in the CFIUS Filing do not constitute a “covered transaction” pursuant to 31 C.F.R. § 800.213, (ii) CFIUS has issued a written notice that it has concluded all action under the Defense Production Act of 1950, as amended, and all rules and regulations thereunder (the “DPA”) with respect to the transactions described in the CFIUS Filing pursuant to 31 C.F.R. § 800.407(a)(4), 31 C.F.R. § 800.506, or 31 C.F.R. § 800.508(d), (iii) in response to the parties’ filing of a CFIUS declaration specifically, pursuant to 31 C.F.R. § 800.407(a)(2), CFIUS has informed the parties to the CFIUS declaration that it is not able to complete action under the DPA on the basis of the CFIUS declaration and that the parties may file a CFIUS notice under the DPA; or (iv) if CFIUS has sent a report to the President of the United States requesting the President’s decision, the President has announced a decision pursuant to the DPA not to take any action to suspend or prohibit the transactions described in the CFIUS Filing; provided, however, that if the written notice described in clause (ii) above or the President’s decision described in clause (iv) above requires or contemplates that Lender or any of its affiliates take or agree to take, or will take or agree to take, any actions that would, individually or in the aggregate, reasonably be expected to constitute a Burdensome Condition (as defined below), then such notice or Presidential decision will not constitute CFIUS Approval unless Lender agrees to accept such Burdensome Condition.

ii. In addition, prior to the Maturity Date and subject to satisfaction of the CFIUS Condition, all of the outstanding Obligations shall automatically convert into Common Stock at the Conversion Price upon the occurrence of a Liquidity Event or Change of Control. The Lender shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder of such shares of Common Stock upon such conversion.

iii. In the event that the Borrower at any time after the date hereof effects a subdivision or split of its Common Stock into a greater number of shares of Common Stock or shall issue a stock dividend on the outstanding Common Stock, then the Conversion Price shall be proportionately decreased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of this Secured Note shall be proportionately increased, effective as of the close of business on the date of such subdivision or split or the issuance of such dividend. In the event the Borrower at any time after the date hereof effects a combination or reverse stock split into a lesser number of shares of Common Stock, then in each such event the Conversion Price shall be proportionately increased and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Obligations shall be proportionately decreased, effective as of the close of business on the date of such combination or reverse stock split.

iv. If at any time the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Obligations shall not be sufficient to effect the conversion of such Obligations, the Borrower shall effect all such corporate action as is necessary to increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any such Obligations as shall be sufficient for such purpose. In the event, for whatever reason, the Borrower is not able to, or does not, increase its authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any such Obligations as shall be sufficient for such purpose within thirty (30) days of the time of conversion, the Borrower shall pay all underlying Obligations in cash within one (1) Business Day thereafter.

v. The Lender is an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Lender agrees to furnish any additional information requested by the Borrower or any of its affiliates to assure compliance with applicable U.S. federal and state securities laws in connection with the conversion of any Obligations.

vi. The Lender understands that the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Obligations has not been, and may not be, registered under the Securities Act or state securities laws by reason of specific exemptions from the registration provisions thereof which depend on, among other things, the bona fide nature of the investment intent and the accuracy of the Lender’s representations as expressed herein. The Lender understands that any unregistered shares of Common Stock are “restricted securities” under U.S. federal and applicable state securities laws and that, pursuant to these laws, the Lender must hold such shares of Common Stock indefinitely unless they are registered with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and registered or qualified by state authorities, or an exemption from such registration and qualification requirements is available. The Lender acknowledges that the Borrower has no obligation to register or qualify the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Obligations for resale and further acknowledges that, if an exemption from registration or qualification is available, it may be conditioned on various requirements including, but not limited to, the time and manner of sale, the holding period for the shares of Common Stock, and on requirements relating to the Borrower which are outside of the Lender’s control, and which the Borrower is under no obligation, and may not be able, to satisfy. The Lender acknowledges that the Borrower has taken no action in foreign jurisdictions with respect to the Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Obligations, and the Borrower is under no obligation to do so.

14. Events of Default. Upon the occurrence of any of the following events and subsequent provision by the Lender to the Borrower of written notice of such event and, unless otherwise specified below, a five (5) Business Day opportunity to cure (each, an “Event of Default”), the Lender may, at its option, by written notice to the Borrower declare all Obligations to be immediately due and payable in full:

(a) The Borrower shall fail to pay any amounts due under this Secured Note in accordance with the provisions hereof;

(b) The Borrower shall fail to comply with any of the covenants or other provisions of this Secured Note;

(c) The incurrence by the Borrower of any secured indebtedness that is senior to or pari passu with the Obligations in contradiction to this Secured Note;

(d) Any representation, warranty, or other statement made by the Borrower in this Secured Note shall prove to have been incorrect or misleading in any material respect when made (including on this date and any Borrowing Date) or deemed to have been made;

(e) The commencement against the Borrower of a bankruptcy case or any other liquidation proceeding under laws affecting the rights of debtors and creditors, or a receiver, liquidator, monitor, or other fiduciary or similar person or entity is appointed over the Borrower or any of the Collateral and, such case, proceeding or appointment continues for 30 days unless the Borrower earlier acquiesces in any such action taken against it, in which case, upon written notice from the Lender to the Borrower, the cure period shall be terminated;

(f) The commencement by the Borrower of a bankruptcy case or any other liquidation proceeding under laws affecting the rights of debtors and creditors, assignment for the benefit of creditors, wind-down, or other in-court or out-of-court liquidation or similar process or proceeding (any such proceeding described in this Section 14(f) or in Section 14(e) above, a “Bankruptcy Event”); there shall be no cure period with respect to the occurrence of an Event of Default under this clause; and

(g) Any default shall occur under any Director Note and be continuing beyond any applicable cure period.

As used in this Secured Note, “Business Day” means any day that is not a Saturday or Sunday or any day on which commercial banks in Delaware are required or permitted to be closed.

15. Remedies.

(a) In addition to any other rights, remedies, or powers that the Lender may have under this Secured Note or pursuant to applicable law, and without limitation thereof, upon and at any time during the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Lender may, by written notice to Borrower, declare the Obligations to be immediately due and payable and may exercise some or all of its rights and remedies under this Secured Note or applicable law against the Borrower and/or the Collateral.

(b) The rights, powers, and remedies of the Lender, as provided in this Secured Note and under applicable law, shall be cumulative and concurrent and may be pursued singularly, successively, or together, at the sole discretion of the Lender, and may be exercised as often as occasion therefor shall occur; and the failure to exercise or to continue to exercise any such right or remedy shall in no event be construed as a waiver or release thereof. Unless required by, and not waivable under, applicable law in any action, sale of collateral, or other proceedings to enforce this Secured Note, the Lender need not file or produce the original of this Secured Note but only need file or produce a photocopy of this Secured Note certified by the Lender to be a true and correct copy of this Secured Note.

(c) Notwithstanding the subordination of the Obligations to the obligations to the Director Lenders under the Director Notes, the Lender shall be entitled to pursue all of its rights and remedies hereunder and under applicable law as long as the Lender shall pay off all obligations owing under the Director Notes from the net proceeds of any such enforcement action prior to applying any of such proceeds to the Obligations.

16. Rescission of Payments. If at any time any payment made by the Borrower under this Secured Note is rescinded or must otherwise be restored or returned upon the insolvency, bankruptcy, liquidation, or reorganization of the Borrower or otherwise, the Borrower’s obligation to make such payment shall be reinstated as though such payment had not been made and to the extent that this Secured Note has been terminated or deemed terminated, this Secured Note shall be revived and reinstated with respect thereto. The obligations of the Borrower under this Section shall survive the Maturity Date, the payment in full of the Obligations, or conversion to Common Stock, and the termination of this Secured Note.

17. No Control, Joint Venture, or Partnership. In connection with this Secured Note, the Borrower is not providing to the Lender, and the Lender is not receiving, any power to “control” (as defined at 31 C.F.R. § 800.208) the Borrower or any rights, access, or involvement (as described in 31 C.F.R. § 800.211(b)) in the Borrower. Nothing in this Secured Note shall be interpreted or construed (a) to create an association, agency relationship, joint venture, or partnership among the parties or to impose any partnership obligation or liability upon either party or (b) to create any other relationship between the parties other than that of borrower and lender. In addition, nothing in this Secured Note shall be deemed to authorize or empower either party to act as agent for the other party, or to conduct business in the name, or for the account, of the other party.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision in this Secured Note, the obligation of the Borrower with respect to each indemnity given by them in this Secured Note shall survive the Maturity Date, the payment in full of the Obligations, or conversion to Common Stock, and the termination of this Secured Note.

20. Further Assurances.

(a) Upon request by the Lender, the Borrower shall make, execute, and deliver or cause to be made, executed, and delivered to the Lender and, where appropriate, cause to be recorded or filed, as applicable, and from time to time thereafter to be re-recorded or refiled, as applicable, at such time and in such offices and places as shall be deemed necessary or desirable by the Lender, any and all such instruments of further assurance, certificates and other documents as may, in the opinion of Lender, be necessary or desirable to effectuate, complete, or perfect, or to continue and preserve, the operation and effect of this Secured Note, including, without limitation, the security interest granted herein.

(b) The Lender and Borrower shall reasonably cooperate in connection with the CFIUS Filing, including (i) cooperate in all respects with each other in connection with the drafting and filing of the CFIUS Filing and CFIUS’s review or investigation, (ii) respond to all inquiries received from CFIUS for additional information or documentation within the period of time permitted by CFIUS, (iii) promptly inform each other of any material communication with CFIUS, (iv) permit each other to review any communication by the other and consult with the other in advance of any planned meeting or conference, with CFIUS, and, to the extent permitted by CFIUS, grant each other the opportunity to attend and participate in any such planned meeting or conference, provided that neither the Lender nor the Borrower shall be obligated to disclose to the other any communication to CFIUS that the Lender or the Borrower considers to be proprietary or confidential. The Lender and Borrower shall use their reasonable best efforts to take, or cause to be taken, all actions, and to do, or cause to be done, and to assist and cooperate with each other, all commercially reasonable things necessary, proper, or advisable to satisfy the CFIUS Condition, as promptly as practicable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section shall require, or be construed to require, Lender or any of its affiliates to agree to, or to accept or suffer to have imposed upon it, with respect to Lender, Borrower, or any of their respective affiliates, any condition or mitigation that would require any of them to (i) sell, hold separate, divest, or discontinue, before or after the closing date, any material assets, businesses, or interests of Lender, Borrower, or any of their respective affiliates; (ii) accept any conditions relating to, or changes or restrictions in, the operations of any such assets, businesses, or interests that could reasonably be expected to materially adversely impact the economic or business benefits to Lender of any and all transactions in which the parties intend to engage or be otherwise materially adverse to the Lender, the Borrower, or their affiliates; or (iii) make any material modification or waiver of the terms and conditions of this Secured Note or the documents setting forth the provisions of any and all transactions in which the parties intend to engage following the date hereof (any of the foregoing actions identified in (i), (ii), and (iii), a “Burdensome Condition”).

21. Conditions to Borrowing. The following conditions apply to the making of any Loan (unless otherwise indicated):

(a) No Event of Default and no condition which would constitute an Event of Default with the giving of notice or lapse of time or both shall exist, and there shall not have occurred a Bankruptcy Event;

(b) Each of the representations and warranties made by the Borrowers herein shall be true and correct immediately prior to, and after giving effect to, such Loan;

(c) The making of such Loan shall not violate any requirement of law and shall not be enjoined, temporarily, preliminarily, or permanently;

(d) If after giving effect to a request for, and the borrowing of, a Loan, the Total Commitment Amount will not be exceeded;

(e) For each Loan, there shall not have occurred and be continuing any Event of Default (as defined in the Director Notes) under any Director Notes;

(f) There shall not have occurred any event, change, circumstance, effect, or other matter that has, individually or in the aggregate, a material adverse effect on (i) the financial condition or results of operations of the Borrower or its business, taken as a whole as of the date hereof; or (ii) the condition or value of any material portion of the Borrower’s assets;

(g) The Borrower shall have sent a written borrowing notice (each, a “Borrowing Notice”) to the Lender setting forth (i) the amount of the Loan being requested, (ii) the date the Loan being requested is to be funded, which shall be at least five (5) Business Days after the date the Lender receives the Borrowing Notice, (iii) the intended use of the proceeds of the Loan, (iv) where the Loan funds should be wire transferred, including where the funds should be wired by the Lender to repay the Director Loans in connection with a borrowing of the Second Loan, (v) confirmation that no Events of Default have occurred and are continuing, and (vi) confirmation that all of the representations and warranties in this Secured Note are accurate as of the date of the Borrowing Notice and the requested Loan funding date. Each Borrowing Notice shall be signed by an authorized officer of the Borrower;

(h) With respect to the Second Loan, Lender shall use commercially reasonable efforts to timely obtain and shall have obtained, financing to fund (i) the maximum amount of the Second Loan and (ii) a debtor in possession financing facility to be made available to Borrower (subject to final documentation, an agreed budget, and court approval) on terms that are at least as favorable as the following: (1) the aggregate amount of such facility and availability thereunder shall be not less than $6,000,0000, (2) the interest rate shall not be more than fourteen percent (14%) per annum, (3) any origination fee and other fees and costs in aggregate shall not be more than two percent (2%) of the total facility amount financed, (4) the term of such facility shall not be less than thirty-six (36) months, and (5) the other terms of such facility shall be on terms no less favorable than set forth in this Secured Note (such financing, an “Acceptable Loan Facility”). If Lender determines in good faith, after using commercially reasonable efforts, that it cannot obtain an Acceptable Loan Facility, it will provide the Borrower with written notice of such determination within five (5) Business Days of receipt of a Borrowing Notice for the Second Loan (the “Second Loan Lender Notice”) which notice shall set forth the commercially reasonable efforts taken by Lender to obtain an Acceptable Loan Facility, the funding sources consulted by Lender to obtain an Acceptable Loan Facility (subject to any applicable non-disclosure agreements), and the reason(s) Lender has determined that it cannot obtain an Acceptable Loan Facility.

As used herein, “commercially reasonable efforts” shall exclude the provision, in connection with obtaining an Acceptable Loan Facility, of any personal or other guarantees by any principals of Lender or by other any Releasee (as defined below) or the pledging of any assets by any principals of Lender or by other any Releasee (other than Lender); and

(i) Prior to the funding of the Second Loan, the Director Lenders shall have delivered the Director Lender Releases to Lender.

22. Release. Effective as of the Borrowing Date of the First Loan, the Borrower, for itself and its affiliates and their respective directors, managers, shareholders, members, officers, employees, counsel, accountants, investors, financial advisors, agents, consultants and other advisors and successors and assigns (collectively, the “Releasing Persons”), does hereby and forever irrevocably release and discharge the Lender and each of its past, present and future affiliates and their respective directors, managers, shareholders, members, officers, employees, counsel, accountants, investors, financial advisors, agents, consultants and other advisors (each a “Releasee”), from any and all claims, actions, causes of action, proceedings, judgments, debts, rights, interests, obligations, liabilities and all other losses and damages of whatsoever kind or character, known or unknown, suspected to exist or not suspected to exist, anticipated or not anticipated, whether or not heretofore brought, whether in law or in equity, whether in contract or in tort or otherwise, that such Releasing Person now has, has ever had or may hereafter have against any Releasee, in each case, which arises out of or relates to events, circumstances or actions occurring, existing or taken prior to the date hereof in respect of this Secured Note or any of the transactions contemplated hereby (each, a “Released Claim”); provided, however, that the Released Claims shall not include a release of any of the Borrower’s rights, or any of Lender’s obligations, under this Secured Note. Each Releasing Person further covenants and agrees

(a) that it will not, and will cause its affiliates not to, take any action inconsistent with this Section (including commencing any action or proceeding in respect of, or directly or indirectly transferring to another person or entity, any Released Claim). This Section shall survive the Maturity Date, the payment in full of the Obligations, or conversion to Common Stock, and the termination of this Secured Note, is intended for the benefit of and may be enforced directly by each of the Released Persons and is binding on all successors and assigns of the Releasing Person. The Borrower represents and warrants that no portion of any Released Claim has been assigned or transferred to any other person or entity, either directly or by way of subrogation or operation of law. Furthermore, the Borrower also represents and warrants that it will not fund, support, or cooperate with any claims by third parties against the Releasees related to the Released Claims.

23. Confidentiality. Each party shall hold, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to cause its affiliates, and its and their respective Representatives (as defined below) to hold, in strict confidence from any person or entity (other than any such affiliate or Representative) the terms and conditions of this Secured Note and any facts or other information related to this Secured Note, unless (i) such party is required to disclose such information by applicable law, rule or regulation; (ii) such information is disclosed in an action or proceeding brought by a party hereto in pursuit of its rights or in the exercise of its remedies hereunder, or (iii) the party to whom disclosure of this Secured Note is made has executed a confidentiality agreement with Borrower. As used herein, “Representatives” means directors, managers, shareholders, members, officers, employees, counsel, accountants, lenders, investors, financial advisors, consultants, and other advisors, in each case with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Secured Note.

24. Fees and Expenses of Enforcement. In connection with an Event of Default, the Borrower agrees to pay and shall pay, on demand, in addition to unpaid principal and interest and/or interest at the default rate, all of the fees, costs, and expenses incurred by the Lender in attempting or effecting collection or enforcement hereunder, including, but not limited to, the reasonable fees and expenses of any attorneys or agents engaged by the Lender in connection therewith, whether or not suit or other legal action is instituted or taken.

25. Waivers. The Borrower hereby waives presentment, demand, notice, protest, and all other demands and notices in connection with the delivery, acceptance, performance, default, or enforcement of this Secured Note, and assents to any extension or postponement of the time of payment or any other indulgence, to any substitution, exchange or release of collateral, if any, and to the addition or release of any other party or person primarily or secondarily liable.

26. GOVERNING LAW. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER EACH IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY AGREE THAT THE OBLIGATIONS OF THE BORROWER AND THE RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE LENDER UNDER THIS SECURED NOTE, AND ANY CLAIM OR CONTROVERSY DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY BASED UPON OR ARISING OUT OF THIS SECURED NOTE OR THE TRANSACTIONS CONTEMPLATED HEREBY (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE), INCLUDING ALL MATTERS OF CONSTRUCTION, VALIDITY, AND PERFORMANCE, SHALL IN ALL RESPECTS BE GOVERNED BY AND INTERPRETED, CONSTRUED AND DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE INTERNAL LAWS OF THE STATE OF DELAWARE (WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISION THEREOF THAT WOULD REQUIRE THE APPLICATION OF THE LAWS OF ANY OTHER JURISDICTION).

27. Jurisdiction. The Borrower and the Lender hereby irrevocably and unconditionally submit to the jurisdiction of any state or federal court located in Delaware, in any action or proceeding arising out of or relating to this Secured Note. The Borrower and the Lender hereby irrevocably and unconditionally waive, to the fullest extent it may legally and effectively do so, (a) any objection that they may now or hereafter have to the laying of venue of any suit, action, or proceeding arising out of this Secured Note in any state or federal court located in Delaware, and (b) the defense of an inconvenient forum to the maintenance of such action or proceeding in any such court.

28. JURY TRIAL. THE BORROWER AND THE LENDER EACH IRREVOCABLY WAIVE ALL RIGHT TO TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING OR COUNTERCLAIM (WHETHER BASED ON CONTRACT, TORT OR OTHERWISE) ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THIS SECURED NOTE OR THE ACTIONS OF THE BORROWER OR THE LENDER IN THE NEGOTIATION, ADMINISTRATION, PERFORMANCE OR ENFORCEMENT THEREOF.

29. PREJUDGMENT REMEDIES. THE BORROWER ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE TRANSACTION OF WHICH THIS SECURED NOTE IS A PART IS A COMMERCIAL TRANSACTION, AND HEREBY VOLUNTARILY AND KNOWINGLY WAIVES ITS RIGHT TO NOTICE AND HEARING UNDER THE DELAWARE STATUTES, OR AS OTHERWISE ALLOWED BY LAW OR ANY STATE OR FEDERAL LAW WITH RESPECT TO ANY PREJUDGMENT REMEDY WHICH THE LENDER MAY DESIRE TO USE.

30. LIMITATION ON LIABILITY. TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE BORROWER HEREBY WAIVES ALL RIGHTS TO THE ASSERTION OR RECOVERY OF PUNITIVE OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES AGAINST THE LENDER IN CONNECTION WITH THIS SECURED NOTE OR ANY OTHER DOCUMENT OR INSTRUMENT EVIDENCING OR SECURING THIS SECURED NOTE. THE BORROWER SHALL HAVE NO CLAIMS FOR ANY ACTS OR OMISSIONS OF THE LENDER OTHER THAN THOSE CONSTITUTING GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR INTENTIONALLY WRONGFUL CONDUCT.

31. Entire Agreement. This Secured Note, together with all other instruments, agreements, and certificates executed by the parties in connection therewith or with reference thereto, embody the entire understanding and agreement between the parties hereto and thereto with respect to the subject matter hereof and thereof and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, and inducements, whether express or implied, oral or written. This Secured Note may not be contradicted by evidence of prior, contemporaneous, or subsequent oral agreements of the parties. There are no oral agreements between the parties. Each of the exhibits and schedules attached hereto are incorporated into this Secured Note and by this reference made a part hereof.

32. Amendments. No modification, amendment, or other revision of the provisions of this Secured Note shall be binding unless in writing and signed by the Lender and Borrower. No omission or delay by the Lender in exercising or continuing any right, remedy, or power under this Secured Note shall impair the exercise or continuation of any such right, remedy, or power or be construed to be a waiver of any default or Event of Default to be an acquiescence therein.

33. Severability. In the event that any one or more of the provisions of this Secured Note are deemed to be invalid, illegal, or otherwise unenforceable in any respect, (i) the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any manner be affected or impaired thereby and (ii) the parties hereto shall endeavor in good-faith negotiations to replace any prohibited or unenforceable provisions with valid and enforceable provisions, the economic effect of which comes as close as possible to that of the prohibited or unenforceable provisions.

34. Representation by Counsel; Drafting. The Borrower has been provided the opportunity to be represented by counsel of its choice in connection with this Secured Note. The Borrower has executed this Secured Note freely and without coercion or duress. This Secured Note shall be deemed to have been drafted by both parties hereto and no presumptions shall be made against either party based on the actual drafting of this Secured Note or any provision of this Secured Note.

35. Binding Nature of Obligations; Assignment.

This Secured Note may be transferred or assigned by the Lender, in whole or in part, in its sole discretion. The Borrower may not assign this Secured Note or delegate any of its obligations hereunder without the prior written consent of Lender, which consent may be withheld or conditioned in the sole discretion of Lender, and any assignment made in violation of this provision is void.

36. Survival. Sections l5-18, 20(h), and 21-34 shall survive the termination or repayment in full of this Secured Note.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, this Secured Note has been executed and delivered by its duly authorized representative as of the date first written above.
