Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Merger Agreement
On October 26, 2023, Feutune Light Acquisition Corporation (“FLFV”, or “PubCo” upon and following the Merger) entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (as the same may be amended, restated or supplemented, the “Merger Agreement”) with Thunder Power Holdings Limited, a British Virgin Islands company (the “Company”) and Feutune Light Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of FLFV (“Merger Sub”). Capitalized terms used and not otherwise defined herein have the definitions assigned to such terms in the Merger Agreement.
The Company is a technology innovator and manufacturer of premium electric vehicles (“EVs”). The Company is dedicated to creating electric vehicles that deliver a premium driving experience combined with a high degree of personalization and has developed and is planning to manufacture a family of EVs suited to various stages of life and driving environments.
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, the Company will be merged with and into Merger Sub (the “Merger”), with the Merger Sub surviving the Merger as a direct wholly owned subsidiary of PubCo.
Merger Consideration
At the effective time of the Merger (the “Effective Time”), by virtue of the Merger and without any action on the part of FLFV, Merger Sub, the Company or the shareholders of the Company immediately prior to the Effective Time (collectively, the “Company Shareholders”), each Company Shareholder’s ordinary shares of the Company (“Company Ordinary Shares”) issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time (excluding dissenting shares and shares held by the Company or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries as of immediately prior to the Effective Time) will be canceled and automatically converted into (i) the right to receive, without interest, the applicable portion of the Closing Merger Consideration Shares (as defined herein) as set forth in the Closing Consideration Spreadsheet and (ii) the contingent right to receive the applicable portion of the Earnout Shares (as defined herein), if, as and when payable in accordance with the earnout provisions described below. For avoidance of any doubt, each Company Shareholder will cease to have any rights with respect to such Company Shareholder’s Company Ordinary Shares, except the right to receive the Closing Per Share Merger Consideration and the Earnout Shares. “Closing Merger Consideration Shares” means 40,000,000 shares of common stock of PubCo, which are equal or equivalent in value to the sum of $400,000,000 divided by $10.00 per share. “Earnout Shares” means 20,000,000 shares of common stock of PubCo, which are equal or equivalent in value to the sum of $200,000,000 divided by $10.00 per share, subject to the vesting schedule set forth in the Merger Agreement.
The Merger and each of the other transactions contemplated by the Merger Agreement or any of the other relevant transactional documents are collectively referred to as “Transactions.”
Earnout Escrow
Pursuant to the Merger Agreement, at the Effective Time, an aggregate of 20,000,000 shares of common stock of PubCo issued to the Company Shareholders (the “Earnout Shares”) will be deposited with an escrow agent in a segregated escrow account (the “Earnout Escrow Account”) pursuant to an escrow agreement effective as of the Effective Time and will be released from the Earnout Escrow Account and delivered to the Company Shareholders after the Closing as follows:
(a) | an aggregate of 5,000,000 Earnout Shares will be vested, if and only if, on the occurrence that the amount of sales/revenues of PubCo for any of the fiscal years (such fiscal year is referred as “Tranche 1 Fiscal Year”) ending from December 31, 2023 to December 31, 2025 is no less than US$42,200,000 as evidenced by the audited financial statements of PubCo prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP for the Tranche 1 Fiscal Year that is contained in an annual report on Form 10-K filed by PubCo with the SEC. |

Item 2.03 Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant
On October 21, 2023, an aggregate of $100,000 (the “October Monthly Extension Payment”) was deposited into the trust account of FLFV for FLFV’s public stockholders, which enabled FLFV to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from October 21, 2023 to November 21, 2023 (the “October Extension”). The October Extension is the fifth of the up to nine monthly extensions permitted under FLFV’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation currently in effect.
In connection with the October Monthly Extension Payment and pursuant to the Merger Agreement, on October 26, 2023, FLFV issued an unsecured promissory note of $100,000 (the “Note”) to the Company to evidence the payment made for the October Monthly Extension Payment.
The Note bears no interest and is payable in full upon the earlier to occur of (i) the consummation of FLFV’s business combination, or (ii) the date of expiry of the term of FLFV (the “Maturity Date”). Any of the following will constitute an event of default under the Note: (i) a failure to pay the principal within five (5) business days of the Maturity Date; (ii) the commencement of a voluntary or involuntary bankruptcy action, (iii) the breach of any of FLFV’s obligations under the Note; (iv) any cross defaults; (v) an enforcement proceeding against FLFV; or (vi) it is or becomes unlawful for FLFV to perform any of its obligations under the Note, or any obligations of FLFV under the Note are not or cease to be legal, valid, binding or enforceable. Upon the occurrence of an event of default specified in (i) or (iv) above, the Company may, by written notice to FLFV, declare the Note to be due immediately and payable, whereupon the outstanding principal balance of the Note, and all other amounts payable under the Note, will become immediately due and payable without presentment, demand, protest or other notice of any kind. Upon the occurrence of an event of default specified in (ii), (iii), (v), (vi) or (vii) above, the outstanding principal balance of the Note, and all other sums payable under the Note, will automatically and immediately become due and payable, in all cases without any action on the part of the Company.
The Company has the right, but not the obligation, to convert the Note, in whole or in part, respectively, into private units (the “Units”) of FLFV, that are identical to the public units of FLFV, subject to certain exceptions, as described in FLFV’s final prospectus dated June 17, 2022 filed with the SEC and related to FLFV’s initial public offering (the “Final Prospectus”), by providing FLFV with written notice of the intention to convert at least two (2) business days prior to the closing of the business combination. The number of Units to be received by the Company in connection with such conversion will be an amount determined by dividing (x) the sum of the outstanding principal amount payable to the Company by (y) $10.00.
In the event that the Transactions are being negotiated in good faith and show a reasonable chance of being consummated, the Company, in its sole discretion, may agree on the same or different terms and conditions to further extend the monthly extension payments to FLFV, thereby incurring additional promissory notes from FLFV to the Company. So long as there is an outstanding principal balance on the Note or any additional promissory note from FLFV to the Company, FLFV and the Company must mutually agree to extend the period of time that FLFV has to consummate its initial business combination past March 21, 2024.
The issuance of the Note was made pursuant to the exemption from registration contained in Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).
A copy of the Note is filed with this Report as Exhibit 10.4 and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing description of the Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the terms and conditions of the Note.
