Parties Agree to Cancel Previously Issued Shares, Restrict Sales, Provide for Redemption Rights, and Restore Capacity Under $400 Million Share Subscription Facility

LOS ANGELES, August 09, 2024–Surf Air Mobility Inc. (NYSE:SRFM) (the “Company”), a leading regional air mobility platform, today announced that it closed the previously announced issuance and sale to GEM of a mandatory convertible security (the “Security”). The Security has a par amount of $35.2 million and is convertible into a maximum of 8,000,000 shares of the Company’s common stock.

The Company, in consultation with its board of directors, agreed to the sale of the Security to GEM with objectives of:

1. Reducing near-term overhang: Cancels a significant portion of GEM’s currently issued and freely tradable shares in the Company.
2. Imposing a volume restriction: On any trading day, limits sales of shares beneficially owned by GEM and certain related entities to 10% of the daily volume of the Company’s common stock on the immediately preceding trading day.
3. Flexibility to Redeem: Gives the Company the ability to redeem all or part of the Security in cash at 115% of the then outstanding par amount at any time, thereby potentially avoiding dilution.

GEM has also agreed to refresh the Company’s ability to take both advance drawdowns (up to $100 million) and regular way drawdowns (up to $300 million) back to full capacity, thereby allowing the Company to access up to $400 million as originally contemplated under its share subscription facility with GEM.
