Notes payable to the Sellers

As consideration for the Business Combination, on November 25, 2019, the Company issued unsecured convertible promissory notes to each of Esse Effe and Maya in the amount of $6.0 million and $1.5 million, respectively, (the “Convertible Notes”) and also issued other unsecured promissory notes to each of Esse Effe and Maya in the identical respective amounts (the “Non-convertible Notes”).

Convertible Notes

As of June 30, 2020, the amount outstanding for Convertible Notes was $7.5 million and accrued interest on Convertible Notes was $131,000.

Interest on the Convertible Notes will accrue at a fixed interest rate equal to the one-year US dollar LIBOR interest rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the Business Combination Date, plus a margin of one percent (1%) per annum. Interest will be due and payable annually on each of (1) the date which is the twelve-month anniversary of the Business Combination Date and (2) on the date which is the twenty-four-month anniversary of the Business Combination Date. All interest shall be computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

Fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding principal balance of these Notes will be due and payable on the fifteen-month anniversary of the Business Combination Date. The remaining outstanding principal balance of these Convertible Notes plus all accrued and unpaid interest and fees due under these Notes will be due and payable in full on the twenty-four-month anniversary of the Business Combination Date.

In the event that the Company receives, at any time while principal on these Convertible Notes remains outstanding, cash proceeds of an equity financing (the “Financing”) in an amount not less than $50.0 million (the “Notes Financing Proceeds”), fifty percent (50%) of the outstanding principal balance of these Notes will be due and payable no later than ten business days after the Company receives such Notes Financing Proceeds. In the event of a Financing where at any time the Company receives cash proceeds of such Financing in an amount not less than $75.0 million (the “Payoff Financing Proceeds”), one hundred percent (100%) of the remaining outstanding principal balance of these Convertible Notes, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and fees due under the Notes will be due and payable no later than ten business days after the Company receives such Payoff Financing Proceeds. The date which is the earlier of (a) the twenty-four-month anniversary of the Business Combination Date, or (b) the date payment is received from Payoff Financing Proceeds, is the “Maturity Date”.

In the event that these Convertible Notes are not paid in full on or before the applicable Maturity Date, then at any time after the sixtieth business day after the Maturity Date, assuming payment in full has not been made prior to such date, the outstanding principal amount of these Notes, together with all accrued but unpaid interest on these Convertible Notes, may be converted into shares of Company common stock, in part or in whole, at the option of the holder of these Convertible Notes by providing written notice at least three business days prior to the date of conversion. A conversion of any portion of these Convertible Note into shares of Company common stock will be effected at a conversion price equal to the Current Market Price as of the date of such conversion (the “Conversion Price”). The term “Current Market Price” means, generally, the average VWAP for the twenty consecutive trading days ending on the date that is five trading days prior to the date of conversion. The term “VWAP” means, for any trading day, the volume weighted average trading price of the Company’s common stock for such trading day on the NYSE (or if the Company’s common stock is no longer traded on the NYSE, on such other exchange as the Company’s common stock is then traded).

Non-convertible Notes

As of June 30, 2020, the amount outstanding for the Non-convertible Note held by Esse Effe was $6.0 million and accrued interest on the Non-convertible Note was $105,000.

The Non-convertible Notes accrued interest at a fixed interest rate equal to LIBOR, which interest rate was one and ninety-one hundredths percent (1.91%), plus a margin of one percent (1%) per annum. As used herein, “LIBOR” means the one-year US Dollar LIBOR interest rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the Business Combination Date. All interest was computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

Under the terms of the Non-convertible Notes, the outstanding principal balance of the Non-convertible Notes, plus all accrued and unpaid interest and fees due under these notes, became due and payable, upon the receipt by the Company, in the equity financing event, namely the Offering mentioned above, of cash proceeds in an amount not less than $11.5 million (the “Financing Proceeds”), no later than ten (10) business days after the Company receives the Financing Proceeds. The principal amount of $1.5 million plus accrued interest of $26,000 for the Non-convertible Note held by Maya was paid in full by the Company on June 30, 2020, and no amount remains outstanding for such note at quarter end. The principal amount of $6.0 million plus accrued interest of $105,000 for the Non-convertible Note held by Esse Effe was paid in full on July 2, 2020. See Note 19 – Subsequent Events – for further details.

Notes payable - Other

Prior to the closing of the Business Combination, the Company had issued to several of its stockholders or their affiliates various promissory notes that were due to be paid in full upon the closing of the Business Combination (such notes referred to collectively as either the “Extension Notes” or the “Working Capital Notes”). In conjunction with the completion of the Business Combination, the Company and each of GigAcquisitions, LLC (the “Sponsor”) and an affiliate of the Sponsor, GigFounders, LLC, agreed to amend and restate the Extension Notes and Working Capital Notes held by them to provide that in lieu of repaying such promissory notes in full upon the closing of the Business Combination, the outstanding principal balance of such amended and restated notes (the “Amended Extension Notes” and the “Amended Working Capital Notes”), plus all accrued and unpaid interest (as described below) and fees due under the Amended Extension Notes and Amended Working Capital Notes, shall, upon the receipt by the Company, whether in a debt or equity financing event by the Company (which may include the receipt of cash from third parties with which the Company has entered into forward share purchase agreements), of cash proceeds in an amount not less than $11.5 million (the “Financing Proceeds”), be due and payable no later than ten business days after the Company receives the Financing Proceeds. On March 31, 2020, all of the other holders of Extension Notes and Working Capital Notes similarly agreed to amend and restate these notes to exchange them into Amended Extension Notes and Amended Working Capital Notes after the closing of the Business Combination.

Interest on the Amended Extension Notes and Amended Working Capital Notes accrued at a fixed interest rate equal to the one-year U.S. dollar LIBOR interest rate published in The Wall Street Journal on the closing of the Business Combination, which is one and ninety-one hundredths percent (1.91%), plus a margin of one percent (1%) per annum. All interest was computed on the basis of a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed.

All principal and accrued interest for the Amended Extension Notes and Amended Working Capital Notes was paid in full by the Company on June 30, 2020, and no amount remains outstanding for such notes.

On March 6, 2020, the Company issued to Northland, a promissory note for the principal amount of $400,000 as a partial settlement of the amounts owned to Northland for financial advisory services provided by Northland to Kaleyra S.p.A. in connection with the previously consummated Business Combination. This note bears interest at the rate of 8.0% per annum (subject to adjustment as described below) compounded annually commencing on March 1, 2020 and continues until the note is fully paid. The Northland note is payable in a single installment at maturity on December 31, 2020. In the event that the Northland note is prepaid in full prior to April 30, 2020, there is no interest due on the note, and if prepaid in full on or after April 30, 2020 and prior to December 31, 2020, the interest thereon is recalculated at the time of prepayment at the rate of 4% per annum. All principal and accrued interest for the Northland note was paid in full by the Company on June 30, 2020, and no amount remains outstanding for such note.

On April 16, 2020, the Company entered into a Settlement Agreement and Release (the “Settlement Agreement”) with its Business Combination financial advisory service firms, Cowen and Company, LLC (“Cowen”) and Chardan Capital Markets, LLC, (“Chardan” and collectively the “Service Firms”), pursuant to which it agreed to pay an affiliate of Cowen, Cowen Investments II LLC (“Cowen Investments”), and Chardan, in full satisfaction of all amounts owed to the Service Firms as of December 31, 2019, $5.4 million in the aggregate, as follows: (i) $2.7 million in the aggregate in common stock of the Company (the “Settlement Shares”) to be issued the business day prior to the filing of a resale registration statement for such Settlement Shares (the “Resale Registration Statement”), (ii) convertible notes totaling $2.7 million in the aggregate with a maturity date three years after issuance and bearing interest at five percent (5%) per annum (but with lower interest rates if the notes are repaid earlier than one year or two years after issuance) and with interest paid in arrears to the payee on March 15, June 15, September 15 and December 15 of each year, with such convertible notes to also be issued the business day prior to the filing of the Resale Registration Statement and (iii) in the event that the Beneficial Ownership Limitation (as defined below) would otherwise be exceeded upon delivery of the Settlement Shares above, a warrant agreement also to be entered into with and issued to the Services Firms the business day prior to the filing of the Resale Registration Statement, whereby the amount of common stock of the Company by which the Beneficial Ownership Limitation would otherwise have been exceeded upon delivery of the Settlement Shares will be substituted for by warrants with an exercise price of $0.01 per share issued pursuant to a Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Agreement”) and the common stock underlying the Warrant Agreement (the “Warrant Shares”). The Beneficial Ownership Limitation shall initially be 4.99% of the number of shares of the common stock outstanding of the Company immediately after giving effect to the issuance of these shares of common stock. The number of Settlement Shares was calculated using as the price per Settlement Share an amount equal to a fifteen percent (15%) discount to the ten-day (10-day) trailing dollar volume-weighted average price for the common stock of the Company on the NYSE American LLC stock exchange (the “VWAP”) on the business day immediately prior to the date on which Kaleyra files the Resale Registration Statement. In addition, the price per share for determining the number of shares of common stock of the Company to be issued upon the conversion of the convertible notes shall be a five percent (5%) premium to the ten-day (10-day) trailing VWAP as of the date immediately prior to the issuance date of the convertible notes, rounded down to the nearest whole number.

On May 1, 2020, in connection with the Settlement Agreement, the Company issued: (i) an aggregate of 440,595 Settlement Shares to Cowen Investments and Chardan, consisting of 374,506 Settlement Shares issued to Cowen Investments, and 66,089 Settlement Shares issued to Chardan, which resulted in $0.2 million loss on settlement on the issuance date of May 1, 2020; and (ii) convertible promissory notes in the aggregate principal amount of $2.7 million to Cowen Investments and Chardan, consisting of a

convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $2.3 million issued to Cowen Investments (the “Cowen Note”) and a convertible promissory note in the principal amount of $405,000 issued to Chardan (the “Chardan Note”). The unpaid principal of the Cowen Note is convertible at the option of Cowen Investments into 303,171 shares of common stock of the Company, if there has been no principal reduction, and the unpaid principal of the Chardan Note is convertible at the option of Chardan into 53,501 shares of common stock of the Company, if there has been no principal reduction. As the Beneficial Ownership Limitation was not triggered by the issuance of the Settlement Shares, no Warrant Agreement was necessary and no warrants were issued.

As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding amount of the Cowen Note was $2.3 million and accrued interest was $5,000. As of June 30, 2020, the outstanding amount of the Chardan Note was $405,000 and accrued interest was $3,000.
