Securities Purchase Agreements.
On October 21, 2024, Jet. AI Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with several institutional investors for the sale by the Company of an aggregate of 15,625,000 shares (the “Shares”) of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share at a per share price $0.096. The closing of the offering occurred on October 21, 2024 (the “Closing Date”). The gross proceeds to the Company from the offering was approximately $1.5 million, before deducting the placement agent’s fees and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company.
Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed not to issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of, any shares of common stock or any securities convertible into or exercisable or exchangeable for shares of common stock or file any registration statement or prospectus, or any amendment or supplement thereto for five trading days after the Closing Date, subject to certain exceptions.
The offering of the Shares was made pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-281578) , which was originally filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission on August 15, 2024, and declared effective on September 9, 2024. The Company filed a prospectus supplement dated October 21, 2024 with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission in connection with the offer and sale of the Shares on October 21, 2024 (“Prospectus Supplement”).
As previously disclosed, our directors and officers entered into lock-up agreements on October 10, 2024, in connection with an offering that closed on October 11, 2024. Under these agreements, these individuals agreed, subject to specified exceptions, not to sell or transfer any shares of common stock or securities convertible into, or exchangeable or exercisable for, our common stock during a period ending ninety (90) days after that offering. Specifically, these individuals agreed, in part, not to offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of, or otherwise dispose of transfer any shares of common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable into shares of our common stock beneficially owned by them.
The form of the Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The foregoing summary of the terms of this document is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the Purchase Agreement, which is incorporated herein by reference.
Placement Agency Agreement
On October 21, 2024, the Company entered into a placement agency agreement with Maxim Group LLC (the “Placement Agent”) (the “Placement Agency Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to pay the Placement Agent an aggregate fee equal to 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds received by the Company from the sale of the Shares in the offering. The Company also agreed to reimburse the Placement Agent for certain expenses in an amount up to $25,000.
Pursuant to the terms of the Placement Agency Agreement, for a period until January 31, 2025 (the “Right of First Refusal Period”), the Company granted the Placement Agent the right of first refusal to act as sole managing underwriter and sole book runner, sole placement agent, or sole sales agent, for any and all future public or private equity, equity-linked, or debt (excluding commercial bank debt) offerings of the Company or any successor to or any subsidiary of the Company for which the Company retains the service of an underwriter, agent, advisor, finder, or other person or entity in connection with such offering during the Right of First Refusal Period. The Company agreed not to offer to retain any entity or person in connection with any such offering on terms more favorable than terms on which the Company offers to retain the placement agent.

In addition, such representations, warranties and covenants: (1) are intended as a way of allocating the risk between the parties to such agreements and not as statements of fact, and (2) may apply standards of materiality in a way that is different from what may be viewed as material by stockholders of, or other investors in, the Company.
