This financing provides EigenQ with critical bridge capital ahead of the SVAQ merger, but the terms are aggressive — 10% OID, full-asset security, and a $5.00 floor on conversion price reset. The extension of the Outside Date to June 2027 signals timeline slippage. Monitor the S-4 effectiveness timeline and shareholder vote; the minimum cash covenant ($7.5M/$10M) creates a hard constraint on cash burn.

Executive Summary
SVAQ and EigenQ entered into a $44.45M senior secured convertible note financing with an Ayrton Capital affiliate, structured as two $22.225M closings. The notes carry a 10% OID, 8% cash/10% PIK interest, are convertible at $12.00/share (subject to reset and anti-dilution), and are secured by all assets of EigenQ. The financing is contingent on and immediately precedes the closing of the previously announced SVAQ-EigenQ business combination, with notes and warrants to be exchanged for PubCo equivalents at closing. The filing also includes a participation right for the lead buyer in future equity offerings, a lock-up on sponsor shares, and a minimum cash covenant.
