Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis
ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
You should read the following discussion of our financial condition and results of operations in conjunction with the condensed consolidated financial statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and with Legacy Inpixon's audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, as filed with the SEC. In addition to our historical condensed consolidated financial information, the following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect our plans, estimates, and beliefs. Our actual results could differ materially from those discussed in the forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to these differences include those discussed below and elsewhere in this Form 10-Q, particularly in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors.”
Overview of Our Business
Following the closing of the XTI Merger (refer to Note 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements), we are primarily an aircraft development company. We also provide real-time location systems (“RTLS”) for the industrial sector, which was our focus prior to the closing of the XTI Merger. Headquartered in Englewood, Colorado, XTI Aerospace is developing a vertical takeoff and landing ("VTOL") aircraft that is designed to take off and land like a helicopter and cruise like a fixed-wing business aircraft. We believe our initial configuration, the TriFan 600, will be one of the first civilian fixed-wing VTOL aircraft that offers the speed and comfort of a business aircraft and the range and versatility of VTOL for a wide range of customer applications, including private aviation for business and high net worth individuals, emergency medical services, and commuter and regional air travel. Since 2013, we have been engaged primarily in developing the design and engineering concepts for the TriFan 600, building and testing a two-thirds scale unmanned version of the TriFan 600, generating pre-orders for the TriFan 600, and seeking funds from investors to enable the Company to build full-scale piloted prototypes of the TriFan 600, and to eventually engage in commercial production and sale of TriFan 600 aircraft.
Our RTLS solution leverages cutting-edge technologies such as IoT, AI, and big data analytics to provide real-time tracking and monitoring of assets, machines, and people within industrial environments. With our RTLS, businesses can achieve improved operational efficiency, enhanced safety and reduced costs. By having real-time visibility into operations, industrial organizations can make informed, data-driven decisions, minimize downtime, and ensure compliance with industry regulations.
Our full-stack Industrial IoT solution provides end-to-end visibility and control over a wide range of assets and devices. It is designed to help organizations optimize their operations and gain a competitive edge in today's data-driven world. The turn-key platform integrates a range of technologies, including RTLS, sensor networks, edge computing, and big data analytics, to provide a comprehensive view of an organization's operations. We help organizations track the location and status of assets in real-time, identify inefficiencies, and make decisions that drive business growth. Our IoT stack covers all the technology layers, from the edge devices to the cloud. It includes hardware components such as sensors and gateways, a robust software platforms for data management and analysis, and a user-friendly dashboard for real-time monitoring and control. Our solutions also offer robust security features, to help ensure the protection of sensitive data. Additionally, our RTLS provides scalability and flexibility, allowing organizations to easily integrate it with their existing systems and add new capabilities as their needs evolve.
We report financial results for two segments: Commercial Aviation and Industrial IoT. For Industrial IoT we generate revenue from sales of hardware, software licenses and professional services. For Commercial Aviation, the segment is pre-revenue and is currently developing the TriFan 600 aircraft.
Key Factors Affecting Operating Results
We believe that the growth of our business and our future success are dependent upon many factors, including our ability to retain and develop engineering internal and third-party resources, secure strategic partnerships with suppliers, expand the number of customer purchase orders, locate a facility for further aircraft development and testing, expand on that facility or locate to a new facility for commercial production, build-out production assembly lines in a timely manner, develop ancillary service offerings related to the TriFan 600 such as flight training, insurance programs and maintenance products, and secure the needed financing to achieve Federal Aviation Administration ("FAA") certification.
While each of these areas presents significant opportunities for us, they also pose material challenges and risks that we must successfully address in order to achieve FAA certification of the TriFan 600 and further reach our current aircraft delivery forecasts.

Corporate Strategy Update
Commercial Aviation
We intend to continue our development of the TriFan 600 by engaging key supply partners, establishing vendors of key components of the full-scale Test Aircraft #1, commissioning and completing trade studies, and completing the development design review of the TriFan 600. We will need additional capital to complete our development of the series of Test Aircraft and beyond and are pursuing multiple alternatives for such funding.
We will continue to develop an internal and external sales and marketing capability to increase awareness of the aircraft and position the Company to continue taking customer orders and deposits. We believe that increasing awareness of the aircraft and demonstrating customer demand through sales orders will enhance the Company’s ability to continue raising capital in the future.
We do not believe we will be able to generate revenues in this commercial aviation segment without successfully completing the certification of the proposed TriFan 600 aircraft.
Industrial IoT
Since 2019 and post acquisition, Legacy Inpixon's operations have been focused on building and developing our Indoor IntelligenceTM platform to be able to offer a comprehensive range of solutions that allow for the collection of data within workplace environments to delivering insights from that data for, people, places and things. We believe we have positioned the Industrial IoT business as a market leader with a comprehensive suite of products and solutions allowing us to help organizations enhance the visitor and employee experience with actionable indoor intelligence making them smarter, safer and more secure. We operate and compete in an industry that is characterized by rapid technological innovation, changing customer needs, evolving industry standards and frequent introductions of new products, product enhancements, services and distribution methods. Our success will depend on our ability to develop expertise with these new products, product enhancements, services and distribution methods and to implement solutions that anticipate and respond to rapid changes in technology, the industry, and customer needs.
Research and Development
Commercial Aviation
We plan to seek FAA certification of the TriFan 600 as a fixed-wing, VTOL aircraft. Initial concept and engineering analysis for the TriFan 600 was completed in July 2015. XTI Aircraft Company or "Legacy XTI" built a 65% scale prototype and in May 2019 began initial hover tests. The prototype was successfully hover-tested multiple times. Subsequent to raising private funding during 2021, Legacy XTI hired a number of engineers (employees and consultants) to establish its core engineering organization. Additionally, Legacy XTI retained consulting firms to provide specialized engineering technical knowledge to complement XTI’s team.
Legacy XTI completed its preliminary design review (“PDR”) in 2022, which set the stage for the next step of design development. Legacy XTI updated the exterior design of the TriFan 600, including the wing fans location and the location of the horizontal tail, all of which had a positive impact on the performance and efficiency of the aircraft. Design and engineering for other systems, including the propulsion system, landing gear, cockpit visibility, cabin sizing and structural integrity were also advanced during 2022 and 2023.
The current development design review phase (“DDR”) of the program includes further interactions with suppliers to develop and mature major structures and systems of the aircraft. With input from industry-respected suppliers, we believe all systems of the TriFan 600 can be incorporated into the airframe to deliver a fully-integrated solution. The fulfillment of this phase is expected to pave the way for approving engineering designs used to build the aircraft. The DDR phase also includes ongoing communication with the FAA to discuss and maintain awareness of our compliance with federal regulations.
The next target milestones include critical design review (“CDR”) and building and preliminary testing of a full-scale flight test aircraft, along with building additional full-scale flight test aircraft, are fully dependent on raising additional financing.

Industrial IoT
Our management believes that we must continue to dedicate a significant amount of resources to research and development efforts to maintain a competitive position. Our RTLS products intersect many emerging fields including metaverse, augmented reality, occupancy planning, industry 4.0, smart cities, and more, and we continue to innovate and patent new methods to solve problems for our customers.
Competition
Commercial Aviation
The private jet and private business aircraft markets are highly competitive and we face a significant number of original equipment manufacturer competitors, most of which are larger, better known and have better financial resources than us. When the TriFan 600 goes into production, we believe it will compete with other aircraft manufacturers by providing our customers with what we believe is a unique “crossover” aircraft with distinct and largely unique performance capabilities at a competitive purchase price. We believe the TriFan 600 will be one of a small number of aircraft that offers the speed, range and comfort of a business aircraft with the versatility of VTOL. As we expect that the TriFan 600 will be capable of flying greater distances and on average at twice the speed and three times the range of competing helicopters, we expect the TriFan 600 to offer lower direct operating costs (cost per flight hour) and be able to fly almost twice as many missions, thus generating additional cost savings and revenue for airlines and aircraft operators when compared with helicopters .
Industrial IoT
In addition, our Industrial IoT business is characterized by innovation and rapid change. Our RTLS Indoor Intelligence products compete with companies such as Aruba, Cisco, Juniper Networks/Mist Systems, Ubisense, Sewio, Kinexon, Zebra Technologies and other mostly vertical focused RTLS companies. Some competitors determine positioning primarily using BLE or Wi-Fi and, therefore, we believe they cannot achieve the same accuracy that we do and so cannot meet some customers' needs. Many RTLS competitors are focused on one technology and/or vertical and, at this time, we believe none of them have as complete an offering of tags, anchors, positioning, engine, software, integrations and analytics.
We believe we offer a unique and differentiated approach to the market with our Industrial IoT business which is:
• Comprehensive. We offer full-stack RTLS solutions which seamlessly integrates tracking tags, anchors, sensors, positioning engine, software, and connections to third-party systems. We integrate a myriad of indoor data inputs and outputs. With a single platform we can support a multitude of use cases across numerous industries in both the private and public sector.
• Scalable. Our solutions are built to support customers’ expanding needs and use cases. Unlike many other competitive point-solutions, we can offer expansion paths and support for a wide variety of location-based use cases at large, multi-size, global enterprises. Our multi-layered depiction of indoor data allows users to see the information most relevant to their role, in the optimal format for them (e.g., charts, tables, maps, etc.).
• Technology-agnostic and open. We embrace an ecosystem of hardware, software, integration and distribution partners welcoming integration and synchronization with third party data and systems in combination with our platform. Our open architecture is designed to enable the integration of disparate technologies, preserve investment and avoid obsolescence. APIs and MQTT make it possible to move data in and out of our platform to enable a plethora of opportunities and benefits.
Recent Events
The Company completed its merger with XTI Aircraft Company on March 12, 2024, which was structured as a reverse triangular merger. Refer to Note 5 of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included elsewhere in the Form 10-Q for further discussion of the XTI Merger.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). In connection with the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, we are required to make assumptions and estimates about future events, and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenue, expenses and the related disclosures. We base our assumptions, estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that management believes to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On a regular basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our consolidated financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.
Our significant accounting policies are discussed in Note 3 of the condensed consolidated financial statements. We believe that the following accounting estimates are the most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial results, and they require our most difficult, subjective or complex judgments, resulting from the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. There have been no changes to estimates during the periods presented in the filing. Historically changes in management estimates have not been material.
There have been no significant changes to Legacy Inpixon's critical accounting policies and estimates from the information provided in Item 7, "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, except for the addition of Legacy XTI's critical accounting policies and estimates which have been incorporated and disclosed in Note 3 of the condensed consolidated financials statements included elsewhere in this 10Q filing.
Components of Results of Operations
Revenue
Commercial Aviation
We are still working to design, develop, certify, and bring up manufacturing of our TriFan 600 aircraft and thus have not generated revenue from this segment. We do not expect to begin generating significant revenues until we are able to complete the design, development, certification, and manufacturing our aircraft.
Industrial IoT
Our RTLS products are primarily sold on a license and SaaS mode, which we call "location as a service" or "LaaS." In our licensing model, we also typically charge an annual maintenance fee. The LaaS model is typically for a 3-5 year contract and includes license to use, maintenance and hardware upgrades. The LaaS model generates a recurring revenue stream.
Operating Expenses
Research and Development
Research and development activities represent a significant part of our business. Our research and development efforts focus on the design and development of (i) our indoor intelligence products, and (ii) our TriFan 600 aircraft, including certain of the systems that will be used in it. As part of the aircraft development activities, we continue to work closely with the FAA towards our goal of achieving certification of our aircraft on an efficient timeline.
Research and development expenses consist primarily of costs incurred in connection with the research and development of the TriFan 600 aircraft. These expenses include:
• employee-related expenses, including salaries and benefits for personnel engaged in research and development functions;
• expenses incurred in connection with XTI's research and development activities, including under agreements with third parties such as consultants and contractors; and
45
Table of Contents
• software and technology-related expenses to support computer-aided design of the aircraft, flight simulations, and other technology needs of our engineers.
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred. We expect our research and development expenses to increase significantly as we increase staffing to support aircraft engineering and software development, build aircraft prototypes and continue to explore and develop technologies.
We cannot determine with certainty the timing, duration or the costs necessary to complete the design, development, certification, and manufacturing our TriFan 600 aircraft due to the inherently unpredictable nature of our research and development activities. Development timelines, the probability of success, and development costs may differ materially from expectations.
Selling and Marketing Expenses
Selling and marketing costs include activities such as aircraft reservation procurement, public relations and business opportunity advancement. These functions mainly generate expenses relating to travel, trade show fees and costs, salaries and benefits. Selling and marketing expenses are expensed as incurred.
General and Administrative Expenses
General and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for personnel in executive, finance, corporate and business development, and administrative functions. General and administrative expenses also include legal fees relating to patent and corporate matters, including non-capitalizable transaction costs; professional fees for accounting, auditing, tax and administrative consulting services; insurance costs, facility related expenses including maintenance and allocated expenses for rent and other operating costs.
We anticipate that general and administrative expenses will increase substantially in the future as we increase our headcount to support continued research and development and commercialization of the TriFan 600
Other Income (Expense)
Interest expense, net consists primarily of (i) interest relating to convertible and promissory notes payable, (ii) amortization of debt discounts relating to warrants and stock options issued in conjunction with convertible notes, and (iii) interest income on notes receivable.
Inducement loss on debt conversions includes primarily the inducement charges incurred by Legacy XTI when it entered into voluntary note conversion letter agreements with several note holders. Per the letter agreements, an aggregate principal and accrued interest balance was converted at a reduced conversion price into common shares of Legacy XTI immediately prior to the XTI Merger closing time. The Company accounted for these conversions as an inducement and, as such, recognized a loss related to the fair value of the additional shares issued compared to the original terms of the convertible note.
Change in fair value of convertible notes represent the remeasurement of certain Legacy XTI convertible notes to fair value. These notes were converted to equity ahead of the Merger closing time.
Other income (expense), net consists of miscellaneous income and expense items.

Table of Contents
Customer Deposits
As of March 31, 2024, we received conditional pre-orders under a combination of non-binding aircraft purchase agreements, reservation deposit agreements, options and letters of intent for aircraft which generated approximately $1.4 million of cash from customer deposits. These funds from customer reservation deposits will not be recorded as revenue until the orders for aircraft are delivered, which may not be for many years or at all if we do not deliver the aircraft. The deposits prioritize orders when the aircraft becomes available for delivery. Customers making deposits are not obligated to purchase aircraft until they execute a definitive purchase agreement. Customers may request a return of their refundable deposit any time up until the execution of a purchase agreement. Customers’ request for a return of their refundable deposits could adversely affect our liquidity resources and we may be financially unable to return such deposits.
Financial Advisory Fees in connection with the XTI Merger
Pursuant to the terms of an amended advisory fees agreement among Legacy XTI, the Company and Maxim and in accordance with the XTI Merger Agreement, the Company issued 385,359 registered shares of XTI Aerospace common stock in exchange for shares of Legacy XTI common stock issued to Maxim based on the exchange ratio under the XTI Merger Agreement. Additionally, Maxim will receive $0.2 million payable upon the closing of one or more debt or equity financings for which Maxim serves as placement agent or underwriter and in which the Company raises minimum aggregate gross proceeds of $10 million following the Effective Time.
Pursuant to its engagement letter with Legacy XTI, dated as of June 7, 2022, as amended (the “Chardan Engagement Letter”) and the XTI Merger Agreement, Chardan Capital Markets (“Chardan”) received a cash payment commitment of $0.2 million and 189,037 registered shares of XTI Aerospace common stock (the “Chardan Closing Shares”) in exchange for shares of Legacy XTI common stock issued to Chardan based on the exchange ratio under the XTI Merger Agreement. If within 90 days following the Effective Time, the Company consummates a public offering of securities in which the price per share of XTI Aerospace common stock (“Chardan Qualified Offering price”) is less than the per share price of Inpixon common stock utilized to calculate the number of Chardan Closing Shares, the Company will be required, subject to applicable securities laws, to issue additional shares of XTI Aerospace common stock to Chardan in an amount equal to (i) $1,000,000 minus the product of the number of Chardan Closing Shares and Chardan Qualified Offering Price, divided by (ii) the Chardan Qualified Offering Price.
Transaction Bonus Plan in connection with Future Strategic Transactions
On July 24, 2023, the compensation committee of the Board (the “Compensation Committee”) adopted a Transaction Bonus Plan, which was amended on March 11, 2024 (as amended, the “Plan,” and such amendment, the “Plan Amendment”), and is intended to provide incentives to certain employees and other service providers to remain with the Company through the consummation of a Contemplated Transaction or Qualifying Transaction (each as defined below) and to maximize the value of the Company with respect to such transaction for the benefit of its stockholders. The Plan is administered by the Compensation Committee. It will automatically terminate upon the earlier of (i) the one-year anniversary of the adoption date, (ii) the completion of all payments under the terms of the Plan, or (iii) at any time by the Compensation Committee, provided, however, that the Plan may not be amended or terminated following the consummation of a Contemplated Transaction or Qualifying Transaction without the consent of each participant being affected, except as required by any applicable law.
A “Contemplated Transaction” refers to a strategic alternative transaction including an asset sale, merger, reorganization, spin-off or similar transaction (a “Strategic Transaction”) that results in a change of control as defined in the Plan. A Qualifying Transaction refers to a Strategic Transaction that does not result in a change of control for which bonuses may be paid pursuant to the Plan as approved by the Compensation Committee. The XTI Merger qualifies as a Contemplated Transaction.
The Plan Amendment, among other things, changed the timing of and imposed certain additional conditions on the payment of certain bonuses to be paid to the participants thereunder, including Nadir Ali, Wendy Loundermon and Soumya Das.
Pursuant to the Plan, in connection with the closing of a Contemplated Transaction or a Qualifying Transaction, the participants will be eligible to receive bonuses as described below.
• Participants listed on Schedule 1 of the Plan, including Nadir Ali, Wendy Loundermon, Soumya Das and certain other employees, are eligible for a cash bonus equal to 100% of their aggregate annual base salary and target bonus amount in effect as of the closing of the Contemplated Transaction or a Qualifying Transaction, provided, however, that the Company’s payment of such bonus to a participant may, in the Company’s discretion, be conditioned on the participant’s timely execution and delivery of a customary release of claims and confidentiality agreement and such participant’s non-revocation of the release prior to the expiration of any revocation rights afforded to such participant by applicable law. These bonus amounts will generally be paid at the closing of each applicable transaction, except
49
Table of Contents
that bonus amounts in connection with the closing of the XTI Merger are payable according to the payment schedule set forth in the Plan Amendment and described below.
• Participants listed on Schedule 2 of the Plan, including Nadir Ali and Wendy Loundermon, are eligible for a cash bonus based on the Transaction Value (as defined below) attributed to the Contemplated Transaction or Qualifying Transaction, as calculated in accordance with the terms of the Plan. Mr. Ali is eligible for 3.5% of such Transaction Value less $6.0 million. Ms. Loundermon is eligible for 0.5% of such Transaction Value less $0.5 million. These bonus amounts will generally be paid at the closing of each applicable transaction subject to the treatment of deferred payments in accordance with the terms of the Plan, except that bonus amounts in connection with the closing of the XTI Merger are payable according to the payment schedule set forth in the Plan Amendment and described below. “Transaction Value” means the sum of any cash and the fair market value of any securities or other assets or property received by the Company or available for distribution to the holders of the Company’s equity securities in connection with the applicable transaction as provided for in the definitive agreement governing the applicable transaction, or such value as will be designated by the Compensation Committee. The Transaction Value applicable to the XTI Merger was assessed at $225 million which was determined by the Compensation Committee in part based on the enterprise value of Legacy XTI following a valuation analysis performed by an independent financial advisory firm.
• Participants listed on Schedule 3 of the Plan will be eligible for equity-based grants, including but not limited to, options, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, or such other rights to acquire shares of the Company’s common stock in connection with the closing of the Contemplated Transaction or a Qualifying Transaction, in such form and for such amounts as set forth on Schedule 3 or, if no such form or amount is specified for a participant on Schedule 3, in such form and for such amounts that may be approved by the Compensation Committee in its sole and absolute discretion.
Schedule 3 of the Plan provides that:
(i) Nadir Ali will receive an award (the “Award”) of fully vested shares of Company common stock issued under the Company’s 2018 Employee Stock Incentive Plan or any successor equity incentive plan adopted by the Company (the “Equity Plan”) on the date that is three (3) months following the closing of the XTI Merger (the “Grant Date”) covering a number of shares having a fair market value (based on the closing price per share on the Grant Date) equal to approxima tely $1 million. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Nadir Ali will not be eligible to receive the Award if his Consulting Agreement with the Company dated as of March 12, 2024 (the “Ali Consulting Agreement”), terminates before the Grant Date due to (a) Company Good Reason (as defined in the Ali Consulting Agreement) or (b) termination by Nadir Ali for any reason other than Consultant Good Reason (as defined in the Ali Consulting Agreement).
(ii) Any amounts payable to any participant in cash pursuant to the Plan, may be paid in shares under the Equity Plan upon written agreement of the Company and such participant.
The Plan Amendment provides that any amounts payable to a participant in connection with the closing of the XTI Merger are payable as follows:
(1) The first fifty percent (50%) of any amounts payable in connection with the XTI Merger pursuant to Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 of the Plan for each participant, as applicable (the “First Fifty Percent”), will become earned upon the earlier of closing of a financing (whether a registered offering or private unregistered offering) in which the Company sells Qualifying Securities (as defined below) and receives an amount of gross proceeds that when added to the proceeds of previous sales of Qualifying Securities following the closing of the XTI Merger equals $5 million (the “First Financing”) or June 30, 2024 (the “Earned Date”). “Qualifying Securities” means any debt or equity securities other than debt or equity securities having a maturity date or a redemption right at the option of the holder of fewer than six (6) months following the issuance of that security.
(2) The remaining fifty percent (50%) of any amounts payable pursuant to Schedule 1 and Schedule 2 of the Plan (the “Remaining Fifty Percent”) will be earned upon the earlier of the closing of a subsequent financing in which the Company receives an amount of gross proceeds that when added to the proceeds of previous sales of Qualifying Securities following the First Financing aggregates to at least $5 million (“Subsequent Financing”) or the Earned Date.
(3) Following the Earned Date, the First Fifty Percent (50%) will be paid in three (3) equal monthly installments, beginning on July 1, 2024, and on the first day of each month thereafter until the First Fifty Percent is paid in full. The Remaining Fifty Percent (50%) will be paid in three (3) equal monthly installments, beginning October 1, 2024 and on the first day of each month thereafter until the Remaining Fifty Percent (50%) is paid in full.
(4) A participant’s right to receive payment of the First Fifty Percent (50%) or the Second Fifty Percent (50%) is subject to the participant’s continuing employment or other service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates until the date on which the payment is earned (as specified in clause (1) or (2) above);

provided , however , that if a participant’s employment or service with the Company or any of its subsidiaries or affiliates terminates before the applicable payment is earned due to the involuntary termination of the participant other than for Cause, such participant will be deemed for this purpose to continue in employment or service with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates following the participant’s termination date until the date the applicable payment is earned.
(5) In the event the Company is unable to raise a minimum of $5 million from the sale of Qualifying Securities as of June 30, 2024, the participants designate and appoint Nadir Ali as the “Participant Representative” to work with the Company as necessary to amend the payment schedule set forth above to ensure that the Company will have sufficient cash to support its operations. If Nadir Ali cannot or refuses to serve the Participant Representative, then the Participant Representative will be selected by the Company from among the other participants entitled to receive any payment pursuant to Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 of the Plan.
(6) If the Company or Legacy XTI pays cash bonuses related to the closing of the XTI Merger to the Company’s or Legacy XTI’s employees or individual service providers who are not participants (“Non-Plan Transaction Bonuses”), any then-unpaid payments to participants pursuant to the Plan will be paid on an accelerated basis pursuant to a payment schedule that is substantially similar to the bonus payment schedule for the Non-Plan Transaction Bonuses. Conversely, if the Company agrees to an accelerated payment or more favorable payment terms of amounts payable pursuant to the Plan, all recipients of Non-Plan Transaction Bonuses will receive similar treatment.
In connection with the Plan Amendment, the Compensation Committee also adopted a new form of confidentiality and release agreement, which was executed and delivered by the Plan participants who resigned from their Company positions at the closing of the XTI Merger on March 12, 2024, including Mr. Ali and Ms. Loundermon. In addition, on March 12, 2024, the Plan participants who retained their employment with the Company following the closing of the XTI Merger, including Mr. Das, delivered an acknowledgment agreement to the Company irrevocably waiving and releasing the Company from any and all rights to payment of such individual’s payments under Schedule 1 of the Plan except pursuant to and as provided under the terms of the Plan Amendment.
Consulting Agreements
In conjunction with the Plan Amendment described above, the Compensation Committee approved and the Company entered into consulting agreements on March 12, 2024, with each of Nadir Ali (the “Ali Consulting Agreement”) , the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer , and Wendy Loundermon (the “Loundermon Consulting Agreement”), the Company’s former Chief Financial Officer.
Pursuant to the Ali Consulting Agreement, following the closing of the XTI Merger, Mr. Ali will provide consulting services to the Company f or 15 m onths or until earlier termination in accordance with its terms (the “Ali Consulting Period”). During the Ali Consulting Period, the Company will pay him a monthly fee of $20,000 .

If Mr. Ali terminates the Ali Consulting Agreement during the Ali Consulting Period for Consultant Good Reason (as defined in the Ali Consulting Agreement), the Company will be required to pay all consulting fees that would be due for the remainder of the Ali Consulting Period, including the Equity Payment described below.

Mr. Ali must continue to provide consulting services to the Company on the date of payment of an Equity Payment to receive the Equity Payment, unless the Company terminates the Ali Consulting Agreement without Company Good Reason or Mr. Ali terminates the Ali Consulting Agreement for Consulting Good Reason, in which case the Equity Payments would become due and payable in full. To the extent all or a portion of an Equity Payment is made in shares, such shares will be valued based on the closing price per share on the date on which the Equity Payment is made.
Subject to compliance with Section 15(b)(13) of Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) , if Mr. Ali provides services involving the identification of prospective merger or acquisition targets for the Company or its affiliates, it is intended that he be eligible for a bonus upon the successful delivery of services.

If, during the first six months of the Loundermon Consulting Period, the Company terminates the Loundermon Consulting Agreement without Company Good Reason (as defined in the Loundermon Consulting Agreement) or Ms. Loundermon terminates the Loundermon Consulting Agreement for Consultant Good Reason (as defined in the Loundermon Consulting Agreement), the Company will be required to pay all advisory fees that would be due for such six month period.
Legacy XTI Deferred Compensation and Retention Bonus Plan
In an effort to conserve cash, Legacy XTI implemented a cost savings plan, effective on July 1, 2022. As part of the cost savings plan, Legacy XTI installed a compensation reduction directive and retention bonus program impacting all employees and several current consultants, which is in effect until the Company secures sufficient financing as determined by executive management. Accrued deferred compensation amounts will be repaid to participating individuals when executive management, at its sole discretion, determines that sufficient funding has been received by the Company, provided, in the case of employees, that such employees remain employed with the Company on such date.
As part of the plan, Legacy XTI granted participants a retention bonus, of either cash or equity, at the participant’s discretion, equal in value to three months of their monthly deferred compensation amount, if cash, or six months of their monthly deferred compensation amount, if equity, if the employee remains with the Company at the “earn date,” which is defined as six months after the date on which the deferred compensation described above is repaid.
As of March 31, 2024, liability amounts of approximatel y $0.7 million and $0.1 million are included in Accrued Expenses and Other Current Liabilities and Related Party Payables, respectively, on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets relating to deferred compensation and retention bonuses under this plan.
Upon receiving additional financing during the first quarter of 2023, Legacy XTI restored the salaries of all employees to the original salary amount, effective with the semi-monthly payroll ending March 31, 2023.
Risks and Uncertainties
As of March 31, 2024, the Company has a working capital deficit of approximately $5.1 million, and cash of approximately $1.8 million. For the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company had a net loss of approximately $2.6 million. During the three months ended March 31, 2024, the Company used approximately $2.6 million of cash for operating activities.
The Company cannot assure you that we will ever earn revenues sufficient to support our operations, or that we will ever be profitable. In order to continue our operations, we have supplemented the revenues we earned with proceeds from the sale of our equity and debt securities and proceeds from loans and bank credit lines.
The Company's recurring losses and utilization of cash in its operations are indicators of going concern. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 have been prepared under the assumption that the Company will continue as a going concern for the next twelve months from the date the financial statements are issued. Management’s plans and assessment of the probability that such plans will mitigate and alleviate any substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern is dependent upon the ability to obtain additional equity or debt financing, and attain further operating efficiency, which together represent the principal conditions that raise substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern. The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements as of and for the three months ended March 31, 2024 and 2023 do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
