Analysis · SVAQ · Technology
EigenQ, the target of SVAQ's pending SPAC merger, has signed a new subordinated unsecured note facility of up to $5,000,000 principal (up to $4,500,000 cash after a 10% original issue discount). The initial $2,413,333.33 note was issued against $2,172,000 the investor had already funded, so no new cash arrived at this closing; the remaining $2,328,000 is available only at a later additional closing subject to conditions. The money is expensive and structurally weak: 8% cash or 10% PIK interest, a 30% maturity premium, a 40% default premium, and $12.00 conversion with a nine-month VWAP reset down to a $5.00 floor. It sits behind the September 17 secured notes, with a subordination agreement blocking principal payments and enforcement until the senior debt is repaid. That extends the company's funding runway into the merger, but it stacks another convertible claim on the equity ahead of the shareholder vote on the $2.93 billion combination.
