As previously disclosed, on June 10, 2019, GigCapital, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”) issued fournon-convertible unsecured promissory notes (each, an “Extension Note” and collectively the “Extension Notes”) in the aggregate principal amount of $240,000.00, as follows: (i) $174,643.99 issued to GigAcquisitions, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (our “Sponsor”), (ii) $43,578.25 to Cowen Investments II LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Cowen Investments”), (iii) $19,599.94 to Irwin Silverberg, an individual and affiliate of Cowen Investments (“Silverberg”) and (iv) $2,177.82 to Jeffrey Bernstein, an individual and affiliate of Cowen Investments (“Bernstein”, and collectively with Sponsor, Cowen Investments, and Silverberg, our “Founders”). The Founders deposited such funds into the Company’s trust account (the “Trust Account”), as described in the prospectus filed by the Company in connection with the Company’s initial public offering. The Extension Notes were issued in connection with the approval of an amendment to the Company’ Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”) extending the time for the Company to complete its initial business combination to December 12, 2019 (the “Extension”), and constitutes the first monthly contribution as a loan of $240,000 to the Trust Account (the “Contribution”) as previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form8-K as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on May 16, 2019.
As previously disclosed in the Company’s Current Report on Form8-K as filed with the SEC on August 12, 2019, in connection with the obligations to fund additional loans for the Extension, as well as to provide for the Company’s working capital needs during the Extension, the Founders on August 9, 2019 assigned to various parties these obligations. As consideration for such assumption each of the Founders offered shares of common stock that they each held in the Company. Accepting such assignment were three of the Founders and certain members of GigAcquisitions, LLC. On August 9, 2019, those three Founders loaned the Company an additional aggregate of $204,302.18, of which $102,151.09 was deposited into the Trust Account for the third monthly Contribution on August 9, 2019, and the remaining $102,151.09 was deposited into the Trust Account for the fourth monthly Contribution on September 9, 2019. Also as previously disclosed, on August 9, 2019 the Company cancelled the previously reissued Extension Notes dated July 10, 2019 to these three Founders and reissued such Extension Notes to include the aggregate of the first, second, third, and fourth monthly Contribution amounts. In addition, the Company issued new Extension Notes in the aggregate amount of $275,697.82 to those certain members of GigAcquisitions, LLC who were part of the group that assumed the obligations set forth above, of which $137,848.91 was deposited into the Trust Account (for total deposits on August 9, 2019 into the Trust Account of $240,000), and the remaining $137,848.91 was deposited into the Trust Account for the fourth monthly Contribution on September 9, 2019, for a total aggregate deposit into the Trust Account of $240,000 on September 9, 2019.
