On the same day, the Company entered into notes payable agreements with Ares for an aggregate principal of $55,000, receiving net proceeds of $51,510, inclusive of a 4.00% original issue discount and $90 of debt issuance costs paid directly by the lender. The notes payable are collateralized by a first lien on virtually all tangible and intangible assets of the Company and bear interest at 14% per annum. The notes payable mature on March 1, 2022. In addition, in conjunction with the issuance of the notes payable, the Company committed to issue the Ares Warrants to the lender to purchase the Company’s Class A Common Stock no later than August 11, 2021, or if earlier, 15 days after consummation of the Business Combination. The warrants have a term of six years, be equal to 0.20% of the fully diluted capitalization of FFIE’s Class A Common Stock and have an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The commitment to issue the warrants meets the definition of a derivative, was accounted for as a liability, and will be marked to fair value at the end of each reporting period with changes in fair market value recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company determined the commitment to issue warrants was a liability as of March 1, 2021, and estimated the fair value of the warrants to be $5,000 using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model (see Note 8, Fair Value of Financial Instruments On August 5, 2021, the Company issued Ares warrants to purchase 670,092 shares of Class A Common Stock at an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The warrants are exercisable at any time within 6 years of the issuance date. Upon their issuance, the warrants met all requirements for equity classification under the equity scope exception in ASC 815-40 as the number of shares underlying the warrants and their exercise price were fixed. Accordingly, the Company determined the fair value of the Ares Warrants to be $2,507 on August 5, 2021 and recorded the value as a discount to the Notes Payable and an increase in APIC in the Consolidated Balance Sheets as of December 31, 2021. On August 26, 2021, the Company exercised its option under the March 1, 2021 notes payable agreement with Ares to draw an additional principal amount of $30,000, receiving net proceeds of $29,913, inclusive of $87 of debt issuance costs paid directly by the lender. The notes payable are collateralized by a first lien on virtually all tangible and intangible assets of the Company and bear interest at 14% per annum and mature on March 1, 2022. As the August 26, 2021 Notes mature in less than one year, according to the terms of the amended NPA, the Company expects to repay them with a payment premium of 14% (“Payment Premium”). The Company has elected the fair value option to value the notes as the notes include features, such as a contingently exercisable put option, which meet the definition of an embedded derivative. Upon the Closing of the Business Combination, the cash requirement prescribed in the NPA increased from $5,000 to $25,000. The Company has classified $25,000 as Restricted Cash on its Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2021. On February 25, 2022, the Company paid $96,921 in cash to settle the March 1, 2021 Notes and the August 26, 2021 Notes with principal amount of $85,000, accrued interest of $9,856 and Payment Premium of $2,065.

The Company received net proceeds of $35,603 as part of the June 2021 Notes inclusive of $4,200 of original issuance discount and $197 of debt issuance costs paid by the lender. The June 2021 Notes are subordinate to the notes payable issued to Ares on March 1, 2021 and August 26, 2021 (see (1) above) and senior in priority to the notes payable issued under the NPA prior to September 9, 2020. The June 2021 Notes mature on December 9, 2022, and do not bear interest unless extended beyond its maturity date by the US-based investment firm, in which case, the June 2021 Notes will bear interest at 10% per annum starting upon their original maturity. Each of the June 2021 Notes are subject to an original issue discount of 8% and 13%, respectively. One of the June 2021 Notes with a principal amount of $20,000 contains a conversion premium that, within a year of a Qualified SPAC Merger, the then outstanding principal and accrued interest of the notes playable plus a 30% premium may convert into Class A Common Stock of the Company, at the election of the US-based investment firm.

The warrants issued with the June 2021 Notes and the Optional Notes, along with the notes previously issued to the same lender, are provided with anti-dilution protection. The US-based investment firm has not elected to convert the Optional Notes to Class A Common Stock and they are outstanding as of December 31, 2021. On August 10, 2021, in accordance with the NPA, the US-based investment firm exercised its option to purchase optional notes (“Optional Notes”) with principal of $33,917, whose option was in conjunction with the original September 9, 2020, January 13, 2021 and March 12, 2021 notes payable. The Company received net proceeds of $30,375, which is the total principal amount of $33,917 net of 8% original issue discount and $828 of issuance costs. The Optional Notes bear interest at 15% beginning December 2021, and have a maturity date of February 10, 2023. The Optional Notes are convertible at the option of the holder with a conversion price of $10.00 per share. The Optional Notes contain a conversion premium, effective until August 10, 2022, according to which the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the notes payable at the time of liquidation plus a 30% premium are convertible into shares of Class A Common Stock. The Company elected the fair value option to measure the Optional Notes (see Note 8, Fair Value of Financial Instruments In conjunction with the issuance of the Optional Notes, the Company issued the US-based investment firm warrants to purchase up to 1,187,083 shares of Class A Common Stock with an exercise price of $10.00 per share. The warrants are exercisable within seven years of their original issuance dates. The fair value of the warrants of $7,976 upon issuance was recorded in APIC (see Note 8, Fair Value of Financial Instruments Subsequent to the balance sheet date, in January 2022, the Company defaulted on the June 2021 Notes and the Optional Notes. The holders of the Optional Notes have waived the default.

As a result of the September 2020 Modification of the notes payable, the Company recorded an immaterial gain on extinguishment and immaterial accretion of the discount in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss during the years ended December 31, 2021 and 2020. In 2019, the Company entered into a $700 note payable with an employee.

The PPP was established as part of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) and provided for loans to qualifying businesses. The loans and accrued interest are forgivable so long as the borrower uses the loan proceeds for eligible purposes, including payroll, benefits, rent, and utilities, as described in the CARES Act. The amount of loan forgiveness will be reduced if the borrower terminates employees or reduces salaries. The unforgiven portion of the PPP loan is payable over two years at an interest rate of 1%, with a deferral of payments for the later of the first six months or when the amount of the loan forgiveness is determined. The Company used the proceeds for purposes consistent with the PPP requirements. The note matured on April 17, 2022, had no covenants, and was unsecured.

Closing of the Business Combination As described in Note 3, Business Combination (5) In January 2019, upon extinguishment of a portion of the Faraday and Future (HK) Limited related party notes payable, the Company borrowed $54,179 through notes payable from a Chinese lender. The notes payable originally matured on December 31, 2020, bore interest of 12.00% per annum, had no covenants, and were unsecured. On December 31, 2020, the notes payable were modified to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2021 and add a conversion feature. The conversion feature, which was contingent upon the closing of a Qualified SPAC Merger, requires the Company to issue Class A ordinary shares to the lender based on a fixed conversion ratios immediately prior to the closing of the Qualified SPAC Merger to settle the outstanding note payable before being exchanged for Qualified SPAC Merger shares at the closing date. The modification was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring because the Company was experiencing financial difficulty and the conversion mechanism results in the effective borrowing rate decreasing after the restructuring. Since the future undiscounted cash flows of the restructured notes payable exceed the net carrying value of the original note payable due to the maturity date extension, the modification was accounted for prospectively with no gain or loss recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company concluded that the conversion feature does not require bifurcation based on the derivative accounting scope exception in ASC 815 for certain contracts involving an entity’s own equity. In conjunction with the Closing of the Business Combination, the Company issued Class A Common Stock to settle the note payable. As of and for the Year Ended 2021 2020 Outstanding principal $ — $ 57,293 Accrued interest — 13,769 Interest expense 3,408 7,387 Foreign exchange (gain) loss on principal (1,293 ) 4,108 Principal settled with equity 56,000 — Interest settled with equity 17,177 — (6) The Company issued 10% interest notes with various third parties through the NPA. Notes payable issued under the NPA are collateralized by virtually all tangible and intangible assets of the Company. Upon both a preferred stock offering and prepayment notice by the holder or the maturity date of the notes payable, the holder of the notes payable may elect to convert all of the outstanding principal and accrued interest of the notes payable plus a 20% premium into shares of preferred stock of the Company issued in a preferred stock offering. The Company elected the fair value option for these notes payable. See Note 8, Fair Value of Financial Instruments Between June 2019 and August 2019, the Company borrowed $17,637 through notes payable under the NPA. The notes originally matured on May 31, 2020 and bore interest of 10% per annum.

On various dates in 2016, the Company borrowed amounts aggregating of $31,500 through notes payable issued by a U.S. based investment firm. The notes had no covenants and were unsecured. In September and November, 2020, the notes payable were modified to extend the maturity date to June 30, 2021 and add a conversion feature. This feature, contingent upon the closing of a Qualified SPAC Merger, required the Company to issue Class A ordinary Stock to the lender based on a fixed conversion ratio immediately prior to the closing of the Qualified SPAC Merger to settle the outstanding notes payable before being exchanged for Qualified SPAC Merger shares upon the Qualified SPAC Merger closing date. The modification was accounted for as a troubled debt restructuring. The modification was accounted for prospectively with no gain or loss recorded in the Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Loss. The Company concluded that the conversion features did not require bifurcation. In December 2016, the Company borrowed $10,000 through notes payable issued by a U.S. based investment firm.
