On June
21, 2022, Ackrell SPAC Partners I Co. (the “Company”) issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”)
in the principal amount of up to $600,000 to North Atlantic Imports, LLC (“NAI”), a Utah limited liability company
d/b/a Blackstone Products. NAI, entered into a business combination agreement with the Company, among others, on December 22, 2021. The
Note is non-interest bearing and payable in cash upon the earlier of the closing of the Company’s initial business combination and
September 23, 2022, subject to the trust waiver contained in the Note.
The
Company will deposit not later than June 30, 2022, an aggregate of $200,000 (the “Extension Payment”) into the
trust account of the Company for its public stockholders, representing $0.0388 per public subunit, which enables the Company to further
extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from June 23, 2022 to July 23, 2022 (the
“Extension”). The Extension is the first of up to three monthly extensions permitted under the Certificate of
Amendment to the Company’s Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the “Charter Amendment”)
filed with the Office of the Secretary of State of Delaware following stockholder approval of the Extension at the Company’s Special
Meeting of Stockholders discussed in Items 5.03 and 5.07 of this report. The Company previously extended the period of time it has to
consummate its initial business combination from December 23, 2021 to March 23, 2022 and from March 23, 2002 to June 23, 2022. The Company
will borrow an additional $200,000 for deposit into the trust account in accordance with the terms of the Note and the Charter Amendment
for each additional monthly extension, if and when required.
A copy
of the Note is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this report and is incorporated herein by reference. The disclosure set forth in this Item 2.03
is intended to be a summary only and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Note.
Item 5.03. Amendments

On June

At the Meeting, the Company’s stockholders approved the Charter Amendment, which extends the date by which the Company must consummate
its initial Business Combination from June 23, 2022 to September 23, 2022, subject to the approval
of the Board of Directors of the Company, provided the sponsor or its designees deposit into the trust account an amount equal to the
lesser of $0.043 per share for each public share that has not been redeemed by the end of the last extension period and $200,000, within
seven days after the commencement of each extension period (the “Extension”). The Company filed the Charter
Amendment with the Office of the Secretary of State of Delaware on June 21, 2022, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 to this report
and is incorporated by reference herein.

were 5,154,224. The Company must deposit into the Trust Account for the initial extension period (commencing June 24, 2022 and ending
