Surf Air Mobility Inc.

Up to 325,000,000 Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus relates to the registration of the resale by our stockholder identified in this prospectus (the “Selling Stockholder”) of up to 325,000,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (“Common Stock”), which may consist of any combination of (i) shares of Common Stock that are currently outstanding and held by the Selling Stockholder, (ii) shares of Common Stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder in connection with the Share Subscription Facility (as defined herein) and (iii) shares of Common Stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder upon the conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Security (as defined herein).

The Selling Stockholder may, or may not, elect to sell its shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus, from time to time as and to the extent they may determine, through public or private transactions at prevailing market prices or at privately negotiated prices. The shares may be offered by the Selling Stockholder to or through broker-dealers or other agents, directly to investors, or through any other manner permitted by law, on a continued or delayed basis. The timing, manner and amount of any sale are within the sole discretion of the Selling Stockholder. We will bear all costs, expenses and fees in connection with the registration of these shares, including with regard to compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws. The Selling Stockholder will bear all commissions and discounts, if any, attributable to their sale of shares of Common Stock. See the section entitled “Plan of Distribution.” We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder.

Our Common Stock is listed on the New York Stock Exchange (the “NYSE”) under the symbol “SRFM.” On July 10, 2024, the last sale price of our Common Stock as reported on the NYSE was $0.35 per share.

We are an “emerging growth company” and a “smaller reporting company,” each as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), and are therefore subject to reduced public company reporting requirements. This prospectus complies with the requirements that apply to an issuer that is an emerging growth company. See the sections entitled “Prospectus Summary — Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company” and “Prospectus Summary — Implications of Being a Smaller Reporting Company.”

See the section entitled “Risk Factors” beginning on page 8 to read about factors you should consider before buying shares of our Common Stock.

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (each as defined below) provide that the persons or entities who are not citizens of the United States (“Non-Citizens”), shall not, in the aggregate, own and or control more than 25.0% of our total voting interest. If Non-Citizens own (beneficially or of record) more than 25.0% of the total voting interest of our Common Stock, only permitted Non-Citizen holders consisting of Kuzari Investor 94647 LLC and our co-founders, Sudhin Shahani and Liam Fayed, and their respective affiliates (collectively, the “Permitted Holders”) will be entitled to vote. The voting rights of the Permitted Holders will be reduced pro rata if their combined ownership percentage exceeds 25.0%. Accordingly, if you are not a citizen of the United States as defined in 49 U.S.C. § 40102(a)(15) and as interpreted by the U.S. Department of Transportation, any shares of Common Stock that you purchase will be subject to voting restrictions as described above and your voting rights may be subject to automatic suspension. In addition to the voting restrictions described above, our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that Non-Citizens who are residents of countries that are not party to “open-skies” agreements with the United States (“NOS Non-Citizens”) shall not, in the aggregate, own more than 25.0% of the total number of our outstanding equity securities, and that all Non-Citizens (including any NOS Non-Citizens) shall not, in the aggregate, own more than 49.0% of the total number of our outstanding equity securities. See “Risk Factors — Risks Related to Our Operating as a Public Company — Our Amended and Restated Bylaws

and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation limit voting rights of certain foreign persons” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 (the “2023 Form 10-K”).

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any other regulatory body has approved or disapproved of these securities or passed upon the accuracy or adequacy of this prospectus. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

MARKET AND INDUSTRY DATA

The information incorporated by reference in this prospectus includes industry position and industry data and estimates that have been obtained or derived from independent consultant reports, publicly available information, various industry publications and other industry sources. Some data are also based on good faith estimates, which are derived from internal company analyses or review of internal company reports as well as the independent sources referred to above. Although we believe that the information on which these estimates of industry position and industry data are based are generally reliable, the accuracy and completeness of this information is not guaranteed and they have not independently verified any of the data from third-party sources nor have they ascertained the underlying economic assumptions relied upon therein. Our internal company reports have not been verified by any independent source. Statements as to industry position are based on market data currently available. While we are not aware of any misstatements regarding the industry data presented herein, these estimates involve risks and uncertainties and are subject to change based on various factors, including those discussed under the heading “Risk Factors” in this prospectus. Among other items, certain of the market research included in this prospectus was published prior to the outbreak of COVID-19 and did not anticipate the pandemic or the impact it has had on our industry. We have utilized this pre-pandemic market research in the absence of updated sources. These and other factors could cause results to differ materially from those expressed in these publications and reports.

RISK FACTORS

Investing in our Common Stock involves a high degree of risk. Before making an investment decision with respect to our securities, we urge you to carefully consider the risks described below and in the “Risk Factors” section of the 2023 Form 10-K and our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, each of which has been filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and is incorporated by reference into this prospectus. The risks and uncertainties described below and incorporated by reference into this prospectus are not the only ones we face. Additional risks and uncertainties not presently known or which we consider immaterial as of the date hereof may also have an adverse effect on our business. If any of the matters discussed below or in the “Risk Factors” section of the 2023 Form 10-K were to occur, our business, financial condition, results of operations, cash flows or prospects could be materially adversely affected, the market price of our Common Stock could decline and you could lose all or part of your investment in our Common Stock.

Risks Related to Our Financial Position and Capital Requirements

It is not possible to predict the actual number of shares we will need to sell under the Share Subscription Facility to GEM in order to draw down under such facility. Further, we may not have access to the full amount available under the Share Subscription Facility, or may not be able to draw down under the Share Subscription Facility in a timely manner (or at all) in order to meet its existing obligations.

Pursuant to the Share Subscription Facility, upon the terms of and subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, we have the right from time to time at our option to direct GEM to purchase up to a specified maximum amount of shares of our Common Stock, up to a maximum aggregate purchase price equal to the Aggregate Limit over the Term of the Share Subscription Facility. We may request GEM Advances at any time in an aggregate amount of up to $100 million, consisting of incremental advances of up to $25 million each provided that the first GEM Advance may not exceed $7.5 million without the consent of GEM. Any GEM Advance will reduce amounts that we can request for future draw downs. We have drawn upon the GEM Advances in 2023 and intend to continue to draw upon the GEM Advances in 2024 to augment our capital resources to address our capital needs. However, we will be unable to request any of the GEM Advances until this registration statement has been declared effective.

We will not have the right to commence any sales of our Common Stock to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility until the commencement date, which is the date on which all of the conditions to GEM’s purchase obligations set forth in the Share Subscription Facility, including the filing by us of one or more registration statements with respect to the shares of our Common Stock to be sold pursuant to the Share Subscription Facility and such registration statement(s) becoming effective, have been satisfied. The registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part is intended to serve as such registration statement. The failure to satisfy the Specified Conditions or any conditions under the Share Subscription Facility before the Term expires, may result in our inability to request any or all of the GEM Advances or other draw downs pursuant to the Share Subscription Facility. In addition, upon requesting any GEM Advance under the Share Subscription Facility, we have agreed to deposit into escrow an amount of shares of Common Stock equal to three times the number of shares of Common Stock set out in the applicable advance request for a GEM Advance. There can be no assurances that we will be able to accurately estimate the number of shares of our Common Stock to be deposited since we will need to determine this number prior to the trading period of our Common Stock that will determine the actual purchase price for a GEM Advance. GEM will not be obligated to (but may, at its option, choose to) purchase shares of our Common Stock to the extent such purchase would result in beneficial ownership (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and Rule 13d-3 promulgated thereunder) by GEM, together with its affiliates, of more than 9.99% of our issued and outstanding Common Stock. Such beneficial ownership limitation will not apply to the GEM Advances. In addition, the amount requested for each draw down (other than a GEM Advance) available under the Share Subscription Facility may not exceed 400% of the average daily trading volume for the 30 trading days immediately preceding any draw down. There can be no guarantee that we will be able to access any or all of the GEM Advances or other draw downs available under the Share Subscription Facility. Our inability to access a portion or the remaining amounts available under the Share Subscription Facility, in the absence of any other financing sources, will have a material adverse effect on our business and our ability to operate as a going concern.

The purchase price per share to be paid by GEM for the shares of our Common Stock that we may elect to sell to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility pursuant to the GEM Advances or draw downs, if any, will fluctuate based on the volume weighted average trading price of our Common Stock during the applicable period for each purchase

---

made pursuant to the Share Subscription Facility. Accordingly, it is not possible to predict, prior to any such sales, the number of shares of our Common Stock that we will sell to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility, the purchase price per share that GEM will pay for shares purchased from us under the Share Subscription Facility, or the aggregate gross proceeds that we will receive from those purchases by GEM (other than a GEM Advance) under the Share Subscription Facility, if any. Therefore, sales to GEM by us in order to utilize the GEM Advance will, and any future draw downs under the Share Subscription Facility could, result in substantial dilution to the interests of other holders of its shares of our Common Stock.

Sales of shares of our Common Stock, if any, to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility will be determined by us from time to time in our sole discretion and will depend on a variety of factors, many of which are outside of our control, including, among other things, market conditions and the terms, conditions and limitations set forth in the Share Subscription Facility (subject to certain limitations on the obligation of GEM to purchase shares including, among other things, beneficial ownership limitations (other than in respect of the GEM Advances)). We may ultimately decide to sell to GEM all, some or none of the shares of our Common Stock that may be available for us to sell to GEM pursuant to the Share Subscription Facility. Depending on market liquidity at the time, resales of those shares by GEM may cause the public trading price of our Common Stock to decrease.

This registration statement registers an aggregate of up to 325,000,000 shares of Common Stock that may be sold to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility, but this does not represent the full amount of shares of Common Stock that could be issued and sold to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility. As a result of the above factors, it is possible that we may need to issue and sell more than the number of shares that we initially expects to issue to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility in order to receive aggregate gross proceeds equal to GEM’s $400 million total aggregate purchase commitment under the Share Subscription Facility, which could cause additional substantial dilution to holders of our Common Stock. The number of shares of our Common Stock ultimately offered for sale by GEM is dependent upon the number of shares of our Common Stock we ultimately sells to GEM under the Share Subscription Facility.

Risks Related to Ownership of Our Common Stock

We may fail to qualify for continued listing on the NYSE, which could make it more difficult for our stockholders to sell their shares.

Our Common Stock is listed on the NYSE under the symbol “SRFM.” We are required to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the NYSE to maintain such listing, including, among other things, the maintenance of a certain market capitalization and average closing price of our Common Stock.

On April 2, 2024, we received formal notice from the NYSE indicating that we were not in compliance with Section 802.01C of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because the average closing price of our Common Stock was less than $1.00 over a consecutive 30 trading-day period. We subsequently notified the NYSE of our intent to regain compliance with the requirements of Section 802.01C. We are able to regain compliance at any time within the six-month period following receipt of the notice if, on the last trading day of any calendar month during this cure period (or the last trading day of this cure period), we have a closing share price of at least $1.00 and an average closing share price of at least $1.00 over the prior 30 trading-day period. If we do not regain compliance with Section 802.01C within such cure period, the NYSE may commence delisting proceedings.

Additionally, on May 20, 2024, we received formal notice from the NYSE indicating that we were no longer in compliance with Section 802.01B of the NYSE Listed Company Manual because our average total market capitalization over a consecutive 30 trading-day period was less than $50 million and, at the same time, our stockholders’ equity was less than $50 million. We subsequently submitted a plan within 45 days of the notice advising the NYSE of definitive action we have taken or will take to be in compliance with Section 802.01B within 18 months of receipt of the notice. If our plan is not accepted, we would be subject to delisting proceedings. If the NYSE accepts our plan, our Common Stock will continue to be listed and traded on the NYSE during the 18-month cure period, subject to our compliance with the plan and other continued listing standards. The NYSE will review us on a quarterly basis to confirm compliance with the plan. If we fail to comply with the plan or do not meet the continued listing standards at the end of the 18-month cure period, we will be subject to the prompt initiation of NYSE suspension and delisting procedures.

There can be no assurance that we will be able to regain compliance with the NYSE’s continued listing requirements. If our stock price does not increase and if our market capitalization does not meet the minimum

---

standards, we may not be able to meet the standards for continued listing on the NYSE within the compliance period. In the event that we do not regain compliance with the NYSE continued listing standards, we could face significant material adverse consequences, including:

These forward-looking statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding estimates and forecasts of financial and performance metrics, projections of market opportunity and market share, potential benefits and the commercial attractiveness to our customers of our products and services and the dependence on third-party partnerships in the development of fully-electric and hybrid-electric powertrains, and the potential success of our marketing and expansion strategies. These statements are based on various assumptions, whether or not identified in this prospectus, and on the current expectations of our management and are not predictions of actual performance. These forward-looking statements are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to serve as, and must not be relied upon by any investor as, a guarantee, an assurance, a prediction or a definitive statement of fact or probability.

---

All forward-looking statements included herein attributable to us or any person acting on any party’s behalf are expressly qualified in their entirety by the cautionary statements contained or referred to in this section.

USE OF PROCEEDS

DIVIDEND POLICY

The payment of cash dividends in the future will be dependent upon our revenue and earnings, if any, capital requirements and general financial condition.

The payment of any cash dividends will be within the discretion of our board of directors.

UNAUDITED PRO FORMA CONDENSED COMBINED FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Defined terms included below have the same meanings as terms defined and included elsewhere in this prospectus. Unless the context otherwise requires, all references in this section to “Surf Air Mobility Inc.” refer to the Company and its wholly-owned subsidiaries after the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions.

Introduction

The Company is providing the following unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information to aid you in your analysis of the financial aspects of the following: (i) the Internal Reorganization (including the Conversions) and the Southern Acquisition; (ii) the GEM Advances; and (iii) other adjustments. The pro forma financial information has been prepared in accordance with Regulation S-X Article 11, Pro Forma Financial Information, as amended. The pro forma adjustments are described in the accompanying footnotes.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 combines the historical audited consolidated statement of operations of the Company for the year ended December 31, 2023, the historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations of Southern for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and Southern’s unaudited statement of operations information for the period from July 1, 2023 through July 26, 2023 on a pro forma basis as if the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions, summarized below, had been consummated on January 1, 2023.

A pro forma balance sheet is not presented for the year ended December 31, 2023, as the Company’s most recent balance sheet already reflects the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions, summarized below.

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to factually supportable events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions, summarized below. The adjustments presented on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information have been identified and presented to offer relevant information necessary to provide a reasonable basis for understanding of the combined company upon consummation of the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions, summarized below.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from and should be read in conjunction with the following historical financial statements and accompanying notes, which are incorporated by reference in this prospectus:

The foregoing historical financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information should also be read together with the Company’s 2023 Form 10-K, “Southern’s Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in Exhibit 99.4 to the Company’s Current Report on Form 8-K dated August 29, 2023, and other financial information included elsewhere in this prospectus.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is for illustrative purposes only. The financial results may have been different had the companies always been combined. You should not rely on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information as being indicative of the historical results that would have been achieved had the companies always been combined or the future results that the combined company will experience.

Internal Reorganization, Southern Acquisition and related transactions

In connection with the Internal Reorganization, occurring on July 21, 2023, the following conversions occurred:

For purposes of these conversions, ordinary shares of SAGL were exchanged for shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion ratio of 22.40 to 1 as of July 21, 2023.

Pursuant to the Southern Acquisition Agreement, on the closing date a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company merged with and into Southern, after which Southern is a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Company’s acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Southern has been treated as a business combination under Accounting Standard Codification 805, Business Combinations and has been accounted for using the acquisition method. The Company has recorded the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Southern. Any excess amounts after allocating the purchase consideration to identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill.

Notes to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

1. Basis of Presentation

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations for the year ended December 31, 2023 combines the historical audited consolidated statement of operations of Surf Air Mobility Inc. (the “Company” or “SAM”) for the year ended December 31, 2023, the historical unaudited condensed consolidated statement of operations of Southern for the six months ended June 30, 2023, and Southern’s unaudited statement of operations information for the period from July 1, 2023 through July 26, 2023 on a pro forma basis as if the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions had been consummated on January 1, 2023.

A pro forma balance sheet is not presented for the year ended December 31, 2023, as the Company’s most recent balance sheet already reflects the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions.

The historical financial information has been adjusted to give effect to the factually supportable events that are related and/or directly attributable to the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions. The adjustments presented on the unaudited pro forma condensed combined statement of operations has been identified and presented to offer relevant information necessary to provide a reasonable basis for understanding of the combined company upon consummation of the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information was derived from and should be read in conjunction with the following historical financial statements and accompanying notes:

The Company’s acquisition of all of the issued and outstanding share capital of Southern has been treated as a business combination under Accounting Standard Codification 805, Business Combinations and has been accounted for using the acquisition method. The Company has recorded the fair value of assets acquired and liabilities assumed from Southern. Any excess amounts after allocating the purchase consideration to identifiable tangible and intangible assets acquired and liabilities assumed has been recorded as goodwill.

Management has made significant estimates and assumptions in its determination of the pro forma adjustments. As the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information has been prepared based on these preliminary estimates, the final amounts recorded may differ materially from the information presented.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information does not give effect to any synergies, operating efficiencies, tax savings or cost savings that may be associated with the Southern Acquisition and related transactions.

The pro forma adjustments reflecting the completion of the Southern Acquisition and related transactions are based on currently available information and assumptions and methodologies that management believes are reasonable under the circumstances. The pro forma adjustments, which are described in the accompanying notes, may be revised as additional information becomes available and is evaluated. Therefore, it is likely that the actual adjustments will differ from the pro forma adjustments and it is possible the difference may be material. Management believes that its assumptions and methodologies provide a reasonable basis for presenting all of the significant effects of the Southern Acquisition and related transactions based on information available to management at the current time and that the pro forma adjustments give appropriate effect to those assumptions and are properly applied in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information.

The unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information is not necessarily indicative of what the actual results of operations and financial position would have been had the Southern Acquisition and related transactions taken place on the dates indicated, nor are they indicative of the future consolidated results of operations or financial position of the combined company.

2. Southern Acquisition

Under the acquisition method, the total estimated purchase price, or consideration transferred, is measured at the transaction closing date. Southern security holders are entitled to receive a number of shares representing the greater of (a) share equal to a value of $81.25 million (based on the opening price per share of our Common Stock on the day of listing); or (b) 12.5% of the fully-diluted shares of the Company upon listing. The assets of Southern have been measured based on various estimates using assumptions that the Company’s management believes are reasonable utilizing information currently available.

The process for estimating the fair values of identifiable intangible assets and certain tangible assets requires the use of significant estimates and assumptions, including estimating future cash flows and developing appropriate discount rates.

For purposes of measuring the estimated fair value of the assets acquired as reflected in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information, in accordance with the applicable accounting guidance, the Company established a framework for measuring fair values. The applicable accounting guidance defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price). Market participants are assumed to be buyers and sellers in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability. Additionally, under the applicable accounting guidance, fair value measurements for an asset assume the highest and best use of that asset by market participants. As a result, the Company may be required to value assets of Southern at fair value measures that do not reflect the Company’s intended use of those assets. Use of different estimates and judgments could yield different results.

As a result the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information reflects the purchase price applicable to the Southern Acquisition as follows (in thousands):

 

		December 31, 2023
Identifiable intangible assets:
EAS contracts		$	25,770
Trademark/ Tradename			1,280
Deferred tax liability			(4,656	)
Goodwill			60,045
Other net liabilities assumed			(490	)
Total consideration			81,949
Common equity delivered at closing		$	81,250
Cash paid		$	699

 

Under the acquisition method of accounting, the Company estimated the fair values of the acquired tangible and intangible assets. The valuation of the identifiable intangible assets acquired was based on management’s estimates, currently available information and reasonable and supportable assumptions. The tangible long-lived assets were recorded at their estimated fair values, which approximates their carrying value, while the intangible long-lived assets were valued using a discounted cash flow method.

3. Reclassification Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

Certain reclassifications have been made to the historical presentation of Southern to conform to the financial statement presentation of the combined company:

---

4. Adjustments to Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Financial Information

The transaction accounting adjustments included in the unaudited pro forma condensed combined financial information are as follows:

In conjunction, Southern billed the Company additional management fee for above services on the monthly basis through June 30, 2023. On the Unaudited Pro Forma Condensed Combined Statement of Operations, the Company recognizes them as cost of revenue, while Southern recognizes them as revenue. Therefore, this adjustment eliminates the relevant revenue and costs of revenue between the Company and Southern as related with management fee for the six month period ended June 30, 2023.

---

 

										Incremental Amortization
Asset		Fair Value				Weighted Average Estimated Useful Life				Annual
EAS Contracts			25,770			10 years					2,577
Trademark/ Tradename			1,280			4 years					320
Total		$	27,050				—			$	2,897

 

5. Net Loss per Share

The pro forma basic and diluted earnings per share amounts are based upon the number of the Company shares that would be outstanding, assuming the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions occurred on January 1, 2023. As the Internal Reorganization, the Southern Acquisition and related transactions are being reflected as if they had occurred at the beginning of the period presented, the calculation of weighted average shares outstanding for basic and diluted net loss per share assumes that the shares issued to effect these transactions have been outstanding for the entire period presented.

 

		Year Ended
		December 31, 2023
Pro forma net loss- attributable to SAM common shareholders		$	(211,289	)
Weighted average shares outstanding – basic and diluted			76,150,437
Pro forma net loss per share – basic and diluted			(2.77	)
Excluded securities:
Options to purchase ordinary shares			1,606,159
Restricted stock units			3,773,063
Unvested RSPAs			422,641

The Selling Stockholder and its pledgees, donees, transferees, assignees or other successors-in-interest may, or may not, elect to sell their shares of our Common Stock covered by this prospectus, as and to the extent they may determine. We will have no input if and when the Selling Stockholder may, or may not, elect to sell its shares of common stock or the prices at which any such sales may occur. See the section titled “Plan of Distribution.”

Information concerning the Selling Stockholder may change from time to time, and any changed information will be set forth in supplements to this prospectus, if and when necessary. Because the Selling Stockholder may sell all, some, or none of the shares of our Common Stock covered by this prospectus, we cannot determine the number of such shares of our Common Stock that will be sold by the Selling Stockholder, or the amount or percentage of shares of Common Stock that will be held by the Selling Stockholder upon consummation of any particular sale. In addition, the Selling Stockholder may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time and from time to time, shares of Common Stock in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, after the date on which they provided the information set forth in the table below. We are not party to any arrangement with the Selling Stockholder or any broker-dealer with respect to sales of the shares of our Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder. See the section titled “Plan of Distribution.”

We have determined beneficial ownership in accordance with the rules and regulations of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose. Except as indicated by the footnotes below, we believe, based on information furnished to us by the Selling Stockholder, that the Selling Stockholder has sole voting and sole investment power with respect to all shares that it beneficially owns, subject to applicable community property laws.

Percentage ownership is based on 87,247,108 shares of our Common Stock outstanding as of July 5, 2024. In computing the number of shares beneficially owned by, and the percentage ownership of, the Selling Stockholder, we deemed to be outstanding all shares subject to options held by the Selling Stockholder that are currently exercisable or are exercisable within 60 days of July 5, 2024, and all shares that are issuable pursuant to restricted stock units that will vest within 60 days of July 5, 2024. However, except as described above, we did not deem such shares outstanding for the purpose of computing the percentage ownership of any other person.

DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES

The following is a summary of the material terms of our securities registered under Section 12 of the Exchange Act. The summary does not purport to be complete, and is subject to and qualified its entirety by reference to our amended and restated certificate of incorporation (the “Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation”) and our amended and restated bylaws (the “Amended and Restated Bylaws”), copies of which have been filed as exhibits with the SEC, and relevant provisions of the Delaware General Corporation Law (“DGCL”).

General

Our authorized capital stock consists of 800,000,000 shares of our Common Stock and 50,000,000 shares of undesignated preferred stock, $0.0001 par value.

As of July 5, 2024, there are 87,247,108 shares of our Common Stock outstanding held by 264 stockholders of record. Pursuant to our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, our board of directors have the authority, without stockholder approval, except as required by the listing standards of the NYSE, to issue additional shares of our Common Stock.

Common Stock

All issued and outstanding shares of our Common Stock are duly authorized, validly issued, fully paid, and non-assessable. All authorized but unissued shares of our Common Stock are available for issuance by our board of directors without any further stockholder action, except as required by the listing standards of the NYSE.

The rights, preferences, and privileges of holders of Common Stock are subject to and may be adversely affected by the rights of the holders of shares of any series of preferred stock that we may designate and issue in the future.

Voting Rights

Subject to the limitations on foreign ownership described below, holders of record of our Common Stock are entitled to one vote for each share held on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Unless specified in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation or Amended and Restated Bylaws, or as required by applicable provisions of the DGCL or applicable stock exchange rules, the affirmative vote of a majority of our shares of our Common Stock that are voted is required to approve any such matter voted on by our stockholders.

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation does not provide for cumulative voting for the election of directors.

Dividend Rights

Subject to preferences that may be applicable to any then-outstanding preferred stock, holders of our Common Stock are entitled to receive ratably those dividends, if any, as may be declared by our board of directors out of legally available funds. Under Delaware law, we can only pay dividends either out of “surplus” or out of the current or the immediately preceding year’s net profits. Surplus is defined as the excess, if any, at any given time, of the net assets of a corporation over its total liabilities and statutory capital. The value of a corporation’s assets can be measured in a number of ways and may not necessarily equal their book value.

Right to Receive Liquidation Distributions

In the event of our liquidation, dissolution, or winding up, the holders of our Common Stock will be entitled to share ratably in the assets legally available for distribution to stockholders after the payment of or provision for all of our debts and other liabilities, subject to the prior rights of any preferred stock then-outstanding.

Other Matters

Our Common Stock does not have preemptive rights pursuant to the terms of our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws. There are no redemption or sinking fund provisions applicable to our Common Stock.

---

Preferred Stock

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that shares of preferred stock may be issued from time to time in one or more series. Our board of directors is authorized to fix the voting rights, if any, designations, powers, preferences, the relative, participating, optional or other special rights and any qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, applicable to the shares of each series. In addition, our board of directors is able to, without stockholder approval, issue preferred stock with voting and other rights that could adversely affect the voting power and other rights of the holders of our Common Stock and could have anti-takeover effects. The ability of our board of directors to issue preferred stock without stockholder approval could have the effect of delaying, deferring or preventing a change of control of us or the removal of our management. Although we did not have any preferred stock outstanding as of April 26, 2024 and do not currently intend to issue any shares of preferred stock, we cannot assure you that we will not do so in the future.

Registration Rights

GEM

Pursuant to the terms of the registration rights agreement dated as of August 26, 2020, that we entered into with GEM and an affiliated entity, we were required to file a registration statement with respect to securities issued, or that could be issued and are required to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement. We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to satisfy such registration requirement.

The registration rights agreement also provides that, in the event that we propose to register any of our securities under the Securities Act, either for our own account or for the account of other securityholders, other than (i) on Form S-4, (ii) Form S-8 or (iii) their then equivalents relating to equity securities to be issued solely in connection with any acquisition of any entity or business or equity securities issuable in connection with our employee stock option or other employee benefit plans, GEM will be entitled to certain piggyback registration rights allowing it to include its shares in such registration, subject to certain marketing and other limitations. We will pay the registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, of the shares registered by the registrations described above.

In addition, in connection with our entry into the MCSPA with GEM on March 1, 2024, we agreed to file a registration statement with the SEC for the resale by the Selling Stockholder of at least 8,000,000 shares of Common Stock less any shares of our Common Stock sold by the Selling Stockholder from March 1, 2024 to the Closing Date and to use our commercially reasonable efforts to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement until the date on which all of the shares issuable upon the conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Security have been sold. We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part to satisfy, among other things, our obligations under the MCSPA and will pay the registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, of the shares registered by such registration.

Other Registration Rights

The following parties are entitled to customary rights with respect to the registration of shares of our Common Stock:

---

A registration statement intended to satisfy such registration requirements was declared effective on September 29, 2023 and registered an aggregate of 1,983,333 shares of our Common Stock.

Palantir is entitled to certain customary rights with respect to the registration of 10,663,956 shares of Common Stock issued to Palantir in satisfaction of fees owed for services. We are required to use our commercially reasonable efforts to file a registration statement registering the resale of such shares as soon as reasonably practicable after their issuance and are required to maintain the effectiveness of such registration statement. We will pay the registration expenses, other than underwriting discounts and commissions, of the shares registered by such registration.

Certain Foreign Ownership and Anti-Takeover Provisions of Delaware Law and our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that at no time shall more than 25.0% of our total voting interest be owned or controlled by Non-Citizens. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws implement this legally-required provision by limiting voting rights of Non-Citizens to the Permitted Holders in the event that Non-Citizens own (beneficially or of record) more than 25.0% of the total voting interest. All other Non-Citizens that own (beneficially or of record) or have voting control over any shares of our capital stock will have their voting rights subject to automatic suspension. The voting rights of the Permitted Holders will be reduced pro rata if their combined ownership percentage exceeds 25.0%. Additionally, our Amended and Restated Bylaws limit the amount of outstanding equity interests held by Non-Citizens who are a resident of a country that is not party to an “open-skies” agreement with the United States to 25.0% and all Non-Citizens collectively to 49.0%.

We are subject to the provisions of Section 203 of the DGCL regulating corporate takeovers. This statute prevents certain Delaware corporations, under certain circumstances, from engaging in a “business combination” with:

A “business combination” includes a merger or sale of our assets with a market value of 10% or more of the aggregate market value of all of our assets or of all of our outstanding stock. However, the above provisions of Section 203 do not apply if:

Under certain circumstances, Section 203 of the DGCL will make it more difficult for a person who would be an “interested stockholder” to effect various business combinations with us for a three-year period. This provision may encourage companies interested in acquiring us to negotiate in advance with our board of directors because the stockholder approval requirement would be avoided if our board of directors approves either the business combination or the transaction that results in the stockholder becoming an interested stockholder. Section 203 of the DGCL also may have the effect of preventing changes in our board of directors and may make it more difficult to accomplish transactions that stockholders may otherwise deem to be in their best interests.

---

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that our board of directors is classified into three classes of directors. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board of directors only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings.

Lock-Up

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws contains certain lock-up provisions related to our Common Stock (i) received by former SAGL shareholders as consideration in the Internal Reorganization, (ii) issued to our directors, officers and employees upon the settlement or exercise of stock options or other equity awards of SAGL that we assumed after the Internal Reorganization and (iii) issued pursuant to certain of our convertible instruments, including warrants and SAFEs (holders thereof, collectively, the “Lock-Up Holders”). Shares of our Common Stock received by former stockholders of Southern in connection with our acquisition of Southern are not subject to any lock-up.

In addition, we waived the lock-up provisions in respect of the approximately 13.3 million shares of Common Stock held by lenders, including PFG, LamVen LLC and LamJam II LLC. Our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that (1) 40% of the shares issued to the Lock-Up Holders will not be subject to any lock-up provisions, (2) 30% of the shares issued to the Lock-Up Holders will be restricted from being transferred, subject to certain limited exceptions, for a period of 90 days from the closing of the Internal Reorganization, which expired on October 19, 2023, and (3) the remaining 30% of the shares issued to the Lock-Up Holders will be restricted from being transferred, subject to certain limited exceptions, for a period of 180 days from the closing of the Internal Reorganization, provided that if the lock-up period would end during a Blackout Period (as defined in our Amended and Restated Bylaws), the lock-up period would then end on the first trading day following the end of the Blackout Period. The lock-up of the remaining 30% of the shares issued to the Lock-Up Holders expired on April 1, 2024. The lock-up provisions may be waived by our board of directors, in its sole discretion, with respect to any shares held by a Lock-Up Holder. In addition, shares of any of our lenders who is party to a credit, financing or other agreements containing an express waiver of the lock-up provisions, will not be subject to any lock-up.

Authorized But Unissued Shares

Our authorized but unissued Common Stock and preferred stock are available for future issuances without stockholder approval (including a specified future issuance) and could be utilized for a variety of corporate purposes, including future offerings to raise additional capital, acquisitions, and employee benefit plans. The existence of authorized but unissued and unreserved Common Stock and preferred stock could render more difficult or discourage an attempt to obtain control of us by means of a proxy contest, tender offer, merger, or otherwise.

Exclusive Forum for Certain Lawsuits

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation requires, to the fullest extent permitted by law, that derivative actions brought in our name, actions against any of our current or former directors, officers, employees, or stockholders for breach of fiduciary duty and other similar actions may be brought only in the Court of Chancery in the State of Delaware, or if such court does not have subject matter jurisdiction, the federal district court of the State of Delaware. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation also requires, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the federal district courts of the United States to be the exclusive forum for the resolution of any complaint asserting a cause of action under the Securities Act. In addition, the exclusive forum provision in our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation will not apply to suits brought to enforce any duty or liability created by the Exchange Act or any other claim for which the federal courts have exclusive jurisdiction.

Although we believe these provisions benefit us by providing increased consistency in the application of Delaware law in the types of lawsuits to which it applies, a court may determine that these provisions are unenforceable, and to the extent they are enforceable, the provisions may have the effect of discouraging lawsuits against our directors and officers, although our stockholders will not be deemed to have waived our compliance with federal securities laws and the rules and regulations thereunder.

Special Meeting of Stockholders

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that special meetings of our stockholders may be called only by a resolution adopted by our board of directors.

---

Advance Notice Requirements for Stockholder Proposals and Director Nominations

Our Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that stockholders seeking to bring business before our annual meeting of stockholders, or to nominate candidates for election as directors at our annual meeting of stockholders, must provide timely notice of their intent in writing. To be timely, a stockholder’s notice will need to be received by the company secretary at our principal executive offices not later than the close of business on the 90th day nor earlier than the opening of business on the 120th day prior to the anniversary date of the immediately preceding annual meeting of stockholders. Pursuant to Rule 14a-8 of the Exchange Act, proposals seeking inclusion in our annual proxy statement must comply with the notice periods contained therein. Our Amended and Restated Bylaws also specify certain requirements as to the form and content of a stockholders’ meeting. These provisions may preclude our stockholders from bringing matters before our annual meeting of stockholders or from making nominations for directors at our annual meeting of stockholders.

Action by Written Consent

Any action required or permitted to be taken at any annual and special meeting of stockholders may be taken only upon the vote of stockholders at an annual or special meeting duly noticed and called in accordance of the DGCL and may not be taken by written consent of the stockholders without a meeting.

Classified Board of Directors

Our board of directors is divided into three classes, Class A, Class B and Class C, with members of each class serving staggered three-year terms. As a result, in most circumstances, a person can gain control of our board of directors only by successfully engaging in a proxy contest at two or more annual meetings. Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation and Amended and Restated Bylaws provide that the authorized number of directors may be changed only by resolution of our board of directors. Subject to the terms of any preferred stock, any or all of the directors may be removed from office at any time, but only for cause and only by the affirmative vote of holders of at least 66 2/3% of the voting power of all then outstanding shares of our capital stock entitled to vote generally in the election of directors, voting together as a single class. Any vacancy on our board of directors, including a vacancy resulting from an enlargement of our board of directors, may be filled only by vote of a majority of our directors then in office.

Limitation of Liability of Directors and Officers

Our Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides that, to the fullest extent provided by Delaware law, no director or officer will be personally liable to us or our stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director or officer, as applicable.

Transfer Agent

The transfer agent for our Common Stock is Equiniti Trust Company, LLC. The transfer agent’s address is 6201 15th Avenue, Brooklyn, NY 11219.

Listing

Our Common Stock is currently listed on the NYSE under the symbol “SRFM.”

We are not party to any arrangement with the Selling Stockholder or any broker-dealer with respect to sales of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder. As such, we do not anticipate receiving notice as to if and when the Selling Stockholder may, or may not, elect to sell its shares of Common Stock or the prices at which any such sales may occur, and there can be no assurance that the Selling Stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling its shares of Common Stock:

In addition to sales made pursuant to this prospectus, the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus may be sold by the Selling Stockholder in individually negotiated, private transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act, and the Selling Stockholder may distribute the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus to affiliates, managers, members, partners, equity holders and/or other interest holders of such Selling Stockholder. Under the securities laws of some states, shares of Common Stock may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers.

 

At any time a particular offer of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any underwriters, dealers, brokers or agents, any option under which underwriters may purchase additional shares of Common Stock from the Selling Stockholder(s), any discounts, commissions, concessions and other items constituting compensation from the Selling Stockholder(s) and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or reallowed or paid to dealers. Such prospectus supplement, and, if necessary, a post-effective amendment to the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part, will be filed with the SEC to reflect the disclosure of additional information with respect to the distribution of the shares of Common Stock covered by this prospectus.

We will not receive any proceeds from the sale of shares of Common Stock by the Selling Stockholder.

---

Subject to the lock-up provisions in our Amended and Restated Bylaws, the Selling Stockholder may from time to time transfer, pledge, assign or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of Common Stock owned by it, and, if it defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the transferees, pledgees, assignees or secured parties may offer and sell the shares of Common Stock from time to time under this prospectus, under an amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act amending the Selling Stockholder to include the transferee, pledgee, assignee or other successors in interest as Selling Stockholders under this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder also may transfer the shares of Common Stock in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the registered beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.

The Selling Stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the Common Stock in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholder may also sell securities short and deliver these securities to close out their short positions, or loan or pledge the securities to broker-dealers that in turn may sell these securities. The Selling Stockholder may also enter into option or other transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions or create one or more derivative securities which require the delivery to such broker-dealer or other financial institution of Common Stock offered by this prospectus, which Common Stock such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).

The Selling Stockholder may use one or more financial intermediaries to effectuate sales, if any, of the shares of Common Stock being offered by this prospectus. Each such financial intermediary may receive commissions for executing such sales. In such event, any commissions received by financial intermediaries and any profit on the resale of the Common Stock purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. Any financial intermediaries that are involved in selling the Common Stock may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In addition, the Selling Stockholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act with respect to shares of Common Stock issuable to the Selling Stockholder in connection with the Share Subscription Facility.

The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the Common Stock. The Company has agreed to indemnify GEM against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act.

We agreed to keep this prospectus effective for GEM until the earlier of (i) the date on which all of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Mandatory Convertible Security have been sold pursuant to this prospectus or Rule 144 under the Securities Act or any other rule of similar effect or (ii) the date on which all such shares may be sold pursuant to Rule 144 without volume or manner-of-sale restrictions, as determined by the Company. The Common Stock will be sold only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers if required under applicable state securities laws. In addition, in certain states, the Common Stock covered hereby may not be sold unless they have been registered or qualified for sale in the applicable state or an exemption from the registration or qualification requirement is available and is complied with.

We have advised the Selling Stockholder that it is required to comply with Regulation M promulgated under the Exchange Act. With certain exceptions, Regulation M precludes the Selling Stockholder, any affiliated purchasers, and any broker-dealer or other person who participates in the distribution from bidding for or purchasing, or attempting to induce any person to bid for or purchase any security which is the subject of the distribution until the entire distribution is complete. Regulation M also prohibits any bids or purchases made in order to stabilize the price of a security in connection with the distribution of that security. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the securities offered by this prospectus. The Selling Stockholder has informed us that it has not engaged, and will not engage, in any short selling of our securities or other hedging activities.

Item 14. Indemnification of Directors and Officers.

Section 145 of the DGCL concerning indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents is set forth below.

“Section 145. Indemnification of officers, directors, employees and agents; insurance.

---

---

The Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation provides for indemnification of our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL, and the Amended and Restated Bylaws provide for indemnification of our directors and officers to the maximum extent permitted by the DGCL.

In addition, we entered into indemnification agreements with directors and officers containing provisions which are in some respects broader than the specific indemnification provisions contained in the DGCL. The indemnification agreements require us, among other things, to indemnify its directors and officers against certain liabilities that may arise by reason of their status or service as directors or officers and to advance their expenses incurred as a result of any proceeding against them as to which they could be indemnified.

Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act may be permitted to our directors, officers, and controlling persons pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, we have been advised that, in the opinion of the SEC, such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person in a successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, we will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to the court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
