Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
Purchase
Agreement
On
December 27, 2023, Alpha Partners Technology Merger Corp. (the “Company”), Alpha Partners Technology Merger Sponsor
LLC (“Alpha Partners Sponsor”) and Mercury Capital, LLC (“Mercury Capital”) entered into a purchase agreement
(the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which, at a closing on December 28, 2023 (the “Closing”), Mercury Capital
(i) purchased 3,902,648 founder units of the Company from Alpha Partners Sponsor, each unit consisting of one Class B ordinary share
(the “Class B shares”) and one-third of one redeemable warrant to acquire one Class B share, which founder units are subject
to forfeiture in certain circumstances, and (ii) became entitled to 70% of 2,030,860 founder units that Alpha Partners Sponsor placed
in escrow at the Closing to the extent such founder units are allocated to investors who hold and do not redeem their Class A ordinary
shares of the Company at the time of the Company’s initial business combination, for an aggregate purchase price of $1.
Alpha
Partners Sponsor and Mercury Capital each agreed to pay $112,500 in Extension Contributions (as defined in the Company’s definitive
proxy statement, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on July 7, 2023) in each of December 2023 and January 2024. In addition,
pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement, Alpha Partners Sponsor agreed to pay, or cause its affiliates to pay, certain liabilities
of the Company accrued and outstanding as of the Closing and will deliver founder units to Mercury Capital to the extent such liabilities
are unsatisfied or Alpha Partners Sponsor’s obligation to make Extension Contributions is not satisfied.
Following
the Closing, Alpha Partners Sponsor has no further obligations with respect to the Company and Mercury Capital assumed all obligations
relating to the Company, including, (i) to cause the Company to file a proxy statement providing public investors of the Company with
the option to accept a revised trust extension arrangement or redeem their Class A ordinary shares and receive their pro rata
share of the Company’s trust account, (ii) to cause the Company to satisfy all of its public reporting requirements as well as
taking all action to cause the Company to remain listed on Nasdaq, (iii) the payment of all Extension Contributions after January 2024
and working capital of the Company, at the discretion of Mercury Capital, and (iv) all other obligations of Alpha Partners Sponsor
related to the Company.
The
foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Purchase
Agreement, which is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
Subscription
Agreement
On
January 3, 2024, the Company, Mercury Capital and Palmeira Investment Limited (the “Investor”) entered into a subscription
agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”), pursuant to which Mercury Capital may raise up to $1,500,000 from the Investor
to fund extension payments and working capital for the Company, including $250,000 upon the execution of the Subscription Agreement,
$250,000 on February 1, 2024, and as otherwise called by Mercury Capital in its discretion. At the closing of the Company’s initial
business combination, Mercury Capital will forfeit 0.85 Class B shares, and the Company will issue an equal number of shares of its common
stock to the Investor, for each dollar funded by the Investor pursuant to the Subscription Agreement. If the Company’s initial
business combination does not occur, Mercury Capital will not forfeit any shares.
Prior
to the consummation of the Company’s initial business combination, the Investor has the right to appoint one representative to
the Board of Directors of the Company (the “Board”) and Mercury Capital agreed to vote its shares in favor of such representative.
In addition, the Company agreed not to enter into a definitive agreement with respect to a proposed business combination without the
prior written consent of Mercury Capital and the Investor.
The
foregoing description of the Subscription Agreement
is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of the Subscription Agreement,
which is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The
information disclosed under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to the Subscription Agreement is incorporated into
this Item 3.02 by reference. The Company’s issuance of shares to the Investor at the closing of the Company’s initial business
combination will be exempt from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), in reliance
upon Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, as a transaction by an issuer not involving a public offering.
Item 5.01 Change in Control of Registrant.
The
information disclosed under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K with respect to the Purchase Agreement and under Item 5.02 of
this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 5.01 to the extent required herein.
Following
the Closing, Alpha Partners Sponsor has ceased to control the Company. The former members of management of the Company no longer hold
any executive officer positions and the former directors of the Company have all resigned pursuant to the terms of the Purchase Agreement.
Following
the Closing, Mercury Capital beneficially owns approximately 55% of the Company’s outstanding Class B shares, has the power to
appoint all members of the Board other than the representative designated by the Investor, and may therefore be deemed to control the
Company.
Item 5.02 Departure of Directors or Certain Officers; Election of Directors; Appointment of Certain Officers; Compensatory Arrangements of Certain Officers.
On
December 28, 2023, Michael D. Ryan, Steve Brotman, Scott Grimes, John Rice, Marcie Vu and Tracy R. Wolstencroft resigned as members
of the Board, and Matt Krna and Sean O’Brien resigned from their respective positions of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial

(c) All
rights to exculpation or indemnification for acts or omissions occurring through the date of Closing now existing in favor of any of the

any provision of the Indemnity Agreements, each Indemnity Agreement shall continue to be binding and remain in full force and effect after
any indemnitee thereunder has ceased to serve as an officer or director of the SPAC.
(e) The
Acquirer hereby agrees and acknowledges that the Sponsor is not conveying ownership rights or granting the Acquirer or any affiliate of
the Acquirer a license to use any of the trade names, trademarks, service marks, logos or domain names of the Sponsor or any of its affiliates

Parties may have not adequate remedy at law, and agree that irreparable damage would occur in the event that any of the provisions of
this Agreement were not performed by an applicable Party in accordance with their specific terms or were otherwise breached. Accordingly,
each Party shall be entitled to seek an injunction or restraining order to prevent breaches of this Agreement and to seek to enforce specifically

suit or proceeding in any of the Courts, irrevocably waives any claim that such action, suit or other proceeding has been brought in an
inconvenient forum and further irrevocably waives the right to object, with respect to such action, suit or other proceeding, that such
Court does not have any jurisdiction over such Party. Any Party may serve any process required by such Courts by way of notice.
14. WAIVER

Exhibit 10.2
SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
THIS SUBSCRIPTION AGREEMENT
(this “Agreement”) is made and entered into effective as of January 3, 2024 (the “Effective Date”),
by, between and among Palmeira Investment Limited (the “Investor”), Alpha Partners Technology Merger Corp., a Cayman
Islands exempt company (“SPAC”), and Mercury Capital, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“Sponsor”).
Investor, SPAC and Sponsor are referred to in this Agreement individually as a “Party” and collectively as the “Parties.”
WHEREAS, SPAC is a special
purpose acquisition company that closed on its initial public offering on July 30, 2021, with 24 months to complete an initial business
combination (a “De-SPAC”);
WHEREAS, SPAC held a Special
Meeting during which SPAC’s shareholders voted to approve a proposal to extend the date by which the SPAC must consummate the De-SPAC
from July 30, 2023 to July 30, 2024, and SPAC has filed a preliminary proxy statement with the Securities and Exchange Commission to extend
the date by which the SPAC must consummate the De-SPAC to January 30, 2025 (the “Extension”);
WHEREAS, the Sponsor currently
holds SPAC Class B ordinary shares, par value $0.0001 per share, purchased in a private placement from a seller that acquired the shares
prior to SPAC’s initial public offering (the “Founder Shares”)
WHEREAS, as of the date of this Agreement, SPAC
has not completed a De-SPAC; and
WHEREAS, Sponsor is seeking
to raise up to $1,500,000 to fund the Extension and to provide working capital to the SPAC.
WHEREAS, pursuant to the terms
and conditions of this Agreement, Investor has agreed to fund $1,500,000 (such amount, the “Investor Capital Contribution”).
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration
of the premises set forth above, which are incorporated in this Agreement as if fully set forth below, and the representations, warranties,
covenants and agreement contained in this Agreement, and intending to be legally bound hereby, the Parties agree as follows.
ARTICLE I
SUBSCRIPTION AND DE-SPAC PAYMENT
| 1.1 | Capital Calls. From time to time, the SPAC will request funds from the Sponsor for working capital purposes or for the Sponsor
to fund an extension payment pursuant to the SPAC’s Memorandum and Articles of Association (each a “Drawdown Request”).
On at least five (5) calendar days’ prior written notice (“Capital Notice”), the Sponsor may require a drawdown against
the Investor Capital Contribution in order to meet the Sponsor’s commitment to the SPAC under a Drawdown Request (each a “Capital
Call”) subject to the following conditions: |
| 1.1.1 | The Capital Notice to the Investor shall include (i) the total amount requested by the SPAC under the Drawdown Request and (ii) the
amount being called from the Investor. |
| 1.1.2 | The aggregate amount of the Capital Calls shall not exceed the Investor Capital Contribution. |
| 1.1.3 | A Capital Call of $250,000 of the Investor Capital Contribution will be called at signing; |
| 1.1.4 | A Capital Call of $250,000 of the Investor Capital Contribution will be called on February 1, 2024; and |
| 1.1.5 | A Capital Call of the remaining balance of the Investor Capital Contribution may be called by the Sponsor at its discretion. |
| 1.2 | Sponsor Forfeiture; SPAC Issuance. In consideration of the Capital Call(s) made hereunder: |
| 1.2.1 | Sponsor will forfeit 0.85 Class B ordinary share of the SPAC for each dollar the Investor funds pursuant to the Capital Call(s) hereunder
(the “Sponsor Shares”) at the closing of a De-SPAC transaction (the “De-SPAC Closing”). If the De-SPAC
Closing does not occur, Sponsor will not forfeit any Sponsor Shares. |
| 1.2.2 | At the De-SPAC Closing, the SPAC will issue to the Investor a number of shares of the SPAC’s common stock (the “Subscription
Shares”) equal to the number of Sponsor Shares forfeited by the Sponsor pursuant to Section 1.2.1. If the De-SPAC Closing
does not occur, Investor will not be entitled to receive any Subscription Shares. |
| 1.2.3 | The Subscription Shares will be subject to the same earn-out provision, if any, as the Sponsor on a pro rata basis. |
| 1.2.4 | Following the De-SPAC Closing, the SPAC shall provide Investor the same registration rights for the Subscription Shares as the SPAC
provides to the Sponsor. |
| 1.3 | Investor Board Rights. Prior to the consummation of the initial Business Combination, Investor shall have the right to appoint
one representative to the SPAC’s board of directors until the earlier to occur of (i) any Business Combination and (ii) either Investor
transferring or disposing of any of its Subscription Shares, other than to one of its affiliates. Sponsor shall have the right to nominate
all other directors for election to the SPAC’s board of directors. Sponsor agrees to vote the Founder Shares in favor of Investor’s representative
to the SPAC’s board of directors when Investor’s representative is up for election. It is acknowledged and agreed that the SPAC shall
not enter into a definitive agreement regarding a proposed Business Combination without the prior written consent of Sponsor and Investor. |
| 1.4 | Sponsor Commitment Rights. Each member of the Sponsor has the right to contribute any amount requested under each Drawdown
Request (“Sponsor Capital Contribution”). For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Agreement shall limit the ability
of the SPAC or the Sponsor to enter into other agreements with each other or with other parties which shall provide for funding of the
SPAC (through the issuance of equity, entry into promissory notes, or otherwise) outside of Drawdown Requests. |
| 1.5 | Wiring Instructions. Within five (5) calendar days of receiving a Capital Notice, the Investor shall advance the Capital Call
amount specified in the Capital Notice to the Sponsor by wire transfer of immediately available funds pursuant to the wiring instructions
provided separately in advance to the Investor. For clarity, the aggregate amount of the Capital Calls funded under this Agreement, excluding
any Capital Calls funded by Sponsor Capital Contributions as set forth under Section 1.3, will not exceed the Investor Capital
Contribution. |
ARTICLE II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES
Each Party hereby represents and warrants to each
other Party as of the date of this Agreement that:
| 2.1 | Authority. Such Party has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement and to carry out its obligations hereunder.
The execution, delivery and performance by the Party of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby have
been duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the relevant Party, and no further approval or authorization is required on
the part of such Party. This Agreement will be valid and binding on each Party and enforceable against such Party in accordance with its
terms, except as the same may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, fraudulent transfer or conveyance, moratorium
or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors rights generally and general equitable principles, regardless of whether such enforceability
is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity. |
| 2.2 | Acknowledgement. Each Party acknowledges and agrees that the Subscription Shares will not be registered under the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) or under any state securities laws and the Investor represents that,
as applicable, it (a) is acquiring the Subscription Shares pursuant to an exemption from registration under the Securities Act with no
present intention to distribute them to any person in violation of the Securities Act or any applicable U.S. state securities laws, (b)
will not sell or otherwise dispose of any of the Subscription Shares, except in compliance with the registration requirements or exemption
provisions of the Securities Act and any applicable U.S. state securities laws, (c) has such knowledge and experience in financial and
business matters and in investments of this type that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of the investment and related economic
terms hereunder and of making an informed investment decision, and has conducted a review of the business and affairs of the SPAC that
it considers sufficient and reasonable for purposes of making the transfer, and (d) is an “accredited investor” (as that
term is defined by Rule 501 under the Securities Act). Each Party acknowledges and agrees that it will not treat this subscription as
indebtedness for U.S. tax purposes. |
| 2.3 | Trust Waiver. Investor hereby represents and warrants that it has read the final prospectus of the SPAC, dated as of July 27,
2021 and filed with the SEC on July 29, 2021 (the “SPAC Prospectus”), and understands that the SPAC has established a
trust account (the “Trust Account”) containing the proceeds of its initial public offering (the “IPO”)
and from certain private placements occurring simultaneously with the IPO (including interest accrued from time to time thereon) for the
benefit of the SPAC’s public stockholders (the “Public Stockholders”), and that, except as otherwise described in the
SPAC Prospectus, the SPAC may disburse monies from the Trust Account only: (a) to the Public Stockholders in the event they elect to redeem
their Company shares in connection with the consummation of the SPAC’s initial business combination (as such term is used in the SPAC
Prospectus) (the “Business Combination”) or in connection with an extension of its deadline to consummate a Business
Combination, (b) to the Public Stockholders if the SPAC fails to consummate a Business Combination within 36 months after the closing
of the IPO (as such date may be extended by amendment to the SPAC’s organizational documents), (c) with respect to any interest earned
on the amounts held in the Trust Account, amounts necessary to pay for any taxes and up to $100,000 in dissolution expenses, or (d) to
the SPAC after or concurrently with the consummation of a Business Combination. For and in consideration of the SPAC entering into this
Agreement, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, Investor hereby
agrees that notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, Investor does not now and shall not at any time hereafter
have, and waives any and all right, title and interest, or any claims of any kind it has or may have in the future as a result of, or
arising out of, this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Subscription Shares, in or to any monies held in the Trust
Account (or any distributions therefrom directly or indirectly to Public Stockholders (“Public Distributions”)), and
agrees not to seek recourse or make or bring any action, suit, claim or other proceeding against the Trust Account or Public Distributions
as a result of, or arising out of, this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or the Subscription Shares, regardless of whether
such claim arises based on contract, tort, equity or any other theory of legal liability. To the extent Investor commences any action
or proceeding based upon, in connection with, as a result of or arising out of, this Agreement, the transactions contemplated hereby or
the Subscription Shares, which proceeding seeks, in whole or in part, monetary relief against the SPAC or its Representatives (as defined
below), Investor hereby acknowledges and agrees that Investor’s sole remedy shall be against funds held outside of the Trust Account (other
than Public Distributions) and that such claim shall not permit Investor (or any person claiming on its behalf or in lieu of any of it)
to have any claim against the Trust Account (including any distributions therefrom) or any amounts contained therein. Notwithstanding
anything else in this Section 2.3 to the contrary, nothing herein shall (x) serve to limit or prohibit Investor’s right to pursue
a claim against the SPAC for legal relief against assets held outside the Trust Account, (y) serve to limit or prohibit any claims that
Investor may have in the future against the SPAC’s assets or funds that are not held in the Trust Account (including any funds that have
been released from the Trust Account to the SPAC (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, funds released to redeeming stockholders of the
SPAC) and any assets that have been purchased or acquired with any such funds), or (z) be deemed to limit Investor’s right, title, interest
or claim to the Trust Account by virtue of Investor’s record or beneficial ownership of securities of the SPAC acquired by any means other
than pursuant to this Agreement, including to any redemption right with respect to any such securities of the SPAC. For purposes of this
Agreement, “Representatives” with respect to any person shall mean such person’s affiliates and its and its affiliate’s
respective directors, officers, employees, consultants, advisors, agents and other representatives. |
| 2.4 | Restricted Securities. Investor hereby represents, acknowledges and warrants its representation of, understanding of and confirmation
of the following: |
| ● | Investor realizes that, unless subject to an effective registration statement, the Subscription Shares cannot readily be sold as they
will be restricted securities and therefore the Subscription Shares must not be accepted unless Investor has liquid assets sufficient
to assure that Investor can provide for current needs and possible personal contingencies; |
| ● | Investor understands that, because SPAC is a “shell company” as contemplated under paragraph (i) of Rule 144, regardless
of the amount of time that the Investor holds the Subscription Shares, sales of the Subscription Shares may only be made under Rule 144
upon the satisfaction of certain conditions, including that SPAC is no longer a ‘shell company’ and that SPAC has not been a ‘shell company’
for at least the last 12 months-i.e., that no sales of Subscription Shares can be made pursuant to Rule 144 until at least 12 months after
the De-SPAC Closing; and SPAC has filed with the SEC during the 12 months preceding the sale, all quarterly and annual reports required
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended; |
| ● | Investor confirms and represents that it is able (i) to bear the economic risk of the Subscription Shares, (ii) to hold the Subscription
Shares for an indefinite period of time, and (iii) to afford a complete loss of the Subscription Shares; and |
| ● | Investor understands and agrees that a legend has been or will be placed on any certificate(s) or other document(s) evidencing the
Subscription Shares in substantially the following form: |
“THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED
BY THIS CERTIFICATE HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED OR ANY STATE SECURITIES ACT. THE SECURITIES
HAVE BEEN ACQUIRED FOR INVESTMENT AND MAY NOT BE SOLD, TRANSFERRED, PLEDGED OR HYPOTHECATED UNLESS (I) THEY SHALL HAVE BEEN REGISTERED
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES ACT, OR (11) AN EXEMPTION FROM THE REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS
UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED, EXISTS.”
ln connection with a transfer, the
SPAC shall take all steps necessary in order to remove the legend referenced in the preceding paragraph from the Subscription Shares immediately
following the earlier of (a) the effectiveness of a registration statement applicable to the Subscription Shares and (b) any other applicable
exception to the restrictions described in the legend occurs.
| 2.5 | Title to Securities. Sponsor hereby represents and warrants that Sponsor is the record and beneficial owner of, and has good
and marketable title to, the Sponsor Shares. The SPAC hereby represents and warrants that the Subscription Shares, when issued to Investor
as provided herein, will be validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable and, other than as set forth in Section 1.2.3, free and
clear of all liens, pledges, security interests, charges, claims, encumbrances, agreements, options, voting trusts, proxies and other
arrangements or restrictions of any kind (other than under applicable securities laws). |

| 3.5 | Governing Law; Submission to Jurisdiction. This Agreement shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws
of the State of Delaware, without regard to its conflicts of laws rules. Each Party (a) irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction

Court of the State of Delaware), or, if it has or can acquire jurisdiction, the United States District Court for the District of Delaware
(collectively, the “Courts”), for purposes of any action, suit or other proceeding arising out of this Agreement; and
(b) agrees not to raise any objection at any time to the laying or maintaining of the venue of any such action, suit or proceeding in
any of the Courts, irrevocably waives any claim that such action, suit or other proceeding has been brought in an inconvenient forum and
further irrevocably waives the right to object, with respect to such action, suit or other proceeding, that such Court does not have any

OTHERWISE, THAT SUCH OTHER PARTY WOULD NOT, IN THE EVENT OF ANY ACTION, SEEK TO ENFORCE THAT FOREGOING WAIVER AND (B) ACKNOWLEDGES THAT
IT AND THE OTHER PARTIES HAVE BEEN INDUCED TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT BY, AMONG OTHER THINGS, THE MUTUAL WAIVERS AND CERTIFICATIONS
IN THIS SECTION. |
| 3.7 | Entire Agreement. This Agreement contains the entire agreement between the Parties and supersedes any previous understandings,
commitments or agreements, oral or written, with respect to the subject matter hereof. No modification of this Agreement or waiver of
the terms and conditions hereof shall be binding upon any Party, unless mutually approved in writing. |
| 3.8 | Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts (delivered by email or other means of electronic transmission),

of the Parties and their respective successors and permitted assigns. This Agreement shall not be assigned by operation of law or otherwise

| 3.11 | Specific Performance. Each Party acknowledges that the rights of each Party to consummate the transactions contemplated hereby
are unique, recognizes and affirms that in the event of a breach of this Agreement by any Party, money damages may be inadequate and the
non-breaching Parties may have not adequate remedy at law, and agree that irreparable damage may occur in the event that any of the provisions

counsel fees and expenses) as they are incurred in connection with the investigation of, preparation for or defense or settlement of any
pending or threatened claim or any action, suit or proceeding arising therefrom, whether or not such Indemnified Party is a party thereto
and whether or not such claim, action, suit or proceeding is initiated or brought by or on behalf of SPAC or Sponsor. The provisions of
this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement. |
