Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

As previously disclosed in the Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on April 21, 2023, Social Leverage Acquisition Corp I, a blank check company incorporated in the state of Delaware (“Social Leverage,” “SLAC” or the “Company”), entered into certain Voting, Share Purchase and Non-Redemption Agreements (the “Initial Non-Redemption Agreements”) with certain unaffiliated holders (the “Initial Holders”) of the Company’s Class A common stock. Pursuant to the Initial Non-Redemption Agreements, the Initial Holders agreed, among other things, not to redeem an aggregate of 650,000 shares of Class A common stock (the “Non-Redeemed Shares”) in connection with any vote of the stockholders of the Company where such Initial Holder would otherwise have been entitled to redeem the Non-Redeemed Shares and to hold the Non-Redeemed Shares until the business day following the meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which the stockholders vote on and approve the consummation of SLAC’s initial business combination (the “Business Combination”).

On May 26, 2023, the Company entered into additional non-redemption agreements with three additional unaffiliated holders (the “Additional Holders”) with respect to certain shares of the Company’s Class A common stock currently held by or recently purchased by such Additional Holders, or which may be purchased by such Additional Holders prior to the date that is 30 days from the date of the Additional Redemption Agreements (as defined below) or such later date agreed by the Company in its absolute discretion, up to an aggregate cap of 345,220 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock (the “Additional Non-Redeemed Shares”). The Additional Holders currently hold an aggregate of approximately 297,767 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock and one of the Additional Holders may purchase up to approximately 47,453 additional shares of the Company’s Class A common stock. The additional shares of Class A common stock may be purchased by such Additional Holder either on the open market or directly, in a privately negotiated transaction, from other holders of the Company’s Class A common stock.

The Company entered into two separate forms of non-redemption agreements with the Additional Holders. With respect to 248,620 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock currently held by the Additional Holders (the “Voting Non-Redeemable Shares”), the Company entered into Voting, Share Purchase and Non-Redemption Agreements (the “Non-Redemption and Voting Agreements”), which are on materially the same terms as the Initial Non-Redemption Agreements, the form of which was previously filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 21, 2023 and incorporated by reference herein. Pursuant to the Non-Redemption and Voting Agreements, the Additional Holders have agreed to vote their respective Voting Non-Redeemable Shares in favor of certain matters to be put to a vote of the stockholders of the Company, including the consummation of the Business Combination and related transactions. With respect to 49,147 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock recently purchased by one of the Additional Holders and up to 47,453 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock which may be purchased by that Additional Holder after the date hereof (the “Non-Redeemable Shares”), the Company entered into a Share Purchase and Non-Redemption Agreement (the “Non-Redemption Agreement” and, together with the Non-Redemption and Voting Agreements, the “Additional Non-Redemption Agreements”), which requires the Additional Holder to cause such Non-Redeemable Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum at certain meetings of the stockholders of the Company and to abstain from voting that Holder’s Non-Redeemable Shares on certain matters to be put to a vote of the stockholders of the Company, including the consummation of the Business Combination and related transactions.

Pursuant to the Non-Redemption and Voting Agreements, the Additional Holders agreed, among other things: (i) not to redeem the Voting Non-Redeemable Shares in connection with any vote of the stockholders of the Company where such Additional Holder would otherwise have been entitled to redeem such Voting Shares; (ii) to hold the Additional Non-Redeemed Shares until the business day following the meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which the stockholders vote on and approve the consummation of the Business Combination, except that the Additional Holders may transfer the Voting Non-Redeemable Shares to other holders of Class A common stock which are subject to a non-redemption agreement with the Company on materially the same terms as the Non-Redemption and Voting Agreements; and (iii) to vote their Voting Non-Redeemable Shares in favor of certain matters to be put to a vote of the stockholders of the Company, including, among other things, the consummation of the Business Combination and related transactions.

Pursuant to the Non-Redemption Agreement, the applicable Additional Holder agreed, among other things: (i) not to redeem the Non-Redeemable Shares in connection with any vote of the stockholders of the Company where such Additional Holder would otherwise have been entitled to redeem such Non-Redeemable Shares; (ii) to hold the Non-


Redeemable Shares until the business day following the meeting of the stockholders of the Company at which the stockholders vote on and approve the consummation of the Business Combination, except that the Additional Holder may transfer the Non-Redeemable Shares to other holders of Class A common stock which are subject to a non-redemption agreement with the Company on materially the same terms as the Non-Redemption Agreements; (iii) to cause the Non-Redeemable Shares to be counted as present for purposes of establishing a quorum at certain meetings of the stockholders of the Company, and to abstain from voting their Non-Redeemable Shares in favor of certain matters to be put to a vote of the stockholders of the Company, including, among other things, the consummation of the Business Combination and related transactions, and (iv) not to purchase any Additional Non-Redeemed Shares at a price exceeding $10.22 per share of Class A common stock, being the minimum expected per-share redemption price in connection with the Company’s redemption process with respect to the Business Combination.

In consideration of the agreements described above, the Company agreed, subject to the respective Additional Holder’s compliance with their obligations under the Additional Non-Redemption Agreements, to issue to the Additional Holders (or designees of such Holders) between 1,025,640 and 1,189,089 shares of Class A common stock upon the closing of the Business Combination, depending on the number of additional Non-Redeemable Shares acquired by the Additional Holder party to the Non-Redemption Agreement following the date of the Non-Redemption Agreement. The Additional Holders will be entitled to the registration rights set forth in that certain registration rights agreement, dated as of February 11, 2021 (as may be amended from time to time), among the Company’s sponsor, Social Leverage Acquisition Sponsor I LLC (the “Sponsor”), the Company and the certain other parties thereto, with respect to such shares of the Company’s Class A common stock issued to them.

The Additional Holders will have the option to terminate the Additional Non-Redemption Agreements on July 1, 2023, if and only if the Company or W3BCLOUD Holdings Inc. (“W3BCLOUD”) do not, by June 30, 2023, execute definitive agreements with respect to any private placement transactions, debt financings or other funding to the Company or W3BCLOUD in the form of equity or convertible or non-convertible debt, which together provide for an aggregate of at least $40 million in funding to the Company or W3BCLOUD.

The Company anticipates that one of the Additional Holders may make purchases of shares of the Company’s Class A common stock following execution of the Additional Non-Redemption Agreements. The Additional Non-Redemption Agreements are expected to increase the amount of funds that remain in the Company’s trust account following the meeting of the Company’s stockholders to approve the Business Combination. The Company may enter into additional non-redemption agreements from time to time and will disclose the execution of any such further non-redemption agreements once they have been entered into.

As previously disclosed, pursuant to that certain Sponsor Letter Agreement, dated as of July 31, 2022, and as amended on April 21, 2023, by and among SLAC, W3BCLOUD, the Sponsor and certain other persons named therein (the “Insiders”), 4,312,500 shares of SLAC’s Class B common stock currently held by the Sponsor shall be transferred (or otherwise forfeited and new shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, be issued by the Company) to non-redeeming stockholders of the Company, to certain investors in a potential PIPE financing in connection with the consummation of the proposed Business Combination with W3BCLOUD or for other purposes agreed to by the Sponsor, SLAC and W3BCLOUD (the “Incentive Shares”). Any Incentive Shares which are not so utilized in connection with non-redemption agreements, PIPE financings or for other purposes agreed to by the Sponsor, SLAC and W3BCLOUD will be surrendered by the Sponsor at the closing of the proposed Business Combination with W3BCLOUD without consideration.

The foregoing summary of the Additional Non-Redemption Agreements does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Form of Non-Redemption and Voting Agreement previously filed by the Company as Exhibit 10.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K dated April 21, 2023 and incorporated by reference herein and Form of Non-Redemption Agreement attached hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and incorporated by reference herein.
