TABLE OF CONTENTS

The forward-looking statements contained in this prospectus are based on our current expectations and beliefs concerning future developments and their potential effects on our business. There can be no assurance that future developments affecting our business will be those that we have anticipated.

These risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to, those factors described in the section entitled "Risk Factors." Moreover, we operate in a very competitive and rapidly changing environment. New risks and uncertainties emerge from time to time and it is not possible for us to predict all such risk factors, nor can we assess the effect of all such risk factors on our business or the extent to which any factor or combination of factors may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should any of the assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements.
The forward-looking statements made by us in this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplement speak only as of the date of this prospectus and any accompanying prospectus supplements. Except to the extent required under the federal securities laws and rules and regulations of the SEC, we disclaim any obligation to update any forward-looking statement to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which the statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

PROSPECTUS SUMMARY
The following summary highlights selected information contained elsewhere in this prospectus and does not contain all of the information that you should consider in making your investment decision. Before investing in our securities, you should carefully read this entire prospectus, including our consolidated financial statements and the related notes and other documents incorporated by reference herein this prospectus and the information set forth under the headings "Risk Factors."
The Company
Momentus is a U.S. commercial space company that offers satellites, satellite buses, and other satellite components, transportation and infrastructure services, including hosted payloads and other in-orbit services to help enable the commercialization of space. Satellite operators are our principal customers and target customers. Momentus offers satellites and satellite buses and technology designed to meet the specific needs of government and commercials customers.
Products that we provide or plan to provide include satellites, satellite buses, solar arrays, and other satellite components. Our satellites and satellite technologies offer competitive advantages to customers such as greater payload capability, significant on-orbit power, flexibility of design and ability to accommodate a range of sensors, communications equipment, and other space instruments, low cost, and speed of delivery.
Our Tape Spring Solar Array ("TASSA") is an innovative solar array that Momentus is developing. It offers the potential to produce power at substantially lower cost than competing arrays. It also has important advantages from its ability to be deployed and retracted to protect the array from in-space collisions with debris and to more easily maneuver the satellite to different locations or adjust its characteristics.
Services that we provide or plan to provide include "last mile" satellite transportation, payload-hosting, on-orbit satellite refueling, on-orbit inspection, on-orbit satellite maintenance, de-orbiting, debris removal, and other satellite-to-satellite service offerings. We believe our planned service offerings will increase deployment options for satellite operators and lower their operating costs relative to traditional approaches while also minimizing environmental impact given our choice of water as a propellant.
We plan to provide these services with Orbital Service Vehicles ("OSVs") that we design and manufacture. While we plan to eventually operate a family of progressively larger and more capable OSVs, we are currently focused on the first vehicle of the family, Vigoride, which will primarily operate in low-earth orbit (LEO). We believe that Vigoride, has the ability to deliver fast, versatile, and cost-effective transportation and infrastructure services to our customers. We conducted our inaugural test and demonstration mission with Vigoride in 2022 as well as two additional test and demonstration missions during 2023. The Company plans to use technological milestones like completion of development of Block 2.2 configuration of the Vigoride OSV, MET propulsion, and TASSA in space, and experience gained in both satellite deployment and hosted payloads as standards to build new OSVs and explore commercial opportunities.
Our transportation service offering focuses on delivering our customers' satellites to precision orbits of their choosing. To accomplish this, we partner with leading launch service providers, such as SpaceX to "ride share" our customer's satellites from Earth to space on a midsized or large rocket. Customer satellites can also be carried aboard small launch vehicles for dedicated missions. Our OSVs would then provide "last mile" transportation services from the rocket's drop-off orbit to a custom orbit of the satellite operator's choosing. We believe this "hub-and-spoke" model has the potential to expand our customers' deployment options relative to what they would be able to achieve with ride share launch alone, while reducing their costs relative to what they could achieve with a dedicated small launch vehicle. Over time, we plan to begin introducing additional services beyond transportation.
Our OSVs will initially be expendable, meaning they will be used to perform services before they de-orbit themselves upon completion of their first mission. However, our goal is to eventually make our OSVs reusable, or capable of remaining in space to conduct follow-on missions, which has the potential to lower our cost to deliver services to our customers. To achieve reusability, we need to develop additional technologies that will allow our vehicles to locate and navigate to customer satellites in space, physically connect to them, and perform a variety of robotic operations including fluid transfer.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

We are also offering variants of our Vigoride OSV to government and commercial customers as a traditional bus manufacture and satellite prime contractor. Vigoride, and its variants, M-500 and M-1000, are being offered to provide payload technology demonstrations as well as forming the space infrastructure backbone for constellations of satellites.
Momentus offers or plans to offer production and operation of small satellites to meet a range of defense, government, and commercial needs such as communications, tracking of missiles, remote sensing, and space domain awareness. There is a growing need for such capabilities for defense, government, and commercial customers. Technologies used to support the Hosted Payload market are directly applicable to offering customer-owned satellites for use in constellations. Momentus is offering high-volume production of busses, based on Vigoride's technologies, and integrating customer's unique payloads for a variety of missions ranging from communications to Earth Observation. This market heavily leverages prior investments in satellite technology to access a large and growing market segment. We introduced variants of Vigoride tailored specifically for constellation applications as M-500 and M-1000 in August 2023.
For a further description of the risks associated with our business, see "Risk Factors." Investors are cautioned to review the following description of Momentus' business together with the entirety of this prospectus, including the within-mentioned risk factors.
Corporate Information
We were incorporated in the State of Delaware in May 2019 as a special purpose acquisition company under the name Stable Road Acquisition Corp. On November 13, 2019, we completed our initial public offering. On August 12, 2021, we consummated the Business Combination with Legacy Momentus pursuant to the Merger Agreement. In connection with the Business Combination, we changed our name from Stable Road Acquisition Corp. to Momentus Inc.
Our principal executive offices are located at 3901 N. First Street, San Jose, CA 95134. Our telephone number is (650) 564-7820. Our website address is www.momentus.space. Information contained on our website or connected thereto does not constitute part of, and is not incorporated by reference into, this prospectus or the registration statement of which it forms a part.
Momentus, the Momentus logo and our other registered or common law trademarks, service marks or trade names appearing in this prospectus are the property of Momentus. Other trademarks, service marks and trade names used in this prospectus are the property of their respective owners.
Private Placement
On September 15, 2024, in connection with a private placement of securities (the "Initial Private Placement"), we entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Investor, pursuant to which we agreed to (i) sell and issue to such stockholder pre-funded warrants (the "Pre-Funded Warrants") to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock, at a purchase price of $0.55 per Pre-Funded Warrant less the exercise price per Pre-Funded Warrant, (ii) Class A warrants to purchase 10,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Initial Class A Warrants"), and (iii) Class B warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Class B Warrants" and together with the Initial Class A Warrants, collectively, the "Initial Investor Warrants").
The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Warrant equals the price per share at which shares of our Common Stock are being sold in the Initial Private Placement minus $0.00001, and the exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant equals $0.00001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and will not expire until exercised in full. The Initial Investor Warrants have an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to $0.575 per share. The Initial Class A Warrants will expire March 17, 2030, and the Class B Warrants will expire March 17, 2026. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Initial Investor Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock. The Investor may not exercise the Initial Investor Warrants until the date that is 6 months after the original issuance date of the Initial Investor Warrants.
In connection with the Initial Private Placement, on September 15, 2024, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with the Placement Agent. As part of its compensation for acting as Placement Agent for the Initial Private Placement, the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds and also agreed to issue to the Placement Agent warrants to purchase 500,000 shares of Common Stock (the
2

TABLE OF CONTENTS

"Placement Agent Warrants") at an exercise price of $0.6325, which are exercisable immediately. One half of the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of eighteen months from September 15, 2024, and the other half of the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of five years from September 15, 2024.
The Initial Private Placement closed with aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of approximately $2.75 million, before deducting estimated placement agent commissions and expenses in connection with the Initial Private Placement.
In connection with the Initial Private Placement, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement with the Investor (the "Registration Rights Agreement"). The Registration Rights Agreement provides that the Company shall file a registration statement covering the resale of all of the Registrable Securities (as defined in the Registration Rights Agreement) with the SEC no later than the 30th calendar day following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, and have the registration statement declared effective by the SEC as promptly as practicable after the filing thereof, but in any event no later than 45th calendar day following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement, or in the event of a "full review" by the SEC, the 90th day following the date of the Registration Rights Agreement.
On October 28, 2024, in connection with a subsequent private placement transaction, we agreed to sell and issue to the Investor additional Class A Warrants to purchase 5,000,000 shares of Common Stock (the "Subsequent Class A Warrants" and together with the Initial Investors Warrants, collectively, the "Investor Warrants"). The Subsequent Class A Warrants contain substantially identical terms as the Initial Class A Warrants.
Implications of Being an Emerging Growth Company
As a company with less than $1.235 billion in revenues during our last completed fiscal year, we qualify as an "emerging growth company" as defined in the Jumpstart Our Business Startups Act of 2012, or the JOBS Act. An emerging growth company may take advantage of specified reduced reporting requirements that are otherwise applicable generally to public companies. These reduced reporting requirements include, but are not limited to:
an exemption from compliance with the auditor attestation requirement on the effectiveness of our internal control over financial reporting;
an exemption from compliance with any requirement that the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board may adopt regarding a supplement to the auditor's report providing additional information about the audit and the financial statements;
reduced disclosure about our executive compensation arrangements; and
an exemption from the requirements to obtain a non-binding advisory vote on executive compensation or a stockholder approval of any golden parachute arrangements.
We may choose to take advantage of some, but not all, of the available benefits under the JOBS Act. Accordingly, the information contained herein may be different from the information you receive from other public companies in which you hold stock. Further, pursuant to Section 107 of the JOBS Act, as an emerging growth company, we have elected to use the extended transition period for complying with new or revised accounting standards until those standards would otherwise apply to private companies. As a result, our consolidated financial statements may not be comparable to the financial statements of issuers who are required to comply with the effective dates for new or revised accounting standards that are applicable to public companies, which may make our Common Stock less attractive to investors.
We will remain an emerging growth company until the earlier of (1) the last day of the fiscal year (a) following November 13, 2024, (b) in which we have total annual gross revenue of at least $1.235 billion, or (c) in which we are deemed to be a large accelerated filer, which means the market value of our Common Stock that is held by non-affiliates exceeds $700 million as of the last business day of our most recently completed second fiscal quarter, and (2) the date on which we have issued more than $1.0 billion in non-convertible debt securities during the prior three-year period.

RISK FACTORS
Investing in our common stock involves a high degree of risk. Prior to making a decision about investing in our common stock, you should consider carefully the specific risk factors discussed under the heading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on June 6, 2024, which is incorporated by reference into this prospectus in its entirety, as well as any amendment or updates to our risk factors reflected in subsequent filings with the SEC, including Form 10-K/A filed on September 16, 2024 and any prospectus supplement hereto or any related free writing prospectus.

TABLE OF CONTENTS

SELLING STOCKHOLDERS
This prospectus covers the resale or other disposition by the Selling Stockholders identified in the table below of the Warrant Shares, consisting of up to an aggregate of 25,500,000 shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrant Shares. The Selling Stockholders acquired the Warrant Shares in the transaction described above under the heading "Prospectus Summary-Private Placement."
The Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the Initial Private Placement provide that the Investor will not have the right to exercise any portion of its Pre-Funded Warrants if such exercise would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the Company's securities beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the combined voting power of all of the Company's securities then outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Pre-Funded Warrants.
The Investor Warrants to be issued in the Private Placement provide that the Investor will not have the right to exercise any portion of the Investor Warrants if such exercise would cause (i) the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, or (ii) the combined voting power of the Company's securities beneficially owned by the Investor (together with its affiliates) to exceed 4.99% (or, at the election of the purchaser, 9.99%) of the combined voting power of all of the Company's securities then outstanding immediately after giving effect to the exercise, as such percentage ownership is determined in accordance with the terms of the Investor Warrants.
The table below sets forth, as of October 29, 2024, the following information regarding the Selling Stockholders:
Name of the Selling Stockholders;
Number of Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders prior to the Private Placement; and
Number of Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders after the Private Placement;
The number of shares owned are those beneficially owned, as determined under the rules of the SEC, and the information is not necessarily indicative of beneficial ownership for any other purpose.
All information with respect to the Common Stock ownership of the Selling Stockholders has been furnished by or on behalf of the Selling Stockholders. We believe, based on information supplied by the Selling Stockholders, that except as may otherwise be indicated in the footnotes to the table below, the Selling Stockholders have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the shares of Common Stock reported as beneficially owned by the Selling Stockholders. Because the Selling Stockholders identified in the table may sell some or all of the shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by them and covered by this prospectus, and because there are currently no agreement, arrangements, or understanding with respect to the sale of any of the shares of Common Stock, no estimate can be given as to the number of shares of Common Stock available for resale hereby that will be held by the Selling Stockholders upon termination of this offering. In addition, the Selling Stockholders may have sold, transferred or otherwise disposed of, or may sell, transfer or otherwise dispose of, at any time from time to time, the shares of Common Stock they beneficially own in transactions exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act after the date on which it provided the information set forth in the table below. We have, therefore, assumed for the purposes of the following table, that the Selling Stockholders will sell all of their respective shares of Common Stock owned beneficially by them that are covered by this prospectus, but will not sell any other shares of Common Stock that they presently own. Except as set forth below, the Selling Stockholders have not held any position or office, or has otherwise had a material relationship, with us or any of our subsidiaries within the past three ears other than as a result of the ownership of our shares of Common Stock or other securities.

The warrants are subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 4.99% (or, at the election of the applicable Selling Stockholder, 9.99%), which such limitation restricts the Selling Stockholders from exercising that portion of the warrants that would result in the Selling Stockholders and their respective affiliates owning, after exercise, a number of shares of Common Stock in excess of the beneficial ownership limitation.

PLAN OF DISTRIBUTION
The Selling Stockholders and any of their pledgees, assignees and successors-in-interest may, from time to time, sell any or all of their securities covered hereby on Nasdaq or any other stock exchange, market or trading facility on which the securities are traded or in private transactions. These sales may be at fixed or negotiated prices. The Selling Stockholders may use any one or more of the following methods when selling securities:
ordinary brokerage transactions and transactions in which the broker-dealer solicits purchasers;
block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell the securities as agent but may position and resell a portion of the block as principal to facilitate the transaction;
purchases by a broker-dealer as principal and resale by the broker-dealer for its account;
an exchange distribution in accordance with the rules of the applicable exchange;
privately negotiated transactions;
settlement of short sales;
in transactions through broker-dealers that agree with the Selling Stockholders to sell a specified number of such securities at a stipulated price per security;
through the writing or settlement of options or other hedging transactions, whether through an options exchange or otherwise;
a combination of any such methods of sale; or
any other method permitted pursuant to applicable law.
The Selling Stockholders may also sell securities under Rule 144 or any other exemption from registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), if available, rather than under this prospectus.
Broker-dealers engaged by the Selling Stockholders may arrange for other brokers-dealers to participate in sales. Broker-dealers may receive commissions or discounts from the Selling Stockholders (or, if any broker-dealer acts as agent for the purchaser of securities, from the purchaser) in amounts to be negotiated, but, except as set forth in a supplement to this Prospectus, in the case of an agency transaction not in excess of a customary brokerage commission in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121; and in the case of a principal transaction a markup or markdown in compliance with FINRA Rule 2121.
In connection with the sale of the securities or interests therein, the Selling Stockholders may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers or other financial institutions, which may in turn engage in short sales of the securities in the course of hedging the positions they assume. The Selling Stockholders 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 Stockholders 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 securities offered by this prospectus, which securities such broker-dealer or other financial institution may resell pursuant to this prospectus (as supplemented or amended to reflect such transaction).
The Selling Stockholders and any broker-dealers or agents that are involved in selling the securities may be deemed to be "underwriters" within the meaning of the Securities Act in connection with such sales. In such event, any commissions received by such broker-dealers or agents and any profit on the resale of the securities purchased by them may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. The Selling Stockholders have informed the Company that they do not have any written or oral agreement or understanding, directly or indirectly, with any person to distribute the securities.
The Company is required to pay certain fees and expenses incurred by the Company incident to the registration of the securities. The Company has agreed to indemnify the Selling Stockholders against certain losses, claims, damages and liabilities.
We agreed to keep this prospectus effective until the earlier of (i) the date on which the securities may be resold by the Selling Stockholders without registration and without regard to any volume or manner-of-sale limitations by reason of Rule 144, without the requirement for the Company to be in compliance with the current public information

Item 14.
Indemnification of Directors and Officers.
Section 145 of the Delaware General Corporation Law (the "DGCL") provides that a corporation may indemnify directors and officers as well as other employees and individuals against expenses (including attorneys' fees), judgments, fines and amounts paid in settlement actually and reasonably incurred by such person in connection with any threatened, pending or completed actions, suits or proceedings in which such person is made a party by reason of such person being or having been a director, officer, employee or agent of the corporation, or is or was serving at the request of the corporation as a director, officer, employee or agent of another corporation, partnership, joint venture, trust or other enterprise. The DGCL provides that Section 145 is not exclusive of other rights to which those seeking indemnification may be entitled under any bylaws, agreement, vote of stockholders or disinterested directors or otherwise. The registrant's Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, and Amended and Restated Bylaws, as amended, provide for indemnification by the registrant of its directors and officers to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.
Section 102(b)(7) of the DGCL permits a corporation to provide in its certificate of incorporation that a director of the corporation shall not be personally liable to the corporation or its stockholders for monetary damages for breach of fiduciary duty as a director, except for liability (1) for any breach of the director's duty of loyalty to the corporation or its stockholders, (2) for acts or omissions not in good faith or which involve intentional misconduct or a knowing violation of law, (3) for unlawful payments of dividends or unlawful stock repurchases, redemptions or other distributions or (4) for any transaction from which the director derived an improper personal benefit. The registrant's Second Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, provides for such limitation of liability to the fullest extent permitted by the DGCL.
The registrant has entered into, and expects to continue to enter into, indemnification agreements with each of its directors and executive officers. These agreements provide that the registrant will indemnify each of its directors and such officers to the fullest extent permitted by law.
Any underwriting agreement or distribution agreement that the registrant enters into with any underwriters or agents involved in the offering or sale of any securities registered hereby may require such underwriters or dealers to indemnify the registrant, some or all of its directors and officers and its controlling persons, if any, for specified liabilities, which may include liabilities under the Securities Act.
The registrant also maintains standard policies of insurance under which coverage is provided to its directors and officers against loss arising from claims made by reason of breach of duty or other wrongful act, while acting in their capacity as directors and officers of the registrant.

forfeitable in the event of early termination by the Company. The shares had an issuance date fair value of $0.1 million to be recorded as consulting expense over the six-month term of the agreement. Related consulting expense of $0.1 million was recognized over the six-month term of the agreement. The Company issued no shares to non-employees during the nine months and year ended September 30, 2024 and December 31, 2023, respectively.
Private Placement:
On September 15, 2024, the Company engaged in the Initial Private Placement, pursuant to which the Company entered into the Purchase Agreement with the Investor, and agreed to (i) sell and issue to such stockholder the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Initial Class A Warrants and the Class B Warrants.
The purchase price of each Pre-Funded Warrant equals the price per share at which shares of our Common Stock are being sold in the Initial Private Placement minus $0.00001, and the exercise price of each Pre-Funded Warrant equals $0.00001 per share. The Pre-Funded Warrants are exercisable at any time after their original issuance and will not expire until exercised in full. The Initial Investor Warrants have an exercise price per share of Common Stock equal to $0.575 per share. The Initial Class A Warrants will expire March 17, 2030, and the Class B Warrants will expire March 17, 2026. The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Initial Investor Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock. The Investor may not exercise the Initial Investor Warrants until the date that is 6 months after the original issuance date of the Initial Investor Warrants.
In connection with the Initial Private Placement, on September 15, 2024, the Company entered into a Placement Agency Agreement with the Placement Agent. As part of its compensation for acting as Placement Agent for the Initial Private Placement, the Company paid the Placement Agent a cash fee of 7.0% of the aggregate gross proceeds and also agreed to issue to the Placement Agent Warrants at an exercise price of $0.6325, which are exercisable immediately. One half of the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of eighteen months from September 15, 2024, and the other half of the Placement Agent Warrants have a term of five years from September 15, 2024.
Secured Convertible Promissory Notes with Space Infrastructure Ventures, LLC and Related Transactions:
On July 12, 2024, the Company and Space Infrastructures Ventures, LLC ("SIV") a firm that invests in disruptive high-tech/space-tech ventures, entered into a secured convertible promissory note (the "Initial Convertible Note") pursuant to which Momentus may borrow up to $2.3 million prior to September 1, 2024, consisting of (i) an initial loan in the principal amount of $500,000 which may be borrowed on or after July 17, 2024, and (ii) one or more subsequent loans totaling up to $1.8 million in aggregate principal amount which may be borrowed on or after August 7, 2024, with the $1.8 million subject to certain conditions including the availability of financing to SIV. Borrowings under the Initial Convertible Note bear interest at 15% per annum. Principal on the Initial Convertible Note is to be re-paid in four equal payments on a quarterly basis, commencing on December 1, 2024, and the Initial Convertible Note has a maturity date of September 1, 2025, at which time all accrued interest is due. As of September 30, 2024, all amounts available under the Initial Convertible Note have been borrowed by the Company.
Amounts borrowed under the Initial Convertible Note are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company. In lieu of cash payments of accrued interest, SIV, in its sole discretion, may elect to receive shares of Momentus Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.53 per share (the "Conversion Price"). On the maturity date, subject to the satisfaction of applicable legal and regulatory conditions, all outstanding obligations under the Initial Convertible Note automatically convert into Common Stock at the Conversion Price. The proceeds of the Initial Convertible Note are to be used solely for the following purposes: (a) to fund day-to-day working capital needs in the order course of business, consistent with Momentus practices prior to the execution of the Initial Convertible Note, (b) for general purposes in the ordinary course of business, consistent with Momentus practices prior to the execution of the Initial Convertible Note, and (c) to repay secured indebtedness owed to certain directors and officers of Momentus.
On October 24, 2024, the Company and SIV entered into a secured convertible promissory note (the "Subsequent Convertible Note") pursuant to which Momentus may borrow up to $3.0 million in two tranches, consisting of (i) an initial loan in the principal amount of $2 million, and (ii) up to an additional $1 million in principal amount which may be borrowed from December 22, 2024 through February 14, 2025. Borrowings under the Subsequent Convertible Note bear interest at 15% per annum. The Subsequent Convertible Note has a maturity date of October 24, 2025, at which time all principal and accrued interest is due. Amounts borrowed under the Subsequent Convertible Note are secured by a lien on substantially all of the assets of the Company.
II-2

TABLE OF CONTENTS

At any time after the date that is six months after the original issuance date of the Subsequent Convertible Note, SIV may convert some or all of the outstanding obligations under the Convertible Note into shares of Common Stock at a conversion price of $0.5292 per share. The conversion price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Subsequent Convertible Note is subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock.
In addition to the Subsequent Convertible Note, the Company agreed to issue to SIV warrants to purchase up to 5,668,934 shares of Common Stock with an exercise price of $0.5292 per share (the "SIV Warrants"). The exercise price and the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the SIV Warrants is subject to appropriate adjustments in the event of certain stock dividends and distributions, stock splits, stock combinations, reclassifications or similar events affecting the Common Stock. SIV may not exercise the SIV Warrants prior to April 24, 2025, and the SIV Warrants will expire April 24, 2029.
Neither the Subsequent Convertible Note nor the SIV Warrants can be converted or exercised if it would cause the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock beneficially owned by SIV (together with its affiliates) to exceed 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to the conversion or exercise, as applicable. By written notice, SIV may, with the agreement of the Company, from time to time increase or decrease this ownership limitation to any other percentage.
The proceeds of the Subsequent Convertible Note are to be used solely to fund day-to-day working capital needs in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices, and for general purposes in the ordinary course of business, consistent with past practices. The Subsequent Convertible Note requires SIV's consent to take certain actions, such as purchasing assets outside the ordinary course of business, extending financing, making capital expenditures in excess of $100,000, repaying debts outside the ordinary course of business or investing in any entity or enterprise.

Item 17.
Undertakings.
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes to
(a)
Provide to the underwriters at the closing specified in the underwriting agreement certificates in such denominations and registered in such names as required by the underwriters to permit prompt delivery to each purchaser.
(b)
To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this registration statement:
(i)
To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933;
(ii)
To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the registration statement (or the most recent post-effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the registration statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; and

(iii)
To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the registration statement or any material change to such information in the registration statement, provided, however, that paragraphs (b)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post-effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the registrant pursuant to section 13 or section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (15 U.S.C. 78m or 78o(d)) that are incorporated by reference in the registration statement.
(c)
That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(d)
To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering.
(e)
For the purpose of determining liability under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser, each prospectus filed pursuant to Rule 424(b) as part of a registration statement relating to an offering, other than registration statements relying on Rule 430B or other than prospectuses filed in reliance on Rule 430A (§230.430A of this chapter), shall be deemed to be part of and included in the registration statement as of the date it is first used after effectiveness. Provided, however, that no statement made in a registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement or made in a document incorporated or deemed incorporated by reference into the registration statement or prospectus that is part of the registration statement will, as to a purchaser with a time of contract of sale prior to such first use, supersede or modify any statement that was made in the registration statement or prospectus that was part of the registration statement or made in any such document immediately prior to such date of first use.
(f)
That for the purpose of determining liability of the registrant under the Securities Act of 1933 to any purchaser in the initial distribution of the securities, the undersigned registrant undertakes that in a primary offering of securities of the undersigned registrant pursuant to this registration statement, regardless of the underwriting method used to sell the securities to the purchaser, if the securities are offered or sold to such purchaser by means of any of the following communications, the undersigned registrant will be a seller to the purchaser and will be considered to offer or sell such securities to such purchaser:
(i)
Any preliminary prospectus or prospectus of the undersigned registrant relating to the offering required to be filed pursuant to Rule 424;
(ii)
Any free writing prospectus relating to the offering prepared by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant or used or referred to by the undersigned registrant;
(iii)
The portion of any other free writing prospectus relating to the offering containing material information about the undersigned registrant or its securities provided by or on behalf of the undersigned registrant; and
(iv)
Any other communication that is an offer in the offering made by the undersigned registrant to the purchaser.
(g)
The undersigned registrant hereby undertakes that, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act, each filing of the registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act) that is incorporated by reference in the registration statement shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
(h)
Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the registrant pursuant to the foregoing provisions, or otherwise, the registrant has been advised that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the registrant of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the registrant in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being

registered, the registrant will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Securities Act of 1933 and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue.
(i)
That:
(1)
For purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, the information omitted from the form of prospectus filed as part of this registration statement in reliance upon Rule 430A and contained in a form of prospectus filed by the registrant pursuant to Rule 424(b)(1) or (4) or 497(h) under the Securities Act shall be deemed to be part of this registration statement as of the time it was declared effective.
(2)
For the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each post-effective amendment that contains a form of prospectus shall be deemed to be a new registration statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof.
