This Current Report on Form 8-K, dated January 9, 2025, details amendments to existing financing agreements entered into by QT Imaging Holdings, Inc. (the "Company"). The filing addresses modifications to a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (SEPA) and associated promissory notes with YA II PN, Ltd. (the "Investor"), as well as a Secured Convertible Note with Funicular Funds, LP ("Cable Car").
Key Financial Metrics and Debt Obligations
The filing does not provide revenue, profit, cash flow, or margin data. It focuses exclusively on debt restructuring and equity conversion terms.

- Recent Conversions: The Investor converted $254,593 of principal into 384,059 shares at $0.6629/share and $259,589 of principal into 519,177 shares at $0.50/share.

Material Changes Versus Prior Period
The Company executed a "Third Omnibus Amendment" to the Financing Documents with YA II PN, Ltd. and an "Omnibus Amendment" to the Cable Car Note. Key changes include:
- Elimination of Monthly Payments: The Company's obligation to make monthly payments to the Investor (triggered by a prior event) has been removed effective the date of the Third Amendment.
- Conversion Price Adjustment: For $1.5 million of the Investor Note balance, the fixed conversion price was reduced to $0.584 per share. The remainder retains the original price of $4.61395 per share.
- Payment Structure Change: Future advances under the SEPA will be applied differently: the first advance proceeds will offset the Investor Note entirely; subsequent advances will be split 50/50 between direct payment to the Company and offsetting the Investor Note.
- Cable Car Note Terms: The conversion price was reduced to $0.584 per share, and the maturity was extended to March 31, 2026.
- Release of Claims: The Company released the Investor and its affiliates from all claims up to the date of the amendment.
Guidance, Risks, and Contingencies
The filing outlines specific risks and default triggers associated with the amended agreements:
- Automatic Event of Default: A new clause stipulates that an Event of Default occurs automatically if any creditor other than the Investor initiates foreclosure, seizure, or legal action to take control of Company assets. This triggers immediate due and payable status for all obligations under the Investor Note.
- Security Interests: The amendments confirm that all existing liens, security interests, and rights under the Financing Documents remain in full force and are not released or impaired.
- Rule 144 Provisions: The Cable Car Amendment includes provisions for the removal of restrictive legends on shares sold under Rule 144, subject to customary representations.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the current outstanding principal balance of the Investor Note ($8,340,411 as of Dec 2024) and accrued interest.
- Confirm the dilution impact of the $1.5 million tranche convertible at $0.584 versus the remainder at $4.61395.
- Assess the liquidity risk posed by the new "automatic default" clause triggered by third-party creditor actions.
- Review the total debt load including the $1.5 million Cable Car Note plus the $90,000 extension fee.
- Monitor future SEPA advances to determine how much cash will actually flow to the Company versus being used to offset debt.
