Note 12 Commitments and Contingencies

Litigation and Other Legal Matters

From time to time, the Company is subject to claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business, such as contractual disputes and employment matters. The Company is also subject to regulatory and governmental examinations, information requests and subpoenas, inquiries, investigations, and threatened legal actions and proceedings. The Company records accruals for losses that are probable and reasonably estimable. These accruals are based on a variety of factors such as judgment, probability of loss, and opinions of internal and external legal counsel. Legal costs in connection with claims and lawsuits in the ordinary course of business are expensed as incurred.

Class Action

In February 2023, a putative class action complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York (the “Court”), Case No. 1:23-cv-01394. The litigation was instituted by Jeffrey Mullen on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated. In July 2023, an amended complaint was filed by Jeffrey Mullen, Robert Irwin, Justin Carnahan and Thomas Bennett, each on behalf of himself and all others similarly situated, naming the Company, its Chief Executive Officer, and the members of Legacy Terran Orbital’s Board of Directors as defendants. The amended class action complaint (as amended, the “Complaint”) asserts claims for violations of Section 11(A) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1933 and Section 158 of the Delaware General Corporation Law, and breach of fiduciary duties, resulting from the Company’s alleged failure to timely transfer shares of common stock to current and former employee shareholders after the consummation of the Tailwind Two Merger and alleges materially false and misleading statements made in the Company’s Form S-4 Registration Statement and Proxy Prospectus primarily relating to the process for exchanging shares in connection with the Tailwind Two Merger. The Complaint seeks an award of damages, an award of reasonable costs and expenses at trial, including counsel and expert fees, and an award of such other relief as deemed appropriate by the Court. The Company intends to defend this action vigorously.

Commercial Agreements

In connection with the Tailwind Two Merger, the Company entered into commercial agreements to purchase an aggregate amount of $20 million of goods and services over three years from two affiliates of a PIPE investor, which became effective upon the closing of the Tailwind Two Merger. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $13.3 million of the purchase obligations remained outstanding under these commercial agreements.

In 2022, the Company entered into a purchase obligation of $22.4 million for the procurement of components related to a customer program. As of June 30, 2023, approximately $9.0 million of the purchase obligation remained outstanding.
