Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement

On August 5, 2025, Sonder Holdings Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Note and Warrant Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement"), with certain qualified institutional buyers or accredited investors (each a "Purchaser" and, collectively, the "Purchasers"), certain of whom are holders of shares of the Company's Series A Preferred Stock, whereby the Company issued and sold $24.540 million of units (the "Units"), each comprised of (i) a senior secured promissory note (the "Investor Notes") and (ii) a warrant to purchase shares of the Company's common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Common Stock") at an exercise price of $1.50 per share (the "Warrants," the shares underlying the Warrants, the "Warrant Shares", and the offering of the Units, the "Financing").

The Investor Notes mature on July 4, 2026 and accrue interest on the unpaid principal amount at a rate of 15.0% per annum, payable in kind quarterly in arrears. The Investor Notes are subject to mandatory redemption upon the occurrence of change of control events, certain asset sales and excess cash flow amounts, subject to certain exceptions. The Investor Notes are guaranteed by the Company's domestic subsidiaries and are secured by substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries on a pari passu basis and rank pari passu in right of payment with the Lender Notes (defined below). The Investor Notes and related liens will rank senior in right of payment and lien priority to the 2021 Notes (defined below). The Company may use the proceeds of the Investor Notes for working capital and general corporate purposes.

The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and affirmative and negative covenants of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries, including, among other restrictions and subject to certain exceptions, limitations on the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, dispose of assets, make certain restricted payments, enter into affiliate transactions, make capital expenditures, and make investments.

The Investor Notes also include customary events of default, including, among others, payment defaults, material breach of representations and warranties, breach of covenants, cross-default to other indebtedness, judgment defaults and bankruptcy and insolvency defaults, as well as an event of default if the Company fails to raise gross proceeds of at least $32.5 million from capital sources by November 15, 2025. The occurrence of an event of default could result in the acceleration of the Company's obligations under the Investor Notes, an increase in the rate of interest and the Purchasers' exercise of certain other rights and remedies provided for under the Investor Notes, the other transaction documents and applicable law.

The Purchase Agreement requires the Company to include proposals in a preliminary proxy statement on Schedule 14A filed no later than December 15, 2025, with a definitive proxy including such proposal distributed as soon as practicable, for the purpose of obtaining stockholder approval of (i) the issuance of the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Warrants as required by Rule 5635 of The Nasdaq Stock Market LLC ("Nasdaq" and, such proposal, the "Nasdaq Proposal") and (ii) an amendment to the Company's certificate of incorporation to increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock to allow for the issuance of the Warrant Shares (the "Authorized Share Proposal" and such approvals for the Nasdaq Proposal and the Authorized Share Proposal collectively, the "Stockholder Approval").
