Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On February 17, 2023, Stratim Cloud Acquisition Corp. (the "Company") entered
into a Convertible Promissory Note (the "Working Capital Loan") with its
sponsor, Stratim Cloud Acquisition, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company
(the "Sponsor"). Pursuant to the Working Capital Loan, the Sponsor has agreed
that, if, at the Company's special meeting of stockholders to be held on or
about March 10, 2023, the proposals to amend (such amendments, the "Amendments")
the Company's Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation (the "Charter")
to (1) extend the date by which the Company must consummate an initial business
combination from March 16, 2023, to September 16, 2023, or such earlier date as
determined by the Board of Directors of the Company (the "Extended Date"), and
(2) eliminate from the Charter the limitation that the Company may not redeem
public shares to the extent such redemption would cause the Company to have net
tangible assets of less than $5,000,001 are approved, the Sponsor will
contribute to the Company as a loan (each loan being referred to herein as a
"Contribution") the lesser of (A) $0.04 for each share of Class A common stock,
par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company ("Class A Common Stock") that is not
redeemed in connection with the stockholder vote to approve the Amendments and
(B) $300,000.00, for each month (or a pro rata portion thereof if less than a
month) until the earlier of (i) the date of the special meeting held in
connection with the stockholder vote to approve the Company's initial business
combination and (ii) the Extended Date. The Sponsor will not make any
Contributions unless the Amendments are approved and implemented. Up to $1.5
million of the loans may be settled in whole warrants to purchase shares of
Class A Common Stock at a conversion price equal to $1.50 per warrant. The
Contribution(s) will not bear any interest, and will be repayable by the Company
to the Sponsor upon the earlier of the date by which the Company must complete
an initial business combination and the consummation of the Company's initial
business combination. The Company's board of directors will have the sole
discretion whether to continue extending for up to six months, and if the
Company's board of directors determines not to continue extending for additional
months, the Sponsor's obligation to make additional Contributions will
terminate. If this occurs, the Company would wind up the Company's affairs and
redeem 100% of the outstanding public shares in accordance with the procedures
set forth in the Company's certificate of incorporation. Monthly deposits into
the Company's trust account following approval and implementation of the
Amendments will be based on the number of public shares still outstanding
following such implementation.
The foregoing description of the Working Capital Loan does not purport to be
complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the
Working Capital Loan, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and
incorporated herein by reference.

maturity date of the Working Capital Loan may be accelerated upon the occurrence
of an Event of Default (as defined therein). Any outstanding principal under the
Working Capital Loan may be prepaid at any time by the Company, at its election
and without penalty, provided, however, that the Sponsor shall have a right to

Capital Loan upon notice of such prepayment.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.
The information disclosed under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is

except that, so long as they are held by the Sponsor or its permitted
transferees: (1) they will not be redeemable by the Company, subject to certain
exceptions; (2) they (including the Class A Common Stock issuable upon exercise
of such warrants) may not, subject to certain limited exceptions, be
transferred, assigned or sold by the Sponsor until 30 days after the completion
of the Company's initial business combination; (3) they may be exercised by the
holders on a cashless basis; and (4) they (including the Class A Common Stock
issuable upon exercise of such warrants) are entitled to registration rights.
Such warrants expire at 5:00 p.m., New York City time, five years after the
completion of the Company's initial business combination, or earlier upon
redemption or liquidation.
