| Item 2.03 | Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant. |
On August 5, 2024, $100,000 (the “Extension Payment”) was deposited into the trust account of Fortune Rise Acquisition Corporation, a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), for the public shareholders, representing $0.032 per public share, which enables the Company to extend the period of time it has to consummate its initial business combination by one month from August 5, 2024 to September 5, 2024 (the “Extension”). The Extension is the tenth of the twelve one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents, as amended in October 2023.
In connection with the Extension Payment, the Company issued an unsecured promissory note (the “Note”) to Water On Demand, Inc., a Nevada corporation and the entity which controls the Company’s sponsor.
The Note is non-interest bearing and payable (subject to the waiver against trust provisions) on the earlier of (i) consummation of the Company’s initial business combination and (ii) the date of the liquidation of the Company. The principal balance may be prepaid at any time, at the election of the Company. The holder of the Note has the right, but not the obligation, to convert its Note, in whole or in part, into private shares of the Class A common stock (the “Conversion Shares”) of the Company, as described in the prospectus of the Company (File Number 333-256511). The number of Conversion Shares to be received by the holder in connection with such conversion shall be an amount determined by dividing (x) the sum of the outstanding principal amount payable to such holder by (y) $10.00.
A copy of the Note is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The disclosures set forth in this Item 2.03 are intended to be summaries only and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Note.
| Item 3.02 | Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities. |

| Item 7.01 | Regulation FD Disclosure. |
On August 7, 2024, the Company issued a press release announcing that the Extension Payment had been made, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 99.1.
The furnishing of the press release is not an admission as to the materiality of any information therein. The information contained in the press release is summary information that is intended to be considered in the context of more complete information included in the Company’s filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) and other public announcements that the Company has made and may make from time to time by press release or otherwise.

Exhibit 99.1
Fortune Rise Acquisition Corporation Receives August Monthly Extension From Sponsor Affiliate
to Complete its Initial Business Combination
August 7, 2024 | CLEARWATER, FL – Fortune Rise Acquisition Corporation (Nasdaq: FRLA) (“FRLA” or the “Company”) today announced that Water On Demand Inc., a privately-held subsidiary of OriginClear, Inc. (OTC: Other: OCLN) (“OCLN”) and owner of its sponsor, Fortune Rise Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”), has deposited the required $100,000 (representing an additional $0.032 per public share) into the Company’s trust account for the benefit of its valued public stockholders which provides a one-month extension to complete the Company’s initial business combination. This additional contribution extends the date by which the Company has to complete its initial business combination for an additional one-month extension from August 5, 2024 to September 5, 2024. The extension is the tenth of the twelve one-month extensions permitted under the Company’s governing documents, as amended in October 2023.
Such contribution effectively increases the pro rata portion of the funds available in the Company’s trust account in the event of the consummation of an initial business combination, liquidation, or other redemption event, by $0.032 per share. The contribution was funded as a non-interest bearing loan that will either be paid upon earlier of consummation of an initial business combination or the Company’s liquidation.
Ryan Spick, CFO of FRLA, stated, “OriginClear’s subsidiary, Water On Demand, Inc., which owns the Sponsor, has made the required deposit for the benefit of the stockholders of Fortune Rise Acquisition Corporation which provides a one-month extension to complete our initial business combination. These funds provide for an additional one-month extension which gives us additional time to advance our business combination efforts. Once the business combination is complete, we remain committed to building the next great technology company and generating significant shareholder value.”
About Fortune Rise Acquisition Corporation
FRLA is a blank check company incorporated in February 2021 as a Delaware corporation formed for the purpose of effecting a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition, stock purchase, reorganization or similar business combination with one or more businesses.
FRLA is a “shell company” as defined under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, because it has no operations and nominal assets consisting almost entirely of cash. FRLA will not generate any operating revenues until after the completion of its initial business combination, at the earliest. To date, FRLA’s efforts have been limited to organizational activities and activities related to its initial public offering as well as the search for a prospective business combination target.
