LeddarTech Holdings Inc.&nbsp;(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LDTC#NASDAQ">LDTC</a>) shares are rocketing on Monday after the company announced a collaboration with Texas Instruments Incorporated (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TXN#NASDAQ">TXN</a>).
The partnership includes a software license agreement, where TI will make advanced royalty payments to support the joint commercialization of an integrated platform solution for advanced driver assistance systems <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/12/g42386915/leddartech-announces-collaboration-with-texas-instruments-for-advanced-driver-assistance-systems-a" rel="noreferrer noopener">(ADAS) and autonomous driving (AD) markets.</a>
Under the license arrangement, Texas Instruments has agreed to make advanced royalty payments to catalyze joint commercialization.
The collaboration will allow TI to offer a bundled solution featuring LeddarTech&#8217;s LeddarVision AI-based sensor fusion and perception software, pre-integrated and validated on TI&#8217;s TDA scalable portfolio of Arm-based processors.
After nearly two years of collaboration, the integrated solution provides an open, high-performance, and cost-efficient platform for ADAS and autonomous driving systems, catering to automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers.
LeddarTech and TI have developed a roadmap of ADAS and AD features, with LeddarVision already running on TI&#8217;s TDA4 processors.
The integrated solution has received positive feedback from automotive OEMs and Tier 1 suppliers regarding its specifications and performance.
Frantz Saintellemy, President and CEO of LeddarTech, said, &#8220;This agreement with Texas Instruments and their commitment to making advanced royalty payments is a major market validation of LeddarVision and the potential to achieve significant near-term automotive ADAS market success.&#8221;
In a separate release, LeddarTech secured a deferral of interest payments, contingent on receiving at least $35 million in equity investments or the first TI royalty installment.
The minimum cash balance covenant is suspended until December 13, 2024, then set at C$1 million until January 31, 2025, rising to C$5 million thereafter.
The bridge loan maturity is extended to December 13, 2024, with an automatic extension to January 31, 2025, upon receiving the first royalty installment.
Price Action: LDDC shares are up 290.1% at $1.21 at the last check Monday.

<h3>Exploring the Significance of Insider Trading</h3>
While insider transactions should not be the sole basis for making investment decisions, they can play a significant role in an investor's decision-making process.
From a legal standpoint, the term "insider" pertains to any officer, director, or beneficial owner holding more than ten percent of a company's equity securities as outlined in Section 12 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. This encompasses executives in the c-suite and significant hedge funds. These insiders are mandated to inform the public of their transactions through a Form 4 filing, to be submitted within two business days of the transaction.
A company insider's new purchase is a indicator of their positive anticipation for a rise in the stock.
While insider sells may not necessarily reflect a bearish view and can be motivated by various factors.
<h3>Transaction Codes To Focus On</h3>
<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/investing-tools">Investors</a> prefer focusing on transactions that take place in the open market, indicated in Table I of the Form 4 filing. A P in Box 3 indicates a purchase, while S indicates a sale. Transaction code C indicates the conversion of an option, and transaction code A indicates grant, award or other acquisition of securities from the company.
