Can someone with banking / deal-making experience explain to me how this warrant works? My point: If OpenAI exercises the warrant and buys 10% of AMD for 1 penny per share, where does AMD get the shares? Or will they do a secondary offering and dilute existing shares? Or do they take from treasury holdings (of shares)? Or does AMD coordinate a buyback of shares, then deliver to OpenAI?

They issue new shares. Or effectively already have by issuing the warrants.
