| Item 1.01 | Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. |
On May 17, 2024, Volcon, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into separate warrant amendment agreements (collectively, the “Warrant Amendment”) with the holders of a majority-in-interest of the holders of the Company’s Series B warrants issued on November 17, 2023 (the “Series B Warrants”). Pursuant to the Warrant Amendment, all outstanding Series B Warrants were amended to delete the following sections: (i) a provision providing for the adjustment of the exercise price and number of shares issuable pursuant to the Series B Warrants if the Company completed a future offering at a price per share less the exercise price of the Series B Warrants then in effect; and (ii) a provision providing for the adjustment of the exercise price and number of shares issuable pursuant to the Series B Warrants if price of the Company’s common stock after the completion of a share split, share dividend, share combination, recapitalization or other similar transaction is less the exercise price of the Series B Warrants then in effect. In addition, the Warrant Amendment provides that the holders may also exercise the Series B Warrants on a cashless basis and receive an aggregate number of shares equal the product of the aggregate number of shares of common stock that would be issuable upon exercise of the Series B Warrants by means of a cash exercise rather than a cashless exercise, multiplied by 0.81.
On May 17, 2024, after giving effect to the Warrant Amendment, the Company and certain holders of Series B Warrants to purchase an aggregate of 13,777,011 shares of common stock (the “Holders”) entered into separate exchange agreements (the “Agreements”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to exchange the Series B Warrants held by the Holders for shares of Company common stock (or, at the option of the Holder, pre-funded warrants) at a ratio of 0.81 shares of Company common stock (or, at the option of the Holder, pre-funded warrants) for each whole Series B Warrant.
The issuance of the Company common stock (or pre-funded warrants) was made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended. The Series B Warrants were previously registered on the Form S-1 (file number 333-274800).
The form of Warrant Amendment and Agreement have been attached as exhibits to this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide security holders with information regarding their terms. Except for their status as contractual documents that establish and govern the legal relations between the parties with respect to the transaction described above, the documents are not intended to be a source of factual, business or operational information about the parties. Representations and warranties may be used as a tool to allocate risks between the parties to the agreements, including where the parties do not have complete knowledge of all facts, instead of establishing these matters as facts. Furthermore, they may be subject to standards of materiality applicable to the contracting parties, which may differ from those applicable to investors. Accordingly, investors and security holders should not rely on such representations and warranties as characterizations of the actual state of facts or circumstances, because they were only made as of the date of the agreements. Moreover, information concerning the subject matter of such representations and warranties may change after the date of the agreements, which subsequent information may or may not be fully reflected in the Company’s public disclosures.
The foregoing description of the Warrant Amendment and Agreement is not complete and each is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the documents, copies of which are filed as Exhibit 4.1 and 10.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated by reference herein.
