01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement
Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On May 20, 2023, Volcon, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with certain institutional investors listed on the signature pages thereto (individually, the "Investor" and collectively, the "Investors") pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors in a private placement (i) senior non-convertible notes in an aggregate principal amount of $2,942,352.00 (the "Notes"), and (ii) five-year warrants to purchase approximately 10.1 million shares of Company common stock with an exercise price of $0.29 per share (the "Warrants"). The closing of the private placement will occur upon the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. The Notes will be the senior unsecured obligations of the Company and were issued with an original issue discount of approximately 15%. The Notes will bear no interest unless an event of default has occurred, upon which interest accrues at 10.0% per annum. The Notes will mature on the one-year anniversary of the issuance date (the "Maturity Date"). The Warrants will contain certain exercise limitations, providing that no exercise may be made if, after giving effect to the exercise, the holder, together with any of its affiliates, would own in excess of 4.99% of the Company's outstanding shares of common stock. Aegis Capital Corp. ("Aegis") acted as exclusive placement agent for the private placement, and will receive upon closing cash compensation of 7.2% of the private placement, and expense reimbursement of $50,000. The issuance of the Notes and the Warrants was made in reliance on the exemption provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act") for the offer and sale of securities not involving a public offering, and Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act.
