Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement. On August 25, 2024, 5E Advanced Materials, Inc. (the "Company") entered into commitment letters (the "Debt Commitment Letters") with BEP Special Situations IV LLC ("Bluescape") and Ascend Global Investment Fund SPC, for and on behalf of Strategic SP ("Ascend," and together with Bluescape, the "Commitment Parties"), pursuant to which each of the Commitment Parties has agreed to purchase $3.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Company's secured convertible promissory notes (the "Notes") in a private placement, subject to the terms and conditions set forth therein (the "Debt Financing"). The funding of the Debt Financing pursuant to the Debt Commitment Letters is contingent on the satisfaction of certain conditions set forth therein, including the Company's consummation of an equity financing (the "Equity Financing") and the amendment of the Company's existing Amended and Restated Note Purchase Agreement. The Notes will be substantially identical to the Company's outstanding secured convertible promissory notes, and the conversion price for the Notes will be 125% of the price per share of the shares sold in the Equity Financing. Unless otherwise agreed by the parties, the Debt Commitment Letters will terminate on September 17, 2024 if the Debt Financing has not been consummated before such date. The proceeds from the Debt Financing will be used by the Company to advance its FEL-2 engineering program towards completion while providing working capital to continue operating its small-scale facility and progressing the Company's customer qualification program. The foregoing summary of the Debt Commitment Letters is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Bluescape Debt Commitment Letter and the Ascend Debt Commitment Letter, which are attached as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2 to this Current Report, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
