Item 1.01. Entry into a Definitive Material Agreement.

 

On October 20, 2025, Dragonfly Energy Holdings Corp. (the “Company”), Dragonfly Energy Corp. and Battle Born Battery Products, LLC entered into the Sixth Amendment (the “Sixth Amendment”) to its Term Loan, Guarantee and Security Agreement (as amended, the “Term Loan Agreement”) with the lenders (the “Lenders”) and Alter Domus (US) LLC, as agent, with respect to the Company’s senior secured term loan facility (the “Term Loan”). Under the Sixth Amendment, the Company has agreed to restructure its outstanding indebtedness as follows:

 

  the Company has made a prepayment of $45.0 million of outstanding indebtedness under the Term Loan Agreement (the “Loan Prepayment”) from the net proceeds from the underwritten public offering of its common stock, par value $0.0001 (the “Common Stock”) that was consummated on October 17, 2025 (the “Offering”);
     
  the Company has agreed to issue $25 million of shares of newly created Series B preferred stock of the Company (the “Preferred Stock”) in exchange for $25 million outstanding principal amount of the loan, which Preferred Stock will be issued following the filing of a certificate of designation for the Preferred Stock with the Secretary of State of the State of Nevada and will (i) be convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, at the Lenders option at a conversion price of $3.15 per share, or an aggregate of 7,936,508 shares of Common Stock, (ii) have a dividend of 8% per annum payable quarterly in cash and (iii) have a dividend of 2% per annum payable quarterly in kind. In addition, the Company has a right to redeem any outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock at its option at the greater of (i) the stated value plus any outstanding dividends and (ii) the as-converted value of the shares of Common Stock underlying the Preferred Stock (the “Optional Redemption Price”). The Lenders have also agreed not to convert any shares of the Preferred Stock for a period of six months following the issuance of the Preferred Stock. In connection with any future equity offerings, the Company will be required to use 25% of the net proceeds from such offering to redeem outstanding shares of the Preferred Stock at the Optional Redemption Price. In the event the Company has not redeemed the outstanding shares Preferred Stock by October 7, 2027, the holders will have the right to require the Company to redeem the Preferred Stock at the Optional Redemption Price;
     
  in connection with the Loan Prepayment, the Lenders have agreed to forgive the repayment of $5.0 million of the outstanding principal under the Term Loan Agreement;
     
  the remaining outstanding principal amount under the Term Loan Agreement of $17 million, after the repayment and forgiveness disclosed above, will have a fixed interest rate of 12% per annum, payable monthly commencing December 31, 2025 and will mature in October 2027;
     
  the Company has agreed to pay a fee to the Lenders equal to approximately $450,000 in cash and $450,000 added to principal outstanding amount of the loan under the Term Loan Agreement; and
     
  certain covenants under the Term Loan Agreement have been waived through December 31, 2026, and the Company has agreed to a minimum liquidity covenant of $5.0 million calculated on a monthly basis.

 

The summary of the terms of the Sixth Amendment herein is subject to and qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Sixth Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
