Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Securities Purchase Agreements

On July 28, 2025, CEA Industries Inc. (the “Company”) entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Cash Securities Purchase Agreements”) with certain accredited investors (the “Cash Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Cash Purchasers in a private placement offering (the “Cash Offering”) (i) shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.00001 per share (the “Common Stock”), at an offering price of $10.10 per share, (ii) pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrant Shares,”) at an offering price of $10.09999 per Pre-Funded Warrant, and (iii) stapled warrants (the “Stapled Warrants,” and together with the Common Stock and Pre-Funded Warrants, the “Securities”) to purchase shares of Common Stock (the “Stapled Warrant Shares,”) at an exercise price of $15.15 per Stapled Warrant. In the Cash Offering, the Cash Purchasers will tender U.S. dollars to the Company as consideration for the Common Stock, Stapled Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants.

Each of the Pre-Funded Warrants is exercisable for one share of Common Stock at the exercise price of $0.00001 per Pre-Funded Warrant Share, immediately exercisable, and may be exercised at any time until all of the Pre-Funded Warrants issued in the Offerings (as defined below) are exercised in full. Each Cash Purchaser’s ability to exercise its Pre-Funded Warrants in exchange for shares of Common Stock is subject to certain beneficial ownership limitations set forth therein. Each of the Stapled Warrants is exercisable for one share of Common Stock at the exercise price of $15.15 per Stapled Warrant Share, immediately exercisable, and may be exercised at any time until the earlier of (i) 36 months after the closing of the Offerings or (ii) all of the Stapled Warrants issued in the Offerings are exercised in full. If the daily volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock is above $20.20 during any 20 trading days in a 30-trading day period, and subject to election and notice by the Company, the Stapled Warrants are subject to mandatory exercise.

On July 28, 2025, the Company entered into securities purchase agreements (the “Cryptocurrency Securities Purchase Agreements,” and together with the Cash Securities Purchase Agreements, the “Securities Purchase Agreements”) with certain accredited investors (the “Cryptocurrency Purchasers,” and together with the Cash Purchasers, the “Purchasers”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue to the Cryptocurrency Purchasers in a private placement (the “Cryptocurrency Offering,” and together with the Cash Offering, the “Offerings”) (i) shares of Common Stock, at an offering price of $10.10 per share, (ii) Pre-Funded Warrants to purchase up to shares of Common Stock and (iii) Stapled Warrants to purchase shares of Common Stock, at an exercise price of $15.15 per Stapled Warrant. In the Cryptocurrency Offering, the Cryptocurrency Purchasers will tender BNB (as such term is defined in the Securities Purchase Agreements) as consideration for the Common Stock, Stapled Warrants and Pre-Funded Warrants.

Cantor Fitzgerald & Co. (“Cantor Fitzgerald”) is acting as the sole placement agent in connection with the Offerings.

The Common Stock, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, the Stapled Warrants, and the Stapled Warrant Shares are being offered in reliance upon the exemption from the registration requirement of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) thereof and/or Rule 506(b) of Regulation D promulgated thereunder, and applicable state securities laws. The issuance of the Common Stock, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, the Stapled Warrants, and the Stapled Warrant Shares have not been registered under the Securities Act and such securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an exemption from registration under the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws.

The Company intends to use the net proceeds from the Offerings to acquire the native cryptocurrency of the Binance Coin blockchain commonly referred to as “BNB” and contribute the BNB to the Company’s treasury operations. At least 20% of the net proceeds from the Offerings will be used in activities carried on for the production of income from performing services, including but not limited to blockchain validation services, blockchain lending services or other decentralized finance services. 5% of the net proceeds (after the payment of such fees and expenses) are expected to be invested into approved validator, wrapping and staking technology in furtherance of the Company’s business and its treasury management. None of the proceeds from the Offerings will be used for: (a) the redemption of any Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents, (b) for the settlement of any outstanding litigation or (c) in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act of 1977, as amended or the Office of Foreign Assets Control of the U.S. Treasury Department regulations.

Registration Rights Agreement

In connection with entering into the Securities Purchase Agreements, on July 28, 2025, the Company and the Purchasers entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to file a registration statement with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, within 30 days of the closing of the Offerings registering the resale of the Common Stock sold in the Offerings, the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Pre-Funded Warrant Shares, the Stapled Warrants, the Stapled Warrant Shares, and certain securities to be issued to the Company’s strategic advisor.

The foregoing summaries of the Pre-Funded Warrants, the Stapled Warrants, the Cash Securities Purchase Agreements, the Cryptocurrency Securities Purchase Agreements and the Registration Rights Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the complete text of those agreements, which are attached hereto as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 1.01.
