In addition, Amendment No. 3 adds an option for the Company to submit three hour rapid purchase notices to White Lion that, if accepted by White Lion and otherwise delivered in accordance with the Purchase Agreement, would enable the Company to sell shares of its common stock to White Lion based on the lowest traded price of the Company’s common stock during the three-hour valuation period following White Lion’s written acceptance of a three hour purchase notice.

On January 27, 2026 (the “Effective Date”), SunPower entered into a Standby Equity Purchase Agreement (the “SEPA”) with YA II PN, LTD., a Cayman Islands exempt limited company (the “Investor”). Pursuant to the SEPA, the Investor will advance up to $20.0 million to the Company in the form of a promissory note (“Promissory Note”). Promissory Notes will accrue interest on the outstanding principal balance at an annual rate equal to 0%, which will increase to an annual rate of 18% upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (as defined in the Promissory Notes) for so long as such event remains uncured. The Promissory Notes will mature on January 27, 2027, which may be extended at the option of the Investor. The Promissory Notes are convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock. Each tranche of a Promissory Note will be advanced less a discount in the amount equal to 10% of the principal amount of such tranche. The first tranche was disbursed on January 27, 2026 in the principal amount of $1.9 million.

 

Pursuant to the SEPA the Company will have the right, from time to time, until January 27, 2029 (unless the SEPA is terminated earlier), to require the Investor to purchase up to $25.0 million of shares of the Company’s common stock (“Commitment Amount”) subject to certain limitations and conditions set forth in the SEPA.

 

The Company paid the Investor a structuring and due diligence fee of $0.05 million and agreed to issue to the Investor 175,000 shares of the Company’s common stock within three days of the Effective Date as a commitment fee.

 

The SEPA will automatically terminate on the earliest to occur of (i) January 27, 2029 or (ii) the date on which the Investor has purchased from the Company under the SEPA the Commitment Amount in full. The Company may terminate the SEPA at any time upon five trading days’ prior written notice to the Investor, provided that there are no outstanding advance notices under which the Company is yet to issue shares of its common stock, there are no amounts outstanding under the Promissory Notes, and provided that the Company has paid all amounts owed to the Investor pursuant to the SEPA. The Company and the Investor may also agree to terminate the SEPA by mutual written consent.

At the closing under such purchase agreement, the Company issued the Debenture to the Investor in the original principal amount of $10.0 million for a purchase price of $9.0 million less certain fees payable under the purchase agreement. The Debenture accrues interest on the outstanding principal balance at an annual rate equal to 0%, which will increase to an annual rate of 18% upon the occurrence of an event of default under the Debenture for so long as such event remains uncured. The Debenture will mature on March 6, 2027, which may be extended at the option of the Investor.

The Company may repay each applicable Installment Amount, at the Company’s option, (a) in cash on or before the applicable Installment Date or (b) by submitting an advance notice under the SEPA, or a combination of a payment in cash and delivery of such advance notice. At any time after the Effective Date, the Investor may convert any portion of the outstanding balance under the Debenture into shares of the Company’s common stock at a fixed price of $2.50 per share (the “Fixed Price”). Additionally, at any time on or after any Installment Date, the Investor may convert any portion of any due and unpaid Installment Amount outstanding under the Debenture into shares of the Company’s common stock at a price equal to 95% of the volume weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the common stock during the five trading days prior to the conversion date (but the conversion price will not be lower than the “Floor Price” then in effect.

 

The Company, at its option, shall have the right to redeem early all or a portion of the amounts outstanding under the Debenture upon written notice to the Investor (an “Optional Redemption”), provided, that the Company may only deliver a notice of Optional Redemption if the VWAP of the Common Stock at the time the notice is delivered is less than the Fixed Price. In connection with an Optional Redemption, the redemption price payable by the Company will be equal to (i) the outstanding principal amount of the Debenture being redeemed, plus (ii) a payment premium equal to 3% of the principal amount being repaid, and plus (iii) accrued and unpaid interest under the Debenture; however, the prepayment premium shall not apply to any Optional Redemption of the Debenture if the redemption price is paid on or before April 30, 2026.
