Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Clean Energy Technologies, Inc., a Nevada corporation (the “Company”), retains 49% equity interest in Vermont Renewable Gas LLC, a Vermont limited liability company (the “VRG”). On June 21, 2024, VRG entered into a loan agreement (the “Loan Agreement”) with FPM Development LLC, a Nevada limited liability company, and Evergreen Credit Facility I LLP, a Nevada limited liability partnership (collectively, the “Lenders”), pursuant to which the Lenders agreed to loan to VRG the principal amount of $12 million, to be disbursed in tranches based on agreed-upon milestones, for the construction of a waste-to-biogas generation facility. The term of the loan is two (2) years from the date of the first disbursement and shall mature at the end of the said two (2) years. The Loan shall bear interest on the amount outstanding at a rate equal to the 12-month Secured Overnight Financing Rate (SOFR) as published by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York plus 4.75% per annum.

Under the Loan Agreement, the $12 million loan shall be secured by (i) two contracts of VRG and (ii) a corporate guarantee provided by the Company (the “Corporate Guarantee”) pursuant to which the Company agreed to absolutely and unconditionally guarantees, on a continuing basis, to the Lenders the prompt payment to the Lenders when due at maturity all of VRG’s liabilities and obligations under the Loan Agreement. The Company has entered into the Corporate Guarantee with the Lenders on June 21, 2024.

Under the Loan Agreement, the Lenders may also convert up to 30% of the amount of loan disbursed into shares of common stock of the Company, at the exercise price of 15% discounted value of the then-current share price of the common stock of the Company. Accordingly, on June 21, 2024, the Company entered into a right to conversion agreement with the Lenders (the “FPM Right to Conversion Agreement”).

AMEC Business Advisory Pte. Ltd., a company incorporated in Singapore (the “AMEC”) may assume or acquire up to 50% of the total loan amount under the Loan Agreement, and seeks the option to convert an extra 10% of the amount of loan disbursed, in addition to a pro-rata portion of the 30% conversion right. On June 21, 2024, the Company entered into a right to conversion agreement with AMEC (the “AMEC Right to Conversion Agreement”).

The foregoing descriptions of the Loan Agreement, the Corporate Guarantee, the FPM Right to Conversion Agreement, and the AMEC Right to Conversion Agreement do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of the form of each of such document which are filed as Exhibits 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.
