Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previous reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) by Freight Technologies, Inc. (the “Company”), on April 30, 2025, the Company entered into a Securities Purchase Agreement, dated as of April 29, 2025 (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Holders”), wherein the Company sold to the Holders senior convertible notes (“Notes”) and warrants to purchase the Notes in the original principal amount of $20,000,000.

 

On May 27, 2025, the Company, entered into an Amendment and Exchange Agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with one of the Holders (the “Holder”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to exchange certain Notes previously issued to the Holder for Series A4 preferred shares of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Series A4 Preferred Shares”). Under the terms of the Exchange Agreement, the Holder will exchange the outstanding amounts under the Notes, including principal, interest, and other amounts, for a specified aggregate number of shares of Series A4 Preferred Shares (the “New Preferred Shares”) (the “Notes Exchange Transaction”).

 

The New Preferred Shares will be immediately convertible, in whole or in part, into ordinary shares of the Company with no par value per share (the “Ordinary Shares”) in accordance with the terms of the Amended and Restated Memorandum and Articles of Association filed with the Registrar of Corporate Affairs of the British Virgin Islands on January 31, 2025. The Company is required to reserve a sufficient number of Ordinary Shares to permit the conversion of the New Preferred Shares.

 

The Exchange Agreement provides that the aggregate number of Ordinary Shares issued upon conversion of Series A4 Preferred Shares shall not exceed 19.9% of the outstanding Ordinary Shares as of the date of the Exchange Agreement, unless and until stockholder approval is obtained in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Nasdaq Capital Market. The Company is obligated to seek such stockholder approval by a specified deadline and, if not obtained, to continue to seek approval at subsequent meetings until approval is obtained.

 

The Notes Exchange Transaction is being conducted in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The New Preferred Shares and the Ordinary Shares issuable upon conversion thereof (the “New Conversion Shares”, and together with the New Preferred Shares, the “New Securities”) have not been registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold absent registration or an applicable exemption. No commission or other remuneration has been paid by the Company or the Holder for soliciting the Notes Exchange Transaction.

 

The foregoing description of the Exchange Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Exchange Agreement, a copy of which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K. The Exchange Agreement also contains customary closing conditions, representations and warranties and covenants.

 

Item 2.03. Creation of a Direct Financial Obligation or an Obligation under an Off-Balance Sheet Arrangement of a Registrant.

 

The information contained above in Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.03 in its entirety.

 

Item 3.02. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

 

The information contained above in Item 1.01 is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 3.02 in its entirety. The issuance of New Securities will be made in reliance on the exemption from registration provided under Section 3(a)(9) of the Securities Act.

 

 

 

 

Item 7.01 Regulation FD Disclosure.

 

On May 27, 2025, the Company issued a press release announcing the closing of the Notes Exchange Transaction. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K.

 

The information furnished herein (including Exhibit 99.1) shall not be deemed “filed” for purposes of Section 18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), or otherwise subject to the liabilities of that section, nor shall it be deemed incorporated by reference into any filing under the Exchange Act or the Securities Act, except as expressly set forth by specific reference in such a filing.
