Company: Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc.
Filing Type: Form 8-K (Current Report)
Date of Report: August 20, 2026
Event: Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement (Amendment Agreement) regarding a Securities Purchase Agreement originally dated March 21, 2025.
Key Financial Metrics
This filing does not contain standard financial performance metrics such as revenue, profit, cash flow, or operating margins. The document focuses on capital structure adjustments.
- Total Aggregate Purchase Price (Original Agreement): $41 million (approx. $39.5 million cash, $1.5 million loan conversion).
- Instrument Types: Senior unsecured convertible notes, common stock purchase warrants, Series B Preferred Stock, and incremental note purchase warrants.
- Closing Status: Three closings completed (April 4, 2025; May 28, 2025; July 11, 2025). The Fourth Closing was pending as of the report date.
Material Changes Versus Prior Period
The Amendment Agreement executed on August 20, 2026, introduces the following material changes to the original March 2025 Securities Purchase Agreement:
- Restructuring of Fourth Closing: The remaining Fourth Closing is split into two separate closings.
- Elimination of Warrants: The Company's obligation to issue Common Warrants and Incremental Warrants at the remaining closings is eliminated. Additionally, the right to receive Common Warrants upon exercise of outstanding Incremental Warrants is removed.
- Reallocation of Commitments: A portion of the remaining Note Commitment Amount is reallocated from one Investor to another.
- Conversion Price Adjustments: The conversion price for the Amended and Restated Unsecured Notes will now only adjust upon: (i) the final closing, (ii) receipt of Stockholder Approval, or (iii) the effectiveness date of the Registration Statement. In each case, the price adjusts to 100% of the Closing Bid Price on the trading day immediately prior to the event.
Guidance, Outlook, and Risks
Management Commentary: The filing summarizes the terms of the Amendment Agreement and notes that the terms of the Amended and Restated Unsecured Notes remain substantially similar to the original form, except for the specific conversion price adjustments and warrant eliminations detailed above.
Risks and Contingencies: The filing states that the summary is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by the full text of the Amendment Agreement (Exhibit 10.1) and the Form of Amended and Restated Unsecured Note (Exhibit 4.1). The success of the remaining closings is contingent upon the execution of these amended terms.
Investor Verification Checklist
- Verify the specific terms of the two new closings replacing the original Fourth Closing.
- Confirm the identity of the Investors involved in the reallocation of the Note Commitment Amount.
- Review the full text of the Amended and Restated Unsecured Note (Exhibit 4.1) to understand the precise mechanics of the new conversion price triggers.
- Assess the impact of eliminating Common Warrants and Incremental Warrants on the Company's future dilution profile.
