Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On April 10, 2023, Eos Energy Enterprises, Inc. (the “Company”) and YA II PN, LTD (“Yorkville”) entered into Amendment No. 5 (“Amendment No. 5”) to the Standby Equity Purchase Agreement dated as of April 28, 2022 (as amended, the “SEPA”), to clarify that the Exchange Cap (as defined in the SEPA) does not apply (a) if the Company’s stockholders have approved issuances in excess of the Exchange Cap, or (b) to sales of shares of common stock under the SEPA at a price that equals or exceeds $2.47 per share (which represents the lower of (x) the Nasdaq Official Closing Price on the Trading Day (each as defined in the SEPA) immediately preceding April 10, 2023, the date of issuance of the Promissory Note (as defined below), and (y) the average Nasdaq Official Closing Price for the five Trading Days immediately preceding April 10, 2023; provided that, in the case of clause (b), the average price of all applicable sales of shares of common stock under the SEPA after December 29, 2022 equals or exceeds $2.47 per share; provided further that, in the event that the Company obtains stockholder approval of the transactions between the Company and Yorkville from December 29, 2022 through March 22, 2023 as described in the Company’s Definitive Proxy Statement on Schedule 14A filed with the SEC on March 27, 2023, as may be amended or supplemented from time to time, then the reference to “Amendment No. 3” in the definition of the Exchange Cap shall instead be read to refer to “Amendment No. 5” and the reference to December 29, 2022 in the definition of the Exchange Cap shall instead be read to refer to “April 10, 2023.”
With the exception of the foregoing description of Amendment No. 5, the terms of the SEPA remain unchanged, and the SEPA, as amended, remains in full force and effect.
The foregoing description of Amendment No. 5 does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of Amendment No. 5, a copy of which is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is hereby incorporated by reference.
Supplemental Agreement to the SEPA and Promissory Note Issuance
On April 10, 2023, the Company issued and sold a convertible promissory note with an aggregate principal amount of $15.0 million (the “Promissory Note”) in a private placement to Yorkville under a supplemental agreement dated as of April 10, 2023 (the “Fourth Supplemental Agreement”) to the SEPA between the Company and Yorkville.
The Company agreed to use the proceeds from the sale of the Promissory Note for working capital and other general corporate purposes or, if different, in a manner consistent with the application thereof described in the Company’s prospectus relating to the SEPA filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on April 28, 2022 and included as a part of the Company’s Registration Statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-263298).
The Promissory Note has a maturity date of August 31, 2023 (the “Maturity Date”) and was issued with a 2% original issue discount. Interest shall accrue on the outstanding principal balance of the Promissory Note, beginning on the 29th day following the date of issuance, at an annual rate equal to 5.0% unless and until there is an event of default, upon the occurrence of which, interest shall accrue at a rate of 15% per year until collected in full. The Promissory Note is convertible into shares of the Company’s common stock at a conversion price equal to the lower of $2.8093 and 90.0% of the lowest daily volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock during the seven (7) consecutive trading days immediately preceding the conversion date (the “Conversion Price”) any time prior to the Maturity Date, subject to the terms and conditions of the Promissory Note. The Conversion Price may not be less than $0.53 per share (the “Floor Price”). No portion of the Promissory Note may be converted if the shares of common stock issued as a result of such conversion, together with any shares of common stock issued in connection with the SEPA and with any other related transactions that may be considered part of the same series of transactions, would exceed the aggregate number of shares of common stock that the Company may issue in a transaction (the “Promissory Note Exchange Cap”) in compliance with the Company’s obligations under the rules or regulations of the Nasdaq Stock Market LLC (“Nasdaq”), until the Company has obtained stockholder approval in accordance with such Nasdaq rules. If the volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock is less than the Floor Price for five consecutive trading days or if the Company has issued in excess of 99% of the common stock available under the Promissory Note Exchange Cap, subject to certain limitations, the Company must make weekly payments on the Promissory Note. At any time that there is an outstanding balance owed under the Promissory Note, Yorkville may, pursuant to the terms of the Fourth Supplemental Agreement, require the Company to deliver an advance under the SEPA for the issuance and sale of common stock at the Conversion Price in order to offset the amounts owed by the Company to Yorkville under the Promissory Note. In addition, while there is an outstanding balance owed under the Promissory Note, Yorkville shall use any advance requested by the Company pursuant to the SEPA to offset the amounts owed by the Company to Yorkville under the Promissory Note.
The foregoing descriptions of the Fourth Supplemental Agreement and the Promissory Note do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of each of the Fourth Supplemental Agreement and the Promissory Note, copies of which are filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K as Exhibit 10.2 and Exhibit 4.1 hereto, respectively, and are hereby incorporated herein by reference.

(1) GENERAL TERMS
(a) Maturity Date. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all then outstanding Principal, plus the Payment Premium, and all accrued and unpaid Interest. The “Maturity Date” shall be August 31, 2023. This Note may be redeemed in accordance with Sections 1(c) and 1(e) hereof.
(b) Interest Rate and Payment of Interest. Beginning on the 29th day following the Issuance Date, Interest shall accrue on the outstanding Principal balance hereof at an annual rate equal to 5% (“Interest Rate”), which Interest Rate shall increase to an annual rate of 15% upon an Event of Default for so long as it remains uncured. Interest shall be calculated based on a 365-day year and the actual number of days elapsed, to the extent permitted by applicable law.
(c) Mandatory Payments. Subject to the provisions of Section 3(c)(ii), if, any time after the Issuance Date, and from time to time thereafter, a Trigger Event occurs, then the Company shall make weekly payments (in accordance with Section 1(d)) beginning on the later of (i) the 10th calendar day after the Trigger Date, and (ii) in the event the Trigger Date occurs during or within two Trading Days preceding a Company Black Out Period (as defined in Section 15), the 5th calendar day after the cessation of such Company Black Out Period, and continuing on the same day of each successive calendar week. Each weekly payment shall be in an amount equal to the sum of (i) $1,000,000 of Principal (or the outstanding Principal if less than such amount) (the “Triggered Principal Amount”), (ii) solely with respect to a Trigger Event caused by a Floor Price Trigger, the Payment Premium (as defined below, and if applicable in accordance with Section 1(d)) in respect of such Triggered Principal Amount, and (iii) accrued and unpaid interest hereunder as of each payment date (collectively, the “Payment Amount”). The obligation of the Company to make weekly payments hereunder shall cease (with respect to any payment that has not yet come due) if at any time after the Trigger Date, (A) in the event of a Floor Price Trigger, on the date that is the fifth consecutive Trading Day that the daily VWAP is greater than the Floor Price, or (B) in the event of an Exchange Cap Trigger, the date the Company has obtained stockholder approval to increase the number of shares of Common Stock under the Exchange Cap and/or the Exchange Cap no longer applies, unless a subsequent Triggering Date occurs.
(d) Weekly Payments. With respect to any payment due by the Company pursuant to Section 1(c), the Company shall, at its own option, either (i) repay each Payment Amount by submitting an Advance Notice (an “Advance Repayment”) with an Advance Date on or before each applicable due date of such Payment Amount, (ii) repay with the proceeds of sales of Common Stock pursuant to an ATM Agreement, or (iii) repay in cash, provided that, in each case, any such repayment would not violate the terms of the Atlas Facility (as defined in Section 15). In respect of any Payment Amount to be repaid by the Company in accordance with (ii) or (iii) of this Section 1(d), the Company shall pay to the Holder the Payment Amount to be paid to the Holder, which for the avoidance of doubt shall include the Payment Premium, by wire transfer of immediately available funds in cash on or before such due date. If the Company elects an Advance Repayment, then the Company shall deliver an Advance Notice to the Holder in accordance with the terms and conditions of the SEPA requesting an advance amount equal to the Payment Amount, or portion thereof, to be paid by an Advance Repayment, that will have an Advance Date on or before the applicable due date, which Advance Notice shall specify the Payment Amount to be paid pursuant to such Advance Repayment, provided however, the Investor hereby waives the amount of the Payment Premium in respect of any Advance Repayment. Upon the closing of such Advance Notice in accordance with Section 2.02 of the SEPA, the Holder shall offset the amount due to be paid by the Holder to the Company under the SEPA against the portion of the Payment Amount to be paid by the Advance Repayment. If any portion of the Payment Amount remains unpaid at the applicable due date, the Company shall repay such outstanding Payment Amount pursuant to (ii) or (iii) of this Section 1(d), provided that, in each case, any such repayment would not violate the terms of the Atlas Facility.
2
(e) Optional Redemption. The Company at its option shall have the right, but not the obligation, to redeem (“Optional Redemption”) early a portion or all amounts outstanding under this Note as described in this Section; provided that (i) the Company provides the Holder with at least five Trading Days’ prior written notice (each, a “Redemption Notice”) of its desire to exercise an Optional Redemption, and (ii) the VWAP of the Company’s Common Stock on each of the ten Trading Days immediately prior to the Redemption Notice is less than the Fixed Conversion Price, Each Redemption Notice shall be irrevocable and shall specify the outstanding balance of the Note to be redeemed. The “Redemption Amount” shall be equal to the outstanding Principal balance being redeemed by the Company, plus the Payment Premium, plus all accrued and unpaid interest. After receipt of the Redemption Notice, the Holder shall have five Trading Days to elect to convert all or any portion of this Note. On the sixth Trading Day after the Redemption Notice, the Company shall deliver to the Holder the Redemption Amount with respect to the Principal amount redeemed after giving effect to conversions effected during the five Trading Day period. The Holder may convert all or any part of this Note after receiving a Redemption Notice, in which case the Redemption Amount shall be reduced by the amount so converted.

(a) An “Event of Default”, wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court, or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body):

(iii) the Company or any subsidiary of the Company shall default beyond applicable grace and cure periods in any of its obligations under any other debenture or any mortgage, credit agreement or other facility, indenture agreement, factoring agreement or other instrument under which there may be issued, or by which there may be secured or evidenced any indebtedness for borrowed money or money due under any long term leasing or factoring arrangement of the Company or any subsidiary of the Company in an amount exceeding $1,000,000, whether such indebtedness now exists or shall hereafter be created and such default shall result in such indebtedness becoming or being declared due and payable (excluding, for the avoidance of any doubt, payables to vendors in the ordinary course of business);

(ix) Any representation or warranty made or deemed made by the Company in any Transaction Document shall prove to have been incorrect in any material respect (or, in the case of any such representation or warranty already qualified by materiality, such representation or warranty shall prove to have been incorrect) when made or deemed made;
(x) Any Event of Default (as defined in the Other Notes) occurs with respect to any Other Notes held by the Holder;

5
(3) CONVERSION OF NOTE. This Note shall be convertible into shares of the Company’s Common Stock, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Section 3.
(a) Conversion Right. Subject to the provisions of this Section 3 and subject to the limitations on conversion set forth in Section 3(c)(ii), at any time or times on or after the Issuance Date, the Holder shall be entitled to convert any portion of the outstanding and unpaid Conversion Amount (as defined below) into fully paid and nonassessable shares of Common Stock, at the Conversion Price. The number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of any Conversion Amount pursuant to this Section 3(a) shall be determined by dividing (x) such Conversion Amount by (y) the Conversion Price. The Company shall not issue any fraction of a share of Common Stock upon any conversion. If the issuance would result in the issuance of a fraction of a share of Common Stock, the Company shall round such fraction of a share of Common Stock up or down to the nearest whole share. The Company shall pay any and all transfer, stamp and similar taxes that may be payable with respect to the issuance and delivery of Common Stock upon conversion of any Conversion Amount.
(i) “Conversion Amount” means the portion of the Principal to be converted, redeemed or otherwise with respect to which this determination is being made.
(ii) “Conversion Price” means, as of any Conversion Date (as defined below) or other date of determination the lower of (i) $2.8093 per share (the “Fixed Conversion Price”), or (ii) 90% of the lowest daily VWAP of the Common Stock during the seven (7) consecutive Trading Days immediately preceding the Conversion Date or other date of determination (the “Variable Conversion Price”) but not lower than the Floor Price. The Conversion Price shall be adjusted from time to time pursuant to the other terms and conditions of this Note.
(b) Mechanics of Conversion.
(i) Optional Conversion. To convert any Conversion Amount into shares of Common Stock on any date (a “Conversion Date”), the Holder shall (A) transmit by email with confirmation of delivery (or otherwise deliver by method set forth in Section 5), for receipt on or prior to 11:59 p.m., New York Time, on such date, a copy of an executed notice of conversion in the form attached hereto as Exhibit I (the “Conversion Notice”) to the Company and (B) if required by Section 3(c)(ii), surrender this Note to a nationally recognized overnight delivery service for delivery to the Company (or an indemnification undertaking reasonably satisfactory to the Company with respect to this Note in the case of its loss, theft or destruction). On or before the third (3rd) Business Day following the date of receipt of a Conversion Notice (the “Share Delivery Date”), the Company shall issue and deliver to the address as specified in the Conversion Notice, a certificate (or book entry), registered in the name of the Holder or its designee, for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder shall be entitled. Any shares of Common Stock issued upon conversion shall bear customary restrictive legends regarding restrictions on transfers under the applicable securities laws. If this Note is physically surrendered for conversion and the outstanding balance of this Note is greater than the portion of the Conversion Amount being converted, then the Company shall as soon as practicable and in no event later than three (3) Business Days after receipt of this Note and at its own expense, issue and deliver to the holder a new Note representing the outstanding balance not converted. The Person or Persons entitled to receive the shares of Common Stock issuable upon a conversion of this Note shall be treated for all purposes as the record holder or holders of such shares of Common Stock upon the receipt of a Conversion Notice.
6
(ii) Company’s Failure to Timely Convert. If within three (3) from the Share Delivery Date the Company shall fail to issue and deliver a certificate to the Holder, issue a book entry in the name of the Holder or credit the Holder’s balance account with DTC for the number of shares of Common Stock to which the Holder is entitled upon such holder’s conversion of any Conversion Amount (a “Conversion Failure”), and if on or after such Trading Day the Holder purchases (in an open market transaction or otherwise) Common Stock to deliver in satisfaction of a sale by the Holder of Common Stock issuable upon such conversion that the Holder anticipated receiving from the Company and that is saleable under Rule 144 at the time of such conversion (a “Buy-In”), then the Company shall, within three (3) Business Days after the Holder’s request and in the Holder’s discretion, either (i) pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the Holder’s total purchase price (including brokerage commissions and other out of pocket expenses, if any) for the shares of Common Stock so purchased (the “Buy-In Price”), at which point the Company’s obligation to deliver such certificate or book entry (and to issue such Common Stock) shall terminate, or (ii) promptly honor its obligation to deliver to the Holder a certificate or certificates or book entries representing such Common Stock and pay cash to the Holder in an amount equal to the excess (if any) of the Buy-In Price over the product of (A) such number of shares of Common Stock, times (B) the Closing Bid Price on the Conversion Date and such approval is applicable to issuances of shares of Common Stock upon conversion of this Note.
(iii) Book-Entry. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth herein, upon conversion of any portion of this Note in accordance with the terms hereof, the Holder shall not be required to physically surrender this Note to the Company unless (A) the full Conversion Amount represented by this Note is being converted or (B) the Holder has provided the Company with prior written notice (which notice may be included in a Conversion Notice) requesting reissuance of this Note upon physical surrender of this Note. The Holder and the Company shall maintain records showing the Principal converted and the dates of such conversions or shall use such other method, reasonably satisfactory to the Holder and the Company, so as not to require physical surrender of this Note upon conversion.
(c) Limitations on Conversions.
(i) Beneficial Ownership. The Holder shall not have the right to convert any portion of this Note to the extent that after giving effect to such conversion, the Holder, together with any affiliate thereof, would beneficially own (as determined in accordance with Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act and the rules promulgated thereunder) in excess of 9.99% of the number of shares of Common Stock outstanding immediately after giving effect to such conversion. Since the Holder will not be obligated to report to the Company the number of shares of Common Stock it may hold at the time of a conversion hereunder, unless the conversion at issue would result in the issuance of shares of Common Stock in excess of 9.99% of the then outstanding shares of Common Stock without regard to any other shares which may be beneficially owned by the Holder or an affiliate thereof, the Holder shall have the authority, responsibility and obligation to determine whether the restriction contained in this Section will limit any particular conversion hereunder and to the extent that the Holder determines that the limitation contained in this Section applies, the determination of which portion of the Principal amount of this Note is convertible shall be the responsibility and obligation of the Holder. The provisions of this Section may be waived by a Holder (but only as to itself and not to any other Holder) upon not less than 65 days’ prior notice to the Company. Other Holders shall be unaffected by any such waiver.

Any adjustment made pursuant to this Section shall become effective immediately after the record date for the determination of stockholders entitled to receive such dividend or distribution and shall become effective immediately after the effective date in the case of a subdivision or combination.

In the case of clause (C), the conversion price applicable for the newly issued Convertible Notes shall be based upon the amount of securities, cash and property that each share of Common stock would receive in such transaction and the Conversion Price in effect immediately prior to the effectiveness or closing date for such transaction. The terms of any such merger, sale or consolidation shall include such terms so as to continue to give the Holder the right to receive the securities, cash and property set forth in this Section upon any conversion or redemption following such event.

| (C) | The parties have agreed that the Investor shall provide a Pre-Advance Loan in the principal amount of up to $15,000,000, on the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, pursuant to the issuance and sale by the Company of a convertible promissory note to the Investor (the “Promissory Note”) in the form attached hereto as Exhibit A. |
NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants contained herein and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Investor hereby agree as follows:
1. Definitions and Interpretation

Subject to the satisfaction (or waiver) of the conditions precedent set forth in Section 5 below, the Company shall issue and sell to the Investor, and the Investor shall purchase from the Company, a Promissory Note with a principal amount of $15,000,000 (the “Principal Amount”) for a purchase price equal to 98% of the Principal Amount (the “Purchase Price”) at the closing (the “Closing”), which shall take place on the date hereof (the “Closing Date”).

3. Supplemental Agreements to the SEPA.
3.1 Investor Advance Notices. At any time during the Commitment Period, provided that there is an outstanding balance owed under the Promissory Note, the Investor may, by providing written notice to the Company in the form set forth herein as Exhibit B (an “Investor Notice”), require the Company to deliver an Advance Notice to the Investor in accordance with the following provisions:
(a) The Investor shall, in each Investor Notice, select the amount of the Advance, in its sole discretion, and the timing of delivery; provided that the amount of the Advance shall not exceed (i) the outstanding balance owed under the Promissory Note on the date of delivery of the Investor Notice, or (ii) the amount that would cause the aggregate number of Common Shares beneficially owned (as calculated pursuant to Section 13(d) of the Exchange Act) by the Investor and its Affiliates as a result of previous issuances and sales of Common Shares to Investor under this Agreement and the SEPA to exceed 9.99% of the then outstanding Common Shares (the “Ownership Limitation”). In connection with each Investor Notice delivered by the Investor, any portion of the Advance that would (i) cause the Investor to exceed the Ownership Limitation or (ii) cause the aggregate number of Shares issued and sold to the Investor hereunder to exceed the Commitment Amount shall automatically be withdrawn with no further action required by the Company, and such Investor Notice shall be deemed automatically modified to reduce the amount of the Advance requested by an amount equal to such withdrawn portion; provided that in the event of any such automatic withdrawal and automatic modification, the Investor will promptly notify the Company of such event.
(b) The Purchase Price of the Shares in respect of any Advance Notice delivered pursuant to an Investor Notice shall be equal to the Conversion Price (as defined in the Promissory Note) in effect on the date of delivery of the Investor Notice.
(c) Investor Notices shall be delivered in accordance with the instructions set forth at the bottom of Exhibit B. An Investor Notice shall be deemed delivered on the day it is received by the Company.
(d) Upon the deemed delivery of an Investor Notice in accordance with Section 3.1(c) above, a corresponding Advance Notice shall simultaneously be deemed to have been delivered by the Company to the Investor, and any conditions precedent to such Advance Notice under the terms of the SEPA that have not been satisfied shall be deemed to have been waived by the Investor.
(e) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if on any day that an Investor Notice is delivered (i) the Company notifies the Investor that a Material Outside Event has occurred, or (ii) the Company notifies the Investor of a Black Out Period, the parties agree that such Investor Notice shall be automatically withdrawn.
2
3.2 Closings of an Advance Notice delivered pursuant to an Investor Notice.
(a) In respect of an Advance Notice deemed to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 above, the Advance Date shall be the date that the Advance Notice is deemed to be delivered.
(b) In respect of an Advance Notice deemed to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 above, the Investor shall pay the aggregate purchase price of the Shares (as set forth in the Settlement Document) by offsetting the amount of the aggregate purchase price of the Shares to be paid by the Investor against an equal amount outstanding under the Promissory Note (first towards accrued and unpaid interest, and then towards outstanding principal, with no deduction for any Payment Premium, as defined in the Promissory Note).
(c) The closing of each Advance Notice deemed to be delivered pursuant to Section 3.1 above and issuance of Shares related to such Advance Notice (each, an “Advance Notice Closing”) shall take place as soon as practicable on or after each Advance Date in accordance with the procedures set forth below. In connection with each Advance Notice Closing, the Company and the Investor shall fulfill each of its obligations as set forth below:
(i) On each Advance Date, the Investor shall deliver to the Company a written document, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit C (each a “Settlement Document”), setting forth the number of Shares to be purchased by the Investor, the applicable Conversion Price, the aggregate amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on the Promissory Note as of the Advance Date that shall be offset by the issuance of Shares, the aggregate principal amount of the Promissory Note as of the Advance Date that shall be offset by the issuance of Shares and the total principal amount of the Promissory Note that shall be outstanding following the Advance Notice Closing.
(ii) Promptly after receipt of the Settlement Document with respect to each Advance (and, in any event, not later than two Trading Days after such receipt), the Company will, or will cause its transfer agent to, electronically transfer such number of Shares to be purchased by the Investor (as set forth in the Settlement Document) by crediting the Investor’s account or its designee’s account at the Depository Trust Company through its Deposit Withdrawal at Custodian System or by such other means of delivery as may be mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto, and transmit notification to the Investor that such share transfer has been requested. No fractional shares shall be issued, and any fractional amounts shall be rounded to the next higher whole number of shares. To facilitate the transfer of the Shares by the Investor, the Shares will not bear any restrictive legends so long as there is an effective Registration Statement covering the issuance and resale of such Shares (it being understood and agreed by the Investor that notwithstanding the lack of restrictive legends, the Investor may only sell such Shares in compliance with the requirements of the Securities Act (including any applicable prospectus delivery requirements) or pursuant to an available exemption).
(iii) On or prior to each Advance Date, each of the Company and the Investor shall deliver to the other all documents, instruments and writings expressly required to be delivered by either of them pursuant to this Agreement or the SEPA in order to implement and effect the transactions contemplated herein.

Investor also understands that there is no assurance that any exemption from registration under the Securities Act will be available and that, even if available, such exemption may not allow Investor to transfer all or any portion of the Promissory Note or the Common Shares issuable upon conversion thereof under the circumstances, in the amounts or at the times Investor might propose.
