Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously reported, on October 31, 2023, GD Culture Group Limited (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company sold an aggregate of 1,436,253 shares of common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, (ii) pre-funded warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 1,876,103 shares of common stock (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”), and (iii) registered warrants to purchase up to an aggregate of 3,312,356 shares of common stock (the “Registered Warrants”) to certain purchasers (the “Purchasers”). The purchase price of each Common Share is $3.019. The purchase price of each Pre-funded Warrant is $3.018, which equals the price per Common Share being sold in the offering, minus $0.001. The Pre-funded Warrants will be exercisable immediately after issuance and will expire five (5) years from the date of issuance. The Registered Warrants will be exercisable immediately and will expire five (5) years from the date of issuance. The offering was made pursuant to a shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (No. 333-254366), which was declared effective by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission on March 26, 2021, and a related prospectus supplement. The transaction was completed on November 3, 2023.

 

Amendment

 

On November 17, 2023, the Company entered into an amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement with the Purchasers, pursuant to which Exhibit B to the Securities Purchase Agreement (form of Registered Warrants) was deleted and replaced with an amended and restated the Form of Registered Warrant, to remove Section 2(b) Adjustment Upon Issuance of Common Stock and Section 2(e) Other Events.

 

The Registered Warrants that were issued to Purchasers under the Securities Purchase Agreement were returned to and cancelled by the Company on November 17, 2023. Concurrently, the Company issued amended and restated Registered Warrants to each Purchaser.

 

A copy of the amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The form of amended and restated form of Registered Warrants is filed as Exhibit 4.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing descriptions of the terms of the amendment to the Securities Purchase Agreement and the amended and restated form of Registered Warrants do not purport to be complete descriptions of the rights and obligations thereunder and are qualified in their entirety by reference to such exhibits.
