SEC Form 424B3 filed by Complete Solaria Inc.

Up to 30,450,000 Shares of Common Stock

This prospectus supplement supplements the prospectus, dated August 8, 2024 (as amended or supplemented, the “prospectus”), which forms a part of our registration statement on Form S-1 (No. 333-280973). This prospectus supplement is being filed to update and supplement the information in the prospectus with the information contained in our Current Report on Form 8-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on September 26, 2024 (the “Current Report”). Accordingly, we have attached the Current Report to this prospectus supplement.

The prospectus and this prospectus supplement relate to the potential offer and sale of up to 30,450,000 shares of our common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “common stock”), by White Lion Capital, LLC (“White Lion” or the “Selling Securityholder”).

The shares of common stock to which the prospectus and this prospectus supplement relate may be issued to White Lion pursuant to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 16, 2024 between us and White Lion, as amended by Amendment No. 1 to the Common Stock Purchase Agreement dated July 24, 2024 (as amended, the “White Lion Purchase Agreement”), establishing an equity line of credit. Such shares of our common stock include (a) up to 30,000,000 shares of common stock that we may elect, in our sole discretion, to issue and sell to White Lion from time to time during the White Lion Commitment Period (as defined below) under the White Lion Purchase Agreement (assuming the shares to be issued are sold at a price of $1.00 per share) and (b) up to 450,000 shares of common stock (the “Commitment Shares”) issuable to White Lion as consideration for it entering into the White Lion Purchase Agreement (assuming the shares to be issued are sold at a price of $1.00 per share). See “The White Lion Transaction” below for a description of the White Lion Purchase Agreement and “Selling Securityholder” for additional information regarding White Lion.

The actual number of shares of our common stock issuable to White Lion will vary depending on the then-current market price of shares of our common stock sold to the Selling Securityholder under the White Lion Purchase Agreements and are subject to the further limitations set forth in the White Lion Purchase Agreement.

We are not selling any securities under the prospectus or this prospectus supplement and will not receive any of the proceeds from the sale of shares of common stock by the Selling Securityholder. Additionally, we will not receive any proceeds from the issuance or sale of the Commitment Shares. However, we may receive proceeds of up to $30.0 million from the sale of our common stock to the Selling Securityholder pursuant to the White Lion Purchase Agreement after the date of the prospectus.  The actual proceeds from White Lion may be less than this amount depending on the number of shares of our common stock sold and the price at which the shares of our common stock are sold.

The Selling Securityholder may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of common stock described in the prospectus in a number of different ways and at varying prices. See “Plan of Distribution” for more information about how the Selling Securityholder may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares of common stock being registered pursuant to the prospectus. The Selling Securityholder is an “underwriter” within the meaning of Section 2(a)(11) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

The Selling Securityholder will pay all brokerage fees and commissions and similar expenses attributable to the sales of its common stock. We will pay the expenses (except brokerage fees and commissions and similar expenses) incurred in registering the shares of common stock offered hereby, including legal and accounting fees. See “Plan of Distribution.”

Our common stock and Public Warrants are listed on The Nasdaq Stock Market under the symbols “CSLR” and “CSLRW,” respectively. On September 25, 2024, the last reported sales price of our common stock was $3.00 per share and the last reported sales price of our Public Warrants was $0.285 per Public Warrant.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On September 22, 2024, Complete Solaria, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into Note Purchase Agreements (the “Note Purchase Agreements”) with various purchasers relating to the private offering of the Company’s 7.00% Convertible Senior Notes due 2029 in an additional aggregate principal amount of $32,300,000 (the “Notes). The Notes were issued on September 24, 2024 pursuant to the Note Purchase Agreements and the Indenture, dated September 16, 2024, between the Company and U.S. Bank Trust Company, National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”). The proceeds of the Notes will be used to pay the cash consideration payable by the Company under the Asset Purchase Agreement, dated August 5, 2024, among SunPower Corporation and its subsidiaries named therein, as sellers, and the Company, as buyer (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), and/or for general corporate purposes, including but not limited to working capital.

In accordance with the Note Purchase Agreements, the Company has agreed to solicit stockholder approval to issue shares of the Company’s common stock, $0.0001 par value per share (the “Common Stock”), upon conversion of the Notes in excess of the limitations otherwise applicable under the Indenture as a result of Nasdaq Listing Rule 5635(d)(2) and, if such stockholder approval is obtained, to take certain actions to seek approval to amend the Indenture to enable the earlier conversion of the Notes. Additionally, the Company has agreed to register for resale the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes pursuant to the terms and conditions set forth in the Note Purchase Agreements.

The foregoing summary of the Note Purchase Agreements is qualified in its entirety by reference to the form of Note Purchase Agreement attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K, and such Exhibit 10.1 is incorporated herein by reference.

The Notes are general unsecured obligations of the Company and will mature on July 1, 2029, unless earlier converted, redeemed, or repurchased. Interest on the Notes accrues at a rate of 7.00% per year from September 16, 2024 and will be payable semiannually in arrears on January 1 and July 1 of each year, beginning on January 1, 2025. On or after September 16, 2025, until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date, holders of the Notes may convert all or any portion of their Notes at any time, in integral multiples of $1,000 principal amount, at the option of the holder. Upon conversion, the Company may satisfy its conversion obligation by paying or delivering, as the case may be, cash, shares of Common Stock or a combination of cash and shares of Common Stock, at the Company’s election, in the manner and subject to the terms, conditions and limitations provided in the Indenture.

The conversion rate for the Notes is initially 467.8363 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes. The conversion rate for the Notes is subject to adjustment from time to time in accordance with the terms of the Indenture. In addition, upon a conversion of the Notes after September 16, 2025, following certain corporate events that occur prior to the maturity date of the Notes or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the Notes, the Company will, under certain circumstances, increase the conversion rate of the Notes for a holder who elects to convert its Notes following September 16, 2025, in connection with such a corporate event that occurs prior to the maturity date, or if the Company delivers a notice of redemption in respect of the Notes.

If the Company does not consummate the transactions under the Asset Purchase Agreement on or before the outside date specified in the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “APA Outside Date”), and the Asset Purchase Agreement is terminated in accordance with its terms, the Company shall deliver notice of same to the trustee and the escrow agent for the proceeds of the Notes and the Note holders within two business days following the APA Outside Date. During the 30-day period following delivery of such notice, each Note holder shall have the right, at such holder’s option, to require the Company to repurchase for cash all (and not less than all) of such holder’s Notes for an amount equal to the greater of (i) 100.50% of the aggregate principal amount of all of the Notes held by such holder and (ii) 100.50% of an amount equal to (a) the number of shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes based on the then-applicable conversion rate, multiplied by (b) the daily volume-weighted average price of the Common Stock for the five trading days ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the applicable date of determination, plus, in each case, accrued and unpaid interest on the Notes.

The Company may not redeem the Notes prior to September 16, 2026. The Company may redeem for cash all or any portion of the Notes, at its option, subject to the conditions and requirements of the Indenture, (i) on or after September 16, 2026 and prior to July 1, 2029, if the last reported sale price of the Common Stock has been at least 150% of the conversion price for the Notes then in effect for at least 20 trading days during any 30 consecutive trading day period (including the last trading day of such period) ending on, and including, the trading day immediately preceding the date on which the Company provides notice of redemption at a redemption price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. No sinking fund is provided for the Notes.

If the Company undergoes a fundamental change (as defined in the Indenture), then, subject to certain conditions and except as described in the Indenture, holders may require the Company to repurchase for cash all or any portion of their Notes at a fundamental change repurchase price equal to 100% of the principal amount of the Notes to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the fundamental change repurchase date.

The Indenture includes customary covenants and sets forth certain events of default after which the Notes may be declared immediately due and payable and sets forth certain types of bankruptcy or insolvency events of default involving the Company after which the Notes become automatically due and payable. The following events are considered “events of default” under the Indenture:

If certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default occur with respect to the Company, the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all of the Notes then outstanding shall automatically become due and payable. If an event of default with respect to the Notes, other than certain bankruptcy and insolvency-related events of default with respect to the Company, occurs and is continuing, the trustee, by notice to the Company, or the holders of at least 25% in principal amount of the outstanding Notes by notice to the Company and the trustee, may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid special interest, if any, on, all the outstanding Notes to be due and payable. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture provides that, to the extent the Company so elects, the sole remedy for an event of default relating to certain failures by the Company to comply with certain reporting covenants in the Indenture will, for the first 365 days after the occurrence of such an event of default, consist exclusively of the right to receive additional interest on the Notes.

The Indenture provides that the Company shall not, and shall not permit any subsidiary, to incur any indebtedness that ranks senior to the Notes and that is secured by a perfected first priority security interests in the assets of the Company or any of its subsidiaries; provided, however, the Company and its subsidiaries may incur or issue: (a) any Indebtedness that is authorized by holders of at least 51% in aggregate principal amount of Notes then outstanding in accordance with the Indenture; and (b) for the avoidance of doubt, any securitization financings that may be completed from time to time by the Company and/or its subsidiaries.

The Indenture provides that the Company shall not consolidate with or merge with or into, or sell, convey, transfer or lease all or substantially all of the consolidated properties and assets of the Company and its subsidiaries, taken as a whole, to, another person (other than any such sale, conveyance, transfer or lease to one or more of the Company’s direct or indirect wholly owned subsidiaries), unless: (i) the resulting, surviving or transferee person (if not the Company) is a “qualified successor entity” (as defined in the Indenture) organized and existing under the laws of the United States of America, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, and such corporation (if not the Company) expressly assumes by supplemental indenture all of the Company’s obligations under the Notes and the Indenture; and (ii) immediately after giving effect to such transaction, no default or event of default has occurred and is continuing under the Indenture.

A copy of the Indenture is attached hereto as Exhibit 4.1 (including the form of the Notes attached hereto as Exhibit 4.2) and is incorporated herein by reference (and this description is qualified in its entirety by reference to such document).

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

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.

The information set forth under Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated herein by reference.

The Company issued the Notes in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). This Current Report on Form 8-K shall not constitute an offer to sell or the solicitation of an offer to buy, nor shall such securities be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements and certificates evidencing such shares contain a legend stating the same.

The Notes and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon conversion of the Notes, if any, have not been registered under the Securities Act and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from registration requirements.

To the extent that any shares of Common Stock are issued upon conversion of the Notes, they will be issued in transactions anticipated to be exempt from registration under the Securities Act by virtue of Section 3(a)(9) thereof because no commission or other remuneration is expected to be paid in connection with conversion of the Notes and any resulting issuance of shares of Common Stock. A maximum of 46,783,621 shares of the Company’s Common Stock may be issued upon conversion of the aggregate $80,000,000 principal amount of Notes issued and issuable under the Indenture based on the initial maximum conversion rate of 584.7953 shares of Common Stock per $1,000 principal amount of Notes, which is subject to customary anti-dilution adjustment provisions.
