    Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
     
    On May 14, 2026, Ideal Power Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Securities Purchase Agreement”) with certain investors (the “Investors”), relating to the offering of 3,220,961 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.001 per share (“Common Stock”), and pre-funded warrants (the “Pre-Funded Warrants”) to purchase up to 2,070,044 shares of Common Stock (the “Offering”). The Pre-Funded Warrants have an exercise price of $0.001 per share, are immediately exercisable and expire when they are exercised in full. The gross proceeds to the Company from the Offering were approximately $30.0 million. The Offering closed on May 18, 2026.
     
    The Offering was made pursuant to the Company’s registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-292492) that was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on December 30, 2025 and declared effective by the Commission on January 9, 2026. A prospectus supplement was filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) under the Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) on May 18, 2026. The Securities Purchase Agreement contains customary representations, warranties and agreements by the Company, customary conditions to closing and indemnification obligations of the Company.
     
    The Company engaged Titan Partners Group LLC, a division of American Capital Partners, LLC (“Titan”), to act as placement agent in the Offering. As compensation for such placement agent services, the Company has agreed to pay Titan an aggregate cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the Offering and $75,000 for Titan’s fees and expenses.
     
    The Company has agreed that it will not, without the prior consent of Titan and the Investors, directly or indirectly sell, offer, contract or grant any option to sell, pledge, transfer, or otherwise dispose of or enter into any transaction which may result in the disposition of any shares of Common Stock or securities convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for any shares of Common Stock (excluding the exercise of certain warrants and or options currently outstanding and exercisable) for a period of 45 days after the closing of the Offering, subject to certain exceptions.
     
    In addition, each of the Company’s directors and executive officers have entered into lock-up agreements pursuant to which each of them has agreed not to, for a period of forty-five (45) days from the closing of the Offering, offer, sell, contract to sell, hypothecate, pledge or otherwise dispose of the Company’s securities, subject to certain exceptions.
