Item 8.01 Other Events.
Certificate of Amendment
At the Special Meeting, the Company’s stockholders voted to approve amendments to the Company’s Certificate of Incorporation (the “Amendments”) to (i) establish limits on the foreign ownership of its capital stock to facilitate its compliance with applicable U.S. tax laws, (ii) increase the number of authorized shares of Common Stock of the Company from 355,000,000 shares to 500,000,000 shares and (iii) remove the “only for cause” qualification from the removal of directors provision.
Detailed descriptions of the Amendments were set forth in Proposals 2, 3 and 4 in the Proxy Statement, which descriptions are incorporated herein by reference and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Incorporation (the “Certificate of Amendment”), a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.2 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference. The Board previously approved the Amendments, and they became effective at 12:01 a.m. Eastern Time on December 4, 2025, following the filing of the Certificate of Amendment with the Delaware Secretary of State on December 3, 2025.
Business Update
The Company recently signed a 2.0 GW, fixed-margin offtake contract for 2026 module deliveries, with 3.0 GW of total module sales contracted at fixed margins for G1_Dallas in 2026.
U.S. Department of Justice Subpoenas and U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission Voluntary Document Request
In November 2025, the Company and a Company executive and Board member (the “Individual”) received grand jury subpoenas from the Department of Justice (“DOJ”), which request the production of documents relating to the sale of the Company’s stock in the second half of 2023 on the account of the Individual, who was a director of the Company at that time. Shortly thereafter, the Company received a voluntary document request from the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) seeking similar information. The Company believes that the relevant trades relate to stock that the Individual pledged as collateral against a personal loan, which was approved in accordance with the Company’s insider trading policy. The Company is cooperating with both the DOJ and SEC, and it is not possible at this time to predict the duration, outcome or impact of such matters.
