Rhea-AI Filing Summary

FreeCast, Inc. updated two key financing arrangements that affect how it can raise cash and manage debt. The company amended its Equity Purchase Agreement with Amiens Technology Investments, LLC, which allows sales of up to $50 million of Class A common stock. The amendment doubles the pricing period used to calculate sale prices from five to ten trading days and gives FreeCast 30 days, instead of 15, to file the initial resale registration statement after its Nasdaq trading start on March 10, 2026.

FreeCast also detailed activity under a revolving convertible promissory note with Nextelligence, Inc., an entity controlled by its CEO. The note allows up to $5 million in borrowings at 12.0% annual interest, convertible into Class A shares at $8.00 per share. After an additional $200,000 borrowing on March 30, 2026, total principal outstanding under the note was $4,889,052 as of April 3, 2026, due no later than June 30, 2026, with an 18.0% default interest rate.

Insights

FreeCast leans on an equity line and insider convertible debt for near-term funding.

FreeCast relies on two flexible but potentially dilutive funding tools. The equity purchase arrangement with Amiens Technology Investments lets the company sell up to $50 million of Class A stock, with prices tied to volume-weighted average price over a longer, ten-day window.

The revolving convertible note with Nextelligence, controlled by the CEO, carries a 12.0% interest rate and an $8.00 per-share conversion price. As of April 3, 2026, outstanding principal reached $4,889,052, due by June 30, 2026, with an 18.0% default rate, underscoring meaningful short-term obligations that could be met either with cash or equity conversion.

Equity Purchase Agreement financial
"The Amendment amends an Equity Purchase Agreement (the "EPA") we entered into with the Investor on December 8, 2025"
An equity purchase agreement is a legal contract that sets the terms for buying ownership shares in a company, including the number of shares, price, and any conditions that must be met before the sale closes. For investors it matters because it determines how much ownership and control they gain, how the company’s value and share count change, and what protections or obligations each side has—think of it as the detailed bill of sale and ground rules for a stock purchase.
Pricing Period financial
"based on 95% of the VWAP ... over a certain number of trading days following an advance request (the "Pricing Period")"
volume-weighted average price financial
"the purchase price ... is based on 95% of the VWAP (volume-weighted average price) over a certain number of trading days"
Volume-weighted average price (VWAP) is the average price of a stock over a specific time period where each trade is weighted by the number of shares traded, so larger trades influence the average more than small ones. Investors and traders use VWAP as a reference point to judge whether trades are happening at relatively good or poor prices—like checking the average price paid for an item at a market where bulk purchases count more than single-item buys.
revolving convertible promissory note financial
"the Company entered into a revolving convertible promissory note with Nextelligence, Inc.("Nextelligence") in the principal amount of not more than $5 million"
Commitment Shares financial
"the formula for determining the number of Commitment Shares (as defined in the EPA) issued to the Investor on certain dates"
Commitment shares are shares that an investor or underwriter agrees in advance to buy as part of a fundraising deal, such as a new stock issuance or rights offering. They matter to investors because these pre-committed purchases reduce the risk that the offering will fail or that remaining shares will be sold at a steep discount, and they signal confidence or support for the transaction—think of it as a guaranteed portion of a crowd-funded goal that makes the whole campaign more likely to succeed.

Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On March 30, 2026, FreeCast, Inc., a Florida corporation (the "Company," "we" or "our") entered into an Amendment to Equity Purchase Agreement (the "Amendment") with Amiens Technology Investments, LLC (the "Investor"). The Amendment amends an Equity Purchase Agreement (the "EPA") we entered into with the Investor on December 8, 2025, pursuant to which the Investor has committed to purchase shares of our Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share. Upon the terms and subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in the EPA, we have the right, but not the obligation, to sell to the Investor, and the Investor is obligated to purchase, up to $50 million in shares of our Class A common stock. Advances under the agreement are conditioned on our compliance with certain customary conditions.

 

Pursuant to the terms of the EPA, the purchase price of the shares of Class A common stock issued under the EPA is based on 95% of the VWAP (volume-weighted average price) over a certain number of trading days following an advance request (the "Pricing Period"). Under the terms of the Amendment, the Pricing Period was extended from five trading days to ten trading days following an advance request.

 

The Amendment also extended the time period within which we have to file with the Securities and Exchange Commission a registration statement for the resale by the Investor of the shares of Class A common stock issued to Investor in accordance with the EPA. Under the terms of the Amendment, the time period within which we are required to file the initial registration statement was extended from 15 to 30 days following the trading day immediately following March 10, 2026, the day our shares of Class A common stock began trading on Nasdaq.

 

Due to the change in the definition of Pricing Period described above, Section 11.04 of the EPA was amended and restated by the Amendment so that the formula for determining the number of Commitment Shares (as defined in the EPA) issued to the Investor on certain dates continues to be based on lower of $10 and the lowest daily VWAP of Class A shares during a five trading day period.

 

The full text of the Amendment is attached as Exhibit 10.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. You are urged to read said exhibit attached hereto in its entirety.

 

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

 

In a Registration Statement on Form S-1, Amendment 9 filed on December 9, 2025, we disclosed that on November 21, 2025, the Company entered into a revolving convertible promissory note with Nextelligence, Inc.("Nextelligence") in the principal amount of not more than $5 million (the "Note"). Nextelligence is controlled by William A. Mobley, Jr., our Chief Executive Officer, Chairman of our board of directors and holder of the majority voting power of the Company.

 

The aggregate outstanding principal balance of all loans under the Note as of the date we entered into the Note was $1,315,552. We borrowed an additional $200,000 under the Note on March 30, 2026. As of April 3, 2026, the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all loans under the Note is $4,889,052.

 

In lieu of repayment, at Nextelligence’s option, all or part of the outstanding principal and accrued interest ("Debt") is convertible into shares of our Class A common stock ("Shares") at a conversion price of $8.00 per Share.

 

All loans made under the Note accrue interest at a fixed rate per annum equal to 12.0%. The outstanding principal and accrued and unpaid interest under the Note are due and payable no later than June 30, 2026. We have the right to prepay the Note, in whole or in part, at any time; provided, however, we must provide Nextelligence five days prior written notice of our intention to make such prepayment.

 

If we: (i) fail to comply with any provision under the Note, including, but not limited to, failing to immediately pay all amounts due to Nextelligence when due in accordance with the Note; or (ii) become subject to certain bankruptcy or insolvency events, at the option of Nextelligence, the unpaid principal amount of the Note, accrued interest thereon, any fees or any other sums payable thereunder will thereafter until paid in full bear interest at a rate per annum equal to 18.0%.

 

In case of a stock split, a stock combination, or a reverse stock split of the Shares, the number of Shares into which any Debt may be converted and the conversion price shall be proportionately adjusted.

 

The full text of the Note is attached as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and is incorporated by reference herein. You are urged to read said exhibit attached hereto in its entirety.
