Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Newton Golf Company, Inc. entered into a new financing arrangement, increasing its convertible note and warrant program to up to $3,000,000 in unsecured Convertible Notes and Warrants to purchase up to 300,000 shares of common stock.

To date, the company has issued Convertible Notes totaling $1,550,000 and Warrants for 155,000 shares under the March financing. On June 3, 2026, it completed the first closing of the June financing, issuing a $500,000 Convertible Note and a Warrant for 50,000 shares, receiving cash proceeds of $500,000. The notes mature in 18 months, accrue interest at 10% per year paid in kind, and are convertible into common stock at $1.60 per share, while the Warrants have a five-year term and an exercise price of $1.75 per share.

The notes carry a 20% default interest rate and allow optional early repayment by the company and certain conversion features tied to share price and change-of-control events. The securities were issued in a private placement relying on Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D, with piggy-back registration rights for the underlying conversion and warrant shares.

Insights

Newton Golf adds up to $3M in convertible debt plus warrants.

Newton Golf Company expanded its financing, allowing issuance of up to $3,000,000 in unsecured Convertible Notes and Warrants for 300,000 shares. The first June closing brought in $500,000 of cash through a new note and 50,000-share Warrant.

The notes bear 10% annual interest paid in kind, mature in 18 months, and convert at $1.60 per share, while Warrants are exercisable at $1.75 for five years. A 20% default rate and change-of-control repayment or conversion option frame creditor protections.

This private placement under Section 4(a)(2) and Rule 506(b) adds leverage but also near-term liquidity. Piggy-back registration rights for Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares could facilitate future resale once a registration statement is declared effective, depending on market conditions and company actions.

Convertible Notes financial
"the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement ... unsecured promissory notes (the “Convertible Notes”)"
Convertible notes are a type of short-term loan that a company receives from investors, which can later be turned into company shares instead of being paid back in cash. They matter to investors because they offer a way to support a company early on while giving the potential to own a stake in its success if the company grows and later raises more funding.
Warrants financial
"and common stock warrants (the “Warrants” and collectively with the Convertible Notes, the “Securities”)"
Warrants are special documents that give you the right to buy a company's stock at a set price before a certain date. They are often used as a way for companies to attract investors or raise money, and their value can increase if the company's stock price goes up.
piggy-back registration statement regulatory
"include all Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares in the proposed piggy-back registration statement"
Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act regulatory
"in reliance on the exemption afforded by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933"
A legal exemption that allows a company to sell securities directly to a limited group of buyers without registering the offering with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Think of it like a private sale among known parties rather than a public auction: it can speed fundraising and reduce disclosure requirements, but it also means less public information, lower liquidity and resale restrictions—factors investors should consider when weighing risk and exit options.
Rule 506(b) of Regulation D regulatory
"and Rule 506(b) of Regulation D thereunder"
Rule 506(b) of Regulation D is a set of rules that allows companies to raise money from investors without having to register with the government, as long as they follow certain guidelines. It lets companies offer securities to a limited number of investors, often trusted or experienced ones, making it easier and quicker to raise funds compared to traditional methods. This rule matters to investors because it provides access to private investment opportunities that are generally less regulated but still require careful consideration.
change of control financial
"Upon the occurrence of a change of control prior to the conversion or repayment of the Convertible Notes"
A change of control occurs when the ownership or management of a company shifts significantly, such as through a sale, merger, or acquisition, resulting in new leadership or ownership structure. This change can impact the company's direction and decision-making, which is important for investors because it may affect the company's stability, strategy, and future prospects.

Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

As previously disclosed in the Current Reports on Form 8-K by Newton Golf Company, Inc. (the “Company”) on March 16, 2026 and April 13, 2026 (the “Previous Current Reports”), on March 16, 2026, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “March Financing”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue, and the purchasers agreed to purchase, at one or more closings, on the terms and conditions contained in such purchase agreement, unsecured promissory notes (the “Convertible Notes”) in the aggregate funded amount of up to $2,000,000 (the “Maximum Principal Amount”) and common stock warrants (the “Warrants” and collectively with the Convertible Notes, the “Securities”) to purchase shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), at an exercise price of $1.75 per share, subject to adjustments from time to time (the “Exercise Price”).

 

On May 28, 2026, the Board of Directors of the Company approved an increase in the Maximum Principal Amount of $1,000,000. Accordingly, the Company entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell and issue, and the purchasers agreed to purchase, from time to time, in one or more closings, on the terms and conditions contained in the Purchase Agreement, up to $3,000,000 of Convertible Notes and Warrants to purchase up to 300,000 shares of Common Stock (the “Warrant Shares”) at the Exercise Price (the “June Financing”).

 

To date, the Company has issued Convertible Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $1,550,000 and Warrants to purchase up to 155,000 Warrant Shares pursuant to the March Financing. On June 3, 2026, the Company completed the first closing of the June Financing (the “First Closing”) at which the Company issued, and the purchaser purchased, a Convertible Note with a principal amount of $500,000 and a Warrant to purchase 50,000 Warrant Shares. At the First Closing, the Company received cash proceeds of $500,000. Following the First Closing, the Company remains authorized to issue Convertible Notes with an aggregate principal amount of $950,000 and Warrants to purchase up to 95,000 Warrant Shares.

 

The Convertible Notes mature 18 months from the date of issuance (the “Maturity Date”) and accrue interest at an annual rate of 10% per annum with such interest paid in kind. The outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest of the Convertible Notes on or during the 60 days prior to the Maturity Date, effective on the Maturity Date, convert into shares of Common Stock (the “Conversion Shares”) at the conversion price of $1.60 per share of Common Stock, subject to adjustments from time to time (the “Conversion Price”), with the number of Conversion Shares to be determined by dividing the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest that is being converted by the Conversion Price (rounded to the nearest whole share so that no fractional shares are issuable). In the event the Company’s Common Stock closes at or above $3.00 per share for 10 consecutive trading days on or before the Maturity Date, the Company may, in its sole discretion, elect to convert in whole upon 10 calendar days’ written notice to the holders, the Convertible Notes into Conversion Shares at the Conversion Price. Upon the occurrence of a change of control prior to the conversion or repayment of the Convertible Notes, the holders shall have the option, exercisable by written notice to the Company prior to the closing of such change of control, to have the outstanding principal and unpaid accrued interest repaid in full following such closing or convert the outstanding principal balance and unpaid accrued interest into Common Stock at the Conversion Price. The Convertible Notes are repayable by the Company at any time, in whole or in part, at any time prior to the Maturity Date, without penalty. Upon an event of default, all principal and unpaid accrued interest shall become due and payable and shall bear interest during the occurrence of such event of default at a rate of 20.0% per annum. Events of default include, among others, failure to pay any principal or interest amounts under the Convertible Notes, failure to perform material covenants in the Convertible Notes and certain bankruptcy and insolvency conditions of the Company.

 

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to sell at each closing, in addition to a Convertible Note, one accompanying Warrant to purchase the number of Warrant Shares calculated by dividing the principal amount of the holder’s Convertible Note by 10. The Warrants expire five years from the date of issuance. The holder of a Warrant may, in its sole discretion, exercise the Warrant in whole or in part and, in lieu of the payment of the Exercise Price multiplied by the number of shares of Common Stock for which the Warrant is exercisable (and in lieu of being entitled to receive shares of Common Stock) in the manner required by Section 2.2 of the form of Warrant attached to this Current Report as Exhibit 4.1.

 

Under the terms of the Purchase Agreement, the Company agreed to give each purchaser written notice of its intention to file one or more registration statements covering the resale of any shares of Common Stock held by its stockholders. The Company also agreed to include all Conversion Shares and Warrant Shares in the proposed piggy-back registration statement with respect to which the Company has received from a purchaser a written request for inclusion within five calendar days after the date the Company’s notice is sent to the purchaser. The Company shall use its commercially reasonable efforts to cause such piggyback registration statement to be declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission, so as to permit the public resale by such purchaser of the Conversion Shares and/or Warrant Shares pursuant thereto, at the Company’s sole cost and expense and at no cost or expense to such purchaser.

 

The Warrants, the Convertible Notes and the Purchase Agreement include other customary terms and conditions. The above description of the Warrants, the Convertible Notes and the Purchase Agreement are qualified in their entirety by the text of the form of Warrant, the form of Convertible Note and the form of Purchase Agreement, copies of which are attached as Exhibits 4.1, 4.2 and 10.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
