Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On September 22, 2025, the registrant, Laser Photonics Corporation (the “Company” or “Laser Photonics”), entered into a securities purchase agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with certain accredited investors (the “Investors”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Investors in a private placement (the “Offering”) (i) 1,098,902 shares (the “Shares”) of common stock of the Company, $0.001 par value (the “Common Stock”), (ii) series A warrants to purchase up to 1,098,902 shares of Common Stock (the “Series A Warrants”) and (iii) series B warrants to purchase up to 1,098,902 shares of Common Stock (the “Series B Warrants” and, with the Series A Warrants, the “Common Warrants” and, collectively with the Shares, and the Series B Warrants, the “Securities”) for a purchase price of $3.64 per share of Common Stock and related Common Warrants, for a total aggregate gross proceeds of approximately $4 million. The Offering is expected to close on September 29, 2025, subject to customary closing conditions.
The Series A Warrants have an exercise price of $3.40 per share, are exercisable upon issuance (the “Initial Exercise Date”), and expire five years following the effective date of the registration statement to be filed in connection with the Offering. The Series B Warrants have an exercise price of 3.40 per share, are exercisable commencing on the Initial Exercise Date and expire eighteen months following the effective date of the registration statement to be filed in connection with the Offering. Under the terms of the Common Warrants, the Investors may not exercise the warrants to the extent such exercise would cause the Investor, together with its affiliates and attribution parties, to beneficially own a number of shares of common stock which would exceed 4.99% (or, at such Investor’s option upon issuance, 9.99%), of the Company’s then outstanding Common Stock following such exercise, excluding for purposes of such determination shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of such warrants which have not been exercised.
The Purchase Agreement contains representations, warranties, indemnification and other provisions customary for transactions of this nature. The Purchase Agreement also provides that, subject to certain exceptions, until 15 days after the effective date of the registration statement to be filed in connection with Offering, neither the Company nor any of its subsidiaries will issue, enter into any agreement to issue or announce the issuance or proposed issuance of any shares of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents or file a registration statement other than one in connection with the Offering. The Purchase Agreement also provides that, subject to certain exceptions, for a period of one year following the effective date of the registration statement to be filed in connection with Offering, the Company will be prohibited from effecting or entering into an agreement to effect any issuance by the Company or any of its subsidiaries of Common Stock or Common Stock equivalents (or a combination of units thereof) involving a variable rate transaction, which generally includes any transaction in which the Company (i) issues or sells any debt or equity securities that are convertible into, exchangeable or exercisable for, or include the right to receive additional shares of common stock either (A) at a conversion price or exchange rate that is based upon and/or varies with the trading prices of or quotations for the shares of common stock at any time after the initial issuance of such securities, or (B) with a conversion, exercise or exchange price that is subject to being reset at some future date after the initial issuance of such debt or equity security or upon the occurrence of specified or contingent events directly or indirectly related to the business of the Company or the market for the common stock or (ii) enters into any agreement, whereby the Company may issue securities at a future determined price (including but not limited to, certain “at-the-market offerings” as described more fully in the Purchase Agreement).
As part of the Offering, the Company entered into a Registration Rights Agreement, dated September 22, 2025, with the Investors, pursuant to which the Company agreed to register the resale of the shares of Common Stock sold in the Offering and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise of the Common Warrants. The Company will use its commercially reasonable best efforts to file the registration statement by the 15th calendar day after the date of the Registration Rights Agreement and cause the registration statement to be declared effective within 45 days of September 22, 2025 (or 75 days in the event the registration statement is reviewed in “full”). If the Company fails to meet the specified filing deadlines or keep the registration statement effective, subject to certain permitted exceptions, the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement provide that the Company will be required to pay certain liquidated damages to the Investor. The Company also agreed, among other things, to indemnify the Investors under the registration statement from certain liabilities and to pay all fees and expenses incident to the Company’s performance of or compliance with the Registration Rights Agreement.

The Offering of the Securities, including any shares of Common Stock issuable thereunder, was not registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) and the Securities were offered and sold pursuant to the exemption provided in Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act.
H.C. Wainwright & Co., LLC acted as the exclusive placement agent for the issuance and sale of the Securities. The Company has agreed to pay up to an aggregate cash fee equal to 7.0% of the gross proceeds received by the Company from the Offering. The Company also agreed to pay Wainwright up to $75,000 for fees and expenses of legal counsel and other out-of-pocket expenses. The Company also agreed to issue to Wainwright, or its designees, unregistered warrants to purchase up to 7.0% of the aggregate number of the Shares sold to the Investors (or warrants to purchase up to 76,923 shares of Common Stock) at an exercise price per share of $4.55, which will be exercisable commencing on the Stockholder Approval Date and a have term of five years after effective date of the registration statement to be filed in connection with this Offering (the “Placement Agent Warrant”). The Placement Agent Warrant and the shares of Common Stock issuable upon exercise thereof, will be issued in reliance on the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act as transactions not involving a public offering and in reliance on similar exemptions under applicable state laws.
