Item 1.01. Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement
On May 23, 2023, Soluna Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Subscription and Investment Representation Agreement (the “Subscription Agreement”) with David Michaels, its Secretary, who is an accredited investor (the “Purchaser”), pursuant to which the Company agrees to sell to Subscriber, and Subscriber agrees to purchase from the Company, one (1) share of the Company’s Series X Preferred Stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Securities”), which Securities shall have the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth in the Certificate of Designation attached hereto as Exhibit A (the “Certificate of Designation”). Subscriber hereby acknowledges and agrees to the entire terms of the Certificate of Designation, including, without limitation, the voting rights in Section 3, the restrictions on transfer of the Securities in Section 5 and the redemption of the Securities pursuant to Section 6 of the Certificate of Designation. The purchase price will be paid by the Subscriber to the Company in cash at the price of $5,000.00 per share. The sale closed on May 23, 2023. Additional information regarding the rights, preferences, privileges, and restrictions applicable to the Preferred Stock is set forth under Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
The Subscription Agreement contains customary representations and warranties and certain indemnification rights and obligations of the parties.
The foregoing summary of the Subscription Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, such document, which is filed as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities
The disclosure required by this Item is included in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference. Based in part upon the representations of the Purchaser in the Subscription Agreement, the offering and sale of the Preferred Stock was exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year
On May 19, 2023, the Company filed a certificate of designation (the “Certificate of Designation”) with the Secretary of State of Delaware, effective as of the time of filing, designating the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the share of Preferred Stock. The Certificate of Designation provides that the share of Series X Preferred Stock shall have 50,000,000 votes. The outstanding share of Series X Preferred Stock shall vote together with the outstanding shares of common stock, par value $0.001 per share (the “Common Stock”), of the Corporation as a single class exclusively with respect to the Reverse Stock Split (as defined below) and shall not be entitled to vote on any other matter except to the extent required under the Nevada Revised Statutes. As used herein, the term “Reverse Stock Split” means any proposal to adopt an amendment to the Articles of Incorporation to reclassify the outstanding shares of Common Stock into a smaller number of shares of Common Stock at a ratio specified in or determined in accordance with the terms of such amendment.
The Series X Preferred Stock shall have no rights as to any distribution of assets of the Corporation for any reason, including upon a liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, merger, acquisition, sale, dissolution or winding up of the Corporation, whether voluntarily or involuntarily. The Series X Preferred Stock may not be Transferred at any time prior to stockholder approval of the Reverse Stock Split without the prior written consent of the Board of Directors. “Transferred” means, directly or indirectly, whether by merger, consolidation, share exchange, division, or otherwise, the sale, transfer, gift, pledge, encumbrance, assignment, or other disposition of the share of Series X Preferred Stock (or any right, title or interest thereto or therein) or any agreement, arrangement or understanding (whether or not in writing) to take any of the foregoing actions. The share of Series X Preferred Stock redeemed in the Redemption pursuant to this Section 6 shall be redeemed in consideration for the right to receive an amount equal to $5,000.00 in cash (the “Redemption Price”) for the share of Series X Preferred Stock that is owned of record as of immediately prior to the applicable Redemption Time provided in the Certificate of Designation and redeemed pursuant to the Redemption, payable upon the applicable Redemption Time.
The foregoing summary of the Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, such document, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
