Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.
As previously reported in a Current Report on Form 8-K, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on November 4, 2025, on November 3, 2025, XWELL, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a Securities Exchange and Amendment Agreement with the holders (the “Holders”) of the Company’s Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (“Series G Preferred Stock”), with a par value of $0.01 per share and a stated value of $1,000 per share (“Stated Value”), pursuant to which, the Company agreed to exchange a portion of the Company’s outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock, including all accrued and unpaid dividends thereon equal to $1,553,806.00 in aggregate Stated Value, held by the Holders, for senior secured convertible notes in the aggregate principal amount of $3,387,138.80 (collectively, the “Exchange”). The closing of the Exchange occurred on November 10, 2025 (the “Closing Date”).
In connection with the Exchange, the Company and the Holders agreed to amend certain terms of the Company’s Series G Preferred Stock as set forth in a Certificate of Amendment (the “Certificate of Amendment”) to the Certificate of Designations of the Series G Convertible Preferred Stock (the “Certificate of Designations”) as described below.
On November 7, 2025, the Company filed the Certificate of Amendment with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Certificate of Amendment amends the Certificate of Designations to (i) reduce the conversion price of the Series G Preferred Stock to $1.00, (ii) remove the restrictive covenant requiring the Company to maintain unencumbered, unrestricted cash and cash equivalents on hand in an amount equal to at least 200% of the shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share (“Common Stock”), issuable upon conversion of the outstanding shares of Series G Preferred Stock, (iii) amend the definition of “Make-Whole Amount,” such that it now means an amount equal to the amount of additional dividends that would accrue at the dividend rate then in effect assuming for calculation purposes that the Stated Value as of the Closing Date remained outstanding through and including the Maturity Date (as defined in the Certificate of Designations), (iv) add certain anti-dilution provisions such that the Series G Conversion Price will be subject to price-based adjustment in the event of any issuances of Common Stock, or securities convertible, exercisable or exchangeable for Common Stock, at a price below the then-applicable Series G Conversion Price (subject to certain exceptions), (v) add certain provisions such that the Company and the holder of the shares of Series G Preferred Stock may agree to accelerate the conversion of such shares (including any Deferral Amounts (as defined in the Certificate of Designations)) at a conversion price equal to the lower of (i) the Installment Conversion Price (as defined in the Certificate of Designations) applicable to the current Installment Date and (ii) the greater of the Floor Price and (x) 80% of the dollar volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) of the Common Stock immediately prior to such acceleration, and (y) the average three daily VWAP during the thirty consecutive trading day immediately prior to such acceleration.
The foregoing description of the Certificate of Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, a copy of which is filed as Exhibits 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.
