2025 Senior Loan

On November 14, 2025, the Company entered into a privately negotiated exchange agreement (the “Exchange Agreement”) with certain holders (the “Exchanging Holders”) of its outstanding 2028 Convertible Notes (as described below). Pursuant to the Exchange Agreement, the Company exchanged $328.6 million of aggregate capitalized principal amount of the 2028 Notes for the following consideration (the “Exchange Transaction”): (i) $186.5 million in aggregate principal loan amount (the “2025 Senior Loan”) issued under a Credit and Security Agreement, dated November 14, 2025, by and among the Company, as parent, ChargePoint, Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, as borrower (the “Borrower”), certain subsidiaries of the Company, as subsidiary guarantors (the “Subsidiary Guarantors”), the Exchanging Holders, and an administrative and collateral agent (the “2025 Credit Agreement”) (ii) $25.0 million in cash, and (iii) warrants to purchase up to 1,671,000 shares of the Company’s Common Stock at an exercise price of $25.00 per share (the “2025 Warrants), as discussed in Note 9, Stock Warrants. ChargePoint did not receive any cash proceeds from the Exchange Transaction. Following the consummation of the Exchange Transaction, $11.3 million in capitalized principal amount of 2028 Convertible Notes remains outstanding.
The Exchange Transaction was accounted for under ASC 470-60 - Troubled Debt Restructurings by Debtors. The Company recorded a gain of $11.2 million, which resulted in a decrease of basic net loss per share of $0.48, during the year ended January 31, 2026 in its consolidated statement of operations. The gain was calculated as the difference between the carrying amount of the exchanged 2028 Convertible Notes and the undiscounted cash flows of the 2025 Senior Loan, adjusted for debt issuance costs. As a result, no interest expense will be recognized for the 2025 Senior Loan through the maturity date of January 31, 2030. The Company incurred issuance costs related to the 2025 Senior Loan of approximately $4.9 million which were recorded as a reduction to the gain on debt exchange on its consolidated statement of operations.
The Borrower’s obligations under the 2025 Credit Agreement are guaranteed by the Company and the Subsidiary Guarantors. In addition, the 2025 Senior Loan is secured by (i) a first priority pledge of the equity securities of the Borrower and certain of its subsidiaries, subject to customary exceptions (including a 65% limitation on pledges of first-tier foreign subsidiary equity, except with respect to foreign subsidiaries in specified jurisdictions), and (ii) first priority security interests in substantially all current and after-acquired tangible and intangible personal property of the Borrower, the Company and each Subsidiary Guarantor, including intellectual property, in each case, subject to customary exclusions, permitted liens and other agreed limitations.
The 2025 Senior Loan matures on January 31, 2030, and the loans thereunder (the “Loans”) do not amortize, except as described below. In accordance with the 2025 Credit Agreement, the Borrower was obligated to pay up to an aggregate of $30.0 million of the Loans (the “Short-Term Loans”) in two installments originally due on November 24, 2025 and February 16, 2026 (each such date, a “Prepayment Date”), pursuant to a formulaic repayment measure based on volume-weighted average price share of Common Stock for the thirty consecutive trading days preceding the applicable Prepayment Date. The Company made separate payments of $14.8 million and $9.6 million on the respective Prepayment Dates in connection with the cancellation of the Short-Term Loans. The remaining Loans of $156.5 million will bear interest at a fixed rate of 12.00% per annum, payable quarterly. All future interest payment obligations on the 2025 Senior Loans are included in the carrying value of the 2025 Senior Loans. As a result, future interest payments are reported as a reduction in the carrying value of the 2025 Senior Loans and not as interest expense. As of January 31, 2026, $17.4 million and $61.2 million of interest is recorded as debt, current and debt, non-current, respectively, in the Consolidated Balance Sheet.
For any interest payment date occurring on or prior to November 14, 2026, the Company may elect to pay interest in shares of common stock of the Company (“Interest Shares”) in lieu of cash. Interest Shares will be valued based on the thirty-day trailing volume-weighted average price (“VWAP”) preceding the applicable interest payment date. Issuance of Interest Shares is subject to a cap of 19.99% of the Company’s outstanding shares to comply with NYSE listing requirements, unless stockholder approval is obtained. Subsequent to the Exchange Transaction the Company issued 193,210 of shares of Common Stock valued at $1.7 million in Interest Shares during the year ended January 31, 2026.
The 2025 Credit Agreement permits the Borrower to make voluntary prepayments at its discretion. On or prior to the second anniversary of the closing date, voluntary principal payments in respect of the Loans and mandatory principal payments in connection with any acceleration of the Loans will be subject to a customary make-whole premium based on the yield on U.S. Treasury notes with a maturity closest to the second anniversary of the closing date plus 50 basis points. Thereafter, principal payments in respect of such Loans will be subject to a premium equal to 2.00% after the second anniversary of the closing date and on or prior to the third anniversary of the closing date and 0.00% thereafter. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any principal payments in respect of such Loans made in connection with a “change of control” may be prepaid at (1) 3.00% on or prior to the second anniversary of the closing date, (2) 2.00% after the second anniversary of the closing date and on or prior to the third anniversary of the closing date and (3) 0.00% thereafter.
The 2025 Credit Agreement also requires the Borrower to apply net cash proceeds from certain asset dispositions, in excess of an aggregate threshold of $25.0 million and subject to customary exceptions, to prepay outstanding Loans under the 2025 Senior Loan facility or other indebtedness that ranks pari passu in right of payment and security with the 2025 Credit Agreement. Such prepaid amounts in the 2025 Credit Agreement may not be re-borrowed.
The 2025 Credit Agreement contains (i) customary affirmative and negative covenants that, among other things, restrict the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur additional indebtedness, incur liens, make investments or acquisitions, declare or pay dividends or other restricted payments, dispose of assets, or enter into transactions with affiliates and (ii) customary events of default, including a cross-default to material indebtedness and bankruptcy-related triggers. In addition, the 2025 Credit Agreement requires the Borrower to maintain minimum liquidity of $25.0 million, tested on the last business day of each fiscal month commencing on November 30, 2025. Liquidity includes unrestricted cash and cash equivalents held by the Credit Parties and up to $10.0 million in unused commitments under any revolving credit facility.
As of January 31, 2026, the estimated fair value of the 2025 Senior Loan was $153.3 million, using Level 2 fair value inputs. The fair value of the 2025 Senior Loan is estimated using a binomial lattice model that is primarily affected by market interest rates.

The following table presents the Company’s interest expense related to convertible debt:

Total interest expense$21,641 $23,225 
_______________
(1) Contractual interest is calculated using cash interest rate, noted below, except for the periods when PIK is elected, in which case PIK interest rate is used.
In April 2022, the Company completed a private placement of $300.0 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured Convertible Senior PIK Toggle Notes (the “Original Convertible Notes”), the terms of which were amended in October 2023, as described below (the “Notes Amendment”). Prior to the Notes Amendment, the maturity date of the Original Convertible Notes was April 1, 2027. The Original Convertible Notes were sold in a private placement in reliance on the exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act.
The Original Convertible Notes bore interest at 3.50% per annum, to the extent paid in cash (“Cash Interest”), or 5.00% per annum, to the extent paid in kind through the issuance of additional Original Convertible Notes (“PIK Interest”). Interest is payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1st and October 1st of each year, beginning on October 1, 2022. The Company can elect to make any interest payment through Cash Interest, PIK Interest or any combination thereof.
The Original Convertible Notes are convertible, based on the applicable conversion rate, into cash, shares of the Company’s Common Stock or a combination thereof, at the Company’s election. The initial conversion rate was 2.0806 shares per $1,000 principal
amount of the Original Convertible Notes, subject to customary anti-dilution adjustment in certain circumstances, which represented an initial conversion price of approximately $480.63 per share.
Under the terms of the Original Convertible Notes, prior to January 1, 2027, the Original Convertible Notes will be convertible at the option of the holders only upon the occurrence of specified events and during certain periods, and will be convertible on or after January 1, 2027, at any time until the close of business on the second scheduled trading day immediately preceding the maturity date of the Original Convertible Notes.
Holders of the Original Convertible Notes may convert all or a portion of their Original Convertible Notes prior to the close of business on January 1, 2027, only under the following circumstances:
•during any calendar quarter commencing after the calendar quarter ended on September 30, 2022, if the Company’s closing Common Stock price for at least 20 trading days out of the most recent 30 consecutive trading days of the preceding calendar quarter is greater than or equal to 130% of the current conversion price of the Original Convertible Notes on each applicable trading day;
•during the five business day period after any ten consecutive trading days in which the trading price per $1,000 principal amount of Original Convertible Notes for each trading day of such ten consecutive trading day period is less than 98% of the product of the Company’s closing Common Stock price and the conversion rate of the Original Convertible Notes on each such trading day;
•if the Company calls the Original Convertible Notes for redemption, at any time prior to the close of business on the second business day immediately preceding the redemption date; or
•upon the occurrence of specified corporate events, including certain distributions, the occurrence of a fundamental change or a transaction resulting in the Company’s Common Stock converting into other securities or property or assets.
The Original Convertible Notes will be redeemable, in whole or in part, at the Company’s option at any time on or after April 21, 2025, and before the 41st scheduled trading day immediately before the maturity date. The redemption price will be equal to the aggregate principal amount of the Original Convertible Notes to be redeemed, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to, but excluding, the redemption date. In addition, a holder may elect to convert its Original Convertible Notes during any such redemption period, in which case the applicable conversion rate may be increased in certain circumstances if the Original Convertible Notes are converted after they are called for redemption.
Additionally, if the Company undergoes a fundamental change or a change in control transaction (each such term as defined in the indenture governing the Original Convertible Notes), subject to certain conditions, holders may require the Company to purchase for cash all or any portion of their Original Convertible Notes. The fundamental change repurchase price will be 100% of the capitalized principal amount of the Original Convertible Notes, while the change in control repurchase price will be 125% of the capitalized principal amount of the Original Convertible Notes to be purchased, in each case plus any accrued and unpaid interest to, but excluding, the repurchase date.
The indenture governing the Original Convertible Notes includes a restrictive covenant that, subject to specified exceptions, limits the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries to incur secured debt in excess of $750.0 million. In addition, the indenture governing the Original Convertible Notes contains customary terms and covenants, including certain events of default in which case either the trustee or the holders of at least 25% of the aggregate principal amount of the outstanding Original Convertible Notes may declare 100% of the principal of, and accrued and unpaid interest, if any, on, all the Original Convertible Notes to be due and payable immediately.
On October 24, 2023, the Original Convertible Notes were amended to (1) extend the maturity date from April 1, 2027 to April 1, 2028, (2) increase the Cash Interest rate to 7.0% from 3.5% and PIK Interest rate to 8.5% from 5.0%, (3) increase the initial conversion rate to 4.1667 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the convertible notes from 2.0806 shares per $1,000 principal amount of the convertible notes, which represented a revised initial conversion price of approximately $240.00 per share, and (4) revise the make-whole table to reflect the revised terms of the convertible notes (herein, “2028 Convertible Notes”). Other than those previously stated, the terms of the 2028 Convertible Notes are not substantially different from the terms of Original Convertible Notes. The convertible note conversion rates and conversion price amounts presented in this paragraph have been updated to reflect the Reverse Stock Split as discussed Note 1, Description of Business and Basis of Presentation.
Interest is payable semi-annually on April 1 and October 1 and may be paid in cash, additional notes or a combination thereof. The notes are convertible into cash, shares of Common Stock, or a combination thereof at the Company’s election, subject to customary conversion conditions and anti-dilution adjustments. The indenture governing the notes contains customary events of default and restrictions on the occurrence of certain secured indebtedness.
As of January 31, 2026, the aggregate principal amount of $11.3 million of the 2028 Convertible Notes remained outstanding.
Amortization of debt discount and issuance costs is reported as a component of interest expenses and is computed using the straight-line method over the term of the 2028 Convertible Notes, which approximates the effective interest method. As a result of the Exchange Transaction, the remaining unamortized debt discount and issuance costs related to the 2028 Convertible Notes was $0.5 million as of January 31, 2026. As of January 31, 2026, the effective interest rate on the 2028 Convertible Notes was approximately 9.96%.
The estimated fair value of the 2028 Convertible Notes, as of January 31, 2026 using Level 2 fair value inputs, was $9.4 million. The fair value of the 2028 Convertible Notes was estimated using a binomial lattice model that is primarily affected by market interest rates.

2027 Revolving Credit Facility
On July 27, 2023, the Company entered into a revolving credit agreement by and among the Company, ChargePoint, Inc. (the “Former Borrower”), certain subsidiaries of the Former Borrower as guarantors, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent, and the other lenders party thereto (the “Former Credit Agreement”). The Former Credit Agreement provided for a senior secured revolving credit facility in an initial aggregate principal amount of up to $150.0 million, with a maturity date of January 1, 2027 (the “2027 Revolving Credit Facility”). Pursuant to the Former Credit Agreement, the Former Borrower was permitted from time to time to arrange for one or more increases in the commitments under the 2027 Revolving Credit Facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed $150.0 million, subject to obtaining the consent of the lenders participating in any such increase. Up to $100.0 million of the 2027 Revolving Credit Facility was permitted to be used for the issuance of letters of credit.
On November 14, 2025, the Company terminated the 2027 Revolving Credit Facility in connection with the Exchange Transaction and accordingly, as of January 31, 2026, the Former Borrower had no borrowings or letters of credit outstanding under the Former Credit Agreement.
