Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

On July 6, 2026, Empery Digital Inc. (the “Company”) and Computershare Trust Company, N.A., as rights agent (the “Rights Agent”), entered into an amendment (the “Amendment”) to that certain Rights Agreement, dated as of February 3, 2025, between the Company and the Rights Agent (the “Rights Agreement”).

 

The Amendment accelerates the expiration of the Company’s preferred share purchase rights (the “Rights”) under the Rights Agreement from the Close of Business (as such term is defined in the Rights Agreement) on February 2, 2027 to the Close of Business on July 6, 2026, and the Rights Agreement will terminate at such time. At the time of the termination of the Rights Agreement, all of the Rights distributed to holders of the Company’s common stock pursuant to the Rights Agreement will expire. No Preferred Shares were issued and outstanding at the time of the Amendment.

 

The foregoing description of the Amendment does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Amendment, which is attached as Exhibit 4.1 hereto and incorporated herein by reference.

In connection with the adoption of the Rights Agreement, on February 3, 2026, the Company filed a Certificate of Designations of Series A Preferred Stock with the Delaware Secretary of State setting forth the rights, powers and preferences of the Series A Preferred Stock issuable upon exercise of the Rights (the “Preferred Shares”). Promptly following the expiration of the Rights and the termination of the Rights Agreement, the Company will file a Certificate of Elimination (the “Certificate of Elimination”) with the Delaware Secretary of State eliminating the Preferred Shares and returning them to authorized but undesignated shares of the Company’s preferred stock.

 

The foregoing is a summary of the terms of the Certificate of Elimination. The summary does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Certificate of Elimination, a copy of which is attached as Exhibit 3.1 and incorporated herein by reference.
