Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On July 7, 2026, Jones Soda Co. (the “Company”) issued 7,500,000 units (the “Units”) at $0.33 per Unit, for aggregate gross proceeds of $2.5 million (the “Offering”), with each Unit being composed of: (i) one (1) common share in the authorized share structure of the Company (a “Share”); and (ii) one-half (1/2) of a Share purchase warrant (a “Warrant”). Each whole Warrant will be exercisable into one Share (each, a “Warrant Share”) at an exercise price of $0.45 per Warrant Share for a period of 36 months from the date of issuance, subject to the Company having the right at its option to accelerate the expiry date of the Warrants to the date that is 30 days following delivery of a notice of acceleration to holders of Warrants if at any time the closing price of the Common Shares on the OTCQB or other stock exchange or over-the-counter market in the United States or on the Canadian Securities Exchange (the “CSE”) exceeds $0.47 (for the purposes of the CSE, the equivalent in Canadian dollars based on the daily exchange rate published by the Bank of Canada) for a period of five (5) consecutive trading days (the “Warrant Exercise Period”). Each whole Warrant may be exercised at any time during the Warrant Exercise Period upon the voluntary election to exercise by the Warrant holder.
The Units were offered and sold in the Offering: (i) in the United States to accredited investors in reliance on Rule 506(b) of Regulation D under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”); and (ii) outside the United States to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act.
In connection with the issuance of the Units in the Offering, the Company signed on July 7, 2026, a registration rights agreement with each of the purchasers of the Units in the Offering (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, the Company is required to file a registration statement with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) within 30 days from the closing of the Offering that registers for resale the Shares issued in the Offering as well as the Shares issuable of upon the exercise of the Warrants. The failure on the part of the Company to file the registration statement with the SEC within this timeframe may subject the Company to payment of certain monetary penalties.
The foregoing description of the Warrants and the Registration Rights Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the forms of warrant and registration rights agreement, which are filed as Exhibits 4.1 and 10.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated into this Item 1.01 by reference.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The Company cautions that statements in this report and its exhibits that are not a description of historical fact are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words referencing future events or circumstances such as “expect,” “intend,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “believe,” and “will,” among others. Because such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements are based upon the Company’s current expectations and involve assumptions that may never materialize or may prove to be incorrect.

More detailed information about the risks and uncertainties affecting the Company is contained under the heading “Risk Factors” included in the Company’s reports and filings made with the SEC. One should not place undue reliance on these forward-looking statements, which speak only as of the date on which they were made. Because such statements are subject to risks and uncertainties, actual results may differ materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements.
