**Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.**

*<u>Purchase Agreement</u>*

On December 22, 2025, Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (the "Company") entered into a Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") with Matthias Aydt (the "Purchaser"), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell one (1) share of the Company's newly designated Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Series A Preferred Stock"), to the Purchaser for a purchase price of $100.00. The closing of the sale and purchase of the share of Series A Preferred Stock was completed on December 22, 2025.

Additional information regarding the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions applicable to the Series A Preferred Stock is set forth under Item 5.03 of this Current Report on Form 8-K.

Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, the Purchaser has agreed to cast the votes represented by the share of Series A Preferred Stock on the Share Authorization Proposal (defined below) in the same proportion as shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, of the Company (the "Class A Common Stock") and shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Class B Common Stock" and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the "Common Stock") are voted (excluding any shares of Common Stock that are not voted, whether due to abstentions, broker non-votes or otherwise) on the Share Authorization Proposal; provided, that unless and until at least one-third (1/3rd) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock on the record date established for the meeting of stockholders at which the Share Authorization Proposal is presented are present in person or represented by proxy at such meeting, the Purchaser will not vote the share of Series A Preferred Stock on the Share Authorization Proposal. The "Share Authorization Proposal" means any proposal approved by the Company's Board of Directors (the "Board") and submitted to the stockholders of the Company to adopt an amendment to the Company's Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation, as amended, to increase the number of authorized Class A Common Stock and Class B Common Stock.

**Item 3.02 Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities.**

The disclosure included in Item 1.01 of this Current Report on Form 8-K is incorporated into this Item 3.02 by reference. The Purchaser is an "accredited investor" and the offer and sale of the share of Series A Preferred Stock was exempt from registration under Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended.

**Item 3.03 Material Modification to Rights of Security Holders.**

The disclosure included in Item 5.03 related to the Series A Certificate of Designation (as defined below) is incorporated into this Item 3.03 by reference. Prior to the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, stockholder approval of the Share Authorization Proposal required the affirmative approval of a majority of the voting power of the outstanding shares of Common Stock and shares of the Company's Series B Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the "Series B Preferred Stock"). Following the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock, stockholder approval of the Share Authorization Proposal requires affirmative approval from a majority of the voting power of the shares of Common Stock, Series B Preferred Stock and the share of Series A Preferred Stock, voting together as a single class. The Purchaser will cast the votes represented by the share of Series A Preferred Stock on the Share Authorization Proposal in a manner that mirrors the votes cast by holders of Common Stock on the Share Authorization Proposal. Prior to the issuance of the share of Series A Preferred Stock, abstentions and any other non-votes would have had the same effect as a vote against the Share Authorization Proposal. Following the issuance of the share of Series A Preferred Stock, abstentions and any other non-votes on the Share Authorization Proposal will still technically have the same effect as a vote against such proposal, but because the share of Series A Preferred Stock has a high number of votes and will vote in a manner that mirrors votes actually cast by the holders of Common Stock (which does not include abstentions or any other non-votes), abstentions and any other non-votes will have no effect on the manner in which the Series A Preferred Stock votes are cast.

**Item 5.03 Amendments to Articles of Incorporation or Bylaws; Change in Fiscal Year.**

*Certificate of Designation of Preferences Designating the Series A Preferred Stock*

On December 19, 2025, the Company filed a Certificate of Designation of Preferences, Rights and Limitations of Series A Preferred Stock (the "Series A Certificate of Designation") with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware. The Series A Certificate of Designation designates one (1) share of the Company's preferred stock as Series A Preferred Stock, and establishes and designates the preferences, rights and limitations thereof. The Series A Certificate of Designation became effective upon filing. Pursuant to the Series A Certificate of Designation:

*Convertibility*. The share of Series A Preferred Stock is not convertible into, or exchangeable for, shares of any other class or series of stock or other securities of the Company.

*Dividends*. The share of Series A Preferred Stock shall not be entitled to receive dividends.

*Voting*. The share of Series A Preferred Stock will have 7,000,000,000 votes, but has the right to vote only on the Share Authorization Proposal and until such time as the Share Authorization Proposal is approved by the stockholders, and will have no voting rights except (i) with respect to the Share Authorization Proposal in which its votes are cast for and against the Share Authorization Proposal in the same proportion as shares of Common Stock are voted for and against the Share Authorization Proposal (without regard to any shares of Common Stock that are not voted, whether due to abstentions, or otherwise not counted as votes for or against the Share Authorization Proposal) and (ii) unless the holders of one-third (1/3rd) of the outstanding shares of Common Stock as of the record date to be set by the Board are present, in person or by proxy, at the meeting of stockholders at which the Share Authorization Proposal is submitted for stockholder approval (or any adjournment thereof). The share of Series A Preferred Stock will vote together with the Common Stock as a single class on the Share Authorization Proposal. The Series A Preferred Stock has no other voting rights, except as may be required by the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware.

*Rank; Liquidation*. Upon a liquidation, bankruptcy, reorganization, merger, acquisition, sale, dissolution or winding up of the Company, whether voluntarily or involuntarily, pursuant to which assets of the Company or consideration received by the Company are to be distributed to the stockholders, the holder of Series A Preferred Stock will be entitled to receive, before any payment is made to the holders of Common Stock by reason of their ownership thereof, an amount equal to $100.00.

*Transfer Restrictions*. The Series A Preferred Stock may not be transferred at any time prior to stockholder approval of the Share Authorization Proposal without the prior written consent of the Board.

*Redemption*. The outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock will be redeemed in whole, but not in part, for a redemption price of $100.00, payable out of funds lawfully available therefor, upon the earlier of (i) any time such redemption is ordered by the Company's Board in its sole discretion, automatically and effective on such time and date specified by the Board in its sole discretion, or (ii) automatically immediately following the approval by the stockholders of the Company of both Shareholder Proposals.

The foregoing summary of the Series A Certificate of Designation does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Series A Certificate of Designation, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

**Certificate of Designation**

**of**

**Preferences, Rights and Limitations of**

**Series A Preferred Stock**

Pursuant to Sections 151 of the

General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware

**Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc.**, a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***"), hereby certifies that the following recital and resolution were duly adopted by the board of directors of the Company (the "***Board***"), in accordance with the provisions of Sections 151 of the General Corporation Law of the State of Delaware, as amended (the "***DGCL***"), on December 19, 2025, which resolution provides for the creation of a series of the Company's Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share, which is designated as "***Series A Preferred Stock***," with the rights, preferences, privileges and restrictions set forth therein.

**WHEREAS**, the Third Amended and Restated Certificate of Incorporation of the Company (as amended, the "***Certificate of Incorporation***"), authorizes the issuance of 250,401,985 shares of capital stock, consisting of (i) 232,470,985 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("***Common Stock***"), divided into two series of common stock composed of (A) 228,041,297 shares of Class A Common Stock (the "***Class A Common Stock***"), and (B) 4,429,688 shares of Class B Common Stock (the "***Class B Common Stock***"); and (ii) 17,931,000 shares of preferred stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("***Preferred Stock***"), issuable from time to time in one or more series, and further provides that the Board is authorized to provide for the issue of all or any of the shares of Preferred Stock in one or more series;

**WHEREAS**, Article IV, Section 4.2 of the Certificate of Incorporation provides that the Board is authorized to provide from time to time by resolution or resolutions for the creation and issuance, out of the authorized and unissued shares of the Preferred Stock, of one or more series of Preferred Stock by filing a certificate pursuant to the DGCL, setting forth such resolution and, with respect to each such series, establishing the designation of such series and the number of shares to be included in such series and fixing the voting powers (full or limited, or no voting power), preferences and relative, participating, optional or other special rights, and the qualifications, limitations and restrictions thereof, of the shares of each such series;

**WHEREAS**, the Board has determined that it is reasonable, advisable, fair and in the best interests of the Company and its stockholders to establish and issue a new series of Preferred Stock, designated as Series A Preferred Stock (the "***Series A Preferred Stock***"), consisting of one authorized share and to establish the rights, powers, preferences, privileges and restrictions of the Series A Preferred Stock;

**WHEREAS**, Article IV, Section 4.4 of the Certificate of Incorporation requires the approval of the holders of a majority of then-outstanding shares of the Company's Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("***Class B Common Stock***") for the Board to create a new class of shares each of which bear or may bear more than one vote per share;

**WHEREAS**, the holder of all of the issued and outstanding Class B Common Stock approved the issuance of the Series A Preferred Stock; and

**WHEREAS**, Nasdaq Listing Rule 5640 prohibits corporate actions that would disparately reduce or restrict existing stockholder rights, including through the issuance of super-voting preferred stock, however Nasdaq has previously approved the implementation of super-voting preferred stock in the stockholder meeting context, under certain circumstances and in consultation with the exchange.

**NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED** that, pursuant to the authority vested in the Board in accordance with the provisions of Article IV of the Certificate of Incorporation and the provisions of Section 151 of the DGCL, the Board hereby establishes and issues the Series A Preferred Stock with the rights, powers, preferences, privileges and restrictions thereof.

**Approval of Series A Preferred Stock**

**6.** **Redemption.** 

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;**6.1.** The outstanding share of Series A Preferred Stock shall be redeemed in whole, but not in part, out of funds lawfully available therefor, upon the earlier of (i) any time such redemption is ordered by the Board in its sole discretion, automatically and effective on such time and date specified by the Board in its sole discretion, or (ii) automatically immediately following the approval by the stockholders of the Company of the Share Authorization Proposal (any such redemption pursuant to this Section 6.1, the "  ***Redemption*** ").

Upon such Redemption, the share of Series A Preferred Stock redeemed pursuant to this Certificate of Designation shall be automatically retired and restored to the status of an authorized but unissued share of Preferred Stock. Notice of a meeting of the Company's stockholders for the submission to such stockholders of any proposal to approve a Share Authorization Proposal shall constitute notice of the Redemption of the share of Series A Preferred Stock at the Redemption Time pursuant to Section 6.1(ii) hereof. In connection with the filing of this Certificate of Designation, the Company has set apart funds for payment for the Redemption of the share of Series A Preferred Stock and shall continue to keep such funds apart for such payment through the payment of the purchase price for the Redemption of such share.

**7.** **Severability.** Whenever possible, each provision hereof shall be interpreted in a manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision hereof is held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, then such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating or otherwise adversely affecting the remaining provisions hereof.

**This Purchase Agreement** (this "***Agreement***") is made as of December 22, 2025, by and between the purchaser listed on the signature page hereto (the "***Purchaser***") and **Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc.**, a Delaware corporation (the "***Company***").

**Recitals**

**Whereas**, the Company desires to sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser desires to purchase from the Company, one (1) share of Series A Preferred Stock, par value $0.0001 per share ("***Series A Preferred Stock***"), for the purchase price of $100.00 (the "***Purchase Price***"); and

**Whereas**, the Series A Preferred Stock shall have the rights, preferences, privileges, qualifications, limitations and restrictions set forth in the Certificate of Designation of Series A Preferred Stock (the "***Series A COD***"), substantially in the form attached hereto as **Exhibit A**, which shall be filed by the Company with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware prior to the Closing (as defined below).

**Now, Therefore**, in consideration of the foregoing premises and the respective representations and warranties, covenants and agreements contained herein, the receipt and sufficiency of which is hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Purchaser agree as follows:

**Article I: Sale and Purchase**

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.1. Upon the terms and subject to the conditions herein contained, the Company agrees to sell to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase from the Company, at the Closing, one (1) share of Series A Preferred Stock for the Purchase Price. The sale and purchase of the share of Series A Preferred Stock pursuant to this Agreement is referred to herein as the "***Stock Purchase***."

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.2. At or prior to the Closing, the Purchaser will pay the Purchase Price by wire transfer of immediately available funds in accordance with wire instructions provided by the Company to the Purchaser prior to the Closing, or by check or money order payable to the Company.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;1.3. Subject to the satisfaction of each of the conditions set forth in Article IV and Article V hereof (to the extent not waived in accordance therewith), the closing of the Stock Purchase (the "***Closing***") shall take place remotely on the date hereof via the exchange of documents and signatures (the date on which such Closing occurs is hereinafter referred to as the "***Closing Date***").

**Article II: Covenants, Representations and Warranties of the Purchaser**

The Purchaser hereby covenants as follows, and makes the following representations and warranties, each of which is and shall be true and correct on the date hereof, to the Company. All such covenants, representations and warranties shall survive the Closing.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.1. **Power and Authorization.** The Purchaser has the power, authority and capacity to execute and deliver this Agreement, to perform his obligations hereunder, and to consummate the Stock Purchase contemplated hereby.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.2. **Valid and Enforceable Agreement; No Violations.** This Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Purchaser and constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Purchaser, enforceable against the Purchaser in accordance with its terms, except that such enforcement may be subject to (a) bankruptcy, insolvency, fraudulent transfer, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting or relating to enforcement of creditors' rights generally, and (b) general principles of equity, whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding at law or in equity (the "***Enforceability Exceptions***"). This Agreement and the consummation of the Stock Purchase will not materially violate, conflict with or result in a breach of or default under (i) any agreement or instrument to which the Purchaser is a party or by which the Purchaser or any of his assets are bound, or (ii) any laws, regulations or governmental or judicial decrees, injunctions or orders applicable to the Purchaser.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.3. **Accredited Investor.** The Purchaser is an "accredited investor" within the meaning of Rule 501(a) of Regulation D promulgated under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "***Securities Act***"), and is acquiring the Series A Preferred Stock hereunder for investment for his own account and not with a view to, or for resale in connection with, any distribution thereof in a manner that would violate the registration requirements of the Securities Act. Purchaser is able (i) to bear the economic risk of its investment in the Company, (ii) to hold the Series A Preferred Stock for an indefinite period of time, and (iii) presently and, based on existing conditions, hereafter to afford a complete loss of such investments. In making its decision to invest in the Company, Purchaser has relied solely upon independent investigations made by it and by its own professional financial and other advisors. Purchaser has been given the opportunity to obtain information and to examine all documents relating to the Company, and to ask questions of, and to receive answers from, the Company or any persons acting on their behalf concerning the Company and the terms and conditions of this investment, and to obtain any additional information it desires to verify the accuracy of any information previously furnished. All such questions have been answered to Purchaser's full satisfaction, and all information and documents, records and books pertaining to this investment which it has requested have been made available to it.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.4. **No Public Market.** The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that no public market exists (and it is likely that none will ever exist) for the Series A Preferred Stock and the share of Series A Preferred Stock is subject to transfer restrictions as set forth in the Series A COD.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;2.5. **Transfer Restrictions.** The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees as follows:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(a) The Series A Preferred Stock has not been registered for sale under the Securities Act, in reliance on Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act; the Company does not currently intend to register the Series A Preferred Stock under the Securities Act at any time in the future.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;(b) The Purchaser understands that there are substantial restrictions on the transferability of the Series A Preferred Stock and that the book-entry certificate representing the Series A Preferred Stock will bear restrictive legends in substantially the following form (and a stop-transfer order may be placed against transfer of such certificates or other instruments):

THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY HAVE NOT BEEN REGISTERED UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OF 1933, AS AMENDED (THE "SECURITIES ACT"), OR ANY STATE SECURITIES LAWS, AND NEITHER SUCH SECURITIES NOR ANY INTEREST THEREIN MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR OTHERWISE TRANSFERRED UNLESS (1) A REGISTRATION STATEMENT WITH RESPECT THERETO IS EFFECTIVE UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT AND ANY APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS, OR (2) AN EXEMPTION FROM SUCH REGISTRATION EXISTS AND THE COMPANY RECEIVES AN OPINION OF COUNSEL REASONABLY SATISFACTORY TO THE COMPANY, THAT SUCH SECURITIES MAY BE OFFERED, SOLD, PLEDGED, ASSIGNED OR TRANSFERRED IN THE MANNER CONTEMPLATED WITHOUT AN EFFECTIVE REGISTRATION STATEMENT UNDER THE SECURITIES ACT OR APPLICABLE STATE SECURITIES LAWS. THE SECURITIES REPRESENTED HEREBY ARE ALSO SUBJECT TO TRANSFER RESTRICTIONS AS SET FORTH IN THE CERTIFICATE OF DESIGNATION OF PREFERENCES, RIGHTS AND LIMITATIONS OF SERIES A PREFERRED STOCK.
