Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On September 14, 2026, XCF Global, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“XCF Global” or the “Company”), DevvStream Corp., an Alberta corporation (“DevvStream”), Southern Energy Renewables Inc., a Louisiana corporation (“Southern Energy”), Southern Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of XCF Global (“Southern Merger Sub”), DevvStream Merger Sub Inc., a Delaware corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of XCF Global (“DevvStream Merger Sub”), EEME Energy SPV I LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“EEME”), and GL PART SPV I, LLC, a Delaware limited liability company (“GL”), entered into Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”) to the Business Combination Agreement, dated as of April 13, 2026 (the “BCA”), by and among the Company, DevvStream, Southern Energy, Southern Merger Sub and DevvStream Merger Sub.

The Amendment provides for the following material modifications to the BCA:

Amendments to Merger Consideration

The Amendment amends the definitions of “Southern Consideration Shares” and “DevvStream Consideration Shares” to adjust the pro forma ownership percentages of the parties following the consummation of the mergers contemplated by the BCA (the “Mergers”). As amended:

●

The Southern Consideration Shares are defined as a number of fully-paid and non-assessable XCF Global Common Shares equal to approximately 28.75% of the aggregate number of XCF Global Common Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the effective time of the Mergers (the “Effective Time”), such that the former holders of Southern Energy shares will hold approximately 20% of the XCF Global Common Shares immediately following the Effective Time (reduced from approximately 23.3% as originally contemplated by the BCA).

●

The DevvStream Consideration Shares are defined as a number of fully-paid and non-assessable XCF Global Common Shares equal to approximately 14.99% of the aggregate number of XCF Global Common Shares issued and outstanding immediately prior to the Effective Time, such that the former holders of DevvStream shares will hold approximately 10.43% of the XCF Global Common Shares immediately following the Effective Time (increased from approximately 10.0% as originally contemplated by the BCA).

●

XCF Global’s existing stockholders immediately prior to the Effective Time will hold approximately 69.57% of the XCF Global Common Shares issued and outstanding immediately following the Effective Time (increased from approximately 66.7% as originally contemplated by the BCA).

Amendments to Closing Conditions

The Amendment deletes or modifies the following closing conditions under the BCA:

●

Minimum Southern Capitalization Condition. The requirement that the aggregate amount of Southern Energy’s unrestricted cash and cash equivalents plus all “Plant Conversion Funding” funded to XCF Global prior to the Effective Time equal at least $10,000,000 was deleted.

●

Southern Investment Bank Condition. The requirements that Southern Energy have completed an engagement with an investment bank to sell a bond offering and be in an acceptable process of procuring the bond with respect to the issuance of bonds by Southern Energy was deleted.

●

Company Revenue Run-Rate Condition. The requirement that the gross revenue of XCF Global for its blended fuel product exceed $1,000,000,000 on an annualized, go-forward basis no later than June 30, 2026, and that annualized EBITDA equal at least $100,000,000, was deleted.

●

Nasdaq Sweden Condition. The requirement that the XCF Global common shares to be issued have been approved for listing on Nasdaq Sweden (and/or any other European or Asian securities exchange) was deleted.

●

HSR Act Requirements. The requirement that XCF Global obtain clearance under the HSR Act and that such Required Regulatory Approval shall have been made was deleted.

GL Investment Condition

The effectiveness of the Amendment is conditioned on the concurrent closing of a $1,000,000 investment by GL in XCF Global through the Company’s warrant program (the “GL Investment”), under which as previously announced, GL may purchase warrants to acquire common stock of the Company at an exercise price of $2.50 per share, which the Company believes demonstrates GL’s belief in the Company’s potential future growth in shareholder value of the Company.

EEME and GL Post-Closing Funding Commitment

From and after the Closing, (x) within three (3) months following the closing of the business combination, each of EEME and GL shall fund, or cause to be funded, to XCF Global cash proceeds in an aggregate amount of not less than $4,373,000 plus the Shortfall Amount (as defined below), and (y) within twelve (12) months following the closing of the business combination, each of EEME and GL shall use commercially reasonable efforts to fund, or cause to be funded, to XCF Global cash proceeds in an additional aggregate amount of not less than $50,000,000, in the case of each of clauses (x) and (y) whether funded by EEME, GL or a combination thereof and whether through XCF Global’s warrant program or through any other financing arrangement mutually agreed between EEME or GL, as applicable, and XCF Global ((x) and (y) together, the “Funding Commitment”). The “Shortfall Amount” shall mean the amount by which $ 4,627,000 exceeds the sum of (x) any amounts set forth on Schedule 5.3 to the Amendment that XCF Global reasonably determines were not invested into Southern Energy prior to the date of the Amendment and (y) any amounts set forth on such Schedule 5.3 that were so invested into Southern Energy but that XCF Global reasonably determines were not utilized by Southern Energy appropriately. In addition, EEME and GL have agreed to the additional post-Closing commitment described in a schedule to the Amendment.
