and the investor signatory hereto (the “Holder”). Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meaning
set forth in the SPA (as defined below).
WHEREAS, on May 15,

date hereof, the “SPA”) with the Holder, pursuant to which the Company agreed to sell, and the Holder agreed to
purchase, among others, that certain Senior Convertible Note (the “Note”) in the original principal amount of $10,000,000;
WHEREAS, the Holder
has converted $671,010 of the original principal amount of the Note such that the outstanding principal amount of the Note is $9,328,990;
WHEREAS, in connection
with the Note and the SPA, the Company, the Holder, and East West Bank (the “Bank”) entered into that certain Deposit
Account Control Agreement dated May 15, 2026, establishing a Holder Control Account (the “Account”);
WHEREAS, the Company
and the Holder desire to amend the Note issued at the Closing to, among other things, (i) permit the prepayment of any portion of the
Outstanding Principal Value and Interest (as defined in the Note) from the Account and (ii) establish a flexible repayment schedule under
the Note; and
WHEREAS, this Amendment
is being entered into concurrently with that certain Amendment No. 1 to Deposit Account Control Agreement, by and between the Company
and the Bank (the “DACA Amendment”).
NOW, THEREFORE,
in consideration of the terms and conditions contained herein, and other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
of which are hereby acknowledged, the Company and the Holder hereby agree as follows:
Section 1. Amendment to
the Note.
1.1 Section 1 of the Note is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“1.
PAYMENTS OF PRINCIPAL. On the Maturity Date, the Company shall pay to the Holder an amount in cash representing all Outstanding
Principal Value, accrued and unpaid Interest on such Outstanding Principal Value and Interest and accrued and unpaid Late Charges (as
defined in Section 24(c)); provided, however, that the Company may prepay all or any portion of the Outstanding Principal
Value and accrued, unpaid Interest or accrued and unpaid Late Charges on Principal and Interest, if any, prior to the Maturity Date. For
the avoidance of doubt, the Company may satisfy such prepayments from the Reserve Collateral in the Holder Control Account (as defined
in Section 14). Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, with respect to any conversion or redemption hereunder, as applicable,
the Company shall convert or redeem, as applicable, in the following order: first, all accrued and unpaid Late Charges on any Outstanding
Principal Value and Interest hereunder and under any other Notes held by the Holder and all other amounts owed to the Holder under any
other Transaction Document; second, all accrued and unpaid Interest and all Make-Whole Amount hereunder and under any other Notes held
by such Holder; third, all other amounts (other than Principal) outstanding under any other Notes held by such Holder; and fourth, all
Outstanding Principal Value outstanding hereunder and under any other Notes held by such Holder, in each case, allocated pro rata among
this Note and such other Notes held by such Holder.”
1.2 Notwithstanding any provision of
the SPA or the Note to the contrary, effective as of the time of execution of this Amendment and the DACA Amendment (the “Effective
Date”), (a) the Company shall no longer have any obligations to the Holder pursuant to the SPA and the Note (as amended pursuant
hereto) other than repayment of (i) the Outstanding Principal Value outstanding as of the Effective Date, (ii) accrued and unpaid Interest
(subject to Section 1.2(b) hereof) and (iii) the Make-Whole Amount and (b) Interest (as defined in the Note) shall cease to accrue on
the Outstanding Principal Value and any other amounts outstanding under the Note. For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Section
1.2 shall affect the Company’s obligation to pay any Interest that has accrued prior to the Effective Date, which Interest shall
remain due and payable in accordance with the terms of the Note. The parties hereby acknowledge and agree that, following release of the
Reserve Collateral, payment by the Company of an amount equal to Five Million Eight Hundred Eighty One Thousand Three Hundred Thirty Four
Dollars ($5,881,334), which payment shall be made within six (6) months after the Effective Date, shall constitute a payment in full of
the Note.
Section 2. Effectiveness. This
Amendment is effective as of the Effective Date. Notwithstanding Section 12.17 of the SPA and Section 16 of the Note, the Company and
the Holder hereby agree that this Amendment shall only amend the Note and not any Other Notes.
Section 3. Governing Law;
Jurisdiction; Waiver of Jury Trial. This Amendment shall be construed under the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to principles
of conflicts of law or choice of law that would permit or require the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. The Company and
the Holder each hereby agrees that all actions or proceedings arising directly or indirectly from or in connection with this Amendment
shall be litigated only in the state and federal courts sitting in the City of Wilmington, New Castle County, State of Delaware. The Company
and the Holder each consents to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the foregoing courts and consents that any process or notice of
motion or other application to either of said courts or a judge thereof may be served inside or outside the State of Delaware by generally
recognized overnight courier or certified or registered mail, return receipt requested, directed to such party at its or his address set
forth below (and service so made shall be deemed “personal service”) or by personal service or in such other manner as may
be permissible under the rules of said courts. THE COMPANY AND THE HOLDER EACH HEREBY WAIVES ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL IN CONNECTION WITH
ANY LITIGATION PURSUANT TO THIS AMENDMENT.
Section 4. Counterparts.
This Amendment may be executed in two or more identical counterparts, all of which shall be considered one and the same Amendment
and shall become effective when counterparts have been signed by each party and delivered to the other party; provided that an
electronic signature shall be considered due execution and shall be binding upon the signatory thereto with the same force and
effect as if the signature were an original, not an electronic signature.
Section 5. Severability.
If any provision of this Amendment shall be invalid or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity or unenforceability shall
not affect the validity or enforceability of the remainder of this Amendment in that jurisdiction or the validity or enforceability
of any provision of this Amendment in any other jurisdiction.
Section 6. Ratification.
Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, the Transaction Documents are, and shall continue to be, in full force and effect and
are hereby ratified and confirmed in all respects.
Section 7. Obligations
of the Company. Nothing in this Amendment is intended to, or shall be construed to, impose any additional obligations on the Company
other than the obligations expressly set forth in the Transaction Documents as in effect immediately prior to the Effective Date, as amended
by this Amendment.

Exhibit 99.1
Faraday Future Enters into Amendments with
Existing Investor to Reduce $5
Million Outstanding Convertible Notes Obligations
●
The remaining balance on such note shall be exchanged into a
non-convertible debt obligation, repayable in cash within six months, to further reduce shareholder dilution by approximately 25.16%,
as calculated at $5.00 per share conversion floor price.
●
The Company continues to take steps to support its robotics strategy,
and these amendments represent FF’s latest action to clear the overhang of potential dilution while optimizing the Company’s
capital structure.
Los Angeles, CA (Sept. 18, 2026) –
Faraday Future Intelligent Electric Inc. (NASDAQ: FFAI) (“Faraday Future”, “FF” or the “Company”),
a California-based global Embodied AI (EAI) ecosystem company, today announced that it has entered into amendments to the convertible
note issued by the Company to an existing investor (“Investor”) and the Deposit Account Control Agreement with the Investor
and East West Bank under the May 2026 Financing (the “Amendments”). Under the Amendments, FF will return the $5.0 million
of restricted cash currently held in the DACA account, resulting in a corresponding reduction in the Company’s outstanding notes
obligations.
Following the $5.0 million repayment, the outstanding
balance (including applicable premium and make-whole interest), will be reduced from approximately $10.88 million to approximately $5.88
million. The company will fully repay the remaining $5.88 million within six months in cash.
This action marks a further step forward in
the Company’s debt-reduction, dilution and capital-structure optimization. Additional details regarding the Amendments are set
forth in the Company’s Form 8-K filed with the SEC on Sept. 18, 2026.
“These Amendments will reduce the potential
equity dilution, help optimize the Company’s capital structure, and better protect shareholder value, further delivering on our
commitment to capital value restoration,” said Jerry Wang, Executive Chairman of FF. “The Company will continue to advance
these efforts in accordance with its stated commitments and maintain transparent disclosure to the market.”

FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release includes “forward looking statements”
within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. When used in this
press release, the words “plan to,” “can,” “will,” “should,” “future,” “potential,”
and variations of these words or similar expressions (or the negative versions of such words or expressions) are intended to identify
forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements, which include statements regarding FF’s vehicle business and FF’s entry
into the embodied AI robotics market, involve a number of known and unknown risks, uncertainties, assumptions and other important factors,
many of which are outside the Company’s control, which could cause actual results or outcomes to differ materially from those discussed
in the forward-looking statements.
Important factors, that may affect actual results or outcomes include,
among others: the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern and improve its liquidity and financial position; the Company’s ability
to pay its outstanding obligations, which it currently lacks; the availability of sufficient share capital to meet its current obligations
and execute on its strategy; the willingness of convertible debt investors to fund the Company; demand for the Company’s robotics products;
the ability of B2B preorder companies to locate customers to purchase our robotics products, on which their nonbinding preorders substantially
depend; competition in the robotics industry, which includes companies with far superior experience, funding and name recognition; the
ability of the Company to build an EAI education ecosystem that serves both the B2C consumer market and the B2B institutional education
market; the acceptance by teachers and students of the Company’s robotics products in the education market; the ability of the Company
to expand into additional markets for its robotics products; the Company’s reliance on a single OEM for most of its robotics products;
the Company’s reliance on Chinese OEMs for all of its robotics products; the possibility of the federal government banning imports of
Chinese robotics products; the Company’s ability to get the planned robotics products to comply with all applicable U.S. rules and regulations;
the ability of the robotics OEM to timely supply robotics to the Company; tariff uncertainty for imported products, particularly from
China; demand from automobile dealers for robotics products; the Company’s ability to homologate FX vehicles for sale; the Company’s ability
to secure the necessary funding to execute on the FX strategy, which is substantial; the Company’s ability to secure an occupancy certificate
covering all of its Hanford facility; the Company’s ability to remediate its material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting
and the risks related to the restatement of previously issued consolidated financial statements; the Company’s limited operating history
and the significant barriers to growth it faces; the Company’s history of substantial losses and expectation of continued losses; the
success of the Company’s payroll expense reduction plan; the Company’s ability to execute on its plans to develop and market its vehicles
and the timing of these development programs; the Company’s estimates of the size of the markets for its vehicles and cost to bring those
vehicles to market; the rate and degree of market acceptance of the Company’s vehicles; the Company’s ability to cover future warranty
claims; the success of other competing manufacturers; the performance and security of the Company’s vehicles; current and potential litigation
involving the Company; the Company’s ability to receive funds from, satisfy the conditions precedent of and close on the various financings
described elsewhere by the Company; the result of future financing efforts, the failure of any of which could result in the Company seeking
protection under the Bankruptcy Code; the Company’s indebtedness; the Company’s ability to use its “at-the-market” program;
insurance coverage; general economic and market conditions impacting demand for the Company’s products; potential negative impacts of
a reverse stock split; potential cost, headcount and salary reduction actions may not be sufficient or may not achieve their expected
results; circumstances outside of the Company’s control, such as natural disasters, climate change, health epidemics and pandemics, terrorist
attacks, and civil unrest; risks related to the Company’s operations in China; the success of the Company’s remedial measures taken in
response to the Special Committee findings; the Company’s dependence on its suppliers and contract manufacturer; the Company’s ability
to develop and protect its technologies; the Company’s ability to protect against cybersecurity risks; and the ability of the Company
to attract and retain employees, any adverse developments in existing legal proceedings or the initiation of new legal proceedings, and
volatility of the Company’s stock price. You should carefully consider the foregoing factors and the other risks and uncertainties described
in the “Risk Factors” section of the Company’s Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2026 filed with the SEC on August 13,
2026; the quarter ended March 31, 2026, filed with the SEC on May 14, 2026, and Form 10-K filed with the SEC on March 31, 2026, and other
documents filed by the Company from time to time with the SEC.
