Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
First Amendment to Merger Agreement
On September 4, 2026, SUNation Energy, Inc., a
Delaware corporation (“SUNation”), SUNation Merger Sub, Inc., a Delaware corporation and a wholly owned subsidiary of SUNation
(“Merger Sub”), and Suniva, Inc., a Delaware corporation (“Suniva”), entered into a First Amendment to Agreement
and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Amendment”) which amends that certain Agreement and Plan of Merger dated June 5, 2026 among
SUNation, Suniva and Merger Sub (the “Merger Agreement”), pursuant to which, among other matters, and subject to the satisfaction
or waiver of the conditions set forth in the Merger Agreement, Merger Sub will merge with and into Suniva, with Suniva continuing as a
wholly owned subsidiary of SUNation and the surviving corporation of the merger (the “Merger”).
Under the terms of the Merger Amendment, the parties
amended the Merger Agreement as follows:
(a) permitting certain Suniva warrants or other derivative securities to be exchanged for identical SUNation
securities;
(b) clarifying the required vote for matters being submitted for approval to SUNation stockholders in connection
with the Merger;
(c) introducing new matters for approval at the SUNation stockholders meeting each of which would be conditions
to closing the Merger—an authorized share increase amendment to SUNation’s certificate of incorporation from 1 billion shares
to 1.5 billion shares, and the approval of the issuance of SUNation securities in exchange for certain securities issued to Suniva lenders;
(d) removing the approval of other charter amendments (that is, other than the authorized share increase described
above) from being a condition to closing the Merger;
(e) changing SUNation’s closing net cash requirement from negative $1.5 million to negative $2.5 million,
subject to adjustment for potential capital raises; and
(f) amending the SUNation directors and officers “tail” insurance policy provision to permit SUNation
to establish an escrow account to hold a $500,000 retention deposit.
In addition, pursuant to certain changes to definitions
applicable to SUNation insider indebtedness and its contemplated conversion to SUNation equity, SUNation will use reasonable best efforts
to repay or convert to equity up to $2,608,303 in related party loans, with a fixed conversion price of $2.26 per share, with any conversion
subject to the approval of SUNation stockholders. In the event that SUNation stockholders do not approve the conversion, Suniva agrees
to repay the outstanding loans and accrued interest within 10 calendar days of the closing of the Merger. Additionally, as set forth in
the Merger Amendment and Merger Agreement, Suniva agrees to repay other remaining outstanding related party loans and accrued interest
upon the closing of the Merger.
Consent Letter
Concurrently with the execution of the Merger
Amendment, SUNation and Suniva entered into a consent letter whereby, the parties consented, pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Merger Agreement,
to certain actions by Suniva related to financings it has completed, including securities issuances, subject to a limitation that further
issuances or committed issuances in excess of 5% of Suniva’s fully-diluted shares on a pro-forma basis after the transactions that
are consented to, are subject to further SUNation written consent.
The preceding summary of the Merger Amendment
does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Merger Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 2.1 to
this Current Report on Form 8-K and which is incorporated herein by reference. The Merger Amendment has been attached as an
exhibit to this Current Report on Form 8-K to provide investors and securityholders with information regarding its terms. It
is not intended to provide any other factual information about SUNation or Suniva or to modify or supplement any factual disclosures about
SUNation in its public reports filed with the SEC. The Merger Amendment may include representations, warranties and covenants of SUNation,
Suniva and Merger Sub made solely for the purpose of the Merger Agreement and solely for the benefit of the parties thereto in connection
with the negotiated terms of the Merger Agreement. Investors should not rely on the representations, warranties and covenants in the Merger
Amendment or any descriptions thereof as characterizations of the actual state of facts or conditions of SUNation, Suniva or any of their
respective affiliates. Moreover, certain of those representations and warranties may not be accurate or complete as of any specified date,
may be subject to a contractual standard of materiality different from those generally applicable to SEC filings or may have been used
for purposes of allocating risk among the parties to the Merger Agreement, rather than establishing matters of fact.

Forward-Looking Statements
This Current Report on Form 8-K and
the exhibits filed or furnished herewith contain forward-looking statements (including within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, and Section 27A of the Securities Act) concerning Suniva, SUNation, the proposed transactions and
other matters. These statements may discuss goals, intentions and expectations as to future plans, trends, events, results of operations
or financial condition, or otherwise, based on current expectations and beliefs of the management of SUNation and Suniva, as well as assumptions
made by, and information currently available to, management of SUNation and Suniva. Forward-looking statements generally include statements
that are predictive in nature and depend upon or refer to future events or conditions, and include words such as “may,” “will,”
“should,” “would,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “plan,” “likely,” “believe,”
“estimate,” “project,” “intend,” and other similar expressions or the negative or plural of these
words, or other similar expressions that are predictions or indicate future events or prospects, although not all forward-looking statements
contain these words. Statements that are not historical facts are forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements in this report include,
but are not limited to, expectations regarding the proposed Merger; the potential benefits and results of the Merger and transactions
contemplated thereby; the sufficiency of the combined company’s capital resources; the expected timing of the closing of the proposed
transactions, including any financing and/or capital transactions as may be necessary to fund operational expansion and consummation of
material operational matters; statements regarding the potential and timing of, and expectations regarding, Suniva’s energy development,
solar cell technology, manufacturing capabilities, production or capacity, ability to continue its resurgence and maintenance of its manufacturing
facilities, as well as the consummation of Suniva’s intended facility expansion and anticipated revenue opportunities; and any statements
by SUNation’s Chief Executive Officer. Forward-looking statements are based on current beliefs and assumptions that are subject
to risks and uncertainties and are not guarantees of future performance.
Actual results could differ materially from those
contained in any forward-looking statement as a result of various factors, including, without limitation: the risk that the proposed Merger
may not be completed on the anticipated timeline or at all; the failure to obtain required stockholder approvals, SEC effectiveness of
the Form S-4 registration statement, or Nasdaq listing approval; the parties’ ability to satisfy the conditions to closing and to
close expected financing; risks relating to constructing, equipping, permitting and ramping up the Laurens County, South Carolina facility
on time and on budget; the ability to convert offtake agreements into realized revenue; competition, tariffs, trade actions and changes
in tax incentives, including the Section 45X advanced manufacturing production credit; technology, supply-chain and execution risks; the
accuracy of third-party market data and forecasts; the operating history of Suniva; potential net losses incurred as a result of the current
expansion-stage nature of Suniva, as well as net losses carried forward from SUNation’s longstanding business operations; the ability
to raise additional capital; the ability of Suniva to execute on its business plans and for the combined companies to integrate SUNation’s
solar installation systems into Suniva’s solar cell manufacturing operations; the effects of the One Big Beautiful Act of 2025 on
the residential solar industry, which has had a material negative impact on residential solar installations since the January 2026 effectiveness
thereof; Suniva’s limited experience in operating a public company; the substantial competition Suniva faces in developing and selling
its solar cell development products; the ability to attract, hire, and retain skilled executive officers and employees; the ability of
SUNation or Suniva to protect their respective intellectual property and proprietary technologies; reliance on third parties, contract
manufacturers, and contract research organizations; uncertainties as to the timing of the consummation of the proposed transactions and
the ability of each of the parties to consummate the proposed transactions; risks related to SUNation’s continued listing on Nasdaq
until the closing of the proposed transactions; risks related to SUNation’s and Suniva’s ability to correctly estimate their
respective operating expenses and expenses associated with the proposed transactions, as well as uncertainties regarding the impact any
delay in the closing would have on the anticipated cash resources of the combined company upon closing and other events and unanticipated
spending and costs that could reduce the combined company’s cash resources; the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance
or condition that could give rise to the termination of the Merger Agreement; competitive responses to the proposed transactions; unexpected
costs, charges or expenses resulting from the proposed transactions; the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against
SUNation, Suniva or any of their respective directors or officers related to the Merger or the proposed transactions contemplated thereby;
potential adverse reactions or changes to business relationships resulting from the announcement or completion of the proposed transactions;
the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transactions on SUNation’s or Suniva’s business relationships, operating
results and business generally; compliance with and qualification for initial listing on Nasdaq related to the expected trading of the
combined company’s stock on Nasdaq and the combined company’s ability to remain listed following the proposed transactions;
the risk that, as a result of adjustments to the Exchange Ratio as set forth in the Merger Agreement, as amended, SUNation’s stockholders
and Suniva’s stockholders could own more or less of the combined company than is currently anticipated; risks related to the market
price of SUNation common stock relative to the Exchange Ratio; legislative, regulatory, political and economic developments and general
market conditions, including those surrounding the viability of residential solar businesses following the loss of federal tax credits
beginning in January 2026; and the other risks described in SUNation’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K, Quarterly Reports
on Form 10-Q and Current Reports on Form 8-K filed with the SEC, the registration statement on Form S-4 to be filed with the SEC by SUNation,
as well as risk factors associated with companies, such as Suniva, that operate in the energy and manufacturing industry.

results of any such forward-looking statements will be achieved. Forward-looking statements in this Current Report on Form 8-K speak only
as of the day they are made and are qualified in their entirety by reference to the cautionary statements herein. Except as required by

Section 1. Defined
Terms. Capitalized terms used but not defined in this Amendment shall have the meanings assigned to such terms in the Merger
Agreement.

to the Merger Agreement.
(a) Amendment
to Parent Charter Amendment Filing. The proviso at the end of Section 1.05(c) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety
to read as follows:
“provided, however, that,
if the Parent Charter Amendment is approved at the Parent Stockholders Meeting, at or immediately prior to the Effective Time, Parent
shall file the Parent Charter Amendment.”
1
(b) Amendment
to Treatment of Warrants. Section 2.02(a) of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“(a) Company
Warrants. At the Effective Time, each outstanding Warrant that has not been exercised prior to the Effective Time will, unless
such Warrant is designated on the Allocation Statement as a “Rollover Warrant,” be cancelled automatically as of
the Effective Time, and thereafter each holder of such Warrant (each, a “Warrantholder”) will be entitled to
receive, upon delivery of such duly executed and completed agreement or instrument with respect to the cancellation of the Warrant
as the Company in its discretion may require (each, a “Warrant Cancellation Agreement”) an amount equal to the
Closing Per Warrant Consideration for each Warrant that is exercisable in accordance with the Allocation Statement and as provided
in Section 2.03. The amounts described in the preceding sentence shall be deemed to have been paid in full satisfaction of
all rights pertaining to such Warrants. Each outstanding Warrant that is designated on the Allocation Statement as a “Rollover
Warrant” shall, at the Effective Time, be converted into a warrant (or other derivative security, as applicable) of Parent on
substantially the same terms and conditions as were applicable to such Warrant immediately prior to the Effective Time, except that
such Rollover Warrant shall relate to shares of Parent Common Stock determined based on the Exchange Ratio, as set forth on the

“Parent Equity Value”
means the sum of (a) $14,719,624 plus (b) the Debt Conversion Amount plus (c) the net proceeds of the Parent financing(s)
after the date of the Merger Agreement and at or prior to the Closing Date.”
(d) Amendment
to Definition of “Requisite Parent Vote.” The definition of “Requisite Parent Vote” in Section 4.03(a)
of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“the need to obtain the minimum
number of affirmative votes required to approve each of the Parent Stockholder Matters under applicable Law and the applicable listing
standards of the Nasdaq Stock Market (which, for the avoidance of doubt, may be different levels depending on the applicable Parent Stockholder
Matter) (the “Requisite Parent Vote”)”
2
(e) Amendment
to Directors’ and Officers’ Indemnification and Insurance. Section 5.10(b) is hereby amended and restated in its entirety
to read as follows:
“(b) Insurance.
Parent shall, at the expense of the Surviving Corporation, obtain as of the Effective Time directors and officers “tail”
insurance policies (“D&O Tail Policy”) with a claims period of six years from the Effective Time with at
least the same coverage and amounts and containing terms and conditions that are not less advantageous to the Indemnified Parties,
with respect to claims arising out of or relating to events which occurred before or at the Effective Time (including in connection
with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement); provided, however, that in no event will the Surviving Corporation be
required to expend an aggregate premium for such coverage over the term of the policy in excess of $650,000 (the “Maximum
Premium”). If such insurance coverage cannot be obtained at an annual premium equal to or less than the Maximum Premium,
Parent will obtain the greatest coverage available for a cost not exceeding an annual premium equal to the Maximum Premium. In
regard to any retention amount payable on a covered claim under the D&O Tail Policy, the Surviving Corporation shall maintain
the escrow account of Parent, whether now in existence or which shall be opened for this purpose by Parent prior to the Closing of
the Merger (the “Escrow Account”) containing the D&O Tail Policy “retention” amount of not less
than $500,000 (“Escrowed Funds”), which Escrow Account shall be transferred or assigned by Parent at or
immediately following the Closing of the Merger to the Surviving Corporation. The Surviving Corporation shall maintain and not
terminate or dissolve the Escrow Account or reduce the Escrowed Funds in the Escrow Account at any time below the retention amount
necessary thereunder during the duration of the required D&O Tail Policy for the purposes of ensuring the D&O Tail Policy
retention amount is available in full in the event of any applicable claim thereunder. In the event that at the expiration of such
D&O Tail Policy any such Escrowed Funds are not utilized, then the Escrow Account may be terminated, and any remaining Escrowed
Funds shall thereafter be retained or utilized in the discretion of the Surviving Corporation.”
(f) Amendment
to Parent Indebtedness. Section 5.21 of the Merger Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:
“Section
5.21 Parent Indebtedness. Prior to the Effective Time, Parent shall use reasonable best efforts to repay or convert into Parent
Common Stock (in its sole discretion and on terms reasonably acceptable to Parent, and as permissible in accordance with applicable Laws)
an amount up to $2,608,303. In no event shall Parent incur any additional indebtedness with Affiliates or other related parties following
the date hereof, without the prior written consent of the Company (which shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).
In connection with the conversion of Converted Debt into Parent Common Stock, which conversion terms shall be put to a vote of the Parent
stockholders (the “Parent Indebtedness Vote”) (among other proposals related to the Merger), should the necessary vote
to approve the conversion of the Converted Debt not be obtained at the Parent Stockholders Meeting, then the Converted Debt holders of
Parent shall be paid by the Company in cash and/or stock, in the Converted Debt holders’ discretion, within ten (10) calendar days
following the Closing of the Merger in an amount equal to the aggregate balance of such remaining Converted Debt. To the extent any indebtedness
(principal plus accrued and unpaid interest as of the Closing Date) (i) set forth on Schedule 5.21 of the Parent Disclosure Letter, excluding
any Converted Debt, and (ii) any unpaid and outstanding indebtedness on Parent’s secured revolving line of credit agreement with
MBB Energy, LLC, the Company shall pay such indebtedness in cash at Closing.
