Item 1.01. Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Securities Purchase Agreement

As previously reported, in the Company's Current Report on Form 8-K filed on February 6, 2026 (the "February 8-K"), Aspire Biopharma Holdings, Inc. (the "Company") entered into a securities purchase agreement (the "Securities Purchase Agreement") with certain accredited investors (the "Investors"), providing for a private placement (the "Offering"), of up to 25,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Preferred Stock"), convertible into shares of the Company's common stock (the "Common Stock"). The terms of the Securities Purchase Agreement, the Preferred Stock, and the related Certificate of Designations, Preferences and Rights of the Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, as amended (the "Certificate of Designation") are described in the February 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference. This Current Report on Form 8-K reports the closing of the second tranche of the Offering.

The Securities Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement were previously filed as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to the February 8-K and are incorporated herein by reference. The summary of the terms of the Certificate of Designation and the Securities Purchase Agreement and Registration Rights Agreement in the February 8-K are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the full text of such documents, which are incorporated herein by reference from the February 8-K.

No statement in this report or the attached exhibits is an offer to sell or a solicitation of an offer to purchase the Company's securities, and no offer, solicitation or sale will be made in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.

The Offering

As previously disclosed, on February 6, 2026, the Company closed the first tranche of the Offering for an aggregate of 13,750 Shares, resulting in gross proceeds of $11,000,000 including the conversion of $943,801 in existing debt into Shares on the same terms. On April 15, 2026, the Company and the investors closed on the second tranche of the Offering for an aggregate of 12,500 Shares, resulting in gross proceeds of approximately $10,000,000. In both tranches, gross proceeds are before deducting fees to be paid to the placement agents and financial advisors of the Company and other estimated offering expenses payable by the Company. Proceeds from the $21,000,000 Offering net of transaction fees and expenses will be available to fund the cash component of the proposed Dura Driver Control Systems acquisition and for general corporate purposes.

RBW Capital Partners acting through Dawson James Securities Inc., served as placement agent on the transaction.

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

On April 13, 2026, the Company filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to the Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock (the "Certificate of Amendment").

The Certificate of Amendment amends the Company's previously filed Certificate of Designation of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, which was originally filed on February 2, 2026.

Pursuant to the Certificate of Amendment, the Company amended certain provisions of the Certificate of Designation, including clarifying and restating provisions relating to the designation and number of shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock. As amended, the Company has designated 30,000 shares of Series A Convertible Preferred Stock, each with a par value of $0.0001 and a stated value of $1,000 per share.

Except as expressly modified by the Certificate of Amendment, the Certificate of Designation remains in full force and effect.

The foregoing description of the Certificate of Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference to the full text of the Certificate of Amendment, which is filed as Exhibit 3.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and is incorporated herein by reference.
