Item 1.01

Entry Into A Material Agreement.
|
On July 28, 2021, certain
indirect subsidiaries of Global Clean Energy Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into (i) Amendment No. 5 to Credit Agreement
(the “Senior Amendment”) with Orion Energy Partners TP Agent, LLC, in its capacity as the administrative agent, and the lenders
(the "Senior Lenders") who agreed to provide financing under that senior secured term loan facility, and (ii) Consent No. 3
and Amendment No. 3 to Credit Agreement (the “Mezzanine Amendment”) with Orion Energy Partners TP Agent, LLC, in its capacity
as the administrative agent, and the lenders who agreed to provide funding under the mezzanine secured term loan facility (the “Mezzanine
Lenders”). Under the Senior Amendment and the Mezzanine Amendment, the Senior Lenders and the Mezzanine Lenders agreed to increase
the amount of funding available under the two credit agreements by $5,000,000 in the aggregate. In addition, under the two amendments,
the parties agreed to change the date by which the borrowers under the two credit agreements (the Company’s BKRF OCB, LLC and BKRF
HCB, LLC subsidiaries) had to establish an additional cash contingency reserve of at least $35 million from July 31, 2021 to September
15, 2021. As previously disclosed, BKRF OCB, LLC and BKRF HCB, LLC had agreed to establish an additional cash reserve of $35 million by
July 31, 2021, which reserve would be used to fund the costs of the construction, installation, equipping, completion, start-up, and operation
of the Company’s Bakersfield biorefinery, to the extent that such costs exceed the amounts available under the two credit agreements.
Finally, as previously disclosed, the borrowers agreed to pay to each of the Senior Lenders and the Mezzanine Lenders an amendment and
consent premium equal to 1.00% of the aggregate funding commitments of each such lender. Under the Senior Amendment and Mezzanine Amendment
the parties agreed that, in lieu of cash, the fee will be payable by the Company issuing warrants to purchase shares of the Company’s
common stock. The warrants will be issued on the earlier of September 15, 2021 or the closing of an equity raise in which the Company
sells at least $10 million of its common stock. The number of shares underlying the foregoing warrants will be determined by dividing
$3.8 million (the 1.00% premium) by the trailing ten (10) day volume weighted average price of the Company’s common stock on September
15, 2021, or if a $10 million equity financing occurs prior to September 15, 2021, the price at which the Company’s shares were
sold in that financing. The warrants will have an exercise price of $0.01 per share and will be exercisable any time from April 1, 2022
until two years after the date on which commercial operations of the Bakersfield biorefinery commence.
