Entry into Material Definitive Agreements

Subscription Agreements

On June 20, 2025, DDC Enterprise Limited (the “Company”) entered into three separate subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with three investors (the “Investors”). Pursuant to the Subscription Agreements, the Investors agreed to subscribe for and purchase, and the Company agreed to sell to the three Investors, (i) an aggregate of 266,444 Class A ordinary shares, par value $0.40 per share (the “Class A Ordinary A Shares”), at a purchase price of $9.00; (ii) an aggregate of 308,833 Class A Ordinary Shares at a purchase price of $12.00; and (iii) an aggregate of 259,244 Class A Ordinary Shares at a purchase price of $18.50, respectively (collectively, the “Shares”), to be paid in bitcoin cryptocurrency, for aggregate consideration of 100 bitcoins (the “Offering”). The closing of the Offering requires satisfaction of all NYSE American requirements related to the Offering.

The Investors have agreed to be bound by lock-up provisions with respect to their subscribed shares. The lock-up periods for Investors are subject to certain conditions, depending on the Company’s attainment of a designated market capitalization.

Each investor has represented and warranted to the Company, in separate letters, that, among other things, they are not a “U.S. Person” as defined under Rule 902 of the Securities Act of 1933 and were outside the U.S. during the offer and sale of the Shares; they are acquiring the Shares for investment, not for resale to U.S. persons, and will comply with Regulation S, registration, or exemptions for any subsequent sales; and they have no plan to sell in the U.S and are not distributors.

The issuance of securities pursuant to the Subscription Agreements will be made in reliance on the exemptions from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Regulation D promulgated thereunder.

The foregoing description of the Subscription Agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Subscription Agreements, a form of which is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

Additional Agreements

In connection and simultaneously with the execution of the Subscription Agreements, the Company entered into separate option agreements (“Option Agreements”) and collateral agreements (“Collateral Agreements”) with each of the three Investors.

Pursuant to the Option Agreements, the Company agreed to grant to the Investors the right to require the Company to direct the purchase or re-purchase of the Shares or a part of the Shares at the applicable exercise price set forth in the Option Agreements (referred to herein as the “Put Option”). The Investors may exercise the Put Option by submitting a put option exercise notice to the Company at any time during a thirty-six months period (“Put Option Exercise Period”), when the Company’s market capitalization falls below $500 million. The Put Option may be exercised not more than twice during the Put Option Exercise Period and not more than once in any period of twelve consecutive months. The Investors may also exercise the Put Option requiring the Company to purchase all of the Shares after the occurrence of an event of default or bankruptcy events, as set forth in the Option Agreements.

Pursuant to the Collateral Agreements, the Company agreed to charge all of its rights, title and interest from time to time in a Bitcoin wallet (the “Charged Wallet”) and all Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies and digital currency standing to the credit of the Charged Wallet (together with the Charged Wallet, the “Charged Property”), by way of a first fixed charge in favor of the Investors. Upon the occurrence of an event of default set forth in the Option Agreements, the Investors shall have absolute and full control over the Charged Property, and to require release and delivery of password and private key of the Charged Wallet.

The foregoing description of the Option Agreements and the Collateral Agreements does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and qualified in its entirety by, the full text of the Option Agreements and the Collateral Agreements, forms of which are filed hereto as Exhibit 10.2 and 10.3, respectively, and incorporated herein by reference.
