Item 1.01Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

Hawks Sponsor LLC (the “Sponsor”) agreed to make monthly deposits directly to the trust account (the “Trust Account”) of Hawks Acquisition Corp (the “Company”) in the amount of $0.03 for each outstanding share of Class A Common Stock (which shall not include shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class A Common Stock”) that have been converted from shares of the Company’s Class B common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Class B Common Stock” and, together with the Class A Common Stock, the “Common Stock”)), with each such monthly advance not exceeding $125,000 in the aggregate (each deposit, a “Contribution”) on the terms described below. Such Contributions will be made pursuant to an unsecured promissory note (the “Promissory Note”) issued by the Company to the Sponsor.

The Contributions will be paid monthly on or prior to the thirteenth day of each month (or if such thirteenth day is not a business day, on the business day immediately preceding such thirteenth day) beginning on April 13, 2023 until the earliest to occur of (i) the consummation of an initial business combination, (ii) November 13, 2023 and (iii) if a business combination is not consummated, the date of liquidation of the Trust Account, as determined in the sole discretion of the Company’s board of directors (the “Board”). The Contribution with respect to April 13, 2023 has been completed. The Promissory Note will mature on the earlier of (1) the date the Company consummates a business combination and (2) the date that the winding up of the Company is effective (such date, the “Maturity Date”). The Promissory Note will accrue interest at the short-term applicable federal rate and will be repayable by the Company to the Sponsor upon the Maturity Date. The Maturity Date may be accelerated upon the occurrence of an “Event of Default” (as defined in the Promissory Note). Any outstanding principal under the Promissory Note may be prepaid at any time by the Company, at its election and without penalty.

The foregoing description of the Promissory Note does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by the terms and conditions of the Promissory Note, a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit 10.1 and incorporated herein by reference.

The foregoing descriptions of the First Charter Amendment and the Second Charter Amendment do not purport to be complete and are qualified in their entirety by reference to Exhibit 3.1 and Exhibit 3.2, respectively, which are incorporated herein by reference.
