Item 1.01

Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement

On June 20, 2025, BRC Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a settlement and release agreement (the “Settlement Agreement”) with Alta Partners, LLC (“Alta”) pursuant to which, in full settlement of the claims described therein (as described below), (i) Alta shall pay the Company $1,000,000 and (ii) the Company shall issue 2,300,100 shares of the Company’s Class A common stock, par value $0.0001 per share (the “Settlement Shares”) to Alta.

As previously disclosed, Alta filed a lawsuit in the federal district court in the Southern District of New York against the Company: Alta Partners, LLC v. BRC Inc., Case 24-CV-03741 (AT) (RWL) (Southern District of New York). The complaint alleged breach of contract and that Alta suffered damages arising from the Company’s refusal to permit Alta to exercise warrants between March 11 and May 4, 2022. The lawsuit sought unspecified general and compensatory damages, attorneys’ fees, and other costs and disbursements.

The Settlement Shares are being issued by the Company pursuant to a registration statement on Form S-3 (333-270727), which was declared effective by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) on March 30, 2023 (the “Registration Statement”), including the related base prospectus contained therein and a prospectus supplement that the Company filed on the date hereof.

This Current Report on Form 8-K does not constitute an offer to sell any securities or a solicitation of an offer to buy any securities, nor shall there be any sale of any securities in any state or jurisdiction in which such an offer, solicitation or sale would be unlawful prior to registration or qualification under the securities laws of any such state or jurisdiction.

The legal opinion and consent of Paul Hastings LLP addressing the validity of the Settlement Shares are filed as Exhibit 5.1 and Exhibit 23.1, respectively, to this Current Report on Form 8-K and are incorporated into the Registration Statement.

The foregoing description of the Settlement Agreement does not purport to be complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the Settlement Agreement, a copy of which is filed herewith as Exhibit 10.1, and incorporated herein by reference.
