Item 1.01
Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.
On June 11, 2026, Global Technology, Inc. (“Global
Technology”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Applied Optoelectronics, Inc., entered into a one-year credit line agreement with Shanghai
Pudong Development Bank Co., Ltd. in Ningbo City, China (the “Bank”), pursuant to which the Bank agreed to provide Global
Technology with a credit line in an aggregate amount of up to RMB 500,000,000 (the “Credit Line”).
The Credit Line supersedes the prior credit facility
agreement between Global Technology and the Bank dated July 29, 2025, which provided for a maximum credit facility of RMB 250,000,000
(the "Original Credit Facility"). The Credit Line increases Original Credit Facility from RMB 250,000,000 to RMB 500,000,000
to support Global Technology’s working capital needs and general business operations. Pursuant to the Credit Line, any
amounts previously extended by the Bank under the Original Credit Facility will remain outstanding
and reduce the amount available for borrowing under the Credit Line.
The Credit Line may be utilized for the following
financing arrangements: (i) working capital loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to RMB 150,000,000, which is shared with the
fixed asset loan sublimit, (ii) fixed asset loans in an aggregate principal amount of up to RMB 300,000,000, and (iii) bank acceptance
bills in an aggregate principal amount of up to RMB 200,000,000. The fixed asset loan portion of the Credit Line is non-revolving, while
the working capital loan and bank acceptance bill portions are available on a revolving basis.
Global Technology may draw upon the Credit Line
on an as-needed basis at any time during the period from May 21, 2026 through May 21, 2027; provided, however, the Bank may revoke the
Credit Line at any time at its sole discretion. The Bank may do so without prior notice in the event of changes in applicable laws, regulations,
or policies, restrictions imposed by government monetary or financial regulatory policies, changes in market conditions, fund positions,
financial costs, the Bank's own business needs, or a deterioration in Global Technology’s credit condition. The interest rate applicable
to each draw will be determined by mutual agreement between the Bank and Global Technology and specified in the loan documents executed
at the time of such draw.
Global Technology’s obligations under the
Credit Line will be secured by the real property previously mortgaged to the Bank in connection with the Original Credit Facility. The
Credit Line contains rights and obligations, representations and warranties, and events of default applicable to Global Technology that
are customary for agreements of this type.
The foregoing description of the Credit Line does
not purport to be a complete statement of the parties’ rights and obligations under the agreements and is qualified in its entirety
by reference to the full text of the Financing Credit Line Agreement, an English translation of which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this

Based
on the principles of equality, mutual benefit, and voluntariness, the parties hereto have entered into the following agreement (“this
Agreement”) through friendly consultation in accordance with the relevant laws and regulations.
Part
1 General Terms and Conditions
1.
Agreement
Any documents signed by and between the Customer and the Financing Bank within the use period
of the credit line, including the Credit Line Change Agreement (in the form of Annex 1) and
accompanying financing documents, shall be an integral part of this Agreement and shall be
read in conjunction with this Agreement.
In
case of any inconsistency between this Agreement (including the supplementary agreement hereto)
and any accompanying financing documents, the latter shall prevail.
2. Credit
Line For the purposes of this Agreement, “use period of the credit line”
refers to the valid period for use of the credit line that the Financing Bank issues to the
Customer in accordance with Part 2 Commercial Terms (Financing Credit Line Form) of this
Agreement or any credit line change agreement entered into by the parties, which is a period
for use of the credit line applied for by the Customer rather than a period for performance
of debts. The period for performance of debts of each business hereunder shall be determined
by the parties in the applicable accompanying financing document or the commitment document
issued. The use period of the credit line specified in the Financing Credit Line Form (Part
2 of this Agreement) or the use period of the credit line specified in any valid credit line
change agreement entered into by the Customer and the Financing Bank, whichever is signed
later, shall prevail. The Customer shall apply to the Financing Bank for use of the financing
credit line within the use period. If the Customer submits an application beyond the agreed
use period, the Financing Bank may reject it regardless of whether the financing credit line
has been used up.

Financing Credit Line Agreement
3.
Credit
Line Change If the terms and conditions herein are inconsistent with the Financing Credit
Line Form, the Financing Credit Line Form (including the changes to the Form made by the
Customer and the Financing Bank from time to time based on the Credit Line Change Agreement)
shall prevail. If any accompanying financing documents signed by and between the Customer
and the Financing Bank within the use period of the credit line are inconsistent with the
provisions of this Agreement, the business involved in the accompanying financing documents
shall be subject to the provisions of such documents.
Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Financing Bank is still entitled to notify the Customer that the financing
under any accompanying financing document has become due in advance when it deems necessary,
so as to guarantee its creditor’s rights. In such case, the Customer shall immediately
repay the financing amount and increase the margin ratio for the letter of credit (LC), letter
of guarantee (LG)/standby LC, or bank acceptance bill issued by the Financing Bank in accordance
with the Customer’s application or other business determined by the Financing Bank
to 100%.
4. Financing
In accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and any accompanying financing documents,
the Customer may apply to the Financing Bank for credit financing (collectively referred to as “financing” in
this Agreement) as agreed within the financing credit line and the use period of the credit line. The specific applicable
financing products shall be subject to the provisions of the Financing Credit Line Form. The Financing Bank’s commitments
on the financing credit line hereunder are commitments that can be revoked unconditionally at any time, i.e., the loan commitments
that the Financing Bank has the right to unilaterally revoke at any time without prior notice, based on changes in laws, regulations,
or policies, or restrictions imposed by government monetary or financial regulatory policies, changes in market conditions,
fund positions, financial costs, the Financing Bank’s business needs, or deterioration of the Customer’s credit
status. The Financing Bank may cancel, freeze, or adjust the financing credit line at any time.
5. Accompanying

refer to documents that have been signed by the Customer, which include but are not limited

and has no serious deterioration of operations in the past three years.
(2) The

(4) The

statements, and promised to provide and accept the supervision and inspection for and of

(7) The
Customer’s specific business application is filed within the use period of the credit

LC, LG/standby LC, or bank acceptance bill, and other business performance dates fall on
the Financing Bank’s business days.
(8) Other
prerequisites proposed by the Financing Bank (if any, see “Other Agreed Matters”
in Part 2 for details).
8. Occupied
Financing Credit Line It refers to the sum of the financing principal that has been issued by the
Financing Bank to the Customer in accordance with this Agreement and the accompanying financing documents
but has not been repaid by the Customer, the financing principal that has been committed to the Customer
(including the commitment under a specific financing agreement already signed by the Customer and the
Financing Bank) but has not been drawn by the Customer, and the amount involved in guarantee commitments
made at the Customer’s request (including but not limited to the L/C and L/G/standby L/C), less
the margins, deposit certificates, government bonds, bank acceptance bills, and other financing amounts
that the Customer or the Customer’s guarantor has provided for guarantee purposes in compliance
with the Financing Bank’s management regulations, except as otherwise agreed upon by the parties.
9. Revolving
As for the revolving financing credit line, after the Customer has fulfilled its obligations
under this Agreement and the accompanying financing documents (including repaying the relevant
financing funds or the funds paid by the Financing Bank on behalf of the Customer, relieving
the Financing Bank from its responsibility under the guarantee commitments due to the fulfillment
of obligations under the basic contract, increasing the margin to 100%, and relieving the
Financing Bank from its payment responsibility), the credit line occupied by the amount involved
in the fulfilled obligations shall be restored, and the Customer may continue to apply to
the Financing Bank for use of the financing credit line within its use period in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement. Once the non-revolving financing credit line is occupied,
it cannot be restored for use after the Customer performs the repayment and other obligations,
unless the Financing Bank agrees to it. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, during
the use period of the credit line, the Financing Bank is entitled to review the conditions
of the Customer and the collateral on a yearly basis. If the conditions of the Customer and
the collateral pass the Financing Bank’s review, the Customer may continue to use the
financing credit line in the next year. If the conditions of the Customer and the collateral
fail the Financing Bank’s review, the Financing Bank is entitled to cancel the financing
credit line at the beginning of the next year. Except for the accompanying financing documents
that are still in force, the unused and to-be-prepaid financing credit line shall no longer
be used.
10. Guarantee If the financing
credit line hereunder is guaranteed, the additional prerequisite for the Customer’s application for financing in accordance
with the provisions of this Agreement is that the guarantee document has been signed and become effective and remains effective;
or if the guarantee contract is a mortgage or pledge contract, the security interests under the contract have been established
and remain effective. If the Financing Credit Line Form contains any requirements for the margin ratio of the opened LC,
LG/standby LC, or bank acceptance bill, the precondition for the Customer to apply for the opening of the LC, LG/standby
LC, or bank acceptance bill is that the relevant proportion of the deposit has been paid in full. If the Customer applies
for a change of the financing credit line and as a result the financing credit line is increased, the Customer shall, at
the request of the Financing Bank, provide additional collateral or urge the guarantor to confirm the change and provide
additional collateral. If the Customer can continue to use the financial credit line in the next year upon the Financing
Bank’s review, it shall ensure that the relevant guarantee will continue to be effective according to the requirements
of the Financing Bank.
4
Financing Credit Line Agreement
11. Tax
Unless the law requires the Customer to pay the relevant tax when repaying the financing fund, the
Customer’s repayment hereunder shall be made in full without any deduction. If the Customer must
pay the relevant tax in accordance with the law, it shall issue a tax payment certificate to the Financing
Bank within fifteen (15) days after the relevant deduction is made, and shall pay additional amount
to the Financing Bank to make the total amount equivalent to that the Financing Bank should have received
without any deduction.
12. Representations and Warranties

deemed to be made by the Customer repeatedly and shall remain effective each time the Financing Bank provides a financing
fund to the Customer in accordance with this Agreement and the accompanying financing documents.
