The Binding Letter of Intent establishes a framework pursuant to which the Company intends to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of Vega (the “Acquisition”). The Binding Letter of Intent provides for an exclusivity period through September 30, 2026, during which the parties will conduct due diligence and negotiate definitive agreements. The transaction contemplates the exchange of 4,472,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, for all of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Vega, representing 11,180,000 shares of common stock, par value $0.0001 per share and reflecting an exchange ratio of 1:2.5.

 

The Binding Letter of Intent is binding with respect to its provisions, including exclusivity through September 30, 2026, conduct of business restrictions on Vega, confidentiality, standstill obligations, due diligence cooperation and certain other customary provisions. The final acquisition, including the total consideration payable to Vega, representations and warranties, indemnification provisions and other material terms remain subject to due diligence, negotiation and execution of definitive agreements, and other applicable corporate, legal, accounting and securities compliance considerations. There can be no assurance that the parties will enter into definitive agreements or that any proposed transaction will be completed.
