On September 3, 2026, BUUU Group Limited (the “Company”) entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a 60% equity interest in Brightray Science Inc. (“Brightray”), a provider of fully integrated, prefabricated modular data center solutions (the “Acquisition”). Upon completion of the Acquisition, Brightray will become a consolidated subsidiary of the Company. The Acquisition remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
In connection with the Acquisition and the Company’s planned expansion of Brightray’s business, on September 3, 2026, the Company also entered into private placement subscription agreements (the “Subscription Agreements”) with certain investors (the “Purchasers”), pursuant to which the Company agreed to issue and sell to the Purchasers, in a private placement (the “Private Placement”), units (the “Purchaser Units”), with each Purchaser Unit consisting of (i) one Class A ordinary share of the Company, no par value per share (the “Class A Shares”), and (ii) one-half of a warrant to purchase one Class A Share (the “Purchaser Warrants”), at a purchase price of $10.00 per Purchaser Unit.
Each Purchaser Warrant is exercisable from the date of issuance through September 2, 2027 at an exercise price of $10.00 per Class A Share, subject to customary adjustments. The Purchaser Warrants may only be exercised for cash and do not provide for cashless exercise.
The Private Placement is expected to close no later than ten business days following the date of the Subscription Agreements, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions. Together with the potential cash exercise of the Purchaser Warrants at $10.00 per Class A Share, the Private Placement is expected to generate aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of more than $60 million. The Company intends to use the proceeds to support capacity expansion and working capital requirements in connection with the expansion of Brightray’s business following the Acquisition.
The Class A Shares, the Purchaser Warrants and the Class A Shares issuable upon exercise of the Purchaser Warrants have not been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and are being offered and sold in offshore transactions to non-U.S. persons in reliance on Regulation S under the Securities Act. The securities may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from the registration requirements of the Securities Act.
The foregoing summaries of the Subscription Agreements and the Purchaser Warrants do not purport to be complete and are subject to, and qualified in their entirety by, the forms of Subscription Agreement and Purchaser Warrant furnished as Exhibits 10.1 and 10.2, respectively, to this Report on Form 6-K and incorporated herein by reference.
On September 3, 2026, the Company issued a press release announcing the Acquisition and the Private Placement. A copy of the press release is furnished as Exhibit 99.1 to this Report on Form 6-K and is incorporated herein by reference.

If this Purchaser’s Warrant shall have been exercised in part, the Company shall, at the written request of the Holder and upon surrender of this Purchaser’s Warrant, at the time of delivery of the Shares, deliver to the Holder a new warrant evidencing the rights of the Holder to purchase the unpurchased Shares called for by this Purchaser’s Warrant, which new warrant shall in all other respects be identical with this Purchaser’s Warrant.
(iii) Rescission Rights. If the Company fails to cause its transfer agent to transmit to the Holder the Shares pursuant to Section 2.2(i) by the Share Delivery Date, unless such failure was not caused by the fault or negligence of the Company, then the Holder will have the right to rescind such exercise upon written notice to the Company within one (1) trading day after the Share Delivery Date.
(iv) No Fractional Shares or Scrip. No fractional shares or scrip representing fractional shares shall be issued upon the exercise of this Purchaser’s Warrant. As to any fraction of a share which the Holder would otherwise be entitled to purchase upon such exercise, the Company shall, at its election, either pay a cash adjustment in respect of such final fraction in an amount equal to such fraction multiplied by the Exercise Price or round up to the next whole share.
(vi) Charges, Taxes and Expenses. Issuance of Shares shall be made without charge to the Holder for any issue or transfer tax or other incidental expense in respect of the issuance of such Shares, all of which taxes and expenses shall be paid by the Company, and such Shares shall be issued in the name of the Holder or in such name or names as may be directed by the Holder; provided, however, that, in the event Shares are to be issued in a name other than the name of the Holder, this Purchaser’s Warrant when surrendered for exercise shall be accompanied by the Assignment Form attached hereto as Exhibit B duly executed by the Holder and the Company may require, as a condition thereto, the payment of a sum sufficient to reimburse it for any transfer tax incidental thereto. The Company shall pay all transfer agent fees required for processing of any exercise form to satisfy the required Share Delivery Date.
2.3 Legend. Each certificate for the securities purchased under this Purchaser’s Warrant shall bear the following legends unless such securities have been registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or are exempt from registration under the Act:

6. Adjustments.
6.1 Adjustments to Exercise Price and Number of Class A Shares. The Exercise Price and the number of Class A Shares underlying this Purchaser’s Warrant shall be subject to adjustment from time to time as hereinafter set forth:
6.1.1 Share Dividends; Split Ups. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 below, the number of outstanding Class A Shares is increased by a share dividend payable in Class A Shares or by a split up of Class A Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date thereof, the number of Class A Shares purchasable hereunder shall be increased in proportion to such increase in outstanding Class A Shares, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately decreased.
6.1.2 Aggregation of Class A Shares. If, after the date hereof, and subject to the provisions of Section 6.3 below, the number of outstanding Class A Shares is decreased by a reverse split, consolidation, combination or reclassification of Class A Shares or other similar event, then, on the effective date thereof, the number of Class A Shares purchasable hereunder shall be decreased in proportion to such decrease in outstanding shares, and the Exercise Price shall be proportionately increased.
6.1.3 Replacement of Class A Shares upon Reorganization, etc. In case of any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Class A Shares other than a change covered by Section 6.1.1, Section 6.1.2 or Section 6.1.4 hereof or that solely affects the par value of such Class A Shares, or in the case of any share reconstruction or amalgamation or consolidation of the Company with or into another corporation (other than a consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation in which the Company is the continuing corporation and that does not result in any reclassification or reorganization of the outstanding Class A Shares), or in the case of any sale or conveyance to another corporation or entity of the property of the Company as an entirety or substantially as an entirety in connection with which the Company is dissolved, the Holder of this Purchaser’s Warrant shall have the right thereafter (until the expiration of the right of exercise of this Purchaser’s Warrant) to receive upon the exercise hereof, for the same aggregate Exercise Price payable hereunder immediately prior to such event, the kind and amount of Class A Shares or other securities or property (including cash) receivable upon such reclassification, reorganization, share reconstruction or amalgamation, or consolidation, or upon a dissolution following any such sale or transfer, by a Holder of the number of Class A Shares of the Company obtainable upon exercise of this Purchaser’s Warrant immediately prior to such event; and if any reclassification also results in a change in Class A Shares covered by Section 6.1.1, Section 6.1.2 or Section 6.1.4, then such adjustment shall be made pursuant to Section 6.1.1, Section 6.1.2, Section 6.1.4 and this Section 6.1.3. The provisions of this Section 6.1.3 shall similarly apply to successive reclassifications, reorganizations, share reconstructions or amalgamations, or consolidations, sales or other transfers.
3
6.1.4 Changes in Form of Purchaser’s Warrant. This form of Purchaser’s Warrant need not be changed because of any change pursuant to this Section 6.1, and any warrants issued after such change, in exchange or replacement of this Purchaser’s Warrant may state the same Exercise Price and the same number of Class A Shares as are stated in the Purchaser’s Warrant initially issued pursuant to this Purchaser’s Warrant. The acceptance by any Holder of the issuance of a new warrant reflecting a required or permissive change shall not be deemed to waive any rights to an adjustment occurring after the date hereof or the computation thereof.
6.2 Substitute Purchaser’s Warrant. Except as otherwise provided in Section 6.1.4, in case of any consolidation of the Company with, or share reconstruction or amalgamation of the Company with or into, another corporation (other than a consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation which does not result in any reclassification or change of the outstanding Class A Shares), the corporation formed by such consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation shall execute and deliver to the Holder a supplemental warrant providing that the holder of this Purchaser’s Warrant then outstanding or to be outstanding shall have the right thereafter (until the stated expiration of this Purchaser’s Warrant) to receive, upon exercise of such supplemental warrant, the kind and amount of Class A Shares and other securities and property receivable upon such consolidation or share reconstruction or amalgamation, by a holder of the number of Class A Shares of the Company for which this Purchaser’s Warrant might have been exercised immediately prior to such consolidation, share reconstruction or amalgamation, sale or transfer. Such supplemental warrant shall provide for adjustments which shall be substantially the same to the adjustments provided for in this Section 6. The above provisions of this Section 6 shall similarly apply to successive consolidations or share reconstructions or amalgamations.
6.3 Elimination of Fractional Interests. The Company shall not be required to issue fractional Shares, or certificates representing fractions of Class A Shares upon the exercise of this Purchaser’s Warrant, nor shall it be required to issue scrip or pay cash in lieu of any fractional interests, it being the intent of the parties that all fractional interests shall be eliminated by rounding any fraction up or down, as the case may be, to the nearest whole number of Class A Shares or other securities, properties or rights.
6.4 Notice to Holder.
6.4.1 Adjustment to Exercise Price. Whenever the Exercise Price is adjusted pursuant to any provision of this Section 6, the Company shall promptly provide the Holder with a notice setting forth the Exercise Price after such adjustment and any resulting adjustment to the number of Shares and setting forth a brief statement of the facts requiring such adjustment.
6.4.2 Notice to Allow Exercise by Holder. If (A) the Company shall declare a dividend (or any other distribution in whatever form) on the Shares, (B) the Company shall declare a special nonrecurring cash dividend on or a redemption of the Shares, (C) the Company shall authorize the granting to all holders of the Shares rights or warrants to subscribe for or purchase any shares of capital stock of any class or of any rights, (D) the approval of any shareholders of the Company shall be required in connection with any reclassification of the Shares, any consolidation or merger to which the Company is a party, any sale or transfer of all or substantially all of the assets of the Company, or any compulsory share exchange whereby the Shares are converted into other securities, cash or property, or (E) the Company shall authorize the voluntary or involuntary dissolution, liquidation or winding up of the affairs of the Company, then, in each case, the Company shall provide the Holder with, at least ten (10) days prior to the applicable record or effective date hereinafter specified, a notice stating (x) the date on which a record is to be taken for the purpose of such dividend, distribution, redemption, rights or warrants, or if a record is not to be taken, the date as of which the holders of the Shares of record to be entitled to such dividend, distributions, redemption, rights or warrants are to be determined or (y) the date on which such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange is expected to become effective or close, and the date as of which it is expected that holders of the Shares of record shall be entitled to exchange their Shares for securities, cash or other property deliverable upon such reclassification, consolidation, merger, sale, transfer or share exchange; provided that the failure to provide such notice or any defect therein or in the provision thereof shall not affect the validity of the corporate action required to be specified in such notice. The Holder shall remain entitled to exercise this Purchaser’s Warrant during the period commencing on the date of such notice to the effective date of the event triggering such notice except as may otherwise be expressly set forth herein. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no notice need be given to the Holder if the Company makes a public announcement of the applicable event via nationally distributed press release or via a publicly available and legally compliant filing with the Commission.

SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT
THIS SHARE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”) is made on 3 September 2026
AMONG:
(1) BUUU GROUP LIMITED, a company incorporated in the British Virgin Islands whose Class A ordinary shares are listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market (ticker: BUUU), with its registered office at Vistra Corporate Services Centre, Wickhams Cay II, Road Town, Tortola VG1110, BVI (the “Buyer”);
(2) DEEDTECH INC., an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands (“CAY-3”), being (upon completion of the Restructuring) the legal and beneficial owner of the entire issued share capital of the Company (the “Seller”); and
(3) MR. WANG BIN, holder of passport no. [*], of [*] (the “Founder”), who joins this Agreement as a party for the purposes of, and to the extent of his obligations and liabilities under, Clauses 8.3, 8.6 to 8.8, Article 11 (to the extent expressed to apply to him), Clause 13.4, Article 15 (in respect of the joint and several liabilities specified therein), Article 16 and Article 17,
(each a “Party” and together the “Parties”).
RECITALS:
(A) BrightRay Science Inc. (“CAY-2”) is an exempted company incorporated in the Cayman Islands with company number 403860, whose registered office is at Sertus Chambers, Governors Square, Suite # 5-204, 23 Lime Tree Bay Avenue, P.O. Box 2547, Grand Cayman, KY1-1104, Cayman Islands (the “Company”). The Company, together with its subsidiaries, is referred to as the “Target Group”. The corporate structure of the Seller and the Target Group, after giving effect to the Restructuring, is set out in Schedule 1.
(B) The Seller has agreed to sell, and the Buyer has agreed to purchase, the entire issued share capital of the Company in two parts — the Initial Sale Shares (sixty per cent (60%)) purchased at Closing, and the Option Shares (the remaining forty per cent (40%)) subject to the Call Option granted to the Buyer under Clause 2.4 — on the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement.
(C) The consideration for the Sale Shares is payable entirely in Class A Shares of the Buyer at a fixed issue price of US$20.00 per share, and is determined and adjusted by reference to the cumulative audited net profit of the Target Group over the Performance Period, up to a maximum aggregate consideration of US$800,000,000 (inclusive of the consideration for the Option Shares), on the terms set out in this Agreement. The initial consideration shall be US$40,000,000, payable as Closing Issuance Shares, valued at a fixed price of US$20.00 per share. The deferred portion of the consideration will be evidenced at Closing by a non-negotiable promissory note issued by the Buyer to the Seller (the P-Note), settled solely in Class A Shares in accordance with this Agreement. The consideration is delivered in stages and not in a single issuance: Closing Issuance Shares at Closing, with the balance issuable only as earnout installments following each Fiscal Year’s audited results, released progressively in proportion to the cash actually collected from customers in respect of the Revenue of the relevant period, subject to the caps and the beneficial-ownership blocker provided herein. Each share issuance shall be subject to a beneficial ownership limitation of 19.99% of BUUU’s total outstanding shares (“Beneficial Ownership Limitation”). The consideration under this Agreement is for the Initial Sale Shares (sixty per cent (60%)) only — the consideration for the Option Shares corresponds to forty per cent (40%) of the same performance-determined valuation, with its form of settlement and detailed terms to be set out in a separate definitive agreement upon exercise of the Call Option — and every issuance of Class A Shares under this Agreement is subject to the Beneficial Ownership Limitation at all times.

ARTICLE 2 — SALE AND PURCHASE
2.1 On the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Seller shall sell, and the Buyer shall purchase, the Initial Sale Shares at Closing, and, if and to the extent the Call Option is exercised, the Option Shares pursuant to Clause 2.4, in each case free from all Encumbrances and together with all rights attaching to them at Closing (including the right to all dividends and distributions declared or paid after Closing). The Seller covenants with the Buyer that, as at the Closing Date (and, in respect of each Option Completion, as at its completion date): (a) it has the full right, power and authority to sell and transfer the legal and beneficial ownership of the Sale Shares to the Buyer on the terms of this Agreement; (b) the Sale Shares are, and at Closing will be, free from all Encumbrances; and (c) it shall, at its own cost, do and execute all such further acts and documents as the Buyer may reasonably require to vest full legal and beneficial title to the Sale Shares in the Buyer.
2.2 The Seller waives, and shall procure the waiver of, all rights of pre-emption or similar rights in respect of the transfer of the Sale Shares.
2.3 The Buyer shall acquire the Initial Sale Shares in a single completion at Closing, and, upon any exercise of the Call Option, the relevant Option Shares in accordance with Clause 2.4. Neither Party is obliged to complete Closing unless the sale and purchase of all (and not some only) of the Initial Sale Shares is completed simultaneously.
2.4 Call Option over the Option Shares; right of first refusal. The Seller irrevocably grants to the Buyer an option (the “Call Option”) to purchase all or any of the Option Shares, free from all Encumbrances and together with all rights attaching to them, exercisable by the Buyer (or a wholly-owned subsidiary designated by it the identity of which shall be subject to acceptance by the Seller) by written notice on one or more occasions during the period of three (3) years from the Closing Date (the “Option Period”). The consideration for the Option Shares shall correspond to forty per cent (40%) of the Aggregate Consideration as determined under Articles 3 and 5 (being a base amount of US$160,000,000 and a maximum of US$320,000,000, subject to the same adjustments and determinations), but the form, manner and timing of its settlement are not fixed by this Agreement (and need not be in Class A Shares); each exercise is subject to the negotiation in good faith and execution of separate definitive share purchase agreements recording such settlement terms; if that definitive agreement has not been executed within 60 days after the exercise notice, the sale and purchase of the relevant Option Shares shall nonetheless complete at that consideration on the terms of this Agreement applied mutatis mutandis. Upon completion of each exercise (an “Option Completion”), Clauses 2.1 and 2.2, and the delivery obligations in Clause 7.2(a) to (c), apply mutatis mutandis, and the Warranties in Clauses 13.2(a) and (b) are repeated in respect of the Option Shares transferred. Right of first refusal: if the Seller receives a bona fide arm’s-length offer from a third party which it wishes to accept, the Seller shall first offer the relevant Option Shares to the Buyer by written notice setting out the identity of the offeror, the price and all material terms, and the Buyer may within 30 Business Days elect to purchase at that price and on those terms (or instead exercise the Call Option); only if and to the extent that the Buyer makes no such election within the aforesaid period or expresses that it chooses not to exercise the Call Option may the Seller complete the transfer to that offeror, within 90 days thereafter, at no lower price and on terms no more favourable to the offeror, and only if the offeror first agrees in writing to be bound by this Clause 2.4 where applicable (the transferred Option Shares remaining subject to the Call Option) and certifies in writing that it is not acting in concert with the Seller Side. During the Option Period and pending each Option Completion, both the Seller and the Buyer shall procure that the Company does not issue any shares or securities to any person, and that no Target Group company declares, makes or pays any dividend or other distribution (in cash or in kind) except as otherwise agreed in writing by and between the Seller and the Buyer; and the Seller shall not charge or otherwise Encumber any Option Shares, shall exercise all voting and other rights attaching to the Option Shares so as to give effect to (and not so as to frustrate) this Agreement, and shall, upon request, grant the Buyer an irrevocable proxy to vote the Option Shares on any matter necessary to implement this Agreement. If the Call Option is exercised in part only, it remains exercisable over the balance for the rest of the Option Period; if and to the extent not exercised, the Seller retains the relevant Option Shares subject to this Clause. The Call Option and this Clause 2.4 bind the Seller’s successors and any transferee of any interest in the Seller, and any purported transfer or Encumbrance not complying with this Clause 2.4 is void.

ARTICLE 3 — CONSIDERATION
3.1 Form of consideration; Base Consideration. Except in the case of Deferred Sale Shares, otherwise agreed in writing among the Parties, (a) the consideration for the Sale Shares is a US dollar amount (the Aggregate Consideration), satisfied solely by the issuance to the Seller of Class A Shares at the Fixed Issue Price, and (b) no cash consideration shall be payable, and no interest shall accrue on any part of the consideration. The Base Consideration is US$400,000,000 in exchange for 100% issued share capital of the Company. The Aggregate Consideration shall correspond to achievement of the Aggregate Guarantee, subject to adjustment in accordance with this Article 3 and in all cases to the Maximum Consideration. The Aggregate Consideration is the consideration for the entire issued share capital of the Company; at any time, the portion of the Aggregate Consideration due for settlement shall not exceed the Aggregate Consideration entitlement multiplied by the Transferred Percentage at that time (the “Attributable Consideration”), no further amount being payable under this Agreement in respect of the Option Shares which shall be subject to the separate definitive share purchase agreements contemplated by Clause 2.4. For the Initial Sale Shares this corresponds to a base amount of US$240,000,000 and a maximum of US$480,000,000 (sixty per cent (60%) of the Base Consideration and of the Maximum Consideration respectively). The consideration for the Option Shares corresponds to forty per cent (40%) of the Aggregate Consideration as determined under Articles 3 and 5 (a base amount of US$160,000,000 and a maximum of US$320,000,000), payable in a form and manner not fixed by this Agreement and to be set out in the separate definitive agreements contemplated by Clause 2.4.
3.2 Consideration adjustment formula. The Aggregate Consideration shall be determined by reference to Cumulative Counted Net Profit (“CCNP”) as finally determined pursuant to Article 5, as follows:
| (a) | if CCNP is positive: the Aggregate Consideration = the Base Consideration × (CCNP ÷ US$150,000,000); |
| (b) | in each case subject to the Maximum Consideration of US$800,000,000, corresponding to CCNP of US$300,000,000; and |
| (c) | if CCNP is zero or negative, the Aggregate Consideration shall be zero, subject to Clauses 3.2A (net asset floor), 4.1 (Closing Issuance) and 4.4 (true-up and surrender). |
3.2A Net asset floor. Notwithstanding Clause 3.2, but subject always to the Maximum Consideration, the Share Cap and Clause 3.3:
| (a) | the Aggregate Consideration entitlement determined as at the end of each Fiscal Year (and upon the final determination under Clause 4.3) shall not be less than the audited consolidated net assets of the Target Group as at such Fiscal Year end (the “NAV Floor”), being the total equity attributable to shareholders of the parent as shown in the Target Group’s consolidated financial statements audited in accordance with US GAAP; |
| (b) | in determining the NAV Floor there shall be excluded (i) any capital contribution or injection made, and (ii) any shareholder loan advanced or capitalised, in each case by or on behalf of the Buyer or its Affiliates after Closing; |
| (c) | the NAV Floor shall apply at each annual statement and settlement under Clauses 4.2 and 4.3 and at the final settlement and true-up under Clauses 4.3 and 4.4, provided that the NAV Floor shall in no event exceed the Base Consideration; and |
| (d) | the NAV Floor shall not limit or affect any right or remedy of the Buyer in respect of any Clawback Event under Clause 9.1(a) (fraud or wilful misrepresentation) or any claim under Article 15 in respect of fraud. |
3.3 Settlement in shares; Share Cap; rounding. The Aggregate Consideration (and each portion thereof falling due for settlement) shall be settled by the issuance of the number of Class A Shares equal to the relevant US dollar amount divided by the Fixed Issue Price, rounded down to the nearest whole Class A Share; no fractional shares shall be issued and no payment shall be made in lieu of fractions. Notwithstanding any other provision, the aggregate number of Class A Shares issuable under this Agreement shall in no event exceed: (i) in respect of the Base Consideration tier, the number of Class A Shares corresponding, at the Fixed Issue Price, to the Base Consideration multiplied by the Transferred Percentage — being 12,000,000 Class A Shares (US$400,000,000 × 60% ÷ US$20.00), comprising the 2,000,000 Closing Issuance shares and up to 10,000,000 Earnout Shares (as defined in Clause 4.2A) issuable only in instalments, as and when both earned by reference to Net Profit and collected in proportion to customer receipts in accordance with Clauses 4.2 and 4.2A; and (ii) in aggregate, the Share Cap — in each case inclusive of the Closing Issuance, provided that any additional Class A Shares issuable pursuant to Clause 4.5A(c) shall be in addition to, and shall not count towards, the Share Cap or the Base Consideration tier limit. Where the value of Consideration Shares falls to be determined for any purpose of this Agreement, it shall be determined at the Fixed Issue Price.
Page 7
3.4 Cumulative Counted Net Profit. “Cumulative Counted Net Profit” as at the end of any Fiscal Year means the sum of the Net Profit (whether positive or negative, negative amounts being deducted in full) for each Fiscal Year of the Performance Period ended on or before such date, provided that such sum shall not exceed US$300,000,000 in aggregate across the entire Performance Period (being the Aggregate Guarantee × 2). The foregoing maximum applies to the cumulative sum and not to the Net Profit of any individual Fiscal Year. Any excess of the cumulative sum above such maximum shall be disregarded for the purpose of calculating the Aggregate Consideration at the end of the Performance Period and shall not be counted or carried forward after the end of the Performance Period.
3.5 No other consideration. The Seller shall not be entitled to any consideration other than the Consideration Shares determined under this Agreement.
3.6 Equitable Adjustment. If, between the date of this Agreement and the Final Settlement Date, the Buyer effects any subdivision, consolidation, stock split, reverse stock split, stock dividend, bonus issue, reclassification, recapitalisation, or other similar change to its outstanding Class A Shares (each, an “Adjustment Event”), then, notwithstanding the definition of “Fixed Issue Price” in Clause 1.1, the Fixed Issue Price, the Share Cap, the number of Consideration Shares (issued and to be issued), the Closing Issuance Shares, the face amount of the P-Note and the number of Class A Shares deliverable thereunder, and each numerical share threshold and cap in this Agreement (including in Articles 3, 4, 5, 9, 11 and 12 and in the Schedules) shall be adjusted proportionately so as to preserve, to the extent reasonably practicable, the economic entitlements and obligations of the Parties as if the Adjustment Event had not occurred. Any such adjustment shall take effect automatically upon the Adjustment Event becoming effective, without endorsement of, or any amendment to, the P-Note, and the Buyer shall within five (5) Business Days deliver to the Seller a certificate setting out the adjusted Fixed Issue Price, Share Cap, P-Note face amount and share numbers in reasonable detail. For the avoidance of doubt, the aggregate US dollar amounts of the Base Consideration, the Aggregate Guarantee and the Maximum Consideration shall not be adjusted by reason of an Adjustment Event. Any dispute over the adjustment shall be determined by the Target Auditor in accordance with Clause 5.5.
ARTICLE 4 — CLOSING ISSUANCE, ANNUAL EARNOUT ISSUANCES AND FINAL TRUE-UP
4.1 Closing Issuance. At Closing, the Buyer shall deliver the Closing Issuance (US$40,000,000, settled in 2,000,000 Class A Shares). The Closing Issuance shall be included in the Aggregate Consideration and shall be credited towards, and form part of, the aggregate Consideration Shares (such shares, the “Closing Issuance Shares”). Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Closing Issuance Shares shall not be subject to surrender or cancellation, save upon a Clawback Event under Clause 9.1(a) (fraud or wilful misrepresentation), in respect of which Article 9 applies in full; in lieu thereof, the release of the Closing Issuance Shares from transfer restrictions is subject to the performance-based release condition in Clause 12.3A.
4.2 Annual earnout eligibility. On each Annual Settlement Date there shall be determined (but not thereby issued, subject to Clause 4.8, to Clause 4.9 (Ownership Blocker) and to the Share Cap and Base Consideration tier limit in Clause 3.3) the number of Class A Shares that has become eligible for issuance in respect of the most recently completed Fiscal Year (the “Eligible Earnout Shares” for that Fiscal Year), being a number equal to:
| (a) | the number of Class A Shares corresponding, at the Fixed Issue Price, to the Attributable Consideration — being the Aggregate Consideration computed under Clause 3.2 by reference to Cumulative Counted Net Profit as at the end of the most recently completed Fiscal Year, multiplied by the Transferred Percentage as at the relevant Annual Settlement Date; minus |
| (b) | the aggregate of (i) the Closing Issuance and (ii) all Eligible Earnout Shares previously determined under this Clause 4.2 (whether or not yet issued under Clause 4.2A). |
For the purposes of this Clause 4.2, the rounding-down convention in Clause 3.3 shall be applied to the amount in sub-paragraph (a) before the deduction in sub-paragraph (b) is made. If the resulting number is zero or negative, the Eligible Earnout Shares for that Fiscal Year shall be zero and no shares shall be issued in respect of that determination, and no shares shall be surrendered before the Final Settlement Date except pursuant to Article 9.
Page 8
4.2A Collection-based issuance of Earnout Shares. The Eligible Earnout Shares for a Fiscal Year shall not be issued in a single issuance: they shall be issued in instalments, in proportion to the cash actually collected in respect of the Revenue of that Fiscal Year, as follows: (a) for each Fiscal Year, the “Collection Ratio” as at any date means A ÷ B (capped at one (1)), where “A” is the aggregate amount of cash actually received by the Target Group on or before that date from the relevant customers in payment of Revenue recognised in that Fiscal Year (without any direct or indirect funding, financing or round-tripping by or on behalf of any Target Group company, the Seller, the Founder or any of their respective Affiliates), and “B” is the total consolidated revenue of the Target Group recognised in that Fiscal Year (“Revenue”), in each case determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP consistently applied; (b) on the Annual Settlement Date for each Fiscal Year, the Buyer shall issue to the Seller (each issuance under this Clause 4.2A, an “Earnout Issuance”, and the Class A Shares so issued, “Earnout Shares”) a number of Class A Shares equal to the Eligible Earnout Shares for that Fiscal Year multiplied by the Collection Ratio for that Fiscal Year as at the Fiscal Year end, as stated in the Performance Certificate; (c) thereafter, within ten (10) Business Days after each 30 June and 31 December (each a “Collection Measurement Date”), the Buyer shall issue the further number of Class A Shares (if any) equal to the Eligible Earnout Shares for each prior Fiscal Year multiplied by the updated Collection Ratio for that Fiscal Year as at that Collection Measurement Date, minus the Earnout Shares previously issued in respect of that Fiscal Year, until the Collection Ratio for that Fiscal Year reaches one (1); (d) the Seller and the Founder shall deliver, within 20 Business Days after each Fiscal Year end and each Collection Measurement Date, a certificate setting out the Revenue, the collections and the resulting Collection Ratio for each open Fiscal Year, verified by the Target Auditor by way of agreed-upon procedures, and Clause 5.5 applies to any dispute; (e) payments received from a customer shall be attributed to the invoice designated by that customer or, absent designation, to that customer’s oldest outstanding invoice; and (f) no delay in issuance resulting from the operation of this Clause 4.2A shall constitute a failure to issue Consideration Shares when due for the purposes of Clause 4.5A(c) or Clause 4.5B(a), and no uplift, interest or compensation shall accrue in respect of it. For the avoidance of doubt, eligibility (determined by reference to Net Profit) and issuance (paced by collections) are cumulative conditions, and every issuance under this Clause 4.2A remains subject to Clause 4.9 (Ownership Blocker). For the purpose of foregoing, “cash actually received” shall also include any amount received by way of set-off, credit, payment by or on behalf of the relevant customer, proceeds of any bona fide sale or factoring of the relevant receivable, or any other form of satisfaction or discharge of the relevant payment obligation, in each case to the extent of the value actually realised by the Target Group.
4.2B Buyer’s Obligation in terms of Collection. The Buyer shall, and shall procure that each Target Group company shall, use commercially reasonable efforts consistent with past practice to collect all accounts receivable relating to Revenue recognised during the Performance Period. The Buyer shall cooperate with the Seller and the Target Group and shall use commercially reasonable means to assist their collection efforts, and shall not take or omit to take any action with the purpose of avoiding, reducing or delaying any Earnout Issuance. Any amount that would have been collected but for any breach by the Buyer of its obligations under this Clause 4.2B, or that is waived, compromised, set off, assigned, transferred or otherwise dealt with by or at the direction of the Buyer other than in the ordinary course of business and consistent with past practice, shall be deemed to have been collected in cash for the purposes of calculating the relevant Collection Ratio.
4.3 Final statistics and settlement. Following the audit for FY2029 and before any issuance on the Final Settlement Date, the Parties shall procure the final computation of Cumulative Counted Net Profit for the entire Performance Period and the final Aggregate Consideration under Clause 3.2. Subject to Clause 4.8, on the Final Settlement Date there shall be determined the number of Class A Shares corresponding, at the Fixed Issue Price, to the final Attributable Consideration (the final Aggregate Consideration multiplied by the Transferred Percentage), minus the aggregate of the Closing Issuance and all Eligible Earnout Shares previously determined; the resulting number shall constitute additional Eligible Earnout Shares, attributed to the Fiscal Years to which the underlying Revenue relates, and shall be issued in accordance with Clause 4.2A (whose collection-based instalments continue after the Final Settlement Date), subject to any set-off pursuant to Article 10.
Page 9
4.4 True-up and surrender. If the aggregate number of Consideration Shares previously issued (including the Closing Issuance) exceeds the number of Class A Shares corresponding, at the Fixed Issue Price, to the final Attributable Consideration determined under Clause 4.3, the Seller shall, within ten (10) Business Days of the final determination, surrender to the Buyer for cancellation, for nil consideration, such number of Class A Shares as equals the excess — excluding, save upon a Clawback Event under Clause 9.1(a), the Closing Issuance Shares, which shall not be surrendered and shall instead remain subject to the release condition in Clause 12.3A — and shall execute all documents and take all steps necessary to effect such surrender and cancellation. Pending surrender, the Seller shall not transfer, vote or exercise any rights in respect of the excess shares. If the Seller holds insufficient unrestricted Consideration Shares (other than the Closing Issuance Shares, with the exception under Clause 9.1(a)) to satisfy the surrender required by this Clause 4.4, the remaining shortfall shall not be extinguished: the Seller shall not be required to satisfy it in cash or by surrender of the Closing Issuance Shares (no matter whether the Closing Issuance Shares are subject to Lock-Up Periods or transfer restrictions) or by delivery of any Class A Shares acquired otherwise than pursuant to this Agreement, but shall surrender the balance of the required number of Class A Shares promptly upon, and from time to time as, Consideration Shares issued to the Seller pursuant to this Agreement (other than the Closing Issuance Shares, with the exception under Clause 9.1(a)) cease to be restricted or otherwise become available for surrender, until the surrender is satisfied in full. The obligation in this Clause 4.4 is an obligation to deliver shares and not to pay money, and the Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance of it. The surrender mechanism in this Clause 4.4 shall be the Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedy in respect of any overpayment resulting solely from the final determination of the Aggregate Consideration under Article 3, without prejudice to the Buyer’s rights in respect of fraud under Article 9 or any independently established claim under Article 15.
4.5 The P-Note. At Closing, the Buyer shall issue and deliver to the Seller the P-Note, with an initial face amount of US$200,000,000 (being the Base Consideration multiplied by the Transferred Percentage, less the Closing Issuance), as evidence of all or a portion of the Deferred Consideration. The P-Note:
| (a) | shall adjust automatically, without endorsement or further action, so that its face amount at all times equals the Attributable Consideration most recently determined under Article 3 (the Aggregate Consideration entitlement multiplied by the Transferred Percentage) less all consideration previously settled, subject to a maximum of aggregate settlements thereunder of the Maximum Consideration multiplied by the Transferred Percentage less the Closing Issuance and provided that the face amount shall be in no event below zero; each settlement under Clause 4.2 or 4.3 reduces (and each upward redetermination increases) its face amount accordingly; and shall be adjusted, together with the Fixed Issue Price and the number of Class A Shares deliverable thereunder, upon any Adjustment Event in accordance with Clause 3.6; |
| (b) | is unsecured and non-interest-bearing; is not a negotiable instrument; is subject to maturity and acceleration in accordance with Clauses 4.5A to 4.5C; and creates no obligation to pay cash in any circumstances, the Deferred Consideration being settled solely in Class A Shares at the Fixed Issue Price (including on maturity or upon any acceleration); |
| (c) | is not assignable or transferable by the Seller (any purported assignment or transfer being void); and |
| (d) | does not confer on the Seller any rights as a shareholder of the Buyer (including any voting, dividend, distribution, information or pre-emptive rights) in respect of any Class A Shares unless and until such shares are actually issued. |
Nothing in this Agreement shall be construed as granting the Seller any security convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Class B Shares or any security carrying more than one vote per share. The P-Note is subject in all respects to this Agreement, which prevails in the event of any conflict; upon completion of the final settlement (and any surrender under Clause 4.4), the P-Note shall be cancelled and returned to the Buyer.
4.5A P-Note maturity; settlement deadline. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement:
| (a) | the Buyer shall issue, and procure the registration in the name of the Seller of, all Consideration Shares falling due for settlement on each Annual Settlement Date and on the Final Settlement Date within ten (10) Business Days after the relevant settlement date, and the Consideration Shares so issued shall carry all rights and economic benefits (including dividends and other distributions) with effect from the relevant settlement date; |
Page 10
| (b) | the P-Note shall mature, and all Deferred Consideration then outstanding shall be settled in full, on the earlier of (i) the Final Settlement Date and (ii) 31 December 2029 (the “P-Note Maturity Date”), save only to the extent that settlement of a specific amount is suspended by reason of a bona fide dispute notified under Clause 5.5, an unsatisfied condition under Clause 4.8, the Ownership Blocker (Clause 4.9) or the collection-based issuance mechanics in Clause 4.2A, in which case (x) an amount suspended by reason of such a dispute or unsatisfied condition shall be settled within ten (10) Business Days after resolution of the dispute or satisfaction of the condition and, in any event, no later than the date falling six (6) months after the P-Note Maturity Date, and all Consideration Shares issued in settlement of such amount shall carry all rights and economic benefits with effect from the earlier of the Final Settlement Date and the P-Note Maturity Date, and (y) an amount suspended by reason of the Ownership Blocker shall remain outstanding under the P-Note and shall be settled as and when issuance is permitted or required under Clause 4.9, notwithstanding the P-Note Maturity Date, and the Class A Shares so issued shall carry rights and economic benefits only from their date of issue; and (z) an amount whose issuance is deferred by reason of the collection-based issuance mechanics in Clause 4.2A shall remain outstanding under the P-Note and shall be settled in accordance with Clause 4.2A as and when the relevant cash is actually collected, notwithstanding the Final Settlement Date or the P-Note Maturity Date, until the Collection Ratio for the relevant Fiscal Year reaches one (1). For the avoidance of doubt, cash collected after the end of the Performance Period, the Final Settlement Date or the P-Note Maturity Date shall be attributed to the Fiscal Year in which the relevant Revenue was recognised and shall be taken into account in determining the updated Collection Ratio for that Fiscal Year. |
| (c) | if any Consideration Shares required to be issued under this Agreement have not been issued and registered by the date falling twenty (20) Business Days after the date on which they fall due, then, without prejudice to Clause 4.5B: (i) the Seller shall be entitled to specific performance of the Buyer’s obligation to issue and register those Consideration Shares, and the Buyer acknowledges that damages would not be an adequate remedy and waives any defence that specific performance is not an appropriate remedy; and (ii) the number of Consideration Shares then outstanding shall be increased by 0.5% for each complete calendar month (pro-rated for any part month) during which the failure continues, up to a maximum aggregate increase of 10%, and the Buyer shall procure all corporate authorisations and exchange clearances necessary to issue such additional Class A Shares, which shall be in addition to, and shall not count towards, the Share Cap, and such Consideration Shares shall, when issued, carry all rights and economic benefits with effect from the date on which they fell due, as if issued and registered on that date; provided that no uplift under this Clause 4.5A(c) shall accrue in respect of any period of delay to the extent such delay is caused by (A) any action, inaction or delay of the Seller, the Founder or their respective advisers (including any failure to provide settlement instructions, wire details, KYC/AML documentation or tax certifications reasonably requested by the Buyer or its transfer agent with reasonable and sufficient advance notice, having regard to the nature and complexity of each request); (B) any review, clearance or comment process of Nasdaq, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, the U.S. Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, the transfer agent, DTC or any other Governmental Authority or self-regulatory organisation, provided that such review, clearance or comment process was not caused or materially contributed to by any breach, delay, omission or failure of the Buyer or any of its Affiliates, and that the Buyer has made all relevant submissions on a timely basis and kept the Seller reasonably informed of the progress thereof and the Buyer has used reasonable best efforts to respond to and resolve the same; (C) any injunction, restraining order or similar order of a court; or (D) any Force Majeure Event. For the avoidance of doubt, the uplift under this Clause 4.5A(c) shall accrue automatically until all of the relevant overdue Consideration Shares have been duly issued and registered. The occurrence or declaration of a Breach Event, or the exercise or non-exercise by the Seller of any right or remedy under Clause 4.5B, shall not suspend, limit or extinguish any uplift accrued or continuing to accrue under this Clause 4.5A(c), and no failure or delay by the Seller in declaring a Breach Event or exercising any such right or remedy shall constitute a waiver thereof. |
For the avoidance of doubt, without prejudice to the Seller’s entitlement to all economic benefits in respect of the Consideration Shares that should have been issued and registered under the name of the Seller, neither the P-Note nor any Deferred Consideration is settleable in cash in any circumstances, and nothing in this Clause 4.5A or in Clauses 4.5B or 4.5C entitles the Seller to require, or obliges the Buyer to make, any cash payment in settlement of the Deferred Consideration.
Page 11
4.5B Breach Events; acceleration. Each of the following is a “Breach Event”:
| (a) | the Buyer fails to issue any Consideration Shares when due under this Agreement and such failure is not remedied within ten (10) Business Days; |
| (b) | the Class A Shares cease to be listed and quoted on the Nasdaq Stock Market (or on such other exchange as is permitted under Clause 14.2), or trading in the Class A Shares is suspended or halted for more than thirty (30) consecutive trading days, or the Buyer breaches Clause 14.2; |
| (c) | the Buyer fails to obtain and maintain sufficient authorised but unissued Class A Shares, or the corporate authority, authorization from all competent Governmental Authorities, regulatory clearances or exchange approvals (including any Nasdaq Listing of Additional Shares clearance), required to issue all Consideration Shares up to the Share Cap, provided that no Breach Event shall arise under this sub-clause (c) for so long as (and not exceeding six (6) months in aggregate) the relevant failure arises from an action, review, determination or requirement of a Governmental Authority or securities exchange not caused by any breach by the Buyer of applicable law or exchange requirements, and the Buyer is diligently pursuing in good faith all authorisations, clearances and approvals required to issue the Consideration Shares; |
| (d) | the Buyer commits a material breach of any Buyer Warranty or of any of its covenants or undertakings under this Agreement or the P-Note and, if the breach is capable of remedy, fails to remedy it within twenty (20) Business Days after written notice from the Seller; |
| (e) | the Buyer repudiates, or evidences an intention to repudiate, this Agreement or the P-Note, or disputes the validity or enforceability of either; or |
| (f) | any insolvency event occurs in relation to the Buyer, including any winding-up, liquidation, dissolution, administration, judicial management, receivership, moratorium, scheme or composition with creditors, or the Buyer becomes, or is deemed under applicable law to be, unable to pay its debts as they fall due. |
Upon the occurrence of a Breach Event, the Seller may by written notice to the Buyer declare the P-Note immediately due, whereupon (i) the face amount of the P-Note shall be deemed to equal the greater of (A) the Attributable Consideration most recently determined under Article 3 and (B) the Base Consideration multiplied by the Transferred Percentage, in each case less all consideration previously settled; (ii) the Buyer shall, within ten (10) Business Days, issue and register in the name of the Seller the corresponding number of Class A Shares at the Fixed Issue Price, and the Seller shall be entitled to specific performance of that obligation; and (iii) all Lock-Up Periods and the transfer restrictions in Article 12 (including Clause 12.3A) shall lapse in respect of all Consideration Shares. The rights in this Clause 4.5B are without prejudice to any other right or remedy of the Seller, including the right to claim damages.
4.5C Liquidity Event acceleration. The Buyer shall give the Seller not less than fifteen (15) Business Days’ prior written notice of any proposed Liquidity Event. If a Liquidity Event occurs, or is to occur, at any time before the Final Settlement Date, the P-Note shall accelerate and become due immediately prior to (and conditional upon) completion of that Liquidity Event, whereupon the face amount of the P-Note shall be deemed to equal the greater of (a) the Attributable Consideration most recently determined under Article 3 and (b) the Base Consideration multiplied by the Transferred Percentage, in each case less all consideration previously settled, and the Buyer shall issue and register the corresponding number of Class A Shares at the Fixed Issue Price in sufficient time to enable the Seller to participate in the Liquidity Event on the same terms as, and pari passu with, all other holders of Class A Shares. The Buyer shall not enter into or complete any Liquidity Event unless the acquiring, surviving or successor entity assumes in full, by a written instrument delivered to the Seller, the Buyer’s obligations under this Agreement and the P-Note. Upon acceleration under this Clause 4.5C, all Lock-Up Periods and the transfer restrictions in Article 12 (including Clause 12.3A) shall lapse in respect of all Consideration Shares.
4.6 Status of Consideration Shares. All Consideration Shares shall, when issued, be duly authorised, validly issued, fully paid and non-assessable Class A Shares, free from all Encumbrances (other than restrictions under applicable securities laws, the Lock-Up Undertakings and this Agreement), ranking pari passu with the then-outstanding Class A Shares.
Page 12
4.7 Exchange processes. Each issuance of Consideration Shares is subject to the prior submission by the Buyer of a Listing of Additional Shares notification to Nasdaq covering the full programme of issuances contemplated by this Agreement (up to the Share Cap), disclosing that the Closing Issuance is limited to 2,000,000 Class A Shares and that all further Class A Shares are issuable only in earnout instalments, as and when both earned by reference to Net Profit and collected in proportion to customer receipts, and the completion of Nasdaq’s review process without objection. The Buyer shall make such submission no later than fifteen (15) days prior to the Closing Issuance and shall use reasonable best efforts to maintain its effectiveness for all subsequent issuances.
4.8 Conditions to Deferred Consideration. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Buyer shall have no obligation to issue any Consideration Shares after the Closing Issuance (whether under the P-Note or otherwise) unless and until:
| (a) | the transfer and registration of all Core Trade Marks has been completed in accordance with Clause 8.6(a); and |
| (b) | each IP Licence required under Clause 8.6(b) has been executed and, where applicable, recorded. |
Any delay in settlement resulting from non-satisfaction of this Clause 4.8 shall not give rise to any claim, interest or compensation against the Buyer, and shall not extend or shorten any Lock-Up Period.
For the purposes of this Clause 4.8, the transfer and registration of a Core Trade Mark, or the recording of an IP Licence, shall be deemed completed once the relevant transfer, assignment or licence instrument has been duly executed by all relevant parties and an application for the relevant registration or recordal has been submitted to the competent Governmental Authority, together with all documents and fees required at the time of submission. Any delay by a Governmental Authority in processing or completing such registration or recordal thereafter shall not prevent, suspend or delay the issuance or settlement of any Deferred Consideration, provided that the Seller and the Founder continue to use reasonable best efforts to procure its completion and promptly respond to any reasonable request or requirement of the relevant Governmental Authority.
Pending completion of any remedial action in respect of an omitted item of Core IP as provided in Clause 8.6A, the Buyer may suspend only such portion of the Deferred Consideration as is reasonably proportionate to the materiality and reasonably anticipated adverse effect of that omitted item, and shall issue and settle all unaffected portions of the Deferred Consideration when due.
4.9 Ownership Blocker; queued settlement. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement or the P-Note: (a) no Consideration Shares shall be issued or delivered to the extent that, after giving effect to the issuance or delivery, the Seller Side would beneficially own, in aggregate, more than 19.99% of the total number of shares of the Buyer then outstanding (or more than 19.99% of the total voting power of the Buyer then outstanding); (b) if and to the extent that any issuance falling due on any settlement date cannot be effected by reason of this Clause 4.9, the affected amount (a “Queued Entitlement”) shall remain outstanding under the P-Note and shall be issued automatically, in whole or in part, as and when headroom becomes available (including as a result of dispositions by the Seller Side or an increase in the number of shares of the Buyer outstanding); (c) a Queued Entitlement shall not constitute a failure to issue when due for the purposes of Clauses 4.5A(c) and 4.5B(a), and no uplift, interest or compensation shall accrue in respect of it, in each case for so long as, and to the extent that, the delay results from this Clause 4.9 while the Seller Side holds Class A Shares whose disposal would create sufficient headroom; (d) this Clause 4.9 may not be amended, and compliance with it may not be waived, except in compliance with applicable Nasdaq rules. The Seller shall, and shall procure that each member of the Seller Side shall, provide such information regarding beneficial ownership as the Buyer reasonably requests to administer this Clause 4.9; and (e) The Buyer shall, upon the reasonable written request of the Seller, promptly provide, and shall use reasonable best efforts to procure that its transfer agent and other relevant service providers promptly provide, all cooperation reasonably necessary to facilitate the lawful creation of headroom under this Clause 4.9, including in connection with any lawful transfer or disposition by any member of the Seller Side of Class A Shares, the removal of any legend or stop-transfer instruction when the applicable requirements for such removal have been satisfied, the provision of customary issuer representations and instructions, and the making of any filing, notification or application required of the Buyer, in each case subject to applicable laws, Nasdaq rules and the express transfer restrictions set out in this Agreement. The Buyer shall not, and shall procure that its Affiliates shall not, take or omit to take any action with the purpose of preventing, obstructing or delaying the creation or availability of headroom, or prevent or unreasonably delay any lawful transfer or disposition of Class A Shares by a member of the Seller Side that would create headroom. Once headroom becomes available, the Buyer shall promptly, and in any event within ten (10) Business Days after becoming aware thereof or receiving written notice thereof from the Seller, issue and register the applicable portion of the Queued Entitlement in accordance with item (b) hereof.

ARTICLE 5 — PROFIT GUARANTEE; DETERMINATION OF NET PROFIT
5.1 Profit Guarantee. The Seller guarantees to the Buyer that the cumulative Net Profit of the Target Group for the Performance Period shall be not less than US$150,000,000 (the Aggregate Guarantee). The sole and exclusive consequences of any shortfall in the Aggregate Guarantee are the adjustment of the consideration pursuant to Article 3 and, where applicable, the remedies in Article 9 — the Parties acknowledging that the consideration adjustment mechanism is the agreed and proportionate remedy for underperformance.
5.2 Net Profit. “Net Profit” means, for each Fiscal Year, the consolidated net profit after tax (excluding other income and expenses) of the Target Group for such Fiscal Year determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP applied on a consistent basis, as shown in the consolidated financial statements of the Target Group audited by the Target Auditor (PCAOB-registered). In determining Net Profit for each Fiscal Year, the effect of every Related Party Transaction shall be eliminated or, where capable of restatement, restated onto arm’s length terms, so that Net Profit reflects only such results as would have arisen had all Related Party Transactions been entered into on arm’s length terms between independent parties dealing at arm’s length; accordingly, any revenue, income, gain, margin, cost, expense, fee, interest, rebate, discount, waiver, release, guarantee, transfer of assets at other than fair market value, or other benefit or detriment arising from or attributable to any Related Party Transaction which is not on arm’s length terms shall be disregarded in full. The Target Auditor shall determine and certify the adjustments required by this Clause 5.2, and the Seller and the Founder shall procure that full particulars of all Related Party Transactions are disclosed to the Target Auditor and the Buyer. For the avoidance of doubt, royalties and licence fees payable under the IP Licences shall be expensed in accordance with U.S. GAAP in the ordinary way. Licence fees payable under the IP Licences, having been determined on an arm’s length, fair market value basis and confirmed by the Buyer under Clause 8.6(b), shall not be subject to restatement or elimination under this Clause 5.2. For the purposes of this Agreement, where the Parties cannot agree on “fair market value” of a transaction within fifteen (15) days, the value shall be determined by an independent third-party appraiser jointly appointed by the Buyer and the Seller, or, if no agreement on the appointment of such independent third-party appraiser can be reached within fifteen (15) days, the value of such transaction shall be determined by taking the average of the valuations provided by two independent third-party appraisers, with one appraiser selected by the Buyer and the other by the Seller.
5.3 Buyer interference adjustment. If and to the extent that the Net Profit of any Fiscal Year is adversely affected by (a) the Buyer’s unreasonable withholding or delay of any approval required under Clause 8.2 beyond the deemed-approval period therein, or (b) any decision, resolution, direction, intervention or other action by the Buyer or its Affiliates that (i) is outside the ordinary course of business of the Target Group, (ii) does not constitute the bona fide exercise of any right, power or discretion of the Buyer under this Agreement (including the governance rights in Article 11, the approval rights reserved under Clause 8.2 and the access rights in Clause 8.5), provided that no action taken in breach of Clause 8.3 shall be treated as the bona fide exercise of any such right, power or discretion for the purpose of this Clause 5.3, and (iii) where the Founder has been notified in advance of the relevant matter (with reasonable detail of its nature and anticipated impact), is objected to in writing by the Founder at the time or, where the Founder was not so notified, promptly after the Founder becomes aware of it, in each case specifying the direction or intervention objected to and the anticipated adverse effect, the resulting adverse effect (as determined by the Target Auditor, and to the extent directly attributable to the matter in question) shall be added back in determining Net Profit for the purposes of this Agreement.
5.4 Performance Certificate. Within 120 days after the end of each Fiscal Year, the Buyer shall procure that the Target Auditor completes the audit for such Fiscal Year, and shall deliver to the Seller a certificate (the “Performance Certificate”) setting out, with reasonable supporting detail: the Net Profit for such Fiscal Year (including any adjustment under Clause 5.3), the Cumulative Counted Net Profit, the Aggregate Consideration entitlement (interim or final, expressed in US dollars), the Revenue for such Fiscal Year and the collections and Collection Ratio as at the Fiscal Year end, the Eligible Earnout Shares for such Fiscal Year, and the number of Class A Shares proposed to be issued on the applicable Annual Settlement Date pursuant to Clause 4.2A.
5.5 Dispute resolution. The Seller may dispute a Performance Certificate by written notice within twenty (20) Business Days of receipt, specifying the disputed items and the basis of dispute in reasonable detail, failing which the Performance Certificate shall be final and binding. If the Parties fail to resolve a dispute within twenty (20) Business Days of the dispute notice, the disputed items (only) shall be referred to another independent U.S. GAAP auditor (“Independent Auditor”) having reputation, market position and expertise comparable to the Target Auditor, jointly appointed by the Parties (or, failing agreement within ten (10) Business Days, nominated at the written request of either Party by the President for the time being of the Institute of Singapore Chartered Accountants), for redetermination, and the Independent Auditor’s redetermination shall, save for manifest error, be final and binding on the Parties. This Clause is without prejudice to Article 22.
Page 14
5.6 Undisputed portion. Any portion of a settlement not affected by the disputed items shall be issued on the applicable settlement date notwithstanding the dispute (subject always to Clause 4.8).
5.7 Access. The Seller and its advisers and the Independent Auditor shall be afforded reasonable access, on reasonable notice and subject to customary confidentiality undertakings, to the working papers and personnel reasonably required to review each Performance Certificate.
5.8 Full fiscal year convention. The Parties acknowledge that FY2027 commenced on 1 July 2026. Net Profit for each Fiscal Year shall be measured on a full fiscal-year basis notwithstanding that Closing may occur after the commencement of FY2027, and no pro-ration or day-count adjustment shall apply.

If the conditions are not satisfied or waived by the Long Stop Date, either Party (not then in breach) may terminate this Agreement by notice, without prejudice to accrued rights. For the avoidance of doubt, obtaining the waivers and releases referred to in Clause 8.7 is not a condition to Closing, and the regime in Clauses 8.7 and 15.1 applies whether or not they are obtained.

The amount of any Leakage (together with reasonably incurred costs) shall be deducted, dollar for dollar, from the consideration (and set off against Deferred Consideration in accordance with Article 10), without prejudice to any other remedy.
8.5 Information and access. During the Performance Period, the Buyer, the Seller and their respective representatives shall have full access to the books, records, systems and personnel of the Target Group.
8.6 IP Consolidation (condition to Deferred Consideration). The Seller and the Founder shall procure that the Relevant Affiliates:
| (a) | in respect of the Core Trade Marks — as soon as practicable and in any event no later than 30 days after Closing (and in any event before the first settlement of any Deferred Consideration), transfer and assign each Core Trade Mark, in its entirety and free from any Encumbrance, to the Target Group entity designated by the Buyer, and complete all registrations and recordals of such transfers; and |
| (b) | in respect of all other Core IP (including patents, software copyrights, domain names and know-how) — grant to the Target Group entity designated by the Buyer a licence (each an “IP Licence”) that is: (i) royalty-bearing, with the licence fee determined on an arm’s-length, fair market value basis and subject to the Buyer’s confirmation, which confirmation shall be deemed as given if Buyer does not respond within five (5) Business Days upon receipt; (ii) exclusive as to all territories other than the jurisdiction of incorporation of the relevant Relevant Affiliate; (iii) sublicensable; (iv) for a term of 10 years from the date of grant; and (v) irrevocable during its term to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law — the specific transfer/licence designation and licence fee level for each item of Core IP being subject to the Buyer’s confirmation, which confirmation shall be deemed as given if Buyer does not respond within five (5) Business Days upon receipt, (together, the “IP Consolidation”). All Taxes, fees and costs arising from the IP Consolidation shall be borne by the Seller. If any Relevant Affiliate, any shareholder thereof or any third party raises any ownership dispute or claim in respect of any Core IP, the Seller and the Founder shall protect, defend and keep each Target Group company and the Buyer harmless from all losses arising therefrom except to the extent such losses are caused by or attributable to any breach, delay, omission or failure of the Buyer or its Affiliates. |
8.6A Core IP list to be provided by the Seller. The Seller shall, no later than fifteen (15) Business Days after the date of this Agreement (and in any event no later than ten (10) Business Days before the Closing Date), prepare and deliver to the Buyer, for inclusion in Schedule 5, a complete list of all Core IP specifying in respect of each item:
| (a) | its type (trade mark, patent, software copyright, domain name, know-how or other), its title, mark or identifier, and a description of it; |
| (b) | the registered proprietor or holder and, where different, the beneficial owner, and whether that person is a Relevant Affiliate; |
| (c) | each jurisdiction of registration or application, the registration or application number, the filing, grant and renewal dates and the current status; |
| (d) | all licences, security interests, co-ownership arrangements, Encumbrances, disputes and third-party claims affecting it; and |
| (e) | the proposed designation of the item as an item to be transferred under Clause 8.6(a) or licensed under Clause 8.6(b), together with the proposed licence fee basis for each licensed item. |
Page 18
The Seller warrants that the list so delivered is, and that Schedule 5 as agreed will be, true, accurate and complete, and that no intellectual property owned, used or held by the Seller, the Founder or any Relevant Affiliate which is used in, or necessary for, the business of the Target Group has been omitted in any material respect. If any such intellectual property is not listed in Schedule 5, it shall nevertheless be treated as Core IP and shall be transferred to the Target Group entity designated by the Buyer, at the Seller’s cost, promptly upon its discovery.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, any inadvertent omission from Schedule 5 of any intellectual property shall not constitute a Clawback Event or entitle the Buyer to suspend the issuance or settlement of all or any material portion of the Deferred Consideration if: (a) the omission was made in good faith and did not involve fraud, wilful misstatement, wilful misrepresentation or wilful concealment by or on behalf of the Seller or the Founder; (b) the omitted intellectual property is not, individually or together with any other omitted intellectual property, material to the business, operations or value of the Target Group taken as a whole; and (c) promptly after becoming aware of the omission, the Seller notifies the Buyer and takes all steps reasonably necessary to include such intellectual property in Schedule 5 and to effect the applicable transfer or licence in accordance with Clause 8.6.
8.7 Existing restrictive obligations; indemnity. The Seller and the Founder shall use best efforts to obtain, prior to Closing, all necessary waivers or releases of any existing non-competition, non-solicitation, exclusivity or similar restrictive obligations binding on the Seller, the Founder or any member of key management (including, for the avoidance of doubt, under the Shanghai Deheng Shareholders’ Agreement), such that the intended business, operations and hiring plans of the Target Group (including personnel to be hired after Closing) will not be restricted or adversely affected. Whether or not any such waiver or release is obtained, any dispute, claim, action or loss (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and defence costs) arising out of or in connection with any such existing obligation shall be borne by the Seller and the Founder, who shall be jointly and severally liable to indemnify the Buyer and the Target Group in full for all losses suffered as a result, and the Buyer may set off the corresponding amounts against the Deferred Consideration pursuant to Article 10.
8.8 Pre-Closing Tax and Restructuring liabilities. As between the Parties, the Seller and the Founder shall bear, jointly and severally, and be solely responsible for:
| (a) | all Tax liabilities (whether actual, contingent, potential, deferred or disputed) of the Target Group arising in, or attributable to, any period (or portion of a period) ending on or before the Closing Date, or arising by reference to any event, transaction, act, omission, profit, income, gain or receipt occurring, or deemed for Tax purposes to occur, on or before the Closing Date — including unreported, under-declared or underpaid Tax, any Tax arising from any pre-Closing Related Party Transaction, transfer pricing adjustment, permanent establishment, deemed disposal or withholding obligation, and all surcharges, penalties, interest and the costs of related disputes — whether or not disclosed to the Buyer, whether or not provided or reserved for in the accounts of the Target Group, and whenever assessed, claimed or pursued by any Tax authority after Closing; and, where any accounting or Tax period straddles the Closing Date, the Tax liability shall for this purpose be apportioned on the basis of a deemed accounting period ending on the Closing Date; |
| (b) | all Taxes, fees and costs arising from the Restructuring; and |
| (c) | all liabilities, obligations, costs and claims arising out of or in connection with the Restructuring or any other pre-Closing reorganisation of the Target Group, including any claim by any former direct or indirect holder of any interest in any Target Group company. |
The Seller and the Founder shall protect, defend and keep the Target Group company after Closing harmless from all losses caused by any claim, proceeding or enforcement action (including any action against management personally), and shall jointly and severally indemnify the Buyer and each Target Group company in full in respect of all of the foregoing pursuant to Clause 15.1. The Seller shall pay to the Buyer (or, at the Buyer’s direction, to the relevant Target Group company) the amount of any liability falling within this Clause 8.8 finally determined pursuant to Article 22 or agreed in writing by the Seller or the Founder within ten (10) Business Days after determination, failing which the Buyer may set off the amount against the Deferred Consideration in accordance with Article 10.
8.9 Notice of Adjustment Events. The Buyer shall give the Seller written notice of any Adjustment Event no later than five (5) Business Days prior to its effective date, together with the Buyer’s calculation of the resulting adjustments under Clause 3.6 (Equitable Adjustment).
8.10 No further advances to related parties. The Seller and the Founder shall procure that no Target Group company extends any new loan, advance or similar credit to, or acquires any receivable from, the Seller, the Founder or any of their respective Affiliates.

ARTICLE 9 — REVERSAL AND CLAWBACK
9.1 Clawback Events. Each of the following is a “Clawback Event”:
| (a) | any fraud, willful misstatement or misrepresentation of material facts by or on behalf of the Seller or the Founder in connection with this Agreement, the due diligence process, the financial statements or financial data, or any Performance Certificate, which, in the case of any such wilful misstatement or willful misrepresentation, is material in the context of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement; or |
| (b) | the audited Net Profit of the Target Group for any Fiscal Year in the Performance Period being negative. |
9.2 Consequences.
| (a) | Upon a Clawback Event under Clause 9.1(a) (fraud), the Buyer may terminate all further obligations to issue Consideration Shares, cancel the P-Note, require the Seller to surrender for cancellation, for nil consideration, all or part of the Consideration Shares previously issued, and claim damages, subject to Article 15. |
| (b) | Upon a Clawback Event under Clause 9.1(b) (negative year), the Buyer may suspend any pending issuance of Consideration Shares for the relevant Fiscal Year under the P-Note; the negative Net Profit shall be deducted in full in computing Cumulative Counted Net Profit, and the entitlement shall be finally determined and settled (with any excess surrendered) in accordance with Clauses 4.3 and 4.4 but subject always to the NAV Floor under Clause 3.2A — such suspension and formulaic recomputation being the sole consequences of Clause 9.1(b) absent fraud, the face amount of the P-Note adjusting automatically to reflect such recomputation. |
ARTICLE 10 — SET-OFF
10.1 The Buyer may set off, against any Deferred Consideration evidenced by the P-Note (whether or not then due for settlement), by automatic reduction of the face amount thereof, the amount of:
| (a) | any Leakage; |
| (b) | any amount finally determined (or agreed by the Seller or the Founder) to be due from the Seller or the Founder in respect of any claim under this Agreement, including under the Warranties, the indemnities or Clauses 8.6 to 8.8. |
Set-off shall be effected by reducing the number of Class A Shares issuable, valuing shares at the Fixed Issue Price.
10.2 The rights in this Article 10 are the Buyer’s primary (but not exclusive) route of recovery, and are without prejudice to any other right or remedy.
ARTICLE 11 — STANDSTILL; GOVERNANCE
11.1 Acknowledgment. The Parties acknowledge and intend that:
| (a) | all Consideration Shares are Class A Shares carrying one (1) vote per share; |
| (b) | the existing holders of Class B Shares will retain a majority of the total voting power of the Buyer at all times during and after the settlements contemplated hereby; and |
| (c) | the board of directors of the Buyer will continue to be controlled by its incumbent members (other than the addition of the nominees contemplated by Clause 11.3). |
Page 20
11.2 Control standstill; freedom to sell. From Closing until the date falling twelve (12) months after the Final Settlement Date (the “Standstill Period”), the Seller and the Founder shall not, and shall procure that their affiliates and any person acting in concert with them do not, directly or indirectly, without the prior written approval of the Buyer’s board:
| (a) | acquire, offer or agree to acquire any shares or voting securities of the Buyer (other than the Consideration Shares issued pursuant to this Agreement); or |
| (b) | act in concert or form a group (within the meaning of Section 13(d) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934) with any other holder of the Buyer’s securities for the purpose of acquiring, holding or voting securities of the Buyer, or solicit proxies or consents from the Buyer’s shareholders. |
For the avoidance of doubt, nothing in this Clause 11.2 or otherwise in this Agreement restricts the Seller from selling, transferring or otherwise disposing of any Consideration Shares following the expiry of the applicable Lock-Up Period, subject only to applicable securities laws (including resale in compliance with Rule 144 or another available exemption) and to Clause 4.4 and Article 9 in respect of any shares required to be surrendered. Upon the Seller’s written request, the Buyer shall and shall cause and procure all the Buyer’s Affiliates to promptly take all actions reasonably necessary for the Seller to exercise their right in the Consideration Shares and obtain the interest therein (including without limitation obtaining all available clearances, exemptions and other authorisations from Governmental Authorities for the free transfer and trading of the Consideration Shares, and providing all documents, materials and information for the Seller’s and Founder’s Tax declaration purpose).
11.3 Board and management. With effect from Closing:
| (a) | the Founder shall be appointed as an executive director of the Buyer and as Co-Chief Executive Officer of the Buyer; and |
| (b) | the Seller shall be entitled to nominate one (1) additional executive director to the board of the Buyer, in each case subject to customary suitability and regulatory requirements and the Buyer’s corporate governance policies. Save as aforesaid, neither the Seller nor the Founder shall have any right to nominate or appoint any director or observer, any veto or consent right over any action of the Buyer, or any committee membership except as determined by the Buyer’s board. |
11.4 Class B integrity. Nothing in this Agreement shall (a) entitle the Seller or the Founder to acquire or hold any Class B Shares or any security convertible into or exchangeable for Class B Shares, or (b) amend, or require the amendment of, the terms of the Class B Shares. The Buyer covenants that it shall not, in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, take any action that would disparately reduce or restrict the voting rights of existing holders of its publicly traded Class A Shares in contravention of Nasdaq Rule 5640.
11.5 Officer and director compliance. The Seller and the Founder shall procure that the Founder and any other nominee complies with all obligations applicable to directors and officers of the Buyer, including reporting obligations under Section 16(a) of the U.S. Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (to the extent applicable to foreign private issuers) and the Buyer’s insider trading and corporate governance policies.
ARTICLE 12 — SECURITIES LAW MATTERS; LOCK-UP
12.1 Private placement. The Consideration Shares will be issued without registration under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 (the “Securities Act”) in reliance on Regulation S and/or another available exemption. The Seller represents, warrants and covenants that:

| (b) | it will not engage in hedging transactions with respect to the Consideration Shares unless in compliance with the Securities Act; and |
| (c) | it will resell the Consideration Shares only pursuant to registration under the Securities Act or an available exemption (including Rule 144), and in compliance with the applicable distribution compliance period. |
Page 21
12.2 Legends. Each certificate or book-entry position for Consideration Shares shall bear customary restrictive legends referencing the Securities Act restrictions, the Lock-Up Undertakings and, where applicable, the surrender obligations under Clauses 4.4 and 9.2. The P-Note shall bear legends stating that it is non-negotiable and non-transferable, that it and the Class A Shares issuable on settlement thereof have not been registered under the Securities Act, and that it is subject in all respects to this Agreement. The Buyer shall be entitled at any time to instruct the transfer agent to refuse to process any transfer of Consideration Shares that has not been evidenced to the Buyer’s reasonable satisfaction to comply with Clause 12.3 and the applicable Lock-Up Undertaking, and the Seller consents to such stop-transfer instructions, provided that the Buyer shall duly perform its obligations under Clause 11.2 (freedom to sell). The restrictive legend on each Consideration Share shall include express reference to the transfer restrictions under Clause 12.3 during the applicable Lock-Up Period.
12.3 Lock-up. The Seller shall not, during the Lock-Up Period applicable to each tranche of Consideration Shares (being, for the Closing Issuance, the period until 31 October 2027 as extended (if applicable) in accordance with Clause 12.3A, and for each other tranche, twelve (12) months from issuance), directly or indirectly offer, sell, contract to sell, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of such shares or any interest therein, or enter into any swap or arrangement transferring the economic consequences of ownership, and shall deliver a Lock-Up Undertaking in the form of Schedule 4 on each issuance. The foregoing restriction shall be subject to the following exceptions: (a) a transfer to a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Seller (with “wholly-owned” meaning 100% of the economic and voting interests, and excluding any nominee, trust or minority holder of any kind) which first delivers to the Buyer an undertaking identical to this Clause 12.3 and a joinder to this Agreement as a “Seller” hereunder, jointly and severally liable with the transferor, in each case subject to the prior written consent of the Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (b) acceptance of a tender offer recommended by the Buyer’s board, subject to the prior written consent of the Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed);(c) using any or all of the Consideration Shares as collateral for financing; and (d) any other transfer of Consideration Shares (including any transfer to a third party that is not an affiliate of the Seller), subject in each case to the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent may be given, withheld, delayed or conditioned in the Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion. Any purported transfer in reliance on the foregoing exceptions that fails to comply with the conditions in this paragraph (including the receipt of the requisite Buyer consent) shall be void ab initio, and the Buyer shall be entitled to instruct the transfer agent to refuse to record any such purported transfer.
12.3A Performance-based release of Closing Issuance Shares. Notwithstanding Clause 12.3, the Closing Issuance Shares shall be released from the transfer restrictions under this Article 12 and the applicable Lock-Up Undertaking only as follows:
| (a) | no Closing Issuance Shares shall be released prior to 31 October 2027; |
| (b) | on the later of 31 October 2027 and the date on which the Performance Certificate for FY2027 becomes final and binding, there shall be released a number of Closing Issuance Shares equal to 2,000,000 × (Net Profit for FY2027 ÷ US$22,500,000), rounded down to the nearest whole share and capped at 2,000,000; |
| (c) | thereafter, upon each subsequent Performance Certificate becoming final and binding, additional Closing Issuance Shares shall be released so that the aggregate number of Closing Issuance Shares released under this Clause 12.3A equals 2,000,000 × (Cumulative Counted Net Profit ÷ US$22,500,000), rounded down to the nearest whole share and capped at 2,000,000 (and no release previously made shall be reversed by reason of any subsequent negative Net Profit); and |
| (d) | any Closing Issuance Shares not released upon completion of the final settlement (and any surrender) under Clauses 4.3 and 4.4 shall remain subject to the transfer restrictions of this Article 12 and shall not be released until six (6) months after the end of FY2029, but shall not be subject to surrender or cancellation save upon a Clawback Event under Clause 9.1(a). |
12.4 No registration rights. The Buyer grants no registration rights in respect of the Consideration Shares. The Seller acknowledges that resales will be subject to Rule 144 (including, if applicable, Rule 144(i)) and that the Buyer makes no assurance as to the availability of any exemption.
12.5 Ownership reporting. The Seller acknowledges its obligation to file and maintain a Schedule 13D (or 13G, as applicable) upon crossing the applicable ownership thresholds, and to make all other filings required under applicable securities laws.

The aggregate liability of the Seller and the Founder under or in connection with this Agreement (including under the Warranties, the indemnities and this Article 15, and whether in contract, tort or otherwise) shall not in any circumstances exceed one hundred per cent (100%) of the Aggregate Consideration actually received by the Seller (Consideration Shares being valued for this purpose at the Fixed Issue Price), provided that the cap in this Clause 15.3 shall not apply to, and there shall be no limit on, liability arising out of fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation or wilful concealment of material facts on the part of the Seller or the Founder. The de minimis and basket do not apply to claims under Clause 15.1(b) or (c).
15.4 Manner of recovery. Recovery shall be effected first by set-off against Deferred Consideration pursuant to Article 10; thereafter, liability may be satisfied, at the election of the Buyer, by surrender for cancellation of Consideration Shares (valued at the Fixed Issue Price) or in cash.
15.5 Standard limitations. The following limitations apply to any claim against the Seller or the Founder under this Agreement:
| (a) | no liability shall arise in respect of any matter fairly disclosed in the Disclosure Schedule, or specifically provided, reserved or noted against in the audited accounts of the Target Group; |
| (b) | the Buyer shall not be entitled to recover more than once in respect of the same loss, whether under the Warranties, the indemnities, Article 9, Article 10 or otherwise (no double recovery); |
| (c) | the Buyer shall take, and shall procure that each Target Group company takes, reasonable steps to mitigate any loss; |
| (d) | no liability shall arise in respect of any contingent liability unless and until it becomes an actual liability which is due and payable; |
| (e) | any amount actually recovered from a third party or under any policy of insurance in respect of the same loss shall reduce the Seller’s liability or, if recovered after payment, shall be repaid to the Seller to the extent of that payment (less reasonable costs of recovery); |
| (f) | no liability shall arise to the extent that the loss arises from any voluntary act or omission of the Buyer or any Target Group company after Closing outside the ordinary course of business, or from any change after the date of this Agreement in any law, regulation, accounting policy or practice, or rate of Tax (or in the interpretation of any of them) having retrospective effect; |
| (g) | the Seller shall have no liability for any indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, goodwill or reputation, except to the extent the same forms part of a liability actually incurred to, or a claim actually made by, a third party; and |
| (h) | the Buyer shall give the Seller written notice of, and (subject to the Seller indemnifying the Buyer and the Target Group against reasonable costs) shall permit the Seller to participate in the conduct of, any third-party claim which may give rise to a claim under this Agreement, and shall not admit, compromise or settle any such third-party claim without the Seller’s prior written consent (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed). |
Save in the case of fraud, the rights under this Article 15 and Articles 9 and 10 are the Buyer’s sole and exclusive remedies for Warranty claims. Nothing in this Agreement excludes or limits any liability which cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
ARTICLE 16 — RESTRICTIVE COVENANTS
16.1 Each of the Seller and the Founder undertakes (for itself/himself and on behalf of its/his affiliates) not to:
| (a) | for six (6) months after the later of (i) the date of termination or expiry of this Agreement and (ii) the date on which the relevant person ceases to be employed or engaged by the Target Group, engage or be interested in any business competing with the design, construction, installation, commissioning or EPC of data centres, within the Restricted Territory; and |
| (b) | for one (1) year after such date, solicit or entice away any employee, contractor, customer or supplier of the Target Group (other than counterparties located outside the Restricted Territory). |
Each covenant is separate and severable, and the Parties consider them reasonable to protect the goodwill of the Target Group acquired hereunder.
Page 27
ARTICLE 17 — RETENTION
17.1 The Founder shall enter into, and maintain in effect through 30 June 2029, an employment agreement with the Buyer or the Target Group in the agreed form (with duties consistent with his roles under Clause 11.3), and the Seller shall procure that each other Key Person (if any) does likewise with the Target Group.
ARTICLE 18 — TERMINATION
18.1 This Agreement may be terminated before Closing:
| (a) | by mutual written consent; |
| (b) | by either Party if Closing has not occurred by the Long Stop Date (provided the terminating Party is not in material breach); |

2. In respect of the [●] Class A Shares issued to the Seller on [●] (the “Relevant Shares”), the Seller irrevocably undertakes that, during the applicable Lock-Up Period (for the Closing Issuance, the period until 31 October 2027 as extended (if applicable) by the performance-based release condition in Clause 12.3A of the SPA; for any other tranche, twelve (12) months from its date of issuance), it will not, directly or indirectly: (a) offer, sell, contract to sell, lend or otherwise transfer or dispose of any Relevant Shares or any interest therein; (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement transferring, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of any Relevant Shares; or (c) publicly announce any intention to do any of the foregoing.
3. Exceptions: (a) a transfer to a direct or indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Seller (with “wholly-owned” meaning 100% of the economic and voting interests, with no nominee, trust or minority holder of any kind) which first delivers to the Buyer an undertaking identical to this one and a joinder to the SPA as a “Seller” thereunder, jointly and severally liable with the transferor, in each case subject to the prior written consent of the Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (b) acceptance of a tender offer recommended by the board of directors of the Buyer, subject to the prior written consent of the Buyer (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed); (c) using any or all of the Relevant Shares as collateral for bona fide financing; and (d) any other transfer of Relevant Shares (including any transfer to a third party that is not an affiliate of the Seller), subject in each case to the prior written consent of the Buyer, which consent may be given, withheld, delayed or conditioned in the Buyer’s sole and absolute discretion.

SCHEDULE 8 — FORM OF P-NOTE
NON-NEGOTIABLE, NON-TRANSFERABLE PROMISSORY NOTE
| Initial Face Amount: US$200,000,000 | Issue Date: [the Closing Date] |
1. Promise to deliver shares. For value received, BUUU GROUP LIMITED (the “Issuer”) promises to deliver to DEEDTECH INC. (the “Holder”) Class A ordinary shares of the Issuer at the Fixed Issue Price of US$20.00 per share, in settlement of the Deferred Consideration under the Share Purchase Agreement dated [●] 2026 among the Issuer, the Holder and Mr. Wang Bin (the “Agreement”), at the times, in the amounts and subject to the conditions set out in the Agreement.
2. Face amount; automatic adjustment. The face amount of this Note shall adjust automatically, without endorsement, presentment or further action, so that it equals at all times the Attributable Consideration most recently determined under Article 3 of the Agreement (the Aggregate Consideration entitlement multiplied by the Transferred Percentage) less all consideration previously settled, provided that the face amount shall in no event be less than zero. Aggregate settlements under this Note shall not exceed the Maximum Consideration under the Agreement multiplied by the Transferred Percentage, less the Closing Issuance — the base portion corresponding to up to 10,000,000 Class A Shares (US$200,000,000 at the Fixed Issue Price), issuable only in annual earnout instalments —, and, together with the Closing Issuance, shall not exceed the Maximum Consideration under the Agreement multiplied by the Transferred Percentage (the Share Cap applying to the aggregate number of Class A Shares), excluding any additional Class A Shares issuable pursuant to Clause 4.5A(c). The face amount may decrease to zero. The face amount of this Note, the Fixed Issue Price and the number of Class A Shares deliverable hereunder shall be adjusted proportionately, automatically and without endorsement, upon any Adjustment Event (including any share split, reverse share split, subdivision, consolidation, bonus issue, stock dividend, reclassification or recapitalisation), in accordance with Clause 3.6 of the Agreement. Any excess of consideration previously settled over the Aggregate Consideration entitlement shall be dealt with exclusively in accordance with Clause 4.4 of the Agreement and shall not give rise to any payment obligation under this Note.
3. No interest; no cash. This Note bears no interest. This Note creates no obligation to pay any amount in cash in any circumstances (including on maturity or upon any acceleration under Clauses 4.5A to 4.5C of the Agreement); the sole obligation of the Issuer is the issuance of Class A Shares in accordance with the Agreement.
4. Settlement. Each settlement pursuant to Clause 4.2 or 4.3 of the Agreement reduces the face amount of this Note by the amount settled. Settlement is subject to the conditions in Clause 4.8 of the Agreement and to the true-up, surrender, clawback and set-off provisions of the Agreement (including Clauses 4.4, 9 and 10, pursuant to which the face amount may be reduced by way of set-off). Any shortfall remaining after the application of the surrender mechanism under Clause 4.4 shall be dealt with exclusively in accordance with Clause 4.4 and shall not constitute any payment obligation of the Holder under this Note. Every issuance under this Note is further subject to the Ownership Blocker and the queued-settlement mechanics in Clause 4.9 of the Agreement, and is paced by the collection-based issuance mechanics in Clause 4.2A of the Agreement.
5. Non-negotiable; non-transferable. This Note is not a negotiable instrument. This Note and any rights hereunder may not be sold, assigned, transferred, charged or otherwise disposed of or encumbered by the Holder; any purported transfer or encumbrance is void.
6. Maturity; Breach Events; acceleration. This Note matures, and all Deferred Consideration evidenced hereby shall be settled in full, on the earlier of the Final Settlement Date and 31 December 2029, in accordance with Clause 4.5A of the Agreement. Upon a Breach Event or a Liquidity Event, this Note shall accelerate and become immediately due in accordance with Clauses 4.5B and 4.5C of the Agreement, and shall in every case be settled solely by the issuance of Class A Shares at the Fixed Issue Price and not in cash. No default interest, penalty or premium applies, other than the uplift expressly provided for in Clause 4.5A(c) of the Agreement.
7. No shareholder rights. This Note confers on the Holder no rights as a shareholder of the Issuer (including any voting, dividend, distribution, information or pre-emptive rights) unless and until Class A Shares are actually issued. This Note is not convertible into, or exercisable or exchangeable for, Class B Shares or any security carrying more than one vote per share.
8. Securities law. This Note and the Class A Shares issuable on settlement hereof have not been, and will not at issuance be, registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933, and are issued in reliance on exemptions therefrom; the Class A Shares are subject to the lock-up and transfer restrictions in the Agreement (including, in respect of the Closing Issuance Shares, Clause 12.3A).
9. Agreement prevails; cancellation. This Note is issued under, is subject in all respects to, and shall be read together with the Agreement; in the event of any conflict, the Agreement prevails. Upon completion of the final settlement (and any surrender) under the Agreement, this Note shall be cancelled and returned to the Issuer.
10. Governing law; arbitration. This Note and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with it are governed by the laws of Singapore, and Clause 22.2 (arbitration; SIAC) of the Agreement applies mutatis mutandis.

Exhibit 99.1
BUUU Group Limited Signs Definitive Agreement to Acquire Majority Stake in Brightray Science Inc. and Over US$60 Million of Private Placements, Making Industrialized AI Data Center Delivery Its Core Growth Business
Six-to-nine-month delivery — half the conventional timeline; 70MW in operation in Johor, Malaysia; pipeline expected to reach approximately 2GW. BUUU is concurrently relocating its headquarters to Singapore and signing over US$60 million of private placements
SINGAPORE, September 3, 2026 — BUUU Group Limited (Nasdaq: BUUU) (“BUUU” or the “Company”) today announced that it has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire a 60% equity interest in Brightray Science Inc. (“Brightray”), a provider of fully integrated, prefabricated modular data center solutions. Founded by Mr. Bin Wang and previously supported by Tencent-affiliated investors, Brightray will become a consolidated subsidiary of BUUU upon completion of the transaction. In conjunction with the acquisition, the Company intends to relocate its corporate headquarters to Singapore.
Transaction Overview. The purchase consideration will consist of (i) newly issued BUUU Class A Ordinary Shares valued at a fixed price of US$20.00 per share and (ii) a promissory note convertible into up to 10 million BUUU shares, subject to adjustment based on Brightray’s financial performance as measured by its audited annual net income following the closing and beneficial ownership limitation of 19.99% of BUUU’s total outstanding shares. Upon completion of the transaction, the sellers will retain a 40% ownership interest in Brightray, while BUUU will hold a call option to acquire the remaining interest during the three-year period following closing. The current management and board of BUUU are expected to remain in place, and Mr. Bin Wang will join BUUU as Executive Director and Co-Chief Executive Officer. The transaction remains subject to customary closing conditions and regulatory approvals.
Why Brightray
Delivery, not demand, is the AI build-out’s rate-limiting step. Data center demand is set to nearly triple by 2030, to some 219GW; NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang expects US$3–4 trillion of AI infrastructure spending this decade — yet build cycles stretch years, skilled labor is scarce, and a month’s delay on a 60MW facility costs some US$14.2 million. Brightray industrializes the data center: over 90% of a facility is built, integrated and tested in its factory, compressing delivery from 18–36 months to six to nine — worth around US$200 million of extra revenue-generating life on a single 50MW AI hall (McKinsey; JLL; SemiAnalysis). The industry is going modular; among 80-plus vendors, few have Brightray’s delivered hyperscale record.
NVIDIA’s Vera Rubin DSX reference design recasts the data center as one system built from pre-validated modular blocks — value accrues to whoever puts AI factories on the ground fastest. Brightray’s platform evolves with silicon: air-cooled facilities accept B300 racks today; field-delivered liquid-cooled modules interface with GB300 NVL; 300–600kW Rubin-generation architectures are under joint design, alongside 235kW systems such as AMD Helios. Post-completion, BUUU intends to pursue reference-architecture qualification with leading vendors.
Brightray at a Glance
Three delivery models on one prefabricated platform — FPD (full prefabrication: 15–50MW blocks in six to nine months), IPD (interior prefabrication, roughly 7–14 months) and CPD (containerized) — span 13.5kW air-cooled to 132–144kW liquid-cooled racks, backed by an ISO-certified 126,000-square-meter manufacturing base with 300MW annual capacity. The flagship delivery, the 120MW Sedenak Tech Park campus in Johor, Malaysia, runs 70MW for leading internet and cloud customers — the first 20MW built in eight months — with 50MW more scheduled; Johor is Asia Pacific’s largest data center market (Cushman & Wakefield).

Pipeline and Singapore. Management targets roughly 1GW of deliveries over the next three fiscal years; the pipeline is expected to reach approximately 2GW — about US$9 billion in potential contract value — across Malaysia, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia, the UAE and the United States, subject to final agreements; no financial guidance is given. The Singapore headquarters puts BUUU beside the region’s customers, talent and capital markets.
Private placements. Concurrently, BUUU has entered into private placement agreements with certain investors that, together with the potential cash exercise of outstanding warrants at US$10.00 per share, are expected to generate aggregate gross proceeds of more than US$60 million. The proceeds are intended to support capacity expansion and working capital requirements. The financings remain subject to customary closing conditions.
Management Commentary
BUUU management said: “In the AI era the bottleneck is not the chips but the buildings, power and cooling they cannot run without. Brightray turned that bottleneck into a manufacturable product and proved it at hyperscale. We are acquiring the rate-limiting step of the AI economy.”
Brightray Founder Mr. Bin Wang said: “We made the data center one of the fastest parts of AI instead of the slowest. With BUUU we gain the capital base and international standing to take this model global.”

Forward-Looking Statements and Disclaimers
This press release contains forward-looking statements, including statements regarding the completion and benefits of the proposed acquisition, the consideration issuable, the call option, Brightray’s pipeline and its conversion, delivery targets and capacity plans, reference-architecture qualification, and the headquarters relocation. Words like “may”, “will”, “expect” and “target” identify them. They are not guarantees of performance and involve risks and uncertainties — closing conditions, the target group’s performance (on which the consideration depends), integration — that could cause actual results to differ materially; see the “Risk Factors” in the Company’s SEC filings at www.sec.gov. The Company undertakes no obligation to update them except as law requires. The ~2GW pipeline (~US$9 billion, on a Brightray solution-scope contract-value basis) comprises signed projects, projects under final review and letters of intent — not all final contracts; delivery targets are management plans, not orders, backlog or guidance, and may not be realized. The profit guarantee is a contractual consideration-adjustment mechanism, not a forecast. Neither company has any agreement with NVIDIA Corporation, Advanced Micro Devices, Inc. or any other accelerator vendor regarding qualification or cooperation, with no assurance that qualification will be obtained. Third-party market data comes from public sources, not independently verified. This press release is not an offer to sell or a solicitation to buy securities; the consideration shares have not been registered under the U.S. Securities Act of 1933 and may not be offered or sold in the U.S. absent registration or an exemption. The private placements are signed, not completed; the anticipated proceeds assume PIPE completion and full cash warrant exercise, neither assured; those securities are likewise unregistered. NVIDIA, Vera Rubin, DSX, GB300 and B300 are trademarks of NVIDIA Corporation, and AMD and Helios of Advanced Micro Devices, Inc.; third-party references imply no affiliation or endorsement.
