The transaction closed on August 28, 2025 (the “Closing Date”).

| ● | effective on the Closing Date of the Transaction, Nikhil Kalghatgi, Rishi Kapoor and Dean Clinton resigned from the Company’s board of directors and were replaced by Vikas Mittal and James DeAngelis (the “New Directors”); and |
| ● | effective following the Closing Date of the Transaction, and upon the expiration of certain waiting periods contemplated by the Purchase Agreement, the remaining current directors of the Company will resign and be replaced by individuals designated by Acquirer to be appointed by the New Directors to the Company’s board of directors. |
The Purchase Agreement contains customary representations and warranties of the parties, including, among others, with respect to corporate organization, corporate authority, and compliance with applicable laws. The representations and warranties of each party set forth in the Purchase Agreement were made solely for the benefit of the other parties to the Purchase Agreement, and investors are not third-party beneficiaries of the Purchase Agreement. In addition, such representations and warranties (i) are subject to materiality and other qualifications contained in the Purchase Agreement, which may differ from what may be viewed as material by investors, (ii) were made only as of the date of the Purchase Agreement or such other date as is specified in the Purchase Agreement, and (iii) may have been included in the Purchase Agreement for the purpose of allocating risk between the parties rather than establishing matters as facts. Accordingly, the Purchase Agreement is included with this filing only to provide investors with information regarding the terms of the Purchase Agreement, and not to provide investors with any other factual information regarding any of the parties or their respective businesses.
The foregoing description of the Purchase Agreement is not complete and is qualified in its entirety by reference to the text of such document, which is filed hereto as Exhibit 10.1, and which is incorporated herein by reference.
