Item 1.01 Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

 

Second Amendment to Asset Purchase Agreement

 

As previously disclosed, on December 19, 2024, Datavault AI Inc. (the “Company”) entered into an asset purchase agreement, as amended by that certain amendment to the asset purchase agreement, dated as of December 30, 2024 (the “Asset Purchase Agreement”), with CompuSystems, Inc., a Texas corporation (“CSI”), pursuant to which the Company has agreed to purchase, assume and accept from CSI all of the rights, title and interests in, to and under the assets and interests used in the Acquired Business (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement), and products and services solely to the extent they utilize the Transferred Assets (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement), including CSI’s customer contracts, trademarks, and other intellectual property.

 

On February 25, 2025, the Company and CSI entered into a second amendment to the Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Second Amendment”). Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the Closing Cash Consideration (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) was reduced to $5,000,000 and as consideration, the parties agreed to a payment at Closing of $5,000,000 payable in the form of the convertible note (the “Initial Convertible Note”). The Company will issue the Initial Convertible Note in an aggregate principal amount of $5,000,000, due on the second anniversary of the closing (the “Maturity Date”). The Company agreed to pay interest to CSI on the aggregate unconverted and then outstanding principal amount of the Initial Convertible Note at the rate of ten percent (10%) per annum. If the Initial Convertible Note has not been satisfied in full within three (3) months after the closing date, then at CSI’s option, it shall be convertible to common stock of the Company, par value $0.0001 per share, in increments of $500,000, at a price of $1.14 per share. The Company shall also repay the principal amount and all accrued interest under the Initial Convertible Note in full, without a penalty, within three (3) business days after the Company raises an additional amount of capital totaling at least $15,000,000, after the Company shall have closed an initial offering or financings resulting in aggregate gross proceeds to the Company of at least $15,000,000, from one or more investors and/or financial institutions, by no later than March 31, 2025.

 

Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the parties agreed that the assets and rights acquired by CSI pursuant to the EventsPass APA (as defined in the Second Amendment) shall be Transferred Assets (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) under the Asset Purchase Agreement and the assumed liabilities under the EventsPass APA shall be Transferred Liabilities (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) under the Asset Purchase Agreement, including without limitation, any payments required as part of the earnout payment under the EventsPass APA. The parties also amended Exhibit B of the Asset Purchase Agreement to clarify that A4Safe-Related Items (as defined in the Second Amendment) are part of the Excluded Assets.

 

The parties agreed that the Company will inform the stockholders of the Company of the receipt of the Stockholder Consent (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) by preparing and filing with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”), within two (2) business days after the Company files its Annual Report on Form 10-K, an information statement with respect thereto. The parties further agreed that, at closing, the Company will deliver to CSI $500,000 as reimbursement of certain audit, review, reporting, legal, and other closing costs and expenses CSI has incurred and will incur associated with the closing.

 

Pursuant to the Second Amendment, the parties will instruct the Escrow Agent (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) to release the Breakup Fee (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) from the Escrow Account (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) and pay it to CSI within three (3) business days from the execution of the Second Amendment.

 

The parties also agreed to amend the definition of Outside Date (as defined in the Asset Purchase Agreement) to mean April 30, 2025, after which the Asset Purchase Agreement may be terminated by any party if the closing shall not have consummated on or prior to such Outside Date.

 

Except as stated above, the Second Amendment does not make any other substantive changes to the Asset Purchase Agreement.

 

A copy of the Second Amendment is filed with this Current Report on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K”) as Exhibit 2.1 and is incorporated herein by reference, and the foregoing description of the Second Amendment is qualified in its entirety by reference thereto.

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

This report contains certain forward-looking statements within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1955. These forward-looking statements include, without limitation, the Company’s expectations with respect to the proposed asset purchase, including statements regarding the benefits of the transaction, the anticipated timing of the transaction, the implied valuation of CSI, the products offered by CSI and the markets in which CSI operates, and the Company’s projected future results. Words such as “believe,” “project,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “intend,” “strategy,” “future,” “opportunity,” “plan,” “may,” “should,” “will,” “would,” “will be,” “will continue,” “will likely result,” and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are predictions, projections and other statements about future events that are based on current expectations and assumptions and, as a result, are subject to significant risks and uncertainties that could cause the actual results to differ materially from the expected results. Most of these factors are outside of the Company’s control and are difficult to predict. Factors that may cause actual future events to differ materially from the expected results, include, but are not limited to: (i) the risk that the transaction may not be completed in a timely manner or at all, which may adversely affect the price of the Company’s securities, (ii) the failure to satisfy the conditions to the consummation of the transaction, including the adoption of the Asset Purchase Agreement by the stockholders of the Company, (iii) the occurrence of any event, change or other circumstance that could give rise to the termination of the Asset Purchase Agreement, (iv) the effect of the announcement or pendency of the transaction on the Company’s business relationships, performance, and business generally, (v) the inability to recognize the anticipated benefits of the transaction, which may be affected by, among other things, competition and the ability of the post-combination company to grow and manage growth profitability and retain its key employees, (vi) costs related to the asset purchase, (vii) the outcome of any legal proceedings that may be instituted against the Company or CSI following the announcement of the proposed asset purchase, (viii) the ability to implement business plans, forecasts, and other expectations after the completion of the proposed asset purchase, and identify and realize additional opportunities, (ix) the risk of downturns and the possibility of rapid change in the highly competitive industries in which the Company and CSI operate, (x) the risk that any adverse changes in CSI’s relationships with buyer, sellers and distribution partners may adversely affect the predicted business, financial condition and results of operations, (xi) the risk that periods of rapid growth and expansion could place a significant strain on the Company’s resources, including its employee base, which could negatively impact the Company’s operating results, (xii) the risk that the Company may need to raise additional capital to execute its business plan, which many not be available on acceptable terms or at all, (xiii) the risk that third-parties suppliers and manufacturers are not able to fully and timely meet their obligations, and (xiv) the risk that the Company is unable to secure or protect its intellectual property. There may be additional risks that the Company presently do not know or that the Company currently believes are immaterial that could also cause results to differ from those contained in any forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. Readers are cautioned not to put undue reliance on forward-looking statements, and the Company assumes no obligation and do not intend to update or revise these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise.
