As previously disclosed in our reports on Form 6-K furnished to the SEC on July 9, 2025, July 16, 2025, August 8, 2025, and December 31, 2025, Plutus Financial Group Limited entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger (the “Merger Agreement”) dated July 9, 2025 and an Amendment to the Merger Agreement (the “First Amendment to the Merger Agreement”) dated December 30, 2025 with Choco Up Group Holdings Limited. Coders Merger Sub Limited has acceded to and joined as a party to the Merger Agreement by way of a joinder dated August 8, 2025. Under the Merger Agreement and the First Amendment to the Merger Agreement, we will acquire all outstanding equity interests in Choco Up in exchange for a mixture of newly issued Class A ordinary shares and newly issued Class B ordinary shares in a transaction exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act of 1933. The closing of the transaction is subject to the satisfaction of certain closing conditions, including the Nasdaq approval. Section 9(b) of the Merger Agreement provides that the agreement may be terminated by the parties if the closing has not occurred by December 31, 2025 (the “Outside Date”). Under the First Amendment to the Merger Agreement, the Outside Date was extended to March 31, 2026.
On March 31, 2026, the parties executed the Second Amendment to the Merger Agreement to further extend the Outside Date to June 30, 2026. The Second Amendment to the Merger Agreement is furnished herewith as Exhibit 10.1.
