(e) Termination and Mutual Release Agreement.
On August 24, 2026, the Company entered into a Termination and Mutual Release Agreement (the “Separation Agreement”) with CO-Finance and Mr. Attiya. The Separation Agreement terminates, effective as of August 23, 2026, the Consulting Agreement dated December 3, 2025 among the Company, CO-Finance and Mr. Attiya, pursuant to which CO-Finance provided the services of Mr. Attiya as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, and waives the ninety (90) day notice period provided for therein. The confidentiality, non-competition, non-solicitation and invention assignment undertaking attached as Schedule A to the Consulting Agreement, and specified other provisions of the Consulting Agreement, survive in accordance with their terms.
Under the Separation Agreement, the Company agreed to issue to Mr. Attiya 6,000 shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.0001 per share, under the Company’s 2025 Equity Incentive Plan. The shares will be issued in a transaction not involving any public offering, in reliance upon the exemption from registration provided by Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and/or Regulation S promulgated thereunder, and will constitute “restricted securities” within the meaning of Rule 144 thereunder.
The Separation Agreement also contains mutual releases of claims by the Company and by CO-Finance and Mr. Attiya, subject to specified exclusions; covenants regarding confidentiality of the terms of the Separation Agreement, non-disparagement and the return of Company property; a covenant of Mr. Attiya to cooperate with the Company in connection with the transition of his former responsibilities and any audit, litigation, investigation or regulatory matter relating to periods during which he served the Company; and a provision confirming that nothing in the Separation Agreement or in any related agreement or Company policy limits the ability of CO-Finance or Mr. Attiya to communicate with, or participate in any investigation or proceeding conducted by, any governmental agency or self-regulatory organization.
The foregoing description of the Separation Agreement does not purport to be complete and is subject to, and is qualified in its entirety by reference to, the full text of the Separation Agreement, which is attached as Exhibit 10.1 to this Current Report on Form 8-K and incorporated herein by reference.
