Entry into Material Definitive Agreement
As previously disclosed, on May 28, 2025, TROOPS, Inc. (the “Company”) entered into a stock purchase agreement (the “Stock Purchase Agreement”) with Wang & Lee Holdings, Inc. (the “Shareholder”), pursuant to which the Company issued and sold to the Shareholder 14,050,000 ordinary shares of the Company (the “Shares”) at a purchase price of US$0.90 per share, for an aggregate price of US$12,645,000 (the Consideration”). The Company and the Shareholder also entered into a lock-up agreement (the “Lock-Up Agreement”) in relation to the Agreement, pursuant to which the Shareholder agrees that during a ten year lock-up period from the closing date of the Agreement (the “Lock-Up Period”), without the prior written consent of the Company, the Shareholder would not (i) offer, pledge, sell, contract to sell, sell any option or contract to purchase, purchase any option or contract to sell, grant any option, right or warrant to purchase, lend, or otherwise transfer or dispose of, directly or indirectly, any Shares, now owned by the Shareholder or any affiliate of the Shareholder or with respect to which the Shareholder or any affiliate of the Shareholder has acquired the power of disposition; (b) enter into any swap or other arrangement that transfers to another, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of Shares, whether any such transaction is to be settled by delivery of Shares, in cash or otherwise; or (c) publicly disclose the intention to make any offer, sale, pledge or disposition, or to enter into any transaction, swap, hedge or other arrangement relating to any Shares. Pursuant to the Lock-Up Agreement, the Company shall also have an irrevocable exclusive option to repurchase the Shares (the “Repurchase Option”) prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period. On July 22, 2025, the Company entered into a stock repurchase agreement (the “Stock Repurchase Agreement”) with the Shareholder, pursuant to which the Shareholder agreed to sell, and the Company agreed to repurchase 4,400,000 Shares at a purchase price of US$0.90 per share, for a total purchase price of US$3,960,000 (the “Purchase Price”). The closing of the Stock Repurchase Agreement occurred on July 24, 2025.
On March 27, 2026, the Company and the Shareholder entered into an amendment to the Lock-up Agreement (the “Amendment Agreement”), whereby section 2 of the Lock-Up Agreement was amended and restated to: “Prior to the expiration of the Lock-Up Period, should the undersigned receive written consent of the Company to transfer any Lock-Up Securities (the “Transferable Securities”) pursuant to section 1 of this Agreement, such Transferable Securities shall no longer be subject to any Lock-Up restriction or Lock-Up Period, and shall not be subject to any Repurchase Option by the Company.”.
The form of the Amendment Agreement is filed as Exhibit 99.1 to this Form 6-K and incorporated herein by reference. The foregoing is only a brief description of the material terms of the Agreement, and does not purport to be a complete description of the rights and obligations of the parties thereunder and is qualified in its entirety by reference to such exhibit.
